The Academy EP is not only a place where you can learn Jiujitsu and Muay Thai from the best instructors in Minnesota, but a family! The community here is great, they always make me feel welcome and accomplished after every lesson. Also, I was not expecting to make so many friends in class! Thank you coaches Anthony, Justin, Dom and Hayden for all your hard work, energy and dedication.

I am so grateful I found this place! My 4-year-old son goes there and he loves it so much. The coaches are amazing. They are super fun and at the same time discipline them, and teach them how to respect each other and everyone else and be kind. I am seeing so much change in my son so far especially with discipline. They have these work sheets for reading, discipline and healthy eating that parents fill, and kids get strips for their belts whenever they complete a certain number. My son is motivated to do so much now. I highly recommend it for any parent who wants his kids to be in martial arts

I have been at the academy as a "beginner level" having no experience of Muay-thai before. I joined this gym back in december 2016 and been there ever since.
To be honest, it is more like a one to one class rather because the coaches here keep an eye out on every student irrespective of their level. I feel this is important because it is never too late to start doing something rather than assuming that it is not a right time because you are a "beginner"
I strongly recommend to check this place out, they have different payement plans, a beginners class to help you settle and you have the power

Awesome place to learn all aspects of both Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai from top-notch professors and staff. The Academy is a friendly, fun and clean environment. All ages and experience levels are welcome and everyone is treated like family. Whether you want to compete at a high level, get fit, or just feel more confident on the street, this is the place to go. Definitely the one of the best schools in the area.

We attend the Academy as a family, with children from age 4 to 8. The coaches have been exceptional, well-qualified and well-trained, friendly and give personal attention and advice to each individual. It has helped our children with self-discipline, motivation, focus as well as helping them gain physical coordination and strength. We highly recommend the Academy to individuals or families.

Getting my first belt with Coach Justin was so rewarding. I had never experienced any martial arts training prior to starting in November. Since then I've trained with some of the most honorable and skilled coaches, with fellow fighters who have had years of diverse experiences and styles, and have an incredible time while burning heaps of calories. It feels so good to be in shape, to feel secure and strong in my own body and to know that if needed I could dominate an aggressor and escape. I plan to continue to progress with my belts and to be an outstanding example of feminine strength for my

Great team atmosphere! Every one is in there to push themselves for a fight or personal reasons! Coaches are good guys, they really want you to develop and learn the technique. I've been training at other gyms and I have had the most growth in this one! Brazilian jujitsu (BJJ) is great with a black belt instructor who rolls with his team and gives tips to each persons individuala style. The Muay Thai is taught at a pace where everyone from day one people to fighters can get a good sweat going and still develop.

Best instructors.. Top of the line mixed martial arts school. Coach Hayden had improved my ground game leaps and bounds from when I first started. Just give it a try and you will be hooked whether your a beginner or more advanced!

I starting training Brazilian jiu-jitsu about a year ago and I've lost 45 lbs. Martial arts are a great way to get in shape and it's a ton of fun! The coaches here help you meet your personal gaols, and care about your progress. The academy always has a welcoming atmosphere, and amazing hands on training! So if your in the Eden Prairie area I highly recommend the academy!
