Upper Cumberland MMA

Fantastic experience: Upper Cumberland MMA is a great environment with some great trainers and people. UCMMA also provides top of the line punching bags and a helping hand to anybody that needs help. This has got to be the best place i have ever trained people are so nice and my fight game evolves every time I'm there so if you want to be a cage fighter or just able to defend yourself on the streets this is the place you need to be!!

Fantastic experience: UCMMA is a great place to train! Has a family environment. Trainers will help you with any questions you have.

Fantastic experience: Upper Cumberland MMA is the best place to train in the whole state. It is a family like environment. The instructors are always welcome to help anybody out. I have been going there for 2 and a half years and I have enjoyed everyday of it.

Fantastic experience: Upper Cumberland MMA is a very professional training facility with some of the best instructors in middle TN as well as the knowledge and equipment to bring you to your full potential. I have been training here for six months and I feel like family. I am very proud to be part of the UCMMA family.

Fantastic experience: Upper Cumberland MMA is the best place in the Upper Cumberland region for mixed martial arts training. They offer Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and great Cardio. The instructors are helpful and very knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: As a young female who's never done a martial art before, I can say that these people will make you feel extremely comfortable, safe, and right at home. Going to these classes are the highlight of my week and I've never had a bad time!

Fantastic experience: Love all classes and excellent trainers. Join us for a fun workout and meet some new friends. Punching and kicking is the best stress reliever.

Fantastic experience: I started the jiu jitsu program here about 5 months ago with no prior knowledge and without having done any serious physical training in years. Now, I'm constantly trying to improve myself in other aspects of life to make sure I can keep BJJ in my life for years to come. Michael Bartlett, the head instructor/owner has a great way of articulating his concepts through simple, straight-forward techniques; Jonathan Robbins, the fundamentals instructor, has been an excellent coach and motivator, seriously, I could write an entire review just on how awesome and passionate he is about teaching. The entire staff is encouraging and ready to address any questions. The facilities are clean and constantly being improved upon to provide an atmosphere that matches the staff and clientele. I highly recommend jiu jitsu at UCMMA!

Fantastic experience: I signed up for the 3 class trial for $20 and I will say it is totally worth it. Sarah is a great trainer. I've been going to the 11 o'clock classes and I sweat more in the time that I'm there than I ever have going to the gym. I sincerely believe that I will drop weight quickly with these classes. I suggest for anyone to give it a try!

Fantastic experience: Best gym around! You forget your even exercising while doing the cardio class, it's so much fun! Jiu jitsu and Kickboxing are fantastic, humbling, educational, and give you a whole new view of your body and what it can do. Matt, Jonathan, and the other instructors have worked countless hours with me, teaching useful techniques that can be used on much larger opponents (or attackers) and letting me try these techniques out on them. I would definitely recommend UCMMA to anyone looking to get in shape or learn to kick some butt!

Fantastic experience: I love UCMMA! I feel pushed to the limit each and every time I go in there. The class atmosphere makes working out fun! I've been going to this gym for 8 months and I can honestly say I have never been bored! Each trainer offers something different and new to keep the workout interesting. My endurance and strength have improved so much that I have signed up for a warrior dash next month and don't fear that I won't be able to complete it! I am so happy with my decision to join this gym and you will be too!

Fantastic experience: My experience at upper Cumberland MMA was life changing! By far the best program, for humility purposes, ill say within a 300 mile radius!! Matt Violette is a badass in all aspects but specializes in kickboxing. Michael Bartlett is a mastermind in 10th planet JJ. Very intelligent guy all around. Caleb has some of the fastest hands and boxing/kickboxing/jitz. The best part is that when you come here you immediately become family. No judgement at all. Accepting of everyone and they want everyone to prosper and have fun. Really if someone comes in acting the opposite of that they will probably get banged up a little bit during sparring. I love this gym and the guys that run it!!
