Best Mma Gym near Miami, Florida

Great clean and safe space to learn and develop, the staff and instructors are amazing as they guide the students thru their individual growth process they are challenged both physically and mentally. Respect is earned.

My son has been with Believe Martial Arts for over 5 years now. This team of mentors, coaches, and masters are amazing at what they do! They love what they do and they inspire and motivate these kids to be the best.. inside and out! It’s an amazing part of my son’s life and I would do it all over again if given the choice! My son will go continue to grow with them and I hope that one day he decides to help Master Graf and his team train the new kids. I love how they treat everyone with the utmost respect and the patience they exhibit with the children everyday ! I am proud that my son is a part of the Believe Family and am excited for the future !

Highly recommended for all children Believe Martial Arts transforms childrens and familes by assisting them in learning and growing as individuals. Children are are able to learn key concepts that improve behavior and srenghten mindset.

Highly recommend! Fantastic instructors using positive reinforcement to motivate the kids.

Believe is a cut above other martial arts. As a parent, I really like the character emphasis. My six year old instantly rattles off that integrity is doing the right thing when no one is looking. The instructors really care about the kids and are the right mix of discipline and fun for the kids.

My daughter has been going to WMB for several years now and she loves it. The coaches are amazing. They keep the kids engaged and motivated to learn. JB and his team not only teach martial arts. They take an active role in teaching these kids life lessons like being independent and responsible, making good decisions, never giving up and rising to the challenge when things get tough. I highly recommend WMB!

Absolutely the best school ever!!! Switched my kids to WMB from another school and definitely made the right decision. The coaches are fantastic the staff is excellent. I can't say enough great things. JB is an amazing coach and leader, he is tough, and extremely involved with the kids. He notices the kids strengths and weaknesses, and works on building up the kids like I have never seen before. My kids and my husband enjoy training at WMB, it has made them bond on a whole other level.

My 8 year old daughter wanted to take martial arts classes so I started looking for a gym. After looking at several martial arts gyms in my area and not having a good feeling about any of them. We decide to go to WMB even though it was a 25 minute drive for us. A friend of mine took her children there and she was happy with the gym. They had exactly what I as a parent was looking for, caring people that are interested in the children as a whole. I have both my daughters 8 and 4 going there now and they absolutely love it. They can't wait to go to their classes and my oldest has gotten more self confidence from going to WMB. JB is a great coach and shows great interest in the kids, teaching them things not even relating to martial arts before and after class. Coach Sierra is the face you see when you come in the office always warm and greeting everyone walking through the door. All the Dave's are incredible coaches and really love what they do and take great interest in the kids. I Love this place!

I don't think there is a word in the dictionary that can describe how amazing and special this place is. My son is 10 years old and joined WMB almost 2 years ago. With a son newly diagnosed with ADHD and Aspergers my son has flourished and has found his confidence and something that he truly loves. I have spoken to the coaches about issues in school or bullying or grades or even behavior and the support and overall love they have for the kids is priceless. I have been to many places and my kids hated going. At WMB my son has made friends and has found something he is good at and feels a part of a team. The summer camp is unique and educational. I personally look forward to my son's classes and we belong there. If you want that interpersonal relationship and results and a positive atmosphere then this is the place you need to be. Now, my 7 year old daughter started 2 weeks ago. After trying a class and becoming a part of the WMB family she asked me to pull her out of dance and gymnastics! So now we are a full-time WMB family and I would not trade it for anything in the world!

WMB is an amazing place for both children and adults. The staff and the instructors are very caring and patient. Both my daughters loved coming to WMB because of the instructors and the environment and would get upset if we couldn’t make it one day. They enjoyed learning new skills. Unfortunately we had to take a break from WMB but are hoping to re-enroll the girls in the summer. If anyone is considering enrolling their child or themselves in WMB, don’t think twice! This place is made to make you feel like family while learning skills you can apply in your everyday lives. **Thank you to all the coaches who made two little girls want to become a Jujitsu instructors when they grow up!**

This academy is fantastic, Master Garcia is an excellent martial arts instructor with a lot of experience. Master Allan is also wonderful. The place is always clean and all the staff is very friendly. The children are very happy

My daughter attends MMA classes at AKA. I am constantly impressed by the professionalism of Mr. Garcia & his amazing staff. They take their responsibility to teach the discipline very seriously. And the classes go beyond the physical skills the students acquire. When they say “Knowledge in the Mind, Honestly in the Heart, & Strength in the Body”, they mean it & focus on honing all those elements. My daughter loves the classes so much that she decided to have her birthday party there. I thought it would be cool beforehand, but the reality exceeded all of my expectations. As with their classes, the party was visually stunning, fun for the kids & entertaining for the parents, while somehow still complying with their core goals of Knowledge in the Mind, Honestly in the Heart & Strength in the Body… well, also pizza & cake in the body. ;) As you can see, I’m a happy patron. Be aware, however, that Mr. Garcia is very disciplined & he expects no less from his students. If you think your child is up for it, or if you want them to build that discipline, you can find no better place.

My son has been going to AKA for almost 2 years and we love them! Mr Garcia is excellent at teaching kids, encouraging them and pushing them to be the best they can be. My kid gained a lot of confidence and the mixed martial arts philosophy helps build character. He also has made good friends through it!

AKA is great, highly recommend for your child! We started a couple of months ago and we’ve already seen such an improvement with our son. He is more respectful, attentive and best of all he loves it. He is excited for every class. They make sure you have a great experience and community. Mr. Garcia, Mrs. Garcia, Mia and Coach Alain are amazing and very communicative. I can’t say enough good things about this place. So happy we chose AKA!

Our son has been taking classes for a few months and he loves it. The team is so great with the kids. I have seen an overall improvement in his confidence and coordination. Highly recommend!

I cannot be happier about having my kids in this martial arts class. My kids are more confident and are always happy and excited to go. I love they are taught in a positive manner how to deal with challenges in life. They see how discipline can help them accomplish anything they want in life!

I can only say great things about HMA and all the staff there. We had our son participate in the little tigers program over the summer and it was great. Our son enjoyed classes, always looked forward to going and learned so much. The program for kids is great, built on life lessons and skill.

Hybrid Martial Arts has a great curriculum for Adults and children. My son has been attending for almost a year. He enjoys the classes and it’s nice to see the progress he’s made. I have also trained in Martial Arts and can say without a doubt that Sensei Courtney White is the real deal. He teaches with passion and really cares about his students. Sensei has all the credentials, and represents the community well. I would recommend Hybrid Martial Arts for anyone looking for practical self-defense and more.

Hybrid Martial Arts is a great place for the whole family. Sensai White is great with the kids and the parents; he always welcomes the parents to come observe the classes, and a few times a year, parents will join in a family class as well. Sensai teaches more than the martial arts moves. He teaches fundamentals like focus, respect, discipline, family, and more. He often consults with the parents on how the kids are doing, and if there is anything happening at school or home that needs to be addressed, he helps by giving guidance in his class. I've asked Sendai to talk about "who your friends are after there were some issues at school"; he did it as a class teaching without pointing at a specific child, this it helped get the point across without singling anyone out (I'm sure other parents go through similar issues at home, so it helps everyone). You can ask Sensai to talk about something that your child is going through so he can talk about the subject in class. Sensai also teaches adult classes and self-defense. I highly recommend them. We have been part of the Hybrid Martial Arts family for almost a year.

Awesome structure for adult classes, our instructor is very knowledgeable and kind. Classmates are helpful and encouraging :)
