Fighting Lyons: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Fighting Lyons Ninja Gym is an amazing place for both kids and adults! The facility is well-equipped, and the staff is professional, friendly, and incredibly supportive. They offer a great variety of challenges that help build strength, agility, and confidence. Whether you're looking for a fun way to stay active or serious ninja training, this gym has it all. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the coaches do a fantastic job of motivating everyone to push their limits while having fun. I highly recommend Fighting Lyons Ninja Gym to anyone looking for a top-notch ninja training experience!
Negative experience: Be very careful with this venue. We had issues with a party we booked where by the staff forgot to show up even though we had confirmed several times in advance and paid our deposit. We then had to leave early due to an overbooking. The staff that did eventually arrive were untrained and lacked any ability to manage children or respond to an injury that occurred. The Equipment is unsafe, which directly led the above mentioned issue. Fighting Lyons not only creates and fosters these hazardous conditions but also avoids liability for negligence of such by requiring guests to sign a waiver. On top of all this, the venue is dirty and in desperate need of an overhaul. Be warned—this place is poorly managed and unsafe for children.
Fantastic experience: Great place for kids to develop skills and get stronger.
Fantastic experience: Fighting Lyons Boxing Gym, under the expert guidance of Coach Michael, is a fantastic place for anyone serious about improving their boxing skills and overall fitness. Coach Michael brings a wealth of knowledge and a great teaching style that focuses on both technique and discipline. He has a remarkable ability to tailor workouts for all skill levels, from beginners to advanced fighters, ensuring everyone feels challenged yet supported. The gym atmosphere is highly motivating, with a strong sense of community among members. Whether you're looking to train for competitions or just improve your fitness, Fighting Lyons offers an intense, rewarding experience that will push you to be your best. Highly recommended Thank you Micheal and Team. Me & Riyaarth really enjoyed our time here.
Fantastic experience: We love it here, my daughter has a fantastic time in Mini Acro. The crew are fantastic, the kids are great and the culture is really positive.
Fantastic experience: I have been training ninja warrior at fighting lyons since the beginning on ninja with Paul Lyons 2018. Stopped for a while when the gym changed hands, but the new owners Michael and Katrina are amazing with myself and my children. We are all on the spectrum so sometimes the classes would be to overwhelming but with the support of staff and Michael head coach we now love attending and get the support we all need. We travel twice a week from Geelong and wouldn’t have it any other way. This gym is like a family to us and everyone that attends. The best community of people and the classes are so much fun with so much variety. Fighting Lyons also do sensory friendly classes and amazing structured classes. Thankyou for always being so kind and for allowing my family to be ourselves
Fantastic experience: So much fun and great learning experience, loved the Taekwondo program, especially in the days before ninja courses took over. Genuinely missing it and the team that was more of a family to everyone who came in.
Negative experience: I'm compelled to leave this review after my credits with Fighting Lyons expired without my knowledge. While the company claims that expiry dates are stated on their website when I asked about it, this crucial information was conspicuously absent at the time of purchase through the Glofox app. It's unreasonable to expect customers to assume that their prepaid classes have a hidden expiry, especially when such conditions are not clearly presented where it matters most—at the point of sale. This oversight feels like a breach of trust and disregards those of us who cannot always attend classes within restrictive time frames. I hope Fighting Lyons will consider the importance of transparency and customer convenience moving forward.
Fantastic experience: My daughter liked this place so much because pepsi (Pep)made it lots of fun. She liked boxing with her friends and playing in the foam pit. (She went there because of a birthday party.)
Fantastic experience: We do Sensory Gym at Fighting Lyons and my son loves it! The team are so friendly and always go out of their way to engage my child. Having a Sensory option is amazing and inclusive. We're so glad to have Fighting Lyons in our area
Fantastic experience: Daughter still enjoying her acro and junior ninja classes, so all good.
Fantastic experience: Lions fighting in a gym sounds kind of dangerous I think they should be in a zoo (just my opinion)
Negative experience: I can’t say anything nice about this place. I joined up for the free 7 day trial for my son to do ninja warriors. Let’s just say I was out within 25 mins. I have so many issues with this place it’s easier to bullet point them: - I arrive no one at the door. Someone finally comes tells me to go upstairs then downstairs and join the group. No intro nothing. - walk up the stairs, I was going to be sick the foyer stunk of toilet. Noting the toilet was in that area. Clean your toilets or at least have doors closed. - children should be grouped age appropriate. The older kids were running wild no order. - the kids were not properly supervised nor given adequate support.. Additionally, the place is run down and needs work.
Thank you for your review. This is very surprising as our club has been family to our community for 14 years and has received hundreds of positive reviews on Google and Facebook.
For peace of mind, our practice is to clean toilets at the start and end of each shift with spot checks in between. We have young children using our amenities and on occasion they may have an accident that we can’t attend to immediately.
We place our children into age appropriate groups with the exception of some younger children who are too advanced for their group.
We have a front desk staff member who welcomes and checks in all of our patrons. New patrons are personally shown to their class and introduced to their instructor which may take them away from the desk for a few minutes.
We would love to speak to you personally about your experience and give your child the opportunity to have a positive experience with our club.
Unfortunately we couldn’t find any record of you in our booking system to contact you.
Our email is [email protected] if you would like to chat.
Fantastic experience: We have been bringing my little boy here since he was three years old. He loves it and the instructors are great.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this place and so does my daughter she does mini acro and mini ninja
Fantastic experience: Great staff good facilities.
Fantastic experience: Can't believe I've only gotten around to giving this place a review just now. What can I say. It's absolutely brilliant and heaps of fun!!! The staff are all awesome and super friendly, the setup is awesome and they offer such a wide range of different classes which is great!! As a competitive ninja athlete who's done a fair amount of ninja competitions here at Fighting Lyons over the last 2 years, I can comfortably say that it's awesome and I highly recommend it!!
Fantastic experience: This place is great. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Just started a Personal training class with Michael. Love it... Michael knows what he is doing, very professional. But still makes it fun.
Fantastic experience: A big shout-out to the team at Fighting Lyons. My daughter and her friends attended a Junior Ninja session (their firsts) a couple of weeks ago as a celebration for her birthday. I have to admit, at the start, I had some trepidation looking at the number of kids that were there and all the equipment, but the staff were amazing. The kids were quickly sorted into groups, with each group led by a staff member to assist the kids through the course. The male staff assigned to my daughters group was attentive and helpful, and encouraged and helped a group of 7 year olds through everything that they had to do. The girls couldnt have been happier. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to give us your lovely feedback

Fantastic experience: I came in for a ninja sesh. this was my first one at fighting Lyons. I felt very welcome and Paul and the other staff were very accommodating. also the high ceilings are a big plus if you enjoy playing on the traveling rings.
Fantastic experience: Had my son's 6th Birthday party over the weekend. What a great location, amazing staff and facilities, could not fault their level of service. Something different and something all the kids enjoyed, was able to do our own catering and offered a very affordable pricing option for the party thank you!
Fantastic experience: It’s like my second home such a cool vibe. I fully recommend it to anyone children and adults. Paul Lyons is incredible and is so good with the children, awesome staff and Katie and Brandon are awesome managers that are so helpful. Love this place so much.
Fantastic experience: My two daughters and four of their friends (aged 4-6) attended the Holiday Ninja Bootcamp yesterday. They absolutely loved it and had so much fun. When the two hour session was up they immediately asked if they could do it again. The staff were all wonderful, especially with the little ones. Thank you. We will be back!
Fantastic experience: As a competitive Ninja Warrior athlete, this place is my 2nd home. Paul is a great coach and I always enjoying my training sessions there
Fantastic experience: Great place, friendly atmosphere and the trainers are extremely skilled and knowledgeable.
Fantastic experience: If Luke was serious, he would of taken his own gloves. Only $30. Like they are going to handout fresh gloves to any clown off the street. Personally, I love this place. Good vibe, great for kids and adults alike no matter what level they are at. My son is four going on five and I'm glad this is the place he has found his first sport/hobby.
