From the reviews

I've been training at MAFC for nearly 2 1/2 years now and you will not find a more dedicated program to improving your health and well-being. The fitness classes are fun and informative with a wide variety of options to suit your fitness interests.

Mr. Preston has been working with our son for years. He is a high red belt, working on his black belt. Mr. Preston has been wonderful mentor to our son and has gone above and beyond! Our son admires and respects Mr. Preston.

Martial Arts Fitness Center is an excellent facility. My sons each started karate with MAFC at the age of four (they are now seven and ten). In addition to the basic karate training, the classes include self defense techniques, balance, coordination and memorization. The owner is wonderful with kids!

★★★★★ — Wendi, Jul 2017

I have known Bryan for over 15 years. He is a great person and quality instructor. I have been training at MAFC full time for the last 7 years. Classes are challenging. Instruction is specific and clear. Everyone is welcome and I encourage everyone to try at least one class.

Your first BJJ class at Martial Arts Fitness Center

Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

BJJ is a contact sport. Ease in, tap early and often, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
