I used to be a member at another gym and found it tremendously over hyped. I have been a member of New York Sanda for only a few months, but it has matted floors, tons of thai bags and tons of classes. I care about results and I have seen them.
The gym is also very serious compared to the "fan boy" atmosphere at the other places and is equally friendly to men and women. There are a lot of women in our classes. They are serious and train hard, so no worries.
