Full disclosure, I have not trained here. I have popped in a few times to talk with the owner Paul,…read moreand in the course of visiting, I have observed a few classes. More disclosure, I am not trained in Muay Thai. My background is in Okinawan Karate, military combatives (Marine Corps), and jiu-jitsu. However, having been around a few years, I can tell when a dojo/academy is serious about training. Metayo Muay Thai Academy is serious about training. Don't believe me? Go in and hear the sounds of kicks and knees hitting pads. Watch the students warm-up themselves and get ready for action. Paul doesn't need to make people warm up or cajole people into working...people work because they want to be there. If you are serious about martial arts, serious about a workout, or even serious about competing, I would recommend you go here. Oh yes, the City recently promoted Metayo Academy on their Instagram page. Check it out here! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DEoN_3ahDte/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

In addition, he creates a welcoming environment that is conducive to learning, with no shortage of interesting and funny stories. Since training with Master Paul, I've seen improvement to my health and my confidence in defending myself. If you are at all interested, I highly recommend observing or trying a class to see if it's a fit for you.

Then 2 months in they said they were changing to a per class basis and that the rest of my money would be used to pay per class. I was attending class every day and would have used up my (unlimited year) of training in a couple months. I got SCAMMED and a waste of hard earned money. What's worse, I went back some time later and they offered me a lifetime membership for $3000. Seriously? I'm going to give them more money so they can change my contract again?

I have been involved in martial arts/combative sports for over two decades in both my personal and…read moreprofessional life; thus I understand what it takes to make a outstanding martial art school. Elite MA brings to all attending students (beginning or advanced) a paramount level of professionalism and quality of both instruction and insight. The result is that the coaches have created an atmosphere inside the school where anyone can benefit and make the most of themselves. On a personal level, I can say that the years that I have spent at Elite MA have allowed to maintain a level of tenacity and strength that I once thought would fade as I approached middle-age. Thanks to everyone at Elite MA for making me a better fighter, and a better person. I don't want to train anywhere else!
