I was invited to attend a trial class at WNY MMA & Fitness and I’m glad I did. Their crew of both coaches & fellow students are awesome. Always greeted with a friendly smile at the door and they approach teaching in a way that allows for even the most novice of newcomers to begin their journey of learning. They meet you where you are at skill-wise, and allow for a proper introduction to any of their many arts including MMA, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), Muay Thai, Boxing, Wrestling, and Judo. I personally have a 15+yr history of bodybuilding and powerlifting so I know the value of avoiding injury. No sport is 100% safe from injury, but I’ve had a few key experiences here that show me they value safe training and try to minimize unnecessary injury to staff & students. The value of that approach alone is priceless in this space. Their coaches and professors are top talent in their fields. Anyone from beginner to professional and anything in between can benefit from training at this gym. They have great systems in place for sanitization which is another huge aspect of these types of gyms. Skin issues and injuries can both stop training/improvement dead in its tracks, so their clear dedication to preventing both is appreciated. My review is based on about 12 classes of No Gi BJJ and 1 class of Gi BJJ. I am quickly seeing this will work similar to BB/Powerlifting in that showing up and putting in effort will yield results. I live about 1hr away and do not regret my choice of gym. Excited to see what growth and improvement the next few months bring. I do recommend this gym. If you are curious, go in, chat with someone and try a free class, you will be glad you did!

It was my 1st time taking a class for boxing and jiu-jitsu, I was so nervous not knowing what to expect. My experience was so phenomenal that I signed up for future one on one classes. I’m excited for my next class, I felt really good and relieved when leaving out. Steve is a great trainer, I appreciate him and his skills. In the future, I look forward to also working with other trainers for one on one classes. Please enjoy my sneak peak video from my 1st boxing class, don’t judge lol I was super exhausted the video was recorded at the end of my class. Shout out to the guy at the front desk for the great video lol everyone is amazing there 🥰.

In April, my husband called several MMA gyms to obtain Info to sign our 12yo son up for classes. WNY MMA was the ONLY gym to return our call and is also the furthest one from our home in the southtowns. We brought our son in for a free trial class and ended up signing him up immediately. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE is friendly, kind and welcoming, from the staff, trainers & coaches to fellow gym members. We just signed our son up for his 2nd 6 months and could not be happier to make the trip from the southtowns (pretty much 5-6 days a week). His confidence has grown tremendously. 10/10 would recommend WNY MMA! We are grateful!

Been coming here for a few months now and I’m In love with it. Friendly coaches and staff full of knowledge that will patiently answer to all your questions and make you feel welcome and break that “beginner insecurities” of being in a new place. large variety of classes! a Free women self defense lessons every Sundays! Place is big with a lot of space, and they even have a well equipped open gym to workout aside of classes. Can’t recommend it enough
