Everything in my previous review stands. What I would like to add here is a bit about the kids…read moreprogram at WNY MMA. For a long time I saw the kids program from a distance even though I train with the two people who coach the kids (and love training with them). When I had my best friend's 5yo stay with me for two weeks though, I got a very good look at how the kids program runs and really want to share that experience to help others looking for a good, safe, supportive environment for their kids to blow of steam and gain self-confidence. There are five class options per week: 2 days of jiu jitsu, 1 day of wrestling, and 2 days of kick boxing. Coach Matt and Coach Cavemen start the kids with warmups and stretches, then do games and some time focused on technique. The kids have an absolute blast, are encouraged to engage each other respectfully, and are rewarded with high fives and the chance to earn class champion. D was a little uncertain at first. He was visiting so he didn't know the other kids except for one he met right before his first class. Over the course of the next two weeks both coaches were able to draw him out of his shell until he was just as enthusiastic as the other kids. They were aware of his body language and often realized that when he just stood there not participating it was because he was unsure how to do whatever they were doing, so one of them would come over and walk him through whatever it was. Both coaches are great with the kids and have a ton of patience (on top of both being excellent at the techniques they are teaching). There are two age group options and both groups are full of kids who clearly love being there. I've been training here for over a year and am really glad that I got a chance to experience another aspect of the gym that I hadn't paid close attention before. I would definitely recommend this as a great experience for kids.

Though I hope they have options to freeze because there are times that we just can't do it but we can't cancel and just have to pay even though we can't come to class. They did send reminders if you missed quite a bit of class. Currently my kids is on red belts with black stripe. They also have social events like pot luck for the students, awards, summer party, fund raise. They also do tournaments.

My son has grown in so many ways to learn and appreciate, and I have seen firsthand his growth in self-confidence, respect and physical fitness. The students are all a family among themselves. I encourage everyone to take up their offer for a free trial program. I even mentioned to the staff that it should be recommended that every parent do a trial membership when they sign-up their child. Even what appears to be a very simple class when they first start, it's so much more of a good workout than what it appears to be.

There was so much I learned from 1 class that I am wanting my sisters to take the class as well! It's not intimidating once you get started. Jen and Robin make you feel comfortable! Every woman should take the class! Definitely worth it!!!

I will update my review after I've trained here longer, as I'm still a newbie, but I am so…read moreimpressed with Spar I had to jump right in on a review. (This review is only for the Brazilian JiuJitsu program.) I haven't trained in a few years, but between BJJ and karate I've trained in martial arts for at least a decade. Have trained at a few different area schools and done seminars all over the state. Professor Eduardo Barboza is the real deal. Not only is he an accomplished competitor and IBJJF ranked athlete, he's also genuine, kind, encouraging, humble and professional. He's also very thorough. I love that there are multiple classes offered each day, and several different types: basics, beginner and all levels. It's a great variety, and they are adding additional classes in no gi next month (July 2021.) The facility is always super clean, students and staff are friendly. Rates are very comparable to other schools, no contracts. I'm excited to be training here and honored to be able to train with Professor Barboza.
