Champion Karate in Memphis has been a great place for me to restart training after years away. I…read moretrained at another school a long time ago, and Shihan Josh allowed me to return at my last ranked belt and keep progressing toward my black belt. He teaches in a way that makes techniques practical for real life, and he does not force a one-size-fits-all approach. He emphasizes repetition, accountability, and steady improvement, and it shows in every class. The mix of ages is great, and everyone is held to the same standard. If you are considering signing up, you will not regret it.

Onsite credentialed trainers can work with you 1-on-1, or you can join a fitness workshop. I've been a member for over a year, and see this place as hands-down far better than the corporate gyms. No distracting yoga or spinning classes. My quality of self-confidence has greatly increased since joining. Want even more results? Sign up with a personal trainer and their nutrition program. I've lost 14 lbs of flab and put on 10 lbs muscle in the year. Well on my way to my goals. Staff are very friendly and supportive.. whether you're a beginner or seasoned power lifter.

Figured I'd look like a dork, wasn't fit enough, old gym injuries would slow me down, and more. Finally scheduled a class and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

My son has been training at Midtown Krav Maga and Jiu Jitsu for over a year in the kids' classes…read more Josh (the owner) and all his instructors are awesome with the kids. It has really improved my son's confidence and coordination, and it's a relief to know he's able to defend himself if need be. The kids' classes are both krav maga and bjj (they have classes 4 evenings a week, with a gi two days, without a gi the other two), so they get grappling and striking experience. After his first class, my son said he enjoyed it and would like to come back. A year later, he has a 6 foot tall grappling dummy, a punching bag, mats for grappling in the living room, and he told me when he grows up he wants to own a krav/bjj gym. So I recommend Midtown Krav Maga and Jiu Jitsu to anyone looking for a positive, practical way for their kids to learn self defense and maybe find a new obsession.

Zach is amazing and very understanding, all of the instructors are nice, helpful and invested in your fitness journey. This is an excellent workout, where you'll leave dripping sweat, and feel stronger than when you came in. Additionally, this is a great and healthy means of stress relief. It really is a gem in Midtown! Pro tip: eat a light snack beforehand, come hydrated, and bring water - you'll need it!

You can lose upwards of 500 calories a class and sometimes people tell me that and I look at them all skeptical...but there is no doubt here...at all. I can barely walk the three days afterwards. Just bought some pink gloves and wraps so I can go here on the regular! I'm getting in shape, y'all!

I am visiting from out of town this week and I needed a place to work out....b/c all I do is eat when I'm in Memphis. I just happened to find UFK online via martial arts search and I'm glad that I did. They just moved to a new location and the facility is very nice. I've been taking the kickboxing classes every day this week and...YES!! I'M SORE! The lactic acid buildup is fabulous. The bags that they use are muay thai bags - so they're VERY solid/hard....great for conditioning the shins (if you plan on using them as lethal weapons). Every class I've taken this week has been different - Tony and John shake things up, keep it interesting, keep you moving....and if you're not soaked by the end of class, you're slacking. They also do personal training and other martial arts. Highly recommended.
