The first time I went here was when my hubby took me with him. I was so proud of him for losing so…read moremuch weight and getting toned! After seeing his results, I thought I'd give it a try. I usually prefer going to the gym, and had never tried a boxing workout, but decided to go for it! First off, he warned me to bring lots of water and a towel. Boy was he right! As soon as you walk into the spot, you can break a sweat right there! They like to keep it warm inside, so if this is your first time boxing, you might have to step outside and take a breather! Haha! The workout was an hour long. I like how we warmed up first outside and got our blood flowing. As you walk inside, the trainers explain to you the equipment and what you will be doing that day. Me for instance, I've never ever boxed before, so of course I asked a bunch of questions, how my form was, how to box, etc. The trainers were so nice and helpful. I enjoyed practicing on the bags, getting in the ring, and having fun. The workout you get is very intense, and totally worth it! I will definitely be back for some more training sessions!

My son has been attending the Little Dragons (ages 4-6yo) class here at American Dragon 3X per week…read moresince the fall of 2015. We started him off at another martial arts academy, but quickly moved him here after my husband did some research and found this place. The style they practice is Jeet Kune Do. Since our son began attending classes, we have noticed improvement in his confidence and self-control/discipline. He also is respectful to his elders, calling them sir & m'am, which I'm pretty sure he learned from coming here too...they always stress making sure the students have eye contact when being spoken to and that they always shake hands and say "thank you sir/m'am". They have a monthly mantra (or lesson) to teach children about confidence, integrity, perseverance (never giving up), etc. Our son seems to really enjoy attending classes, and is so proud every time he graduates to a new belt (he just got his 3rd - orange). We love that this is a family owned business. All of the staff takes the time to learn everyone's names and they are all really friendly and personable, not only with the students but also the parents who come to watch class each day. They happily listen to any of the concerns we ever have with our son and his behavior, or anything we need to address, which is very rare. American Dragon offers summer camp, after care, and camp on days when Broward County schools are closed. They offer classes for children, all the way up to adults. Sifu Helena even teaches womens' self-defense courses every so often. They also have gatherings a few times per year (a fall pot-luck and Halloween party just to name a few), which is always a fun time for the students/kids to get together and play. Their costume Halloween party is great! Oh, and they also offer "Parent's Night Out" every month or so, which is great for parents to get a little date night for a few hours on a Friday night :-). Anyway, we definitely recommend coming here if you're looking to enroll your child into a martial arts program. They offer a 6-week intro course I believe (which is what we did before signing him up full-time). And you renew every 6 months (or year perhaps).

Amazing place to help kids become responsible, respectful and confident. The techniques used here…read moreare not just "fighting skills". They teach respect and responsibility in and out of the classroom. Even the ability to test for the next level (belt) is predicated on performance in school, home and class. The parents and their teacher have to sign for the testing! The kids have a seemingly good time in class. They are focused and there is a very even distribution of attention from the teachers to each student so no one student is left out. The owners (Sifu Helana and Sifu Neil) are both readily available and ALWAYS take the time to make each person feel important and address any concerns or questions - no matter how trivial. As a former student, I'm happy and proud to say my children are now students here! ASSA!!!!!!

It is more strenuous and demanding than what I'm doing in Michigan. As a result, I feel stronger. If I am unable to do an exercise, the trainers will modify it or have me do something else.

I feel so good and energized that I want to go to every class until I leave for Michigan on March 1.

What I love most about the atmosphere is that you don't have to be anything but yourself and you don't have to be a fitness expert. There are so many different fitness levels, ages and backgrounds of people that are working on themselves for their own reasons and goals. I enjoy how each session is different from the last and the class sizes are just perfect; some days there are 2/3 of us and other times a group of 10/11. It gives a nice personal touch and sense of 1:1 training. I'm looking forward to continuing my personal fitness goals here at this gym.

I visited a few BJJ schools but I was always intimidated and overwhelmed by the competitive mindsets of individuals and overall atmosphere in the gyms. However, BTT was completely different - I have never faced anyone who wants to simply "dominate" me - rather, regardless of their rank and experience in BJJ, everyone has the mindset of 'we're all here to learn'! Super friendly, humble and genuine people who truly care about the art as well as their community. Most importantly, Prof Joao Amaral is very knowledgeable and compassionate teacher! He always makes you feel that he cares for all of his students - from a 10 year old girl to an much older student! BTT recently opened the new mats - not to mention their workout equipments including power rack, pull up bar, kettle bells, and other functional workout tools. Not only the BTT offers amazing lessons in BJJ, but offers Muay Thai/kick boxing classes under the instruction of Matt, who is an amazing teacher. Whether your goal is to learn how to protect yourself from much stronger and bigger people OR to simply loose weights, BTT will provide all the opportunities you can learn to have much healthier and happier life!

Our whole family loves Kimura Brazilian Jiu Jitsu!…read more Both of my daughters and my husband train here, and my girls actually started as young as 3 years old. They absolutely love it, and as a parent, I see so many benefits. It's amazing for discipline, keeps kids active and in shape, and most importantly -- teaches them confidence and self-defense. Honestly, I feel like this kind of training helps prevent bullying situations because kids learn how to stand up for themselves. There are classes for different age groups, as well as programs for adults, which makes it great for the whole family. The first trial class is free, which is a great way to try it out. For the trial, kids are provided with a school uniform -- sometimes it may be a bit big, but that's totally fine just for the first class. After that, you can purchase the proper uniform in your child's size (usually includes a T-shirt, pants, gi jacket, and belt). Kids typically train about twice a week, and older students can attend more often. The staff is always polite, respectful, and very patient with kids -- they really know how to connect with different personalities. The coaches are charismatic, engaging, and know how to keep children interested and motivated. Another big plus -- convenient parking, and parents can stay and watch the class while sitting comfortably on a bench. The facility also has two restrooms and a water fountain. Overall, we're very happy we found this place. Highly recommend for families looking for a supportive and structured environment for their kids!
