Durango Martial Arts Academy
Durango Marital Arts Academy is Durango's only Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai Kickboxing, and Mixed Martial Arts Academy. Training in martial arts is the first step on a journey that can provide a lifetime of enjoyment, challenges, and personal growth. Discover a new hobby that can change your life!

Our goal is to use martial arts as a positive influence in people's lives and in the community. We believe that when people are healthy, more confident in their self-defense abilities, and more confident in their mental fortitude, society prospers as a whole. We focus on teaching the styles of martial arts that we believe provide the most benefits to our students in terms of practical self-defense, physical conditioning, and enjoyment.
Services
Durango Martial Arts offers classes for students of any skill level. Whether you're a beginner, expert, child, or adult, we offer a class that is right for you. We can loan you all the equipment needed for your first class. Buy gloves, kimonos, kickboxing shorts and everything else you will need at our fully stocked pro shop.
Our coaches are the heart and soul of DMAA. They have made martial arts their life's work, and want nothing more than to share their passion and experience with our students. We pride ourselves on our coaches for being friendly, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable in martial arts training methods.
Durango Martial Arts Academy has been privileged to work with a variety of age groups, and meet all kinds of people. They thoroughly enjoy our classes and provide excellent word of mouth referrals. Here's what just a few of our students and families had to say about their experience.

I'm obviously a little biased, but I can honestly say that without Durango Martial Arts and all the people here, so much of what has made my life meaningful would not have been possible.In my opinion, one of the best MMA schools for the price. More no-gi oriented in the past, but that seems to be changing a little as another black belt (in BJJ) has started teaching more regularly.

We had a great experience! I have two kids under 2 yrs old, and for the VERY first time since giving birth I didnt think about anything else except the kicks and jabs. This was a gift to be able to truly be in the moment. We didnt know what we were doing, but everyone was so welcoming and sweet. Cant wait to go back!

Because Cecilia and Erik were absolutely wonderful with not only our son but the other children too. Patient, understanding, and uplifting. We signed him up and are ready to go.

Durango Martial Arts is a solid place to be. Regardless of the times or situation the DMA coaches, staff, and students are always down to earth and willing to help, and to build one another up in any way possible. There is a high level of respect for running through that is hard to find anywhere else. 10/10 recommended

The way Professor Matt runs the kids’ class is exceptional. He’s serious about teaching but it’s a very light and fun environment, the kids all seem really into it and our kids in particular absolutely love going. A great part of our community indeed!
