Unfortunately I sprained my ankle later that week and when I asked for a refund, they offered me only $75 back, even though I didn't go to a single class. Not to mention, they charged everyone for the whole month when they were closed the last two weeks of the month. They should have only charged for half the month. The management is extremely scandalou and unreasonable.

I had some prior martial arts training, but never really put it all together into MMA training. Each time I drove down Washington, I would eye Sonora MMA and tell myself "I'll give it a shot oneday." Eventually, one day came and it was probably the best thing I did since moving to Sonora. Mike and Elisha are the managers and they are some of the nicest, most down to earth people you can come across. They do their best to keep the facility clean, safe, and cool. The team that trains here is non-judgmental, accepting, and occupied with the goal of improving their skills. Here is the sample schedule: Monday: either Judo or Jiujutsu, but usually jiujutsu. Tuesday: Striking with an emphasis on conditioning Wednesday, the owner, Tom Theofanopolous, teaches a world- level jiujutsu class that is really invaluable. The last 15-30 minutes of class is reserved for live rolling Thursday: Striking with the last 30-20 minutes reserved for live sparring. All in all, a real wholesome place. If you want to get/stay in shape, learn a new skill, and learn more about yourself, this is the place for you

Last Wednesday, Eric taught some great "Butterfly Sweeps." Then, we drilled techniques and sparred. Excellent training! I enjoy the challenge of training in high altitude because it humbles me as I gasp for air. LOL I encourage anyone that's in Mammoth for vacation or otherwise to visit this academy. You won't be disappointed. July 2019- I wish there was a 6 star rating. I had another great training session at Mammoth Lakes BJJ. This time I was blessed to attend a "Take Down" seminar by one of Eric's collegiate wrestlers. The guy was a great instructor! Excellent training!! As always, Eric is the nicest and most welcoming instructors I've ever met in my 2 decades of BJJ training. Thank you Eric.

I signed my son up at WCWMA when he was 11 years old, looking for a "physical outlet" for him. Not only did he transform physically, but this class did wonders for his self esteem and work ethic. Kjn Rob not only teaches the fundamentals of martial arts, but encourages his students to reach beyond their perceived limitations and set and achieve goals for themselves. Through years of training, my son reached his goal of earning his Black Belt and is now training for his 2nd Degree Belt. When people ask how I survived the adolescent years - I tell them martial arts! It was definitely one of the best decisions I've ever made in regards to my son. It gave him focus, determination and a strong sense of self.
