Mack Training Academy

“A gem of an academy in North Dakota. The instructor and students alike are professional, friendly and devoted to sharpening their craft while maintaining a safe, positive, and disciplined training environment. They put in some serious effort so be prepared to train your heart out!”

“I’ve known this guy for many years now and every time we get together he always blows my mind with a perspective I’ve never considered. He has razor sharp jiujitsu yet still keeps an open mind to learn from anyone. As great as he is on the mats, he’s even better outside of them. He’s an incredible leader for kids and adults. Go check him out, you won’t regret it!”

“I’ve been rolling off and on with Professor Joey Mack over the past year and a half and have always enjoyed his instruction, technique, knowledge of the art, and professionalism. I finally had a chance to visit his gym today and am very impressed; it has a relaxing yet professional atmosphere. Everyone in class was attentive and focused on his detailed and easily understood instructions and demonstrations; he always asks if anyone has any questions after his demonstrations and ensures everyone understands before practicing. All of his students are very well-rounded and caught me off guard with their speed skills a few times! That’s always a sign of a great instructor. I will definitely be coming back again and highly recommend anyone who is in the Hazen area or is willing to travel a bit to check this gym out.”

“The self defense class with Joey was so much fun while also learning a lot of valuable skills. It was perfect as a mom/daughter class. I’m so glad for this experience before they go to college and highly recommend!”

“I was very excited when I found this place and wasn’t disappointed. The professor and coach are super nice and encouraging, and everyone is very respectful! Even after just a few weeks, their Jiu Jitsu classes are definitely something I look forward to. It’s a great place to learn self defense and gain confidence and coordination!”
