The Art of Fitness
Welcome to Sapien the Art of Fitness. This is unlike MMA gyms, Boxing gyms, or Commercial gyms. Our goal is to teach the Art of Adaptability through Martial Arts. External variables will happen whether you like it or not. Physical Injuries, Emotional Trauma, Financial Crisis, etc.
Adversity will punch you in the mouth and you better be able to wipe the blood off and smile at the challenge. The mindset of Warrior, the confidence of a Lion, and the passion of an Artist our the rewards for training at Sapien.

Testimonials
Henry Q
It’s the best martial arts training you’ll find in St. Pete. And there are plenty of other options if you want to stick to strength and cardio. Those Saturday morning classes are nothing to sneeze at 😤 Tre is a great guy. Give Sapien a shot — you won’t regret it
Hilliard H
I have been working with Tre for the passed several months. Found his gym through a love for boxing and staying fit over 30. The workouts are catered to each person and he’s very supportive as a trainer which is what I need otherwise I won’t do anything at the gym. He’s made fitness fun again and our sessions fly by. Every single workout I finish I am drenched in sweat and feel great for the day. Also he’s a great guy to just talk to while working out!
Adrian Mcdermeit
Tre is wonderful at planning and engaging kids in fitness based around obstacles, boxing, and agility. He is patient yet authoritative when necessary to keep energetic kids on task. My son loves working with Tre!
