The breakdown: This is one of Broomfield’s hidden gems. You may have driven past it on your way to Boulder or the flatirons mall and never even noticed it. The sprawling facility is both clean and airy. Offering a good mix of classes in both styles and skill levels, Zingano’s is turning out high level fighters yet still has time and room for kids and beginner classes.
