“I’ve been with Impact for just over a year now and have trained Muay Thai Kickboxing and Jiu Jitsu. Not only are their programs great workouts, but it’s a great community where anyone can walk in and begin. Every time I leave Impact Salem, I leave a better, stronger, kinder, and more capable person.”
