This place, the coach and his family and the studentss have had such a positive impact on my life it's almost unbelievable. I have made so many positive changes about myself I may have never made without this place. I have made some amazing friends and training partners My friends say they barely recognize me, they think I'm crazy because I spend almost all of my spare time at the gym. Rushing out of school early to try to catch the Monday class, waking up to come in and lift and roll before work. All of it because of a culture and a place that that the coach and his family have cultivated. After the military I was lost. For years I felt like I was just wandering around without a purpose, I have found purpose again and I hope that I can give back even a fraction of what I have gotten out.
Emailed coach Ed about starting the adult program. I let him know it had been years since I had done any grappling and that I was horribly out of shape, to say the least. He responded back promptly and invited me for a week of free classes. I was hooked on day 1. The instruction is top notch, the students are awesome and the environment is great. No egos whatsoever. I ended up signing my daughter up for the junior classes and they are great too. Coach Ed and his Junior Instructors do an awesome job of teaching and mentoring the kids regardless of skill level and personality. It has to be tough managing so many personalities; from adult students, teenagers, children, and parents... but they make it look easy.
Next Level is much more than a fitting name. Ed Bean and his staff of instructors are all extremely knowledgeable and experienced in the martial arts they train others in. Additionally, their ability to connect and teach MMA to children has been amazing to watch. Very attentive, and patient, yet on point in giving them the information and proper techniques to learn and succeed. Ed and his family are genuine, good hearted, down to earth people. They have created an atmosphere that is truly extraordinary. I would highly recommend Next Level to anyone considering the MMA experience.
If you’re looking to learn to defend yourself, get in shape, or compete: next level alliance is the place to be. Coach Ed is very knowledgeable, professional, and an all around good guy. My health, confidence, and well being are at an all time high because of this martial art and the training we do on a weekly basis. 10/10 would recommend next level alliance to anyone even slightly interested in joining! I make a 40 minute drive everyday after work just to come to this gym, even though there are gyms that are closer to home. I do this because I know the quality of teaching I am receiving from coach Ed. Love this place and my jiu jitsu family!
Next level martial arts is simply the best place to go if you are wanting to better yourself. If you want to get into better shape, more self confidence, ability to protect yourself and the ones you love if you are simply wanting a family of brothers and sisters who will support you on any journey through martial arts this is the place for you. Amazing instructors. Ed, Toni and Jason have so much knowledge it would be a waste to not come in and experience what they have to offer our communities.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO MY FIRST CLASS?
For your first visit, comfortable athletic clothing works perfectly — a t-shirt and shorts or athletic pants. Once you commit to training regularly, you'll want to invest in a gi (kimono). Our coaches can recommend quality options at a range of price points.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I TRAIN?
