San Diego's Personal Training Gym

Welcome to our Accelerated Training Program (ATP), designed to be the ultimate in Private Training. It’s been created by some of the best coaches in Combat Sports, using the latest advances in sports training and science to rapidly increase new skill acquisition and development, as well as increased fitness and health. Offering the best one-on-one lessons in Striking, Grappling and Strength & Conditioning, ATP will help you accelerate your learning timeline dramatically, moving quickly past others who only participate in group classes.

Boxing, Kickboxing and Muay Thai are all privately taught in our Advanced Training program. Whether regular student, Amateur or Pro, we provide world class training designed to get you where you need to be.

In all the Combat Sports we teach, we focus on establishing proper fundamentals and correct body mechanics as the base we build upon, whether throwing punches, kicks, knees or elbows. From there, we focus on developing coordination and power using maximum efficiency, while working on more advanced combinations and technique. 

Jiu Jitsu, Judo and Wrestling are the primary sports we focus on in our Advanced Training program for grappling, although we also offer private training in MMA for current Mixed Martial Arts competitors or those who intend on competing.

As with our Striking programs, we place a strong emphasis on proper fundamentals as the foundation on which intermediate and advanced skills are taught. Once an athlete demonstrates clear proficiency in these fundamentals, we work on developing all aspects of their game required to succeed at any level.

Looking for the best personal training in San Diego? We have you covered. Instead of paying the outrageous fees other gyms charge for private training, we do things differently. Most gyms markup their personal training sessions up to 500%. This means they can pay their trainers $25 per hour and charge $125 per hour. This is unfair to the trainer and the client. In contrast, we don’t markup our personal training here at all. Instead, once you become a member of our gym, you pay our trainers directly and we stay out of the transaction. We get your membership dues, the trainers keep what they earn, and you get huge savings. It’s a win-win-win for everyone (except the other gyms with their inflated personal training prices). So if you want San Diego’s best personal training at the best prices, we’re your gym.

Testimonial | Austin B.

“My name’s Austin Brooks. I’m a professional boxer. I compete at featherweight and super featherweight, and I’m fighting out of The Arena. I decided to make the move to The Arena because I wasn’t competing enough. I wanted to sharpen up. I wanted to get better, and I really wanted to start competing. And I knew Coach Basheer over here and Joe Vargas. They’re really good coaches, and I just wanted to take my game to the next level. Basheer is really on top of his game, really focused on his fighters and getting them to that next level.”

Testimonial | Bobby W.

“I’m Bobby Winther. My martial arts background started when I was 14 when my uncle got me into Jiu Jitsu. So I’ve been trading Jiu Jitsu for about 11 years now. I recently picked up striking about two years ago, then I started getting into MMA about last year. Chuck and Vince have been absolutely wonderful, man. I was not necessarily a good striker when I showed up, so everything that they’ve taught me within the kickboxing classes and how to mesh it into my grappling has been wonderful. I couldn’t ask for better coaches. The goal for me is to get into the UFC.”
