We love AGA! My husband, daughter (7) and now son attend classes at American Grappling Academy. We’ve been going there for over a year now. Both the coaches are friendly along with the community they have within the gym. At the end of class you’ll feel encouraged and motivated to come back. The gym is clean, organized and super kid friendly! First class is free! I couldn’t recommended AGA enough!

I have two kids who also attend and they are excited everyday to attend class. I highly recommend coming down seeing the gym and meeting the coaches

Been here 2 months now. Gave it time for my kids and they love it. Great place. Update: I've seen some amazing things happening here lately so if I could give it another star I would. Update: My daughter trains here over 8 hours a week and loves every second.
