Everything is bigger and better in Texas, or so the saying goes, which is why so many business and home owners turn to the bigger and better supplier of Texas flooring - Greatmats. From martial art studios and gyms to dog training centers, the best facilities have specialty flooring from Greatmats.
MMA Training Surfaces
Grind House Fitness in Houston, Texas is a premier fitness and MMA facility. Co-owned by Alyssa Cantu and Dusty Gibson, they work hard to ensure that their fitness offerings are for everyone, which is why they offer CrossFit, Olympic weightlifting, powerlifting, strongman, yoga, sports performance and MMA.
Among Grind House’s most notable clients is UFC Heavyweight Derrick “The Black Beast” Lewis - who Alyssa coaches in strength and conditioning. They also train Texas state record holding weightlifters, national weightlifters, and families who just enjoy working out together.
Because Grind House is the best at what it does, it’s owners wanted the flooring to live up to their standards as well. In April of 2019, they installed a 700 square foot mat consisting of Greatmats 2 inch thick Foam Rolls, which they stretched a tarp over for a finished surface on which they could run Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai and MMA classes.
By September the same year, they were ready to equip their cage with Greatmats Home BJJ Mats 1.5 Inch, are top quality mats available at an affordable price. Alyssa also used the mats to create a garage dogo to offer online classes during COVID-19. Even with the Texas heat and humidity, the quality of the mats have never been compromised.
Karate Mats
About 3.5 hours north of Houston is Lindale, home to Texas Tang Soo Do Academy. Master Chad Adams also likes to provide the best surface for his workout, which is why he also turned to Greatmats, opting for the 1-inch thick interlocking Martial Arts Karate Mats in red and blue for his flooring.
After five years of use, Master Adams says, ''They're durable and age well over time.''
He also appreciates their ability to stay in place, provide protection, and allow for free movement. He says, ''I highly recommend people to use Greatmats. The quality is great. The price is good. The service is good. I don't have any complaints. I've shopped. I don't feel there's need to buy anywhere else.''
Dennis Livotto of The Woodlands Shotokan Karate in Spring, Texas also turned to Greatmats for 1-inch thick interlocking Martial Arts Karate Mats in his facility. He enjoys how the mats look and perform, with the ability to do traditional karate, full takedowns, and other skills - without suffering injuries.
Boxing Fitness Floors for Seniors
Texas boxing fitness facilities use Greatmats flooring, as well. Kristi Richards at 413 Fitness in Austin, Texas works with senior citizens. She wanted a floor that provided cushioned support in a wood-grain look, so she also went with the 1 inch thick karate mats.
Because so many of her clients fall regularly, she needed to provide a surface that would deliver some give and shock absorption. She achieved that with the karate mats. She also loves how easy they are to clean and how well they hold up.
Many of her clients have Parkinson’s. One of the things they have a hard time with is regulating their body temperature, so many of them sweat walking in from their car in the Texas heat. This means, Kristi is constantly sanitizing the mats, which doesn’t compromise their quality. They clean up so well and even endure the weight of chairs on them that some clients use.
Dog Agility Flooring
Keller, Texas, which is about 45 minutes northwest of Dallas and 30 minutes northeast of Fort Worth, is home to the Lucky Dog Training Center. Owner Melinda Meche researched dog agility flooring options and knew she wanted to offer the safest environment for all dogs, which she found in a product at Greatmats.
The Greatmats Dog Agility Mats Interlocking Tiles have certainly delivered. They stay in place, clean up well, are double sided, and don’t absorb moisture. Overall, she loves her Greatmats flooring.
