Chloe Prior
"Hands-down the best club in Yorkville for jiu-jitsu, MMA and so much more! My husband has had incredible success through Coach Chris' dedication, patience, and kindness. AXT is heavily involved with many local events and has a strong focus on community. Classes for kids and classes for women help solidify that jiu-jitsu is a sport for anyone - I love that it's not the stereotypical "boys club", everyone is so welcoming and friendly."
Jon Owens
"Wonderful school in Yorkville. Teaches jiu jitsu and MMA for the streets. A great place to exercise and a very chill environment. Beginners and experienced practioners are welcome. Has kids classes and adult. Open every day but Fridays."
Abdul-Mateen Suddeth
"This gym is in a wonderful location, it’s clean, organized and well decorated. Walking in, it give spa vibes. Behind the visual is an amazing group of students who are lead by exceptional instructors. I came as a traveler, looking for a place to roll while I was in town. I was welcomed with open arms and made to feel as if I was a member of the gym and appreciated for attending their class. If you’re looking to join a gym let this be it. The culture of a gym is the most important aspect. Even if there is top ranked instruction, the culture would run people away. The culture here is top tier. Everyone was willing to embrace me and even help and teach me and even take instruction from me. The instructors want you to learn and have the heart of teachers. Knowledgeable and teaches this in a practical sense. I can’t wait to return to this place in the future and see the growth of the gym as a whole and those I rolled with while there. I hope you guys much success moving forward."
Max Sucilla
"This club is my home! Jiujitsu has changed my life in a way that will forever be held by AXT. Coach Chris, coach Kyle, and the rest are amazing teachers, and are always eager to not only teach, but listen to their students, and potential students. My children (ages 10, 7, and 6) are always excited about class and constantly beg me to take them to more classes. If you’re thinking about joining, DO IT!"
