Stevensville, MI - Fitness. Discipline. Strength. Three words that describe many areas of martial arts as well as the motto behind Legion Fighting Alliance’s rebrand to The Lab Martial Arts and Fitness. In late 2023, The Lab relocated from their downtown Benton Harbor space to their new gym at 4410 N. Roosevelt Dr. Unit C in Stevensville.
Offering Jiu-Jitsu, kickboxing, wrestling technique refinement, and full body functional workouts, they’ll help you build your confidence to take on even the most mundane of daily tasks. Their programs provide an ideal environment for athletes of any and all levels – from the experienced and seasoned fighter to those stepping on the mat for the first time, including specialized kid’s classes.
The Southwest Michigan Regional Chamber will be hosting a special ribbon cutting and grand opening celebration with The Lab on Monday, September 16th from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. Those attending are welcome to join in for an open mat for training or to simply explore the new gym. Refreshments, including Pizza Hut pizza will be available for attendees to enjoy as well as the opportunity to win a one-year membership, and free shirts. Those unable to attend that evening are welcome to stop to experience a mix of fun training classes throughout the day.
“The Lab Martial Arts and Fitness represents the spirit of growth and community that defines Southwest Michigan. Their commitment to fostering fitness, discipline, and strength in individuals of all skill levels aligns perfectly with our mission to support businesses that enhance the quality of life in our region. We're thrilled to celebrate their new beginning in Stevensville and look forward to witnessing the positive impact they'll continue to make on our community,” says Regional Chamber President & CEO, Arthur Havlicek.
Marine veteran Johnathon Scott holds the position of owner at The Lab boasting over 24 years of martial arts expertise. His athletic journey commenced at the age of five, when he began training in wrestling. Throughout his formative years, he honed his skills in boxing, wrestling, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and MMA, competing in more than 200 matches across the globe and training alongside the most accomplished teams and partners worldwide. Additionally, he has over a decade of coaching experience, working with athletes from all skill levels, including those who have competed at the highest levels, such as the UFC and Bellator.
Scott adds, “At The Lab, our mission goes beyond just training; it’s about empowering individuals to build confidence, strength, and discipline in every aspect of their lives. Our new location in Stevensville allows us to expand our reach and offer even more opportunities to show fitness truly is for everyone. We’re excited to continue growing with this community and help every generation reach their full potential.”
