Samuel Joseph, the head instructor, is so warm and welcoming that you feel comfortable immediately. The studio pairs the seriousness of hard work, discipline, and grit required of any martial art such as jiu-jitsu with the lightness and warmth of family and friends. It is an exceptional place to train, with a very special culture. It is rare to come across any business with clients as loyal as Buckhead Jiu-Jitsu, and that is thanks to the tireless efforts of Sam and all those involved. I always leave class energized, inspired, and grateful and hope that if you're reading this review that you will come on Saturday morning to try out the intro BJJ class. I can guarantee that you will not regret it. Buckhead Jiu-Jitsu, almost overnight, transformed my conception of the sport and my involvement in it from a dabbling hobby to a lifelong endeavor to improve, compete, and one day receive my black belt. Thank you Sam and everyone at Buckhead Jiu-Jitsu in Atlanta for being such a positive influence on my life!

I felt welcomed as soon as I came in. I loved how clean the facilities were and the amenities. The gym has a solid women's team and the competition training is top notch.

Overall it was a good experience and the class is run by an amazing coral belt which I have never seen before so that's amazing to see!

Even the most advanced black belts take the time to make sure you feel comfortable with the movements and understand why you're doing what you're doing. The community is top notch and everyone supports each other both in and out of the gym. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking to begin their BJJ journey. Also, their kids program is incredible. I believe it starts at 5 years old and the kids have a blast while learning discipline and self defense at the same time. Definitely check it out!

Not to mention it is the top rates premiere gym in the Atlanta area. My first session went great with me learning basic boxing and kicking techniques/ combos. The coach/ owner taught the class personally. While teaching, he made sure to communicate with me personally and train me at a beginner level. I plan to train their 6 days a week, and I am looking forward to the opportunity Bangkok Boxing is giving me to grow. Facilities are state of the art, and the atmosphere was very welcoming. You get plenty value for your dollar with unlimited session Muay Thai, Fitness kickboxing, and boxing. If you do see any lower star reviews they seem to all be personal issues the person had with the gym. Nothing to do with the quality or team working there. Also most lower start reviews are from people not being able to get out of the contract once it is signed. Do net let this deter you from visiting. These are individual financial banking problems that in no way represents Bangkok Boxing and its teaching.

That's why the Saturday 10am kickboxing class is so disappointing. The instructor is often late, on his phone, disengaged, and brings zero energy or motivation to the class.

Practicing any one of these disciplines will get you in the best shape of your life and X3 has the staff in place to help you meet your goals. Tony Tucci in particular has been a transformational coach who really cares about the growth of his students and inspires them to keep pushing themselves. It seriously has been life changing and I cannot recommend this gym (all locations) to those that are ready to take their health and fitness to the next level. All you have to do is commit to show up, and the instructors at X3 will do the rest.

This also meant cancelling the 7:30 am weight lifting class. Class schedules continue to shrink but you're still paying the full price. Leadership completely ignores emails. And the gym is NOT built for women. No 7, 12, or 17lb weights available. Such a deeply disappointing experience. Coach Wilder, Cam, and Jason are the only good things left here. DONT JOIN.

I was primarily looking for a school that addressed three things that other Atlanta schools can't provide: 1) a diversified experience with multiple disciplines, 2) an actual curriculum that would provide structure to the various lessons, and a path to future belt tests, and 3) some sort of supplemental training that would reinforce what is taught in the dojo. I joined Evolution X and while I have not been a student for very long, it provides all of these things and more: several different martial arts disciplines; a calendar and curriculum that indicates what will be taught, and when (and when it will be repeated in the future); and a super helpful library of online training resources that covers every lesson as you advance through the belts. From a teaching and training perspective, this is a very well-managed school. On top of this, I've found that the other students are helpful and supportive - and respectful of new students (myself included) - making the experience a positive one. Net net: Josh Moree runs a top-notch school for kids and adults alike, and if you are looking to learn about multiple disciplines for comprehensive martial arts training, Evolution X delivers!

I would love to train regularly with Sensei Moree but live in Roswell so doing the drive regularly would be difficult. I come from a different background in martial arts (Yoshukai), so most of the things I was exposed to during the seminars were new to me. Sensei Moree and the other students were extremely helpful and patient with me. They made me feel very welcome, which is not always the case when visiting different styles of martial arts schools. He is a great teacher and explains techniques very well. AKJ incorporates different styles/disciplines in the training- which I think is excellent. If you are considering starting training in martial arts, I highly recommend AKJ. I am confident in saying you won't regret the decision. Osu!
