Meet Head Coach and Owner,

Patrick Durkin Cummins

Coach Pat is our fearless Head Coach and Community Builder. He’s the kindest, most lovable guy you’ll ever meet. He’s also — though he’ll never tell you, so we will — a two-time NCAA Division I All-American wrestler and former top 10 UFC light heavyweight. His career has spanned elite collegiate wrestling, 2 Olympic Games, and competing at the highest levels of mixed martial arts. It goes without saying that Coach Pat brings a wealth of competitive experience, proven skill, and vast knowledge of the latest training techniques and nutritional science.

But don’t be fooled into thinking Coach Pat only trains elite professional athletes. In fact, he gets the most satisfaction out of working with kids, newcomers, and anyone enthusiastic about fitness, learning, and having fun. Regardless of where his students are in their training, they develop precise technique, strategic thinking, and a resilient mindset that not only helps them excel in the gym, but also helps them meet challenges beyond the mat with confidence and discipline. His approach is lighthearted, yet direct and disciplined, and grounded in real-world application— ideal for students looking to level up their training through practical, battle-tested methods in a fun, safe environment.

We dare you NOT to fall in love with Coach Pat!
