Being a complete beginner to workout classes, I was initially nervous about trying something new. However, Master Sayed's patient and gradual approach made the transition smoother for me. His passion and expertise in the art were evident as he carefully explained every aspect of the training. I struggled with even the simplest movements due to my lack of balance and coordination. Despite this, Master Sayed was encouraging and supportive, providing me with the guidance and tools necessary to improve my balance and form.
Master Sayed's motivational attitude and encouragement helped me push myself harder each class and celebrate my progress along the way. Thanks to his guidance and support, I have been able to successfully complete my first three months of class with confidence and progress. Not only is Master Sayed knowledgeable about the art, but he also has a genuine interest in his students' progress, which has helped me stay committed to my training and my overall health.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ryan M.Agoura Hills, CA547416Jul 12, 2022
Master Sayed is a true master of the craft. He watches every movement and gives small corrections so that your form and technique can be perfected. Master Sayed is a true coach and helped me develop in many ways other than physically including mentally and spiritually. If you are looking to learn to fight and defend yourself for real Master Sayed does not hold back and will give you all of the information and knowledge of martial arts that you crave. Other teachers hold back information and make students wait until they have a certain belt, but not at Fight Factory, at this gym if I want to fight a certain style for the day that is what we train. Under master Sayed I have learned the fundamentals of boxing, Hop Ki Do, and jui jistsu and some king fu. Every class is a good workout and the information, instruction, sparring with Master Sayed is all very exciting and rewarding. Thank you!!

Master Sayed has been really whipping me back into shape! After being out of the Marines for 5 years and gaining a lot of weight, Master Sayed has been making me sweat every class. I truly believe he cares about his students' health and well being and wants his students to improve physically and mentally. My kids ages 9 and 7 are also taking his classes and although they only attend twice a month, they have improved in their techniques. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

Very clean facility with family-friendly staff. These guys have been in the self-defense field for many years and I've had the pleasure of training with Master Sayed for private lessons for a few sessions. I think this is just one of a few gyms that they operate so it seems like these guys have their act together.
Highly recommend. 5/5Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Cory K.Chatsworth, Los Angeles, CA625Jul 29, 2019
I leave each class feeling great. Master Sayed is the best. He has decades of experience/training in various martial arts. He cares for his students and wants to see them progress and become good at what they do so they have the tools to be safe and teach if one should choose to do so. He always give details so you know what, why and how each move works in real life. I've taken martial arts before and the instructors had us going through the motions where here I'm taught how to do them correctly, step by step.

I ve been training with master sayed for awhile now and he is a true master he knows how to explain every technique in a way where it becomes easy fast, and takes his time with every student, never rushes you out, he takes his job very serious because that's something he is compassionate about which makes him one of the top masters around.

Best classes you will ever take! Wether you are doing group or private Master Sayed gives you a great workout. He will definitely makes you sweat! I currently bring two boys and they love it. One of them hates like every sport possible but he loves his boxing classes. Master Sayed is great at keeping kids engaged throughout the whole class and keeping it fun! For the adults don't worry if you feel out of shape or if you don't think you will be able to keep up in the class. He will help guide you and get you to where you need to be. He genuinely cares about all his students.

Master Sayed Qubadi is simply amazing. He is a Master in over 11 different martial arts, and his performance is amazing. A kind man with a serious family lineage of martial artists, he is an excellent teacher. The techniques are powerful if you practice with precision. He is ALWAYS there to answer questions, teach, explain and demonstrate not only the tecniques, but the concepts behind the techniques.
The Gym itself is nothing short of impressive, you have all the weights and machines you need, two boxing rings, tons of bags, two large mats, equipment and 14 new speed bags at various heights!
If you're someone who wants to learn how to make a dent in someone who wants to mess with you, this is a great place to learn!
If you can manage to get by a few cultural nuiaces, you'll stand to learn a lot - and become the Warrior you want to be.Helpful 8Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - Erez S.Los Angeles, CA08Mar 3, 2015

Master sayeed Is a great teacher , very patient , thorough , and mindful and strict of the little nuances , ali is a great instructor as well and has the makings of his dad , I don't do boxing and mui tai but it looks like they are working hard looking at the amount of sweat dripping from the
