My local MMA school is considered to have a great reputation but is actually crowded with students teaching students. There is little one on one time with the instructors.

This is one of the best Martial Arts schools in DFW! Nathaniel is very knowledgeable about the actual "Art" within Martial Arts, and teaches it in a way that is both motivating and understanding. This school covers everything from stand up striking, clinch work, to ground fighting. Definitely the place you want go if you are interesting in learning the traditional martial arts along with the evolution of fighting as a whole. Plus this school is blessed with an experienced and great instructor.
