Hicks MMA: Opinions

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Hicks MMA for eight months and I couldn't be happier. When I started with Coach Hicks, I was four months post partum and had 15lbs that I could not shake. With careful monitoring from Coach Hicks, I have lost the weight, gotten stronger, and I'm in better shape than before I had my baby, all while improving on my BJJ journey and becoming part of an MMA family. I have gone to different gyms around the Carrollton area to train (in boxing and BJJ) and not one measures up to Hicks MMA for the level of skill and professionalism you will experience.

Jazmin A. 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: We love Hicks, our son just turned 5 and has been taking classes for a yr. now. Coach Gavin, has an incredible amount of patience and has given our son great leadership advice that has transpired in his everyday life. Being around like minded parents that want nothing more than to see their children succeed is a definite plus. Coach Hicks, has provided a great space for any child to thrive and build not only technical skills but a strong foundation. Couldn’t recommend Hicks MMA more, truly!

Fantastic experience: Hicks MMA is not the first gym I have trained at, but for me it has been the best fit. They offer a large variety of classes as well as many different time frames to fit your schedule. Coach Hicks is a beast and he is visibly passionate about what he does. If you’re trying to learn how to defend yourself, or how to fight, check out Hicks MMA.

Adam Pierson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym and instructors. I knew nothing about boxing going in, but the coaches are supportive and take their time to explain the smallest details. Coach Hicks and Coach Gavin are great teachers and can break down the technique so it’s easy for anyone to understand.

Kyle McKamie 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: We've been coming here for about 7 months. In that time, my son has turned into a very respectful young man. Professor Hicks is incredibly talented and very patient with his students. Coach Gavin is great with my boy and his class. I am so proud of how hard my son has been working, and I am so thankful he asked us to sign him up for Jujitsu. 10/10 cannot recommend this place enough.

Nate Gee 1 year ago

Vanessa Ramirez 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: My nephew attends HicksMMA and I’ve seen him grow and gain confidence in the time he’s been attending. You can tell the coaches know their stuff and ensure the kids do as well, especially during tournaments. Would recommend to any parent!

Albrecht Bolivar 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: My son has been training BJJ with Coach Hicks for about a year and a half now. The dedication and commitment that all the coaches show is unmatched. Great environment, clean, and extremely welcoming. So glad to be apart of the Hicks family.

Narai M 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Coaches are amazing and truly care about the kids and their development. The gym is a family and you always feel welcome by everyone. You will not be disappointed by joining the HicksMMA family.

Morgan Reyes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: It's been over a year that our son started his jiu-jitsu journey with Coach Hicks and we are so happy he did! Not only was he welcomed with open arms, but we were as well. The gym provides a family environment that promotes encouragement and growth from all levels. Coach Hicks and other staff members are extremely knowledgeable and truly care about each person's development and success. The gym is always very clean and well maintained also!

Austin Willis 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Hicks is a PHENOMENAL coach and mentor. My son goes here and he has done a complete 180. We have made some amazing like minded friends. We looked at multiple other gyms and they just didn’t have the standard of coaching, mentorship, and training we wanted to instill in our son. His standards are way above the bar of other gyms and the kids he trains are MILES ahead of other kids in other gym. I’ll put it to y’all simple, my son will train with Hicks for life. Period.

Luis Anaya 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: You will not be disappointed by joining Hicks. Coaches are knowledgeable and care about everyone and their development. The kids love going and you can see the improvement with each class

stormie willis 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Been going to hicks MMA for almost a year and my child loves it. He ask me just about everyday if he trains tonight. We train 3 days a week. And enjoys every minute of it. Gavin and hicks corrects the kids when they do a move wrong. They make sure they are doing the moves the right way. And if a kid doesn’t understand they will work one on one for a few minutes to make sure they get it will have them train with their partner and watch and coach them through it. Would highly recommend this place.

Nathan Hatzfeld 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Been coming here a little over 4 weeks now and I'm really enjoying it. The coaches are great and my class mates couldn't be friendlier.

Bontavy Vorng 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This is my first Google review, so I have the pleasure of giving it to Hicks MMA. I’ve been here for almost 4 months now, so I’m still a beginner, but Jiu Jitsu has literally changed my life. My confidence has skyrocketed, and yet at the same time I’m constantly humbled every class by my training partners. Jiu Jitsu enables me to become a better version of myself, not only on the mats but off the mats as well. The lessons that I learn from all the coaches and Professor Hicks at this gym, I can apply to other parts of my life. I think Jiu Jitsu is very equivalent to life. I really like the camaraderie that happens with Jiu Jitsu, I like that I’m learning skills to defend myself, and I like that I’m in the best shape of my life, and I’ve only just begun my Jiu Jitsu journey. I highly recommend Hicks MMA to anyone and I encourage Jiu Jitsu for everyone. It’s a really fun way to stay active and get in shape! Put in the hard work, stick with it and I believe it’ll have a positive impact on anyone’s life.

Fantastic experience: Great teaching to everyone’s understanding, could longer classes though, and more free rolling.

Ali Ace 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Hicks MMA offers so many Mama classes and the instructors are great! You can just tell that they care so much about what they are teaching you.

Amanda Carroll 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been training here a little over 2 years. I had no previous martial arts training at all. Coach Hicks, with the help of other advanced coaches and students, really helped me develop not only a passion for the sport, but a level of physical fitness and mental strength I would not have otherwise been able to attain. I was slightly apprehensive at first joining a gym with not many other female members. Everyone in the gym is courteous and keeps the training centered around jiu-jitsu or boxing. I've never felt uncomfortable in any way. I would recommend Hicks MMA to anyone who wants a fun, alternative way to get in shape while also learning helpful life skills.

Stephen Shirley 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Value Been here for on and off 6 years . The coaching is specific and precise . The other students are great training partners . Perfect place for the casual goer or the hard core competitor as the coach tiers the classes .

Rick Hardwick 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've had the privilege of taking private lessons for many years with numerous high level instructors in Boxing, Muay Thai, NOGI grappling and BJJ over the last 13 years. Coach Hicks is by far the most caring and knowledgeable teacher that I've ever encountered. His experience and knowledge of what works and what doesn't comes from years of being a professional fighter. He has literally dedicated his life to teaching his students how to protect themselves in a real world altercation, perform effectively in competition and strengthening ones mindset in order to never give up. I'm honored to call him my coach and friend.

Rebekah Klein 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: My son has been attending for over a month and I have seen such an improvement in his attitude and confidence! He looks forward to every class and the coaches pay attention to where his strengths and weaknesses are and are constantly helping him improve. We love Hicks MMA!!!

Tom McCall 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience all around! My kids are engaged and instruction is adjusted based on the level of the class. Great attention is paid to the advancement of the children's skillset and constantly encouraged to work hard and do their best. Also, Coach Hicks is passionate about helping all achieve their goals, whether it's in the kids or adult classes. Couldn't have asked for a better experience overall with an extremely skilled instructor! So, years later I've had to privilege, and I truly mean privilege, to work with Coach Hicks and he has taken me under his wing to reach the goals we set. Remarkable instructor, leader, and all around person! Words can't express how upstanding of a person Coach Hicks is! He only got 5 stars because I can't give 10 stars.

Alicia De La Cruz 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: From the start not only was our daughter welcomed immediately but our entire family was welcomed by all members of the gym, especially by staff. We became apart of the Hick’s jiu-jitsu family very quickly and never looked back! The gym provides a family environment that promotes a level of growth. Coach is extremely knowledgeable and knows his stuff! He has instilled in everyone to make each other better every day. Respect is big and I LOVE THAT! Coach will push you and you are surrounded by encouragement from all levels no matter what level you are at. Gym is always very clean and mats are well sanitized. You will not regret looking into the gym and giving it a try with the FREE trial class they offer..

Max E 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love Hick MMA! Having been to other gyms and marital schools, I can definitely say with all certainty that Coach Hick is one of the best trainers. His knowledge is world-class, the school is professional, friendly and the motivation transcends just physical fitness but helps in all areas of life! Come join this incredible family. You wouldn't be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Value Best coach I’ve ever had. After trying different MMA/Boxing/BJJ coaches he breaks down the basics, step by step. And helps his students understand the correct techniques that can be utilized in every day situations.

Ngee Garzilla 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you want to learn real jiu jitsu, how to actually box, get in shape and defend yourself while being led through an actual lesson plan to improve your skills then you need to sign up. Coach Hicks is the an expert in the industry.

Jose Aguilar 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My experience as an athlete at Hicks MMA has been a great one. I've trained with Coach Marcus Hicks for over a decade now and can say that his Boxing and Jiu Jitsu programs are among the best in the nation. Marcus has years of Coaching experience along with an outstanding professional fight record so his methods are effective not only for Self Defense, but also anyone looking to compete at the highest level of Boxing, BJJ or even MMA. As an athlete, Marcus has taught me how to stay focused and perform well under pressure. As for off the BJJ Mat/ Boxing ring, the Hicks MMA Program has turned me into an overall better student, teamate, friend, competitor and leader. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Started with zero experience and with patience and help from Head instructor Marcus now have the option to go pro. Thanks Coach!!

Fantastic experience: Coach Hicks really knows his stuff. The facility is very clean and sanitized. The crew and the guys are a great group. Hey, im thought im in shape but when it comes to this type of fitness it is on another level. I can definitely.say, you will be made stronger. I will definitely choose this workout than any other, plus you are in good hands of experience teachers with Coach Hicks!

Fantastic experience: Family-friendly environment. Top Notch MMA training for beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels ( from a coach that has professionally competed). Friendly training partners and staff. Excellent place to get it shape or train to compete.

Andrew Mogollon 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've never been to a better school for Mixed Martial Arts. Coach Hicks has taken my boxing and jiu-jitsu to new heights and my skills are improving day in and day out with the help and support that Coach brings me. Not only is the coaching great but it's the best team atmostphere I've felt since I was back in high school wrestling.

david eaton 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Mr Marcus "Wrecking Ball" Hicks leads an energetic & varied boxing class that you're sure to feel the next day. His students are welcoming and committed. He gives each of his students personal attention to ensure they develop constantly. I had a great time & look forward to the next lesson a great deal.

Cindy Nunez 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome experience! Coach Hicks is a great instructor - I would recommend this place for anyone with any level of experience. It is at a nice location and the environment is enjoyable to be in.

Stuart Bussert 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I started my BJJ journey at Hicks MMA last year. We originally enrolled our 10 year old son when we relocated to Carrollton. We were so impressed with the coaching, leadership, and mentoring our son was receiving that both my self and oldest daughter decided to begin our BJJ journey as well. Coach Hicks is the absolute best coach we have ever had the pleasure off being around. Coach Hicks treats all of us as family and the "Team" dynamic is second to none. Needless to say if you are looking for a great place to begin or continue your martial arts journey look no further. Hicks MMA is the place to be!!!

Dave Woodard 6 years ago

Penn Elmore 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: My kids have gone here for almost 3 years as of writing this. My wife has also done women's self defense, boxing and bjj. I can't imagine another gym for my family. Coach Hicks is very warm and caring for your children. He teaches them respect and life skills along with the jiu jitsu / boxing of course. He wants to make you the best you can be regardless of age!

DD R 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I want to leave a review about Hicks MMA. It is not your chain karate school where you will get your stars and belts every 2 months! Your kid have to work hard to get even a stripe! Marcus is an awesome coach who reaaaaly cares about progress. And your child will learn a lot and you will see how confidence is growing and knowledges are coming after every class. It is worth every penny and every second you will spend out there! Awesome job Hicks MMA!

Jessica Bishop 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: My husband and I joined the gym a little under a year ago and both agree that that was one of the best decisions we have made regarding our health and fitness. I have to admit it is a bit intimidating at first but as soon as you set foot on that mat you are family. It's phenomenal to look back and see the growth we have made in our technique and endurance with the help of Coach Hicks and cannot wait to see where this next year brings us.

Jomell Mercado 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: In completely honesty if you were going to try out a gym try Hicks MMA. I go out of my way to train with Coach Hicks. Me easily being amazed by the work ethic I was surrounded by drew me in to come back after months of sheer laziness.

Jordan Benitez 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: The experience I have had so far at Hicks MMA has not only improved my skill and athleticism, but have made improvements in other aspects of my work and home life. The kids class is welcoming and engaging, helping to build confidence, respect, and discipline. A fun environment with great work.

Nicholas Rodriguez 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Hicks MMA is an OUTSTANDING gym for fitness, martial arts, and personal development. Coach Hicks truly cares about his students and approaches training with the mindset of developing you to be your best on and off the mat. I've lost over 25 lbs. since starting to train with Coach Hicks and my health is the best it's been in years. The lessons I've learned with Coach in Boxing and Jujitsu have enriched my life both personally and professionally. I highly recommend Hicks MMA to anyone at any fitness or experience level to come by and check out the training with Coach Hicks.

shane vanover 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Coach Hicks does more than just have you hit a bag. He properly trains you for the experience you need both inside and outside the ring. You get treated like family, not just another fighter. From fighting advice to life advice, he's got something for everyone. Best experience I've had from an MMA coach.

Aricka Peavy 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Coach Hicks has great enthusiasm and patience with the kids classes. I feel since my son starting his program I have notice he is more confident. Plus I like the structure the classes provide.

yolanda rodriguez 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have an experienced background when it comes to hitting the gym but i have never been so compelled to ensure a gym is recognized for its culture but when it comes to hicks it would be wrong to not share my experience with you guys. Comfort is hidden in the sweat and hard work from everybody there. I highly recommend this gymnasium.

Rocky Kothari 6 years ago
