There are a few things I feel that make the heart of a great MMA gym:
1) Experienced Coaches who love what they do (Teaching you!)
2) The sense of camaraderie that comes with humble participants who train together. And..3) A positive atmosphere where all are welcome!
This is how I would describe Northshore MMA.
I encourage anyone looking to sharpen their mind, body, and spirit through combat sports to give this gym a try.

I moved to Washington a couple years ago and I wanted to find a boxing gym to keep fit in the off season. This gym is very welcoming and everyone there is very friendly. Coach Joe got me into an orientation session right away and was very helpful. Coach Mathias is an excellent teacher and helped everyone in the classes. This gym is for everyone, beginners and experienced boxers. If you're looking to get in or stay in shape, I would definitely recommend this gym!

2 years ago my husband and two little ones made the move to Washington from Sunny South Florida. Coming to the west coast was a difficult adjustment for us as adults and we wanted our son (6 years old at the time) to get more acquainted with other kids his age, through sports. We chose NSMMA for Brazilian jiu jitsu, and it's a decision we have not regretted. Our son is 8 years old now, he continues to train and has now competed in his first BJJ tournament. This is not just a 'gym' this has become a second home for us, where I can honestly see my son's growth in regards to discipline

I've been training here for about 8 months, and I have no plans to stop. The class size is small so everyone gets plenty of one-on-one time with the instructors. Those attending class form a friendly little community of mutual support. I've been going 3x a week, and have lost 15 pounds since I started, while gaining a visible amount of muscle mass and definition. I feel much more confident in my self-defense abilities than I did when I first started. Every class is friendly to students of all ability levels. The instructors frequently get carried away in their passion for teaching us

My son and daughter have attended Northshore MMA for over 2 1/2 years now. Coach Joe and his daughters have provided not only excellent and practical instruction for them in jujitsu, but they have been a shining example on the importance of family and what it means to be a good friend and team mate. Coach Joe connects individually with each and every child in class and truly cares about every one of them. He is honest with the kids and has us parent observers laughing every single class with his "real talk"! I am confident that my kids are safe and can and will protect themselves if necessary

After years of doing nothing and gaining weight, I finally got motivated to pick up a sport, and I remembered boxing being great exercise and good fun. Some Google searching led me to Northshore MMA, and they had exactly what I was looking for. Coach Joe invited me in to watch a class and participate in the beginning boxing course, and Coach Mathias got me moving and sweating like I haven't done in almost five years.
I'm into the beginning course, and I'm impressed by the welcoming spirit of this place. Everyone knows those gyms where us fat guys get the stink eye from the ultra

Moving up here from California into the PNW area was a big change for me. I found myself as a punk kid with nothing to do but hangout with friends and cause trouble all day. As soon as this gym came into my life I was destined for something. I found myself skilled and determined other than chilling on the couch all day. This gym has helped me set a lifestyle for myself to become a better person. I've learned to bring mma into my own world. I gave everything 110%. I was dedicated to riding my bike after school everyday to this gym, hoping to learn something new. Helped me bring peace within

My two boys have been COGA students for just about 8 months now. Previous to this, they took two years of muay thai kickboxing. The kids COGA program is great - my boys are having a lot more fun here. We like the variety included in a single monthly tuition fee. They get a good fitness workout, keep up with their boxing skills and learn wrestling and jiu jitsu. They are active boys who get worked hard and sweat but still have a lot of FUN in class. They look forward to learning new things, testing their strength and abilities and wrestling with their class friends.

I've been involved with COGA for a few years now, and Im completely loyal to the place. Prior to training here, I had some wonderful training experiences at C3, ISMMA, MKG, and other gyms. The difference here is the community-centric sort of atmosphere. Everyone seems to be really close knit (which probably stems from Head Coach "Bazooka" Joe being a family man), and it just makes for a great environment to train and have fun.
