Have you always wanted to try a martial art, but weren't sure where to start? Do you want to learn valuable self-defense skills, all while getting in shape? Have you always wanted to be a part of a team? Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art and combat sport that teaches a smaller person how to defend themselves against a larger adversary by using leverage and proper technique.
Everyone talks about how great of an exercise jiu-jitsu is and they wish that they could have started earlier. To get your kids involved in jiu-jitsu at an early age is one of the greatest gifts you can give them. Developing balance and coordination at such an early age will not only keep them fit and healthy, but it will also help your child become an athletic and energetic individual throughout their lives.
MMA Cardio kickboxing is a group fitness class that combines martial arts techniques with fast-paced cardio. This high-energy workout challenges the beginner and elite athlete alike. Build stamina, improve coordination and flexibility, and burn calories as you build lean muscle with this fun and challenging workout.
There are so many things that happen involuntarily the first time you compete. For me, I stiffened right up and it took about four competitions to no longer go out there stiff as a board. It annoyed me as I started getting better because there was almost nothing I could do. Also I found out that I fatigue much faster in competition.
Private lessons are great for people who's schedule's don't work with our class times or for anyone looking to focus on a specific aspect of their training. You could focus on brazilain jiu jitsu, boxing, kick boxing, wrestling or your cardio. Its your time and you choose exactly what you want to work on.

Very welcoming for beginners. The culture is very positive, all about matching people at their intensity. One of the main instructors always, always, says before and after class, “thanks for taking care of each other.”
Definitely worth trying out their free introductory week. Sign up is a forum on their website. No obligations, just submit the web forum and show up.
Didn’t think I’d like it before I went, but after a week I only regret not getting involved ten years ago. I’ve been going to the evening weekday classes, Monday-Thursday, 7-9.

There is no place like Team Link Noho; you get world-class coaching, convenient class times, and a special family of amazing coaches and teammates that are dedicated to supporting and challenging you. This place makes me feel empowered and appreciated and the vibe is that everyone is important and an equal, no matter what color your belt is. Everyone is so welcoming, especially to new students. This is not just a BJJ school - it's a family.

I visited Team Link Noho while on business and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Helpful and responsive staff along with top notch facilities and great instruction. Very talented grapples train here so you will have plenty of good rolls. Would absolutely recommend to anyone in the area. A++

I tried the MMA kickboxing cardio class and loved it. The instructor was so informative and helpful! I feel like I learned so much in just one class. Tom was super nice as well. I can't wait to go back and take more classes!

There something wonderful that happens when peace of mind and tranquility merge and harmony takes over. The wonderful art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu mixed with an amazing group of people are just what any holistic healer could order. This school is more than just teaching an art, it's about providing a space where community thrives and authentic… exchange takes place. NO, folks don't sit around holding hands, singing "Kumba Ya..." instead we work hard, train hard, and laugh even harder. Grateful for this place and even more grateful for the opportunity to train there and be a part of that community

Our two sons (age 8 and 6) just started training at Team Link in Northampton a few weeks ago. This is their first introduction to Martial Arts. My husband and I as well as both boys are thrilled with Team Link. When I first called, one of the owners spent over 15 minutes with me on the phone answering all my questions and couldn't have been more helpful. Team Link has a convenient location & class schedule, and a clean facility. More importantly, the head trainer and all the assistant trainers have been wonderful with the kids. They are all extremely kind and patient, without coddling

If you havnt had the great opportunity to learn BJJ/MMA from a Team Link instructor, Link North Hampton is a great place to begin. John Manley is a great, energetic, and fun coach. All Link schools have ample opportunity to learn from some serious world class fighters such as Gabriel Gonzaga from the UFC. I highly recommend this sport and this school to anyone who wants to have fun, learn self control, gain confidence, and train to be a champion of this martial art!!!!
