Recently, I tried a Muay Thai class with the encouragement of my husband that already practices Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at this location. I loved it and was hooked; no pun intended! Im more of a powerlifting/building aficionado and I also dabbled in BJJ myself so cardio isnt my thing but the Kickboxing/Muay Thai class changed my mind. Its a fantastic way to get a great dose of cardio and conditioning. Who wouldve thought that I would look forward to cardio? Its perfect for all skill levels and the professor is excellent at accommodating to any pre-existing conditions and/or injuries you might have. My husband has congestive heart failure (left ventricle) and is able to take the BJJ class at a rate that is comfortable yet challenging enough to learn new techniques. Professor Marcel and his wife offer a family-friendly environment. They also offer a great kids BJJ class. If Im not mistaken, you can try out any of the classes for free so it doesnt hurt to swing drop in and check it out.

Really great school for both beginners and advanced! Im a BJJ blue belt from another school and really appreciate Marcels (the instructor) style of instruction. He breaks down techniques very clearly, has us do live drilling with the new techniques he teaches us, and is very receptive to questions from the students. He is a former MMA fighter, so brings a lot of real world experience showing us the techniques, while also fostering a very friendly and wholesome environment. He does a really good job of attracting other friendly people to the school and discourages students from hurting each other. His Muay Thai kickboxing class is equally rewarding, and unlike other schools that make you wait before you can do live sparring, Marcel gets us doing light sparring on the first day. Since he has done such a good job of harboring friendly people around him, theres no danger of egos running wild and getting yourself hurt. All around really happy with my move to this school and looking forward to many years of training here.

My 8 year old is enrolled in the kid’s program and loves it. It’s a safe and encouraging environment that allows even the most timid kids to flourish. The kids practice as teammates and are always discouraged from being overly-aggressive towards each other. They are reminded constantly to treat each other with respect and gratitude.The instructor Marcel Ferreira is a world champion BJJ black belt and seasoned instructor. He and his wife make sure the kids have lots of fun while working on strength and flexibility. I recommend giving it a try.

Ive improved my jiu jitsu faster with Marcel Ferreira at American Top Team than at any other gym. He teaches the right way - with great fundamentals and techniques. It is a family environment where everyone respects each other. I highly recommend this place for training. This is the perfect place to learn martial arts at!

My son enrolled and is loving it. He takes the Muay Thai & Jiu Jitsu classes daily. He is learning a lot. There is plenty of one on one instruction. Master Ferreira and his wife are very welcoming and make everyone feel comfortable. He has so much knowledge that he is willing to share.

I enrolled my younger sister in the kids jiujitsu class to teach her a form of self-defense. After a few training sessions of jiujitsu, she was immediately ecstatic to come back and learn more from coach Marcel! As I watched her learn, jiujitsu techniques, it made me want to try it out as well, and after my first session, I immediately fell in love with jiujitsu. Coach Marcel is the real deal, and patient with kids and even to beginners like myself. I cant wait to continue learning from him alongside my younger sister about jiujitsu.
