F2 Arena & Darkside Athletics

I trained at Darkside for 2+ years and had my first two amateur MMA fights under their banner. I made lots of new friends, learned a lot of great techniques (Ryan is an especially great wrestling instructor which is HUGE for MMA), and got in the best shape of my life. I can’t tell you how much I miss it now that I’ve moved away from Gainesville!
Darkside is a fantastic place to pursue whatever fitness goals you have. Becky and Ryan are wonderful people, great coaches, and very knowledgeable about various types of training and nutrition. The equipment selection is great, you’ll get to train using a lot of things you won’t find at your average gym, and they’re always reinvesting in new equipment and other improvements to their facility. The community style training is great and you’re bound to make new friends who are also interested in health and fitness. It’s awfully hard to stay committed and motivated when you feel like you’re doing it alone. If you’re in Gainesville and looking for top notch training make the investment in yourself and check out Darkside!
