"Best MMA gym in the DMV area. All of the coaches are extremely attentive and patient and will ensure you do not leave a class feeling anything but great. I recommend this gym for everyone; whether you have been training for years, or it being your first time visiting a MMA gym. You will meet a lot of kind people as well as make new friends."
Brittany Berggren
"Coach Greg, Coach Lyndon, and Coach John are all extremely dedicated to their students and programs. They have programs for beginners all they way up to advanced students and many classes available for those with a busy and hectic schedule. They’ve done a wonderful job setting the facility up to be one of the premier training spots in the entire DMV. Can’t wait to see what’s next."
Carl Smith
"An incredible place to level up skill in Jiu Jitsu, MMA, Kickboxing, Boxing, wrestling, and so much more..
The staff are comprised of world champion competitors, yet once you walk in, you are treated like family. That cliche is not a joke. You are respected, taught with patience, intelligence, and understanding; coaches stay with you after class to discuss your individual skill and goals.
Make no mistake, this is a serious gym when it comes to preparing to win tournaments and matches; but the most important thing I’ve learned being a member here is that winning is a team effort; and it’s a byproduct of integrity, discipline, and the will to succeed!"
