Arctic Training Center

"I’ve dropped by this gym a few times when I came to Chicago to visit. This gym is awesome! Everyone is really friendly and you can get some very good rolls here. The instructor, Alex, is amazing with the way he teaches and demonstrates his techniques and does great breakdowns. If you are looking for a gym in Chicago or are just in Chicago visiting and want to get some training in, definitely check this gym out!"

"Great gym for Gi and no gi jiu jitsu! A lot of active competitors, including the instructors, and great for beginners looking to learn. They also have a great Muay Thai program for anyone looking to learn, get a workout, and have fun! I love training here!"

"I am so grateful that my child joined ATC. From day one, the coaches have been nothing but supportive, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. My child was initially nervous about starting somewhere new, but the welcoming atmosphere at the school made the transition smooth and enjoyable. The training environment is both challenging and fun, striking a perfect balance between discipline and enjoyment. The coaches take time to teach the fundamentals, ensuring that each child understands the importance of technique, respect, and perseverance. They also emphasize teamwork and creating a positive community, which has been fantastic for my child's confidence and social development. My child’s experience was motivation for me to get back on the mat. So far, I have had positive experiences. The coaches and fellow ATC members are solid, respectful training partners."
