In combat sports, you need to find someone you trust. When I moved from California, it took me two years to find this gym. I feel so blessed to have met everyone at MTC. They have elevated me as a fighter and as a human being. If you are looking to learn the discipline of combat sports, from not only great coaches but wonderful people, look no further than MTC. If you want to reach your fitness goals and take your time to understand the fundamentals, then implement what you learned throughout your entire life, MTC will be by your side to help. If you are at the beginning or at the advanced stages of your fighting career, MTC is your home. I hope you join and call it the same. read more

Did a trial session and decided to sign up for a couple of classes until I finished my membership elsewhere. Decided to not go with Midwest and went into the center today to request a refund. Management forged my signature saying, they needed it to give me the contract that was never sent in the first place. Never used any of the classes. Said I was still welcome to come. Who would want to come after management pulling shady stuff like this. All that was presented at time of purchase was the typical waiver you could get hurt. Don't get scammed like me ASK FOR A CONTRACT! Suggestions? read more

As a former full time Mixed Martial artist and fighter, and a current boxer, I can say that Midwest Training Center is an A- level facility with the best mma coaching staff in the midwest. Alex Trujillo is a specialist in all things MMA, and has produced several top tier fighters and many great athletes all around. They have great programs, and one of the best conditioning coach's and systems in the country ( Daniel Finnegan). If you are looking to develop yourself into a top notch fighter, just learn martial arts such as wrestling, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, or Kickboxing, or just want to get into the best shape of your life, please do yourself a favor and go to M.T.C. rather than wasting your money on another MMA gym that is not nearly up to the same standards. Tell them the "Russian Concussion" sent you :) read more

I've been training here for 1.5 years now and let me just say this is exactly the environment a fighter needs to push the limits. This place is perfect for just simply getting in shape and having fun as well a real fighters gym. MTC has a wide range of ages that train there giving it a very family friendly place to train. Everyone is treated with respect and encouraged to test the limits. The coach's on the team are extremely accommodating and helpful in helping you reach your goals and become a stronger YOU. The techniques are straight to the point and provide practical situations that may occur in a fight. When I first came to MTC my flame burnt out but the first day I walked into MTC, that vicious flame sparked once more. Overall, highly recommend to any beginner and professional fighter!!! read more
