“What is MMA?”
MMA combines striking, wrestling, clinch work and ground fighting into one complete system. You don't have to choose between boxing, kickboxing, wrestling or grappling. We teach you how they work together.

We Build Capable People
Training is the vehicle. Becoming more capable is the goal.
CONFIDENCE THROUGH COMPETENCE
Real confidence isn't something we tell you to have. It comes from learning difficult things, practicing them and discovering what you're capable of.
TRAIN FOR SOMETHING
Strength, conditioning and martial arts should have a purpose. We train to move better, perform better and be more prepared for the demands of real life.
SKILL OVER EGO
Good training doesn't require unnecessary damage. We prioritize timing, control, technique and intelligent resistance so people can improve without treating every practice like a fight.
DO HARD THINGS
Growth requires discomfort. We believe in challenging people appropriately, allowing them to struggle, learn, adapt and become better because of it.
WALK WITH CONFIDENCE IN AN UNCERTAIN WORLD.
DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT.
Real people. Real experiences. Our community.

Kenneth:
Top-notch gym with an outstanding coaching staff! This is an excellent place for people of all skill levels, all ages, and both men and women. The coaches genuinely care about every person in class and create a positive, supportive environment.
I especially enjoy watching Coach Brandon and the rest of the coaching staff work with my son. They’ve helped him build confidence in his abilities, both physically and mentally, and it’s been amazing to see his growth. The best part is that he absolutely loves going and always looks forward to every class.
I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a place that develops not only skills but also confidence, discipline, and character.
Adelle:
This place is incredible! It's like one big giant family. There is no judgment, just people pushing each other and trying to grow. Our boys have been going the last few months, and we have watched their confidence soar, they have learned so much, and have made such incredible friends. They genuinely enjoy going and often ask to stay for both classes. There's even equipment for you to work out on when you're waiting for the kids to finish. The coaches are incredible, take safety seriously, and push everyone to be the best version of themselves. I have no doubt that if needed, my kids can defend and protect themselves. I could legit go on forever about this place! If you're on the fence for yourself or your kids, just try it out!! Thanks Junkyard for taking us in!
Jeremy:
I have been practice martial arts on and off for over 10 years now. I trained at quite a few different places and have trained in multiple arts, and this place is among the best! All the coaches are knowledgeable, and the facility is kept very clean. Since training there I've lost about 35lbs, and my martial arts skills have gotten a lot better. It seems cliche but junkyard fitness has become a second home. I highly recommend anyone and everyone come in and check it out at the very least.
