Brooklyn Mixed Martial Arts & Fitness

Saw a deal on Groupon 10 Kickboxing classes for $ 45.00 and decided to take a go at it.
Good choice!!! So far so good. Pats self on back :)
The listing on the website has Kickboxing classes listed everyday. However, at this time, Groupon purchasers can only attend classes Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. BUMMER for me because the time for Monday/​Wednesday classes fit my schedule better.
The environment is relaxed, the classes are upbeat, have people of all different sizes and ages, it’s a workout, it’s fun and the people I’ve encountered there are friendly.
The instructor gives directions, everyone works out at their own comfort level and he offers friendly encouragement.
CON: Boxing gloves… I see some people have their own. I would suggest, unlike me, you bring your own too. Some of these gloves smell funky!

I came in after a miserable experience at CKO kickboxing. The first class is free. Brilliant idea because once you come you are hooked! The class was intense but amazing. Coach Terry Is a kick boxing GOD. I was a complete beginner and he took the time to make sure my form was correct and to help me achieve the best possible results. I sware this Saturday morning class is the only reason I get my ass out of bed on the weekends. If you are a beginner or a kick boxing pro I strongly suggest you check this place out, you will not be disappointed!!!

All other gyms are irrelevant if you ask me. If you don’t go to BKMMA you’re just not serious. The classes and workouts are the best Brooklyn has to offer. The coaches are top notch and push you to get the best workout possible. Especially Terry who i think would give Chuck Norris a run for his money.

The first class is free… You know why? because once you try it, you never want to go back to what you were doing before you joined Brooklyn MMA. When I joined back in July of 2011, I never imagined what an MMA gym could do for me. Having always stayed fit, I didn’t join because I needed to lose weight. I joined because I wanted to get stronger and learn the correct way to defend myself. You can learn self defense, but if you don’t know how to use it, it’s not going to help you.
At Brooklyn MMA the coaches not only get you physically fit, they make sure you can use what they teach you in the real world. That being said, I love this place!!! it’s like family, in fact my whole family gets a work out here. My husband is a member, having joined after stating that my cooking was adding to his waist line, he’s lost 30 lbs and still eats my cooking. My son who turned 4 in November has been learning the art of MMA since March, he adores the Coaches and really enjoys his private MMA classes with Coach Joel who is getting him ready to join the kids fitness program that they offer.

Been going to this school for almost a year now. This is a great school as they give you that personal attention you won’t find anywhere else. If you’re looking for a great workout or just want to learn self defense, this is the place to go. The classes are diverse and they have pretty much something for everyone. Since coming here, I’ve dropped 20 lbs. Best school around!

If you’re looking for a geniune mixed martial arts training experience, Brooklyn Mixed Martial Arts is the best and only game in town. Whether you’re just looking to stay in shape, learn self defense, or compete professionally, this is the place to be. First and foremost, the place is cheap to join, and there are always deals being offered. This is important as NY martial arts schools generally overcharge due to their high overhead costs. Second, BKMMA actually does offer «mixed» martial arts. On any given week, you can take classes in Brazillian jiujitsu (both with or without gi, which is important because it does make for two unique experiences/​skill sets), boxing, Muay thai, Judo, wrestling, and MMA (which blends everything together). No less than 7 different coaches teach there, each a seasoned veteran in their particular martial art. They also offer periodic seminars with big names in martial arts, such as undefeated UFC fighter Chris Weidman, and Ultimate Fighter finalist Phillipe Nover. BKMMA is also one of the few schools open 7 days a week. They offer classes for adults (men and women), teens, juniors, and they even do kids birthday parties.
Having been to several other martal arts schools, I can honestly say joining BKMMA has been one of the best things I’ve ever done. Since I started training there in September of 2011, I’ve lost about 25lbs, and my cardiovascular health has improved dramatically. I have shown drastic improvement in all aspects of the MMA game. I now hit harder and more accurately, and submit my grappling opponents far more often than I used to. Most of all, I’ve never felt like I was being treated as just a customer, but rather as a member of a team. If you want to learn MMA, I can’t recommend Brooklyn Mixed Martial Arts strongly enough.

I have been training here since February 2011, lost 35lbs and counting. You will gain confidence and get in shape. I have learn judo, wrestling and jiu-​jitsu as well as MMA.
Tons of fun. classes for teens, kids and women as well. All ages an all levels make BK MMA the place to start training. i love it, and I will continue to go there
