From the reviews
Look no further! This place is amazing for all of their services. All the coaches make everyone feel comfortable and welcome. There is truly no judgment and everyone is willing to help. You don't have to know how to fight or have a martial arts background.
Great place. Excellent after school program for the kids. Coaches are excellent, and will work with you . The anti-bullying program is top notch
Best team and family environment of the type that ive seen or experienced yet. While it is also a business, im only reminded when i decide to purchase a drink from their fridge.
I would highly recommend this school to anyone, from experienced grapplers to someone that has never touched a mat. From the moment we walk in the door everyone was very welcoming. After a year here I feel like there isn't a better place to train. The type of training you can receive from this school is amazing.
Your first BJJ class at Modern American Mixed Martial Arts
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.
