Support John Lough’s Stroke Recovery

Recently, John suffered a severe stroke that has left him facing a long and challenging recovery. He is currently in the hospital, with limited ability. Doctors expect he will be hospitalized for weeks, and the road ahead will require extensive rehabilitation. This sudden event has put a tremendous strain on John and his family, both emotionally and financially. He will need help covering medical bills, therapy, and living expenses as he can no longer run his small business.

John Lough has been a cornerstone of our gym since we opened in 2019, serving as one of our lead Jiu Jitsu coaches and a constant source of positivity. His dedication to our community goes far beyond teaching technique—John motivates everyone around him to be their best, both on and off the mats. His encouragement and energy have shaped the lives of countless members, and his presence always lifts the mood in the gym. Not only is John a remarkable coach, but he’s also a devoted dad and stepdad, always putting his family and students first.

We’re coming together as a gym community to support John in this difficult time. Every contribution will help ease the burden on his family and give him the best chance at recovery. Thank you for standing with John and showing him the same support he’s always given to us.
