Sensei Bobby and his team are outstanding. Our four year old son has been going to the dragon class for a year, and it’s made such a difference for his self confidence, ability to focus, and patience. We were initially unsure how a 3 year old could pay attention in a martial arts class, but we were astounded at how much kids can do. Sensei Bobbi has such a gift for teaching, and it’s so apparent how much joy he gets from it. He makes martial arts fun and engaging while also instilling discipline and respect for the sport. Kids walk out high fiving and hugging each other. It’s the highlight of my week as a parent watching the kids practice. What we love about the class is also in the structure. Sensei Bobby has the older kids demonstrate and serve as role models for the younger kids. He also brings a lot of his junior instructors to help, which means kids are constantly learning and teaching each other. Our son smiles every time he talks about martial arts all because of how amazing AMAC is. We can’t recommend it enough!
Our 9-year-old son thoroughly enjoys the group classes and often asks for private lessons to further sharpen his skills. It's impressive how much he has learned for the past year and a half and how eager he is to continue improving. The blend of physical training and life lessons makes this program truly special. We couldn't be happier with our son's progress and the positive environment provided by the coach and the entire team at AMAC. Coach Sensei Bobby does an incredible job, not only teaching mixed martial arts techniques but also imparting real-life skills that children can apply safely both in school and on the playground if a situation arises. If you are looking to support your child's physical and emotional development, look no further. Highly recommended for any parent looking to develop their child's discipline, confidence, and physical abilities!
Sensei Bobby and his staff delivered one of the most amazing birthday parties. All of the kids were kept busy, had fun, and learned a lot. In short, all the kids had a BLAST and parents are talking about what a great party it was. Highly recommend!

Sensei Bobby and his team of expert instructors have been excellent in delivering not just martial art techniques but also life lessons to my daughter who’s recently moved from the Dragons class, after receiving her black belt, to the Tigers class. AMAC is conveniently located and spacious. A great option for kids and adults.
We couldn't be more grateful for the incredible coaching experience our son Liam received under Coach Bobby and his team. Since joining in September, Liam has shown remarkable progress and growth. What's even more impressive is how our 2.5-year-old daughter eagerly participated in the classes, a testament to the engaging and inclusive environment created by Coach Bobby and his team. Their patience and dedication to each child's development are truly commendable. We highly recommend this coaching program to any parent looking for quality training and nurturing for their children. Thank you, Coach Bobby and team, for your outstanding efforts!
Great place to train Muay Thai / Kick Boxing! Friendly students ranking different levels and experience kru.
I have been coming since 2011 in my early teenage years as a kid. Been there for 9 years now. The coaching is fantastic, we all get along, socialize, and have well equipped gym for everyone. Adult class is incredible as well for men and women.
Our kids have been with AMAC for 4 years and they love it. Sensei is great at tailoring lessons for all ages. It has been great seeing the kids grow in their skills and self confidence over the years.
We have been going here two years and the kids martial arts program is outstanding! Sensi Bobby teaches with care and discipline. The kids are given opportunities to showcase their skills in front of the class, building confidence both in and out of the gym! Awesome spot, knowledgeable teacher, great vibes, friendly people. A+ program! So glad we found it!
Bobby and staff at AMAC are the best. Super friendly, kind, and driven to improve the lives of their students. I always had fun and learned something new every class I went to. Great way to get in shape and quickly learn self defense/Muay Thai.
Bobby, Victor, and Jason are all extremely knowledgeable in Muay Thai. Jason gives practical advice that comes from his experience as fighter in the ring. Bobby can spot the flaws in your movements from feet placement to shoulder work, and he will surely lead you down the right path towards Muay Thai mastery. Victor is the best as he demonstrates the realistic application of Muay Thai. The gym has a great vibe of comradeship as everyone there is genuinely interested in self-improvement and mastery of the Muay Thai craft.
Great Place to Learn MMA. PLUS.
I very much recommended the AMAC, great classes and instruction, students of all skill levels are welcome. During the current Covid times the necessary sanitation steps are taken each day to ensure a safe environment.
I've been doing martial arts for 25 years now....and this place is the real deal. Bobby is second generation student of Bruce Lee (via Richard Bustillo). No goons, no attitude, no "cardio kickboxing" at AMAC....just a bunch of good people training hard together and learning. Bobby focuses on the details, whether it's thai boxing, Filipino weapons, grappling, or Jeet Kun Do, the focus is on getting the basics right, this is the stuff that will keep you alive, in the ring, or on the street. As a bonus, this same expertise and effective teaching method applies to the kids classes too. Using praise and encouragement, he gets the kids to learn and have fun. After watching the kids class, I took my 10 year old son in for a trial. He loved it! I signed him up without hesitation. Now we train together at home! Highly recommend giving this place a try!
I've been studying martial arts at the store Joe sinks 1993 it has been the best experience of my life. Not only are able to get one on one attention through private classes, but the group sitting among the other students promotes fun, confidence, and a sense of achievement at the end of each class. Every day you can learn something new and apply what you learned the day before and weeks before.
Been going there for about a month now. I had never thrown a kick or punch in my life prior to this. It is a very relaxed atmosphere and the lead trainer Bobby knows his stuff you dont have to do anything you are not comfortable with and the gym itself is great
Great place for adults and kids. Real community for all.
I attended the Muay Thai class as well as the self defense (Jkd) class. This is a great school. I've been training for awhile and at multiple gyms. This place is the real deal. Great welcoming atmosphere and Bobby has a lot of knowledge to share. Muay Thai, eskrima, knives, hand trapping and more. They have it all. I was very impressed.
Bobby is a great teacher of MMA. Our kids have been going 3x/ week for the past few years and they love it.
I just had my kid taking the little dragon class. She's having fun and really working on her focus and discipline. Also we were at a kid's birthday party at AMAC and the kids had so much fun and learned a lot.
I did the kickboxing bootcamp and it was a great workout!the instruction was excellent !they got me in great shape!
Top notch martial arts and kickboxing center. Great instructors. Bobby Giordano is owner/instructor- great guy with tons of experience. Try it
I've been practicing martial arts for 20 years and this the best place I've trained. Legit authentic Muay Thai and Bobby G. is a great instructor.

This place has become my second home. A+
Awful place. Waste of time for the first "training" class
