What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Coldwell Banker High Desert Realty

"Grandbaby is at the age now where she can start doing some of this BJJ. Happy with her first class"

Aryah

"I like it it’s a great experience for your kids all the kids are kind to each other"

Michael “Newmie” Newman

"Small dojo, well equipped, with big energy & big hearted leaders. 🇧🇷 🇺🇸❤️ I haven’t been able to train there yet, and I am only here in lovely Gallup NM a few days for a wedding. But I did stop in quickly, and came back the next day to watch some instructional sessions. The coaches take training & patience to a new level. Children here ENJOY it very very much! Really! There is no push, no attitudes, nor hassling. For a sport that can elevate quickly, the key to maintaining refreshing calmness is redolent from the moment you walk in. It’s great when one finds a community-oriented gym that can be trusted, and allows outsiders to venture in. For the outsider new to the area? The welcoming spirit can be humbling. 😔🙏🏽🙏🏿🙏 **Keep your hands up & Keep moving forward! 🙌 ** 🥋 MMA - Muay Thai - BJJ - Boxing 🥊 {Se habla Espanol/street parking}"

Xander Lutz

"I was just passing through, and was super happy about the friendship and close knit camaraderie I found at Megaton. I am a higher ranking belt but I train at sea level. The local team was polite and didn’t take advantage of me because I couldn’t breathe. Thanks guys!"
