What members say

From the reviews
As a parent whose son had struggled with social anxiety and had a difficult time fitting in with kids his own age, I can vividly recall the sense of surprise and relief I felt when I first brought him to this exceptional facility.
I started my Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Catch Wrestling journey along side my son at the Snake Pit USA gym for the obvious 40 year old reasons. And I couldn’t have been happier with my decision.
The coaches are world class!!! My son has gone there from age 7. The discipline is matched with equal praise at effort. Coach Dale has a phenomenal way of working with the kids. He has a way of not only being their coach but also their friend.
We have been with Snake Pit for a little of a year(we have previously tried 2 other schools) and have nothing but an amazing experience from day 1. Head Coach, Joel Bane, has been an amazing asset in our childrens growth in the sport.
Your first kickboxing class at Snake Pit U.S.A. Mixed Martial Arts Academy/Machado Jiu-Jitsu
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
