The first gym to have No Holds Barred fighting and bare knuckle fighting. This place is great if you want to learn how to fighting in any situation and I would give it a 20 out of 5 for being intense

The Tiger’s Pit has been my home for just over 7 years now and I have never seen any other spot like the one that we have. From the minute you set foot in the door you realize that you are in for something real and gritty, it is definitely the real deal…no flash and glamor just the what you need to learn. My teammates are the tightest knit group of people I have had the pleasure of getting beat up by, they are all very skilled in many weight classes. This family/my teammates is all the work of the blood, sweat, and tears of the man himself Don Hinzman. Nobody will give you the intensity and technical knowledge that this man will….NOBODY. This gym is as states with many unique techniques and is also mentioned in the above comment the only school to have bare-knuckle and NHB fights as part of a regular day. Whether you want to compete or learn how to stay safe in ANY situation, seriously ANY, and you feel like getting to work immediately Hinzman’s Tiger’s Pit is for you.

Oh wow who would have guessed some un named person left a bs review, this comes with the online scene though and yeah Ed has not trained at the gym for quite a few years and whoever went to other gyms that is their choice, one thing is for sure though whoever this guy is that left that review would not say that Don is not legit if the guy wanted stay awake for very long, look me up on sherdog and find out only 2 fights are listed and those were ammy fights where I fought guys with much more “fight experience”, yet can’t locate any other fights I might have had like this one for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7z72KRQSJg

Was sherdog really around in the 80’s… Nope

Does sherdog cover “undergound” fights… Nope

Haters are going to hate, keep that in mind

I have been training at Hinzman’s Tigers Pit for 10 years now and I still have not seen anyone as knowledgeable or creative in the art of fighting. Don Hinzman has unmatched skill, power, and knowledge of all aspects of martial arts and NHB fighting. I have done and seen things done at his school that I once thought were impossible for a human being.
If someone is looking for an eye opening, life changing experience in learning the martial arts than Hinzman’s Tiger’s Pit is the place to learn. I, for one , will never train anywhere else as long as I live.
