Your child will develop true self confidence, learn self control, and the long lost art of self discipline. Your child will walk taller, look you in the eye
and shake your hand.
These are old school American values that seem to be of a bygone age. They will learn this all while “really” learning how to defend themselves. No “fake” board breaking or screaming a bunch of “yes sir’s”,
while practicing outdated, antiquated moves.
Our youth MMA training consists of Muay Thai Kickboxing, Boxing, Jiu Jitsu, and Wrestling all combined into a class that will teach them cutting edge self defense. Combined with our 24-point character development program you will be putting your children heads and shoulders above the crowd. We re-enforce old school codes and ethics which have been lost in todays politically corrupt atmosphere where everyone whose feelings get hurt gets a safe space to pet a puppy. Some of our character development points are…
No participation trophies
No safe spaces, stand up for yourself
Patriotism. The pledge is said after every class
Our God given right as put forth in the Constitution, bill of rights with all amendments included. Nothing too indepth as martial arts comes first
Looking people in the eye
Proper handshake
Walking with confidence
Ways to address adults with respect
How to answer instead of giving excuses
How to get and keep a mental and physical toughness
Plus many, many more

Client Testimonials
Don’t take our word for it – here’s what our students say:
Our family joined about four months ago after being 2nd degree black belts at another martial arts school. It was an extremely difficult decision to start over, but it couldn’t have been a better move for our family. The emphasis on exercise, physical fitness, proper nutrition and doing what is right are awesome and our families habits have changed considerably and we are getting in better shape, we feel great and are learning some very practical martial arts and self defense. As a family with two daughters, we feel more at ease that they will be able to defend themselves if necessary. Our daughters testing for their first belt was more difficult than any of their previous black belt tests, so when the test was over, they were very proud of themselves and we are very proud to be a part of this school.
Bill Kolmer
We cannot thank you enough for all of the great things you did for Jack. He is a completely different kid than he was three years ago. The things you taught him about recognizing the signals from his body and his brain have helped in every aspect of his life. Your training, combined with a number of other things we did for him, allow him to excel at school. Last June, he, for the second year in a row, achieved the highest math score on the state tests for Bloomington 4th graders. Without your help, he could not have sat still long enough to take the test. Thank you again.
The Elberts
American MMA gives kids a comprehensive program of mixed martial arts while at the same time reinforcing the values that we, as parents, work so hard to instill in our children. What we really appreciate about how Eric runs his program is the way he incorporates the values of respect, discipline, nutrition and even patriotism into the classes. Not only do the kids get trained in several aspects of martial arts (self-defense, jiu-jitsu, kenpo) but they gain self discipline and confidence while having fun… This is one place you can count on to reinforce important values to your kids while giving them excellent martial arts training!
Hackett Family
We really appreciate the great leadership and skills that you have taught Carlos in the last few years. He has become more confident, disciplined and is demonstrating leadership qualities that we believe were nurtured through training at your school.
