I've been training with Nashville MMA for a year now. With martial arts already being a life for me, it was very important that I found the right environment that I could call home when I moved to Nashville for the long term. I have great respect for all the coaches and the effort and dedication that they put into their students.
Coach Tra'vell is usually my Muay Thai Coach. When attending Coach T's class expect to be met by a man of great heart and passion for Muay Thai. I respect that he has knowledge of what traditional Muay Thai is. As it was critical that I found that aspect of the art in

I've been coming to Nashville MMA for a few months by now, taking the Muay Thai classes during the week. The classes are always informative and fun! Coach Travell does a great job teaching and is always available for any questions after class. I would fully recommend going here with Coach T as long as you are willing to put in the effort and listen to their advice.

Great gym for all skill levels. Coach Travell’s Muay Thai classes are challenging, informative, and he is a thoughtful instructor that works with all skill levels. There are multiple martial arts taught, and everything from full contact to fundamentals classes which just teach technique. I highly recommend this place.

I've been taking the evening Muay Thai Fundamentals classes since October, and I absolutely love them. Everything from the training atmosphere, great staff, instructors and fellow students are second to none. Coach "T's" dedication, skill level, and passion for the art is undeniably inspirational.

I had my first experience in an MMA gym this week. With it being my first time, naturally I was intimidated before walking through the door. However, after being greeted by the staff / coaches they made it feel like I had been training there for years. Very personable and welcoming to everyone. Coach T was a great, I have the utmost respect for him as a fighter and teacher. He made the class challenging yet understood that most of us are beginners and adapted to our skill level. I will definitely be going back.

I have been attending Nashville MMA for a few months now and really enjoy everything about it. I have gone to Muay Thai with Coach Tra'vell and BJJ with most of the instructors and every experience has been awesome. As basically a first timer with no martial arts/wrestling experience at all it's been a great place to learn.

After my free class, I was hooked. First class environment and stuff! The guys at the front desk are awesome, and give you all the information you need to make you feel comfortable. Coach Travell taught my first class and did a great job of explaining the proper technique in order to allow me to be successful. I have only been going for a couple weeks, but know that this gym can really help me accomplish any goals I may have. Even if you are not into martial arts I recommend at least giving the gym a try simply for how challenging and beneficial the workouts are.

I’ve been going to Nashville MMA for about 2 months now, having no prior experience. The environment is welcoming, it feels like everyone wants you to succeed no matter what level you’re at. I take Muay Thai with Coach Travell - he gives helpful advice, and is both challenging & encouraging. Going here has put me in a better place, both mentally & physically. Definitely recommend!

One of the best experiences I’ve had, anywhere, in a long time. I did my trial class today and just by how nice the facility is and the front desk workers I could already tell I was gonna sign up before the class even started. I did Muay Thai with coach Trevell. He was awesome and really instructive because he could tell I’m new to MMA. He kept it going hard, no nonsense in this gym. He was nice but still had the attitude of a great coach. Don’t listen to the bad reviews that say they’re mean, if you can’t handle being coached then you shouldn’t take classes. I did not see anyone being

Hands down the best place to learn Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, wrestling and MMA in Nashville. Anyone of any level of experience can walk in the doors and find a welcoming and challenging experience. Every coach and staff member is friendly and professional and wants to see you succeed in your martial arts goals. If you're looking for a place to drop-in or become a full-time member of a martial arts training facility, this is the place.

Came in for a few days of training while visiting Nashville. Everyone was professional and welcoming. I took a Muay Thai Class with a coach who's name I forgot, and Wrestling with Coach David. Both classes were taught well with a lot of drilling. Wrestling was a small class and Coach David basically gave me a private lesson. He gave me several tips on my tie up game and focused on all the small details to make sure I walked out of practice a better wrestler. Give that man a raise!

I had been a member of Nashville NMMA for 10 years. The gym has become a pathetic shell of its former self. When I first joined NMMA, the environment was everything a fighter could dream of. Sparring classes were intense and informative. The gym had a culture that supported and focused on fighters. The instructors were more than knowledgeable. The previous owner knew what it took to run a true fight gym. Fast forward ten years; NMMA is now a safe haven for crybabies and cowards. The gym's focus is no longer on training and supporting fighters; the focus is now how to make as much money as

My son and I stared about 2 months ago and we both love it. I have to say I was a bit nervous to begin but everyone is very welcoming and knowledgeable with years of experience. The instructors as well as the other students are always willing to help you learn and get better.
The kids class has a great mix of fun and discipline which makes learning enjoyable.
There are classes multiple days and times of the week to fit into anyone's schedule. You can choose how much your want to attend and which disciplines( Thai kickboxing, jujitsu or both). There are also trial classes available.

Was in Nashville on vacation and dropped in for a couple of workouts. Initially had a little trouble finding it, but when we finally arrived we found a big gym with clean mats. Didn't have a chance to take a class, but chatted briefly with Lance and saw some of their students training and it seemed to have a legit muay thai/mma program. Can't speak to their BJJ, since we left as the class was about to start. Will definitely stop by next time in Nashville, as it provided nice balance to the hot chicken and honky tonk highway antics.
