"This is my new home for BJJ training and I couldn't be happier. Professor JE is a great instructor and very inspiring as an athlete and a leader. Professors Dan and Law are also great instructors and training partners, it has been a pleasure learning from everyone. My daughter also really enjoys training jiu-jitsu and the youth sports performance classes."

"I came in for a trial class and immediately wanted to sign up. Everyone here is welcoming and willing to help you grow as an athlete and a martial artist. John and staff have created an awesome community, if you want to improve your game stop by, you’ll love it. Glad to call this gym my home away from home."
Jen Salas
"Very clean and organized 24/7 fitness facility. This facility is veteran owned, skill focused, family oriented, and overall good vibes. The owners are so welcoming and pays attention to all of their patrons. All the coaches have been amazing and attentive! Not only does this gym offer a discount for veterans.. but they also support active duty, first responders, teachers and students/children. There is so many benefits to joining this gym but the support that you get when you walk in is the biggest reward! Jujitsu, MMA, boxing, and fitness for both adult and children classes are offered here! JE set me up with a workout and nutrition plan and is helping me with my weight loss journey and it’s been nothing but amazing! Coach JE is so informative and will absolutely make sure you are putting work in! If you are in the El Paso or the Fort bliss area check this place out! You won’t regret it!"
Erica Goss
"I can't say enough great things about this Academy. Stellar facility, solid instructors, genuine community and a wide range of offerings to suite your needs. Whether you're looking to continue your health journey, up your Jiu jitsu game or even lift weights in a clean and welcoming environment, this is the place for you. Family friendly and supportive of Law enforcement/Military, first responders and educators. The facility is 24/7 so this is a great way to get training and fitness into your schedule, no matter how busy you are. I highly recommend checking out AoA and seeing what they are all about."
