Martial Arts Schools in Dayton

“A true self defense martial art of mind, body, spirit, and character. Not a McDojo. Awesome weapons.“

“Great place to train! The atmosphere is friendly and encouraging, and I always have a great time. The instruction is top notch with well structured easy to follow lessons and one on one guidance. Coach Chris is a great example of what a coach should be: attentive, passionate, friendly, and he cares a lot about his team. If you’re looking for a great team environment to grow and learn martial arts I can’t recommend Dayton MMA enough.“

“I LOVE TTF. The environment and interior of the building is clean and welcoming. The TTF Team is very cool and understanding.I feel like ever since I got into TTF, my well-being has improved a LOT. If you're thinking of getting into Taekwondo, or even just feeling healthier physically, TTF is the place for you!“

“I had an opportunity to train No-Gi jiu jitsu at SG Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in March 2024. It was a great experience with friendly people. The owner, Sean, was very accommodating and helpful; I had emailed the club info address a week in advance to set things up. Sean responded within a few hours and I was able to make a plan to visit the early Wednesday morning workout. Signing in was quick and easy. Sean was very friendly along with all the students. They were all very easy to work with during the training. The skills training was challenging but taught in a technical way that was easy to grasp. I’d highly recommend SG BJJ to anyone who’s into BJJ or looking to get into it!“

“I have been training here for 8 months now and have learned so much. There is so much to learn here and a great community of people.“

“I am a 43 year old BJJ brown belt and have trained over 25 years in boxing, muay thai, sambo, MMA and BJJ, and even ran a gym in Rhode Island. Everytime I am TDY I drop in at gyms. I am selective in order to avoid injury or mcdojos. This gym is simply fantastic! Welcoming dudes, super great vibes, and good rolls. And the head owner is so gracious, with great character. I loved watching all of the various arts. A vibrant and thriving gym for sure. If you’re in the area or thinking about training, definitely this is the place to be.“
