The Strikers Lab journey
Our training methodology
At The Strikers Lab Gym, our training philosophy is rooted in the principles of discipline, technique, and community.
Developed by Franz “Dirty” Sanchez, our methodology combines the old-school values of martial arts with modern techniques to help students of all levels grow.
Iron Sharpens Iron
We believe in fostering a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere.
While combat sports can be intense, our gym is designed to filter out negativity and foster a family-like community.
We aim to create a positive, supportive space where everyone—regardless of experience—feels at home.

Each student receives tailored feedback aimed at refining techniques and improving overall performance.
