TDC MMA is hands-down one of the best spots to train! The space is unreal—super cool, clean, and just has this welcoming energy that makes you excited to step in. The team here is like a family; everyone’s supportive, and you’ll vibe with your teammates instantly. The instructor is an awesome-insanely technical and has this knack for breaking down complex moves into simple, digestible steps, so you’re always learning, no matter your level. The whole atmosphere is chill yet focused, perfect for anyone looking to grow their skills and have a good time doing it. Highly recommend checking this place out—you won’t be disappointed!

This place is the truth! Extremely knowledgeable coaches, welcoming facility and a wide variety of skill levels. As a starter in my late 30s, I was looking for a smaller gym with high quality coaches and mid day groups. I found both and more. I’m a locked in fan for life. If you’re looking for an amazing place to start your BJJ journey, TDCMMA is the place!

I recently had an awesome experience at TDC-MMA! My brother and I took advantage of one of their free classes, and it was seriously worth it. The instructors were super knowledgeable and made learning a lot of fun. Even in just one session, we picked up some great techniques and got a feel for what MMA is all about. It's definitely worth checking out if you're thinking about getting into martial arts or just want a great workout. Highly recommend giving TDC-MMA a try!

This place has great energy and a warm welcoming vibe. If you’re new to training or a seasoned martial artist with years of experience, Dino and all the instructors will accommodate to your current skill level. Natural athleticism combined with a willingness to learn from a highly decorated, forever student of the art, will ensure not only your love for the art but your success in learning and achieving great things in all aspects of life along the way. 🙏🥋💪

I love this team and academy. When I started training I knew that this team was special and have been a part of this beautiful family for the last ten years. I thoroughly enjoy all the time I spend on these mats.

Frequently Asked Questions

IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?

Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at TDC MMA + Fitness. 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! TDC MMA + Fitness 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 TDC MMA + Fitness 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?

We primarily serve adult students. Please contact us directly to ask about availability for younger students — we're happy to point you in the right direction.
