ELITE MARTIAL ARTS ACADEMY REVIEWS

We tried the trial class recently and we liked the welcoming environment. Betty and her team were accommodating and provided support with great customer service. We signed up immediately right after as new members! We are looking forward to a healthy and enjoyable experience in Elite Martial Arts Academy.

Myself and my three sons wanted to start training in Muay Thai. One of my sons was quite nervous. I never told him but so was I! Within ten minutes of training we knew we had made the right decision. This gym has a family based atmosphere with high end trainers. The boys and I feel welcomed, confident and well trained after every session. Pricing was more than reasonable and my boys cant get enough. Shout out to Francois and Betty to a job well done.

We enrolled our son and he is loving it! Thank you for the warm welcome. Even my husband signed up. It is a family oriented environment while doing the training class. Keep it up.

CHAMPION’S CREED REVIEWS

I did Champions Rise 5 month MMA training camp. It was a best jump start to, I hope, a lifelong love of martial arts. The team there is absolutely stellar. You have the best skilled individuals working their hardest pushing you furthest. You do feel, look and have the confidence of a real fighter by the end. A chance to be in the cage fighting your first mma fight with crowds cheering is a cherry on top. This is an experience of a lifetime. Don't miss out, I promise - just seeing your own progress alone is so worth it.

Awesome Coaches and amazing place to train and make friends. Coaches are very knowledgable in muay thai, bjj, wrestling and MMA. Teaching different kinds of techniques everyday. 100% recommended to everyone.

As a kid that went here and is returning this place helps me up when im down and makes me learn 1 disapline 2 how to defend myself and 3 THE CREED!! Seriously love this place so much thank you and tell PJ i say hi!.

ELEMENT MARTIAL ARTS INC. REVIEWS

My son is coming to IMA since when he was 5 years old. He was very shy and quiet boy but I can see the difference in him in last 3 years. He is still quiet but very confident and much stronger with his techniques and styles. They also hosts several events for the kids that are nice sitting alternatives. They also have their spring and summer camps which is very convenient for us. I will surely recommend them for kids mental and physical improvement.

This place is more than just a facility where my children learn martial arts, respect, disclipne and consistency. I as a single mother, have gained irreplaceable skills as a student. Training with dedicated and passionate coaches, Sensi's, and Professor's has forever impacted my family. This place has become our home. The team there takes great care and pride in developing the skill set of each child. A place of passion, respect and community.

Great facility, with great people arround. Everyone is super friendly and it’s an amazing environment to learn how to fight in. Absolutely recommend! Top MMA gym in Calgary !
