Next door! Our main mat space is now located in the old Auto Detailing space next door. To better serve our members we have expanded the main mat area by 500 square feet. We have added a dressing area/locker room, an in space restroom and shower.

We are currently in the process of renovating our old space to include another mat room/multipurpose room to hold our dedicated Striking, MMA & Womens Programs. Look for big things in 2012 from the GT Academy!
