Fantastic experience: You wouldn’t expect a gym like Boonedocks to be in a place like Boone. Some of the best staff and coaches I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Spencer and Tyler both really care about what they do and it shows in their classes. Beginner or experienced you will leave this gym better than how you came in.

Fantastic experience: This place has helped me so much mentally and physically. Great grappling community and awesome instructors. I would definitely recommend to anyone thinking about joining.

Fantastic experience: I stopped in twice while vacationing in the North Carolina high country area around Boone. Spencer and his team are super welcoming and provide top notch instruction.

If you’re looking to learn an eclectic mix self defense or martial arts; Boonedocks is the place to go!

Fantastic experience: Great place to train and learn new martial arts!

Fantastic experience: My grandson loves going here

Fantastic experience: This place is an amazing gym to train! If you are just stopping by or looking for a gym to train at for an extended period of time, Boone Docks MMA is a great choice! We would love to have you! These are the things I love most about the gym. *The coaching here is extraordinary. They really help you understand every little detail of a move without overcomplicating it. *Coaches and other members will not hesitate to help you through a technique. Just make sure to ask if you have any questions! * The class sizes are pretty big which is great because you get tons of experience with different types of bodies and styles. *The overall atmosphere is great! You really feel like family at this gym. It is super inviting and rolling with the class is so much fun. * Great Price! Since I don't have alot of money, I want to get the most bang for my buck. At $95 dollars this is a steal. For this quality, I have seen prices around $150. You also get black belt seminars for $40! $20 if you're a student!

Fantastic experience: This is a great place to learn self defense. There are a few females in every class. The teachers make me feel comfortable and are helpful without being overbearing I'm not that good yet but I'm definitely going back.

Fantastic experience: I have been training here for five months. The level of instruction for Muay Thai, and ju jitsu is top notch. Spencer (ju jitsu) and Tyler (Muay Thia) have taken me from a competent striker/grappler to a confident one. This gym is crawling with talent and is a great place to sharpen you claws for fun, health, or even competition. 18 adult classes per month for 95 dollars is a steal. I encourage all knowledge levels to come out. The roots of study are bitter but their fruit is so sweet.

Negative experience: Can't speak for the jiu jitsu classes buy Muy Thai classes are utterly terrible. Very disorganized, they throw beginners in with experienced and over the top boxers and expect them to hold their own. Even the instructors are overly zealous and have questionable qualifications. If you are a beginner, don't train here, save your brain cells.

Fantastic experience: Great environment for the kids and adults!! This place is awesome and I look forward to going everyday

Fantastic experience: I travel to the Boone area for work frequently and needed a place to train. This school is great and just what I was looking for. Everyone is super welcoming and great instruction.

Fantastic experience: Came up from Jacksonville Fl and found this place on vacation. Everyone was friendly and had a good skill set. I would definitely train here if I was from the area.

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough how much I’ve been impressed by the caliber of instruction at Boonedocks. I’ve trained with some of the most decorated and successful grapplers in the world and really, I mean it, Spencer’s BJJ knowledge and instruction is right up there with the best. On top of all that, Boonedocks has the advantage of being a smaller program where everyone feels like family and supports you in your own goals whether you want to compete, learn self defense, or even just get in shape. Why are you still reading this? Join already!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Boone Docks. It’s a perfect hole-in-the-wall gym with a strong sense of community and fun. Everyone is amable, respectful, and caring. It’s been so helpful for maintaining my sanity during the school year, all while keeping me active and healthy. I owe my strong connection with Boone in part to Boone Docks, and I am grateful for all that it has done for me. It’s very inexpensive for an MMA gym, but we receive fantastic coaching from the instructors, and we as a gym help it’s members succeed in learning martial arts for self-defense, or excelling in competition. Highly recommended to all.

Fantastic experience: Great place to train!
