I cannot begin to say how incredible this gym is. I dropped in as a blue belt from NJ to take a…read moreprivate class with Professor Carlos and wow! I didn't know what to expect given that I had the opportunity to train with a coral belt, and was nervous about being judged or not measuring up to established expectations. I was welcomed to his gym as though I had been training there for years. I never once felt judged, criticized, or anything negative that I may have received from other gyms around the country. Professor Carlos not only helped me to fine-tune the techniques that I currently have under my belt (pun intended), but also taught me better ways to execute some of the escapes and sweeps that I already had learned. His style is very technical driven so leave your strength at home and keep an open mind that being physically strong will only take you so far in his class. I truly cannot wait to come back and train here when I visit South Florida. If you have an opportunity to train with Professor Carlos DO IT!! **HINT** **HINT** Being humble will take you far, and will open a world of knowledge and opportunity from one of the best technical fighters in this country. Respect goes a long way and respect goes both directions.

Love ATT Fort Lauderdale! Let me preface by saying that I started out doing Muay Thai and…read moregrappling while living in LA and went to several martial arts gyms over the years. When I moved to Florida, I was searching for a place where I could continue training in an environment that valued respect, had a good philosophy on life, discipline, and fighting, and where I would least likely to be hit on (I took the availability of kids classes as an indication that this was a safe place.) After reading all of the reviews online (google), checking out their extensive Facebook and instagram pages and giving them a call, I started taking group Muay Thai classes a few years back with Coach Luis. Due to a move, I stopped my membership for a couple years but when I contacted ATT again several months ago to take private Muay Thai classes, I was welcomed back warmly. I have only good things to say about ATT Ft. Lauderdale, the instructors (Coach Luis), front desk (thank you Filipe and Caroline!), and even fellow students whom I've met while there. Although I have not participated in the events (Halloween night for kids, End of the Year party at the beach and even a birthday party for Coach Junior), the environment is incredibly family friendly and community-building. And when I say family friendly, I mean they have a rocker and changing table in the lounge area right before the womens bathroom, and one dad felt comfortable bringing his infant in a carseat/stroller to class - the baby hung out on the side and throughout the class, different guys went over to check on the baby. When my daughter turns 3, I hope to bring her to try the kids classes. That's a testament to how comfortable feel about this gym. Here are some additional thoughts: - Great workouts with Coach Luis where I'm never bored, always sweaty and sore afterwards, and always learning new techniques. He keeps me interested, motivated and excited for the next class by changing it up between holding pads, bag work, stations, cardio, abs, etc. and working through "what if" scenarios if I have questions. He tailors workouts and pushes me to improve. - They really try to accommodate my schedule for private classes which made it possible for me to get back into Muay Thai. - Facilities are kept clean (did a deep clean one Friday morning while I was there and all the furniture was moved around). After returning from my hiatus, I found that they made improvements to the space. Seems like they are always trying to improve. - Front desk is super friendly, responsive, and accommodating when I had questions or had to reschedule private classes. They text! I'm always greeted at the door and they know students by name. - Seems to value feedback for improvement - they sent out a questionnaire and I don't know if it's a coincidence but something I commented on was addressed a couple weeks later. - Parking can be tricky depending on when/what day you go. There are some spaces available in front of the gym or you can chance it and park on the gravel across the street, next to the train tracks that says permit only. Overall, I found ATT Ft. Lauderdale to be a great place to train and would highly recommend it.

Instructors are up to date with techniques not like that old Gracie stuff.

Ms. Leila was more than happy to do so. In the email she forgot to mention that pausing can be only done for two months (like she said that's in contract- so if you have kids attending several activities I'm sure every busy parent reads every single contract). They renew his regular membership without any kind of notification and got me for almost $500 and acting like it's completely ok. I would 100% avoid this place.

Carl gives each student attention, beginner or pro. He is an avid fan of martial arts and loves to help people work hard for their fitness goals. If you are looking for a place to make new friends, learn new things, or to stay disciplined, Coach Carl @ Rock MMA is the man to go to! Before I trained, I was struggling with mental health issues and as a young man I felt so lost. Carl leads by example for all ages of his students, children or adult. He sincerely wants to help you build your best self. Now I am a mixed martial artist, I have stepped in competitive arenas I never thought I would, and I have learned how to win. Without these gifts from Carl, I would not feel so proud of the work I have put in!
