I can't thank them enough. I wish this place much success and I will likely drop in one of these days when I have the time. This place is clean and affordable and you get a wealth of experience in one facility. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to enhance their lives.

I joined the bootcamp and although it is hard I wake up every morning looking forward to the class. I know it will make me feel good after the workout.

Decided to not go with Midwest and went into the center today to request a refund.

The mat chats with Sensei Alex at Victory MMA are everything! He is a cool dude and understands what is truly important in life. As a parent, it is so powerful for my son to hear these messages from Sensei. My son carries this joy and focus with him to school and into our home. We have been attending MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) for a year in the 4 to 7 year old class. I love being on the bleachers in the dojo to watch the class and hear the mat chat. This helps us reinforce the message at home and also practice the moves of the month. It is very easy to get acclimated to class. Sensei Alex is kind and has a genuine passion. There are also a number of "Sensei Dads" that take the adult class and help out with the kids class. They are all such lovely people! Everyone has a smile and is excited to be in the dojo training. The energy is contagious and the kids have a lot of fun while also learning discipline, confidence and focus. We are so grateful to be part of the Victory family!

My son has been a student at Victory MMA for about 3 years (back when there were only about 4 kids…read morein the class). My hopes honestly were just to get him introduced to the mat in preparation for his future wrestling career in a way that wouldn't get him burned out like so many kids I know that get forced to wrestle at such a young age. This has turned out to be so much more than that for him. He learns more about respect and honor and making good habits than he does anything else. I've seen my son grow not just as a martial artist, but as person; inside and outside of the dojo. Sensei Alex Krotiak is absolutely amazing and it is no wonder that the class has gotten so popular that he had to add another youth class due to the overwhelming demand by parents to get their kids in his program. I absolutely love this place and all they do, I can't say enough good things about it. I would recommend Victory MMA without hesitation to anyone looking lead their children down a fulfilling journey of respect, discipline and of course, self defense.

I have been so impressed with my son's growth the past few years at Lee's Martial Arts. In the…read morebeginning he really enjoyed the classes, but attended sporadically. Over time, with gentle encouragement from Master John, he has become laser-focused on getting better at taekwondo. He has taken to heart the taekwondo tenets of courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit and applied it to everything he does in school and extracurriculars. He will soon be earning his black belt. I especially like the way Master John requires discipline but uses a sense of humor to make everything fun for the students. As students get better, they are encouraged to attend Leadership team and to assist teaching the newer students. Master John does a fantastic job teaching kids the important values of leadership that will benefit them throughout their lives. Go watch a class and you'll see students helping other students, lots of encouragement, great exercise, and fun for all.

My daughter has been attending this dojo for almost four years, and I've seen her not only become…read morephysically fit but also increase her self-confidence, maintain discipline, make true friends, and learn how to work in a team. These skills were developed thanks to Sensei O'Hara and the coaches who truly invest themselves in the training process. I also attend fitness classes here, and this place is the best for me. Our instructors are very professional and maintain a personal approach, even when we work in groups. The groups are not large and are very diverse in both gender and age. My husband says that I always return from classes happier and in a better mood. Personally, I feel much better physically and emotionally thanks to Focus Fitness. Do I recommend this place? Yes! Yes! A million times yes!

My experience is based off a winter 2022 session so not everything may apply as described by KC…read more They were not accommodating nor inclusive. This was in a co-op done through NISRA & Focus. I don't need to get into details regarding my son other than he was excluded from participating and nothing was adjusted for his specific needs. If any parent has questions please reach out to me as this might have changed. I just know that of all the life experiences in my son's life he had never felt more excluded. If we were the voice of the voiceless and the change followed I can live with that Katie. We weren't waitlisted as we are in district. I found it ironic that once my review was posted 10 positive reviews came out. I'm sure that will happen here again. Please don't ask me to reach out- as unFOCUSed and NISRA both have my contact info. YOU can reach out to me.

I trained there for about a year until I moved to the suburbs when I started at the Arlington heights location. The curriculum and quality of training at the Arlington Heights location is fantastic whether you are looking for self defense, self improvement or to compete. There is a great atmosphere, culture and community that has been built by the professors at Brazil 021. Both the staff and the students are all looking to help each other improve, learn and have a good time. I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to begin training and I recommend coming in to experience a session to all my friends, family and anyone who has had any interest in learning BJJ.
