Reviews of SBG Montana Martial Arts - Yoga - Gym Kalispell (Gym)

I've been attending Straight Blast Gym for almost four years. I have gained so much confidence and the community is phenomenal! All the coaches really take the time to encourage you in your strengths and help you in your weaknesses. There are classes for all ages. So come on in and sign up! You will be glad you did, I know I am!

I called to find out how much services cost for my child and they won't tell you. They make you come in to discuss pricing. What if it's too expensive for a working mother? I don't get to find that out until I tease my child with a lesson? Very unprofessional.

I just recently joined SBGi and I LOVE it! I have only taken a few classes, they are fun and you get an amazing workout! The staff and coaches are all very friendly and personable. I have had memberships to a few other different gyms in town and this is my favorite.

I had my first opportunity to visit SBG of Montana during the most recent Spring Camp. Wow! I was immediately impressed just walking through the doors and getting a complete gym tour. The facilities are top notch, super clean, and the flow/function of each training room is perfect. I remember my brother, Adam, and I saying that if we could tear our gym down we would use Travis and Kisa's as a model to rebuild. Upon meeting his staff I was impressed with how professional and courteous they all were. They aren't miserable kids just collecting a paycheck. You could tell they had an immense pride both for what they did and the gym itself. There are classes for every age, ability and fitness level. Whether you want to do some Primate Yoga, or learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at the top team in the state. I had an opportunity to watch some of the kids classes and they were all having a blast. The curriculum for kids at SBGi Montanta is awesome and his youth coaches are top notch. When my son is old enough to visit and train he will certainly be jumping in. Thank you Travis and Kisa for being gracious hosts. You are both wonderful people and it's evidenced by those with who keep your company.

Straight Blast Gym is different from the average gym. There is a sense of community and vibrancy when you walk in the door. Classes are challenging and fun. I laugh as hard as I workout here. There are classes for all levels. You can develop skills in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Striking, MMA, Yoga or join one of the stellar fitness programs. I highly recommend checking out the gym and The Yoga Room.

I've been going to Straight Blast for almost a year. This is one of the best decisions I've made in a very long time. Coaches at Straight Blast seem to take personal interest in each student's growth. The atmosphere at the gym is friendly and inviting. No matter your experience level SBGi will take you in as one of their own. As a member of Straight Blast, I feel I am part of a large family. This is just a great program, I can't imagine were I'd be today if I had never walked through the Straight Blast doors and signed up for classes.

You couldn't find a place with better coaches than SBG. Everyone is so kind and welcoming here. Signing up has been the best decision I've ever made, and nothing but good things have come out of my time spent training there.

An extremely warm and inviting group of coaches and instructors, that functions (and, more importantly, feels) both like a cohesive group of professionals, as well as friends and family. Especially pleasing to me is their ready acceptance of all colors and creeds; though I myself am Jewish, and the staff is aware, not a single member has made mention of their knowledge, nor have they used it to chide me, in any way.

If you're interested in learning Jiu Jitsu, MMA, Boxing, or Yoga this is the place to go! The staff are so friendly, the facilities are extremely clean, and the Coaches are all world class. What sets SBG apart from other gyms is the emphasis thats placed on the tribe. The members are all so friendly which creates a beautiful community foundation and a relaxed environment, whereas some other martial arts gyms may be hyper tense or too competitive for most people. I highly recommend getting in for a consultation for either yourself or your children as the system used to teach adults is just as comprehensive as the one used to nurture and cultivate young, enthusiastic martial artists out of kids. So c'mon down, vibe with the tribe, and tell em Sham sent ya ;)

Best decision I've ever made was joining this gym. Physically and mentally, it has made me an all around better person since moving to the valley. Theres hasn't been a class i haven't liked either, I've done mostly JiuJitsu, but also some MMA, Stand-Up, and Yoga. There's something for everybody, it doesn't matter what your goals are, SBG will help you reach them. I love the equality too, every coach treats you the same no matter how old/young, or experienced you are. Back home I would've been made fun of for my goals, but not here. Every member of the gym is supportive.

This post is in regards to Warrior Woman Bootcamp...first of all what an awesome program!! I look forward to going and working out for the first time in a long time. The coaches are so great and always are a positive influence and force to keep us all moving and striving to get better. The Core circuit training works every muscle in your body and I have become so much stronger. I increased my activity level and feel so much better all the time. I go through my week happier and with a sense of value and accomplishment. So thanks for this program and I look forward to the workouts to come, even tho they kick my butt!!!

SBG is an amazing gym with dedicated and knowledgeable coaches. Best gym ever!

Michael Jones

Absolutely a wonderful gym. I was there out of town for work and wanted to train while away. Everyone there gave me a warm welcome and made me feel comfortable. Leah Taylor is a awsome coach with knowledge and very detailed oriented. Next time I'm in Montana for work or vacation I have found a gym away from home and I will be back. Thanks to everyone there for all your help and kind words!!

SBGI is a very unique program that encompasses the whole being instead of focusing on just gym etiquette. The Coach and staff as well as the Whole Team of students are respectful young men and women who gather to share information about Life, Living, Learning and Laughter. Competing is an individual choice but being Challenged is very much encouraged. Best Decision Ever!

Show up for yourself and stay for your friends

Afraid to train with muscle heads? don't be!..there's none here In a sport that can be grueling and intense, SBGI takes an alternative approach. When you walk in to Straight Blast you can feel the energy, they truly care about each students needs and goals. There is sense of support and comradery, each individual working together for a bigger picture. life will take you up and down, but SBGI is the light that will give you direction.

It's a great gym and all. I had my 7yr old nephew going there for 2 years. He decided he didn't want to do it any longer after 2 years. I'm giving it a 3 star because they still charged me over $500 to cancel his membership. Never heard of a gym charging to cancel after 2yrs . Pretty spend your place where they like to lock you in with high prices

One sunny October day, I wandered through the door of Straight Blast Gym. I've been attending classes ever since; learning, training, changing; with some pretty fantastic people. SBG is more than just a place to work out. It is a community, a family, that supports, motivates, and encourages. I've gone the jiu jitsu and fitness track, but I only take advantage of half of the programs the gym offers: MMA, striking, Women's Warrior, plus the Explorers curriculum for children of all ages. I moved to Montana two years ago and SBG has been one of the best surprises of that move. Great place, great vibe, great people.

SBG Montana is the premiere facility in Kalispell. The faculty features everything from Jiu jitsu, mma, yoga and a full weight area. Travis and Kisa are two of the best coaches and people I’ve come across. Their ability to inspire confidence and make you better are unmatched in the state of Montana. Coach Leah is one of the best female black belts and was able to achieve her black belt in an amazing 5 years. The kids program has proven champions and provides an atmosphere to build maturity. If you can visit any gym in Kalispell, GO HERE!

I Moved to Montana about a year ago after I served in Active Duty. I wanted to make a change in my life and I came across SBG. Coach Travis and the crew welcomed me with open arms and since then, I've fell in love with it. SBG has some of the best coaches and people and I would recommend that if anyone wants to make a change in their lives and meet new people, then go to SBG you will not regret it.

Best Martial Arts gym anywhere. Love this place.

As he’s the Vice President of SBG globally, I’ve known of Travis Davidson here in England for the best part of over 2 decades with the world renown SBG, a regular stalwart gym of UFC competitors and champions. I’ve attended his martial arts classes and business seminars in the U.K. and Ireland, as well as in North America. He’s a superb family man, coach, and stand out martial artist. I’ve since gotten to know his wife Kisa, who balances being a Mum, Yoga and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu instructor, businesswoman and goodness knows what else with a drive for others to succeed. Their children are achieving incredible feats too at young ages and already making big steps in the world. Get the Davidson’s in your life. I would love to have my son in their training programme.
