OutFox MMA is hands down one of the best mixed martial arts schools in the area. The attention to detail the instructors have with all their students, especially with the kids is second to none! The coaches at the school are unmatched when it comes to preparing all students for tournaments, but also with Life skills needed not only in mixed martial arts but every day to WIN and Respect their competition! Can't say enough good things about this school and the family environment they create to help ALL students develope, no matter what their level is!

We settled on Outfox after trying several local gyms. The staff and students at Outfox are extraordinarily welcoming and friendly. They're passionate about martial arts and eager to pass that passion on to newcomers. Some of the other gyms we tried made it seem like new students were a burden. The instruction is very good, with clear details provided on each subject. The gym is clean and seems well maintained. The fees are very reasonable. There are multiple classes in both BJJ & Muay Thai each week, so no matter your schedule they probably have something to fit you. If you're considering BJJ, Muay Thai or a blend of both, you owe it to yourself to check out this school.

My five year old son has been taking mixed martial arts with Coach Marc, and I can’t say enough kind things. His patience is second to none, and he is a true role model for the kids in his class. Everyone I’ve encountered at Outfox gym is so nice and supportive. The little ninja class my son is in has helped so much with his discipline and respect. I can see he is growing stronger and learning self defense moves that he practices at home. I am so grateful that I found this place, and a would recommend them to anyone looking for a class, no matter their age.

Outfox MMA is an outstanding gym to start at, no matter what level of experience you have. I recently started training here for Muay Thai thinking it would be an intimidating environment, but the coaches and fighters are nice and welcoming. Coach Marc and Coach Eric are very accommodating and are happy to help you with any questions you might have. Kenxie, the lady at the front desk also sets a welcoming tone for the whole gym. Overall, an experience that I would suggest to anyone interested in Muay Thai/ BJJ.

A very welcoming atmosphere (After speaking one on one with the owner "head sensei" he has addressed some of the bad situations to try and make changes for the better. If improvements are made this can be a great dojo again.) *** Many changes have been made for the betterment of this organization, the discipline is starting to show in all age groups as well as movements are being corrected when being done improperly. Keep up the great work Coach Mark and Coach Zoey as a team you are making wonderful progress! ***

Frequently Asked Questions

IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?

Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at OutFox MMA. It's the best way to experience our training environment, meet our coaches, and see if BJJ is right for you. No experience or equipment needed — comfortable athletic clothing is fine.

DO I NEED ANY EXPERIENCE TO START?

No experience necessary! OutFox MMA welcomes complete beginners. Our instructors break down every technique step by step, and our community is known for being welcoming and patient with new students. Everyone starts as a white belt, and that's exactly where you should start too.

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?

Most students at OutFox MMA train 2 to 3 times per week and see consistent progress. Showing up regularly matters far more than training intensely once in a while. We offer multiple class times throughout the week so you can find a schedule that fits your life.

DO YOU OFFER CLASSES FOR KIDS?

Yes! We offer dedicated programs for children and teens at OutFox MMA. Our youth classes focus on discipline, respect, confidence-building, and the fundamentals of BJJ in a safe, fun environment.
