Excellent gym. Glad I joined. Still very early in my journey here but I know for a fact I’ll be sticking around. At this stage, 1-2 classes a week is what I do but that will deff pickup. Coach Donavan, Coach Joe and others have been very welcoming. Fun place to blow off some steam, get a good sweat, and perfect your craft in martial arts. Highly recommended. ATT!!!
My daughter went here the entire summer before Kindergarten to help with the adjustment from daycare to school. We could not believe the amount of respect she learned and her "I can" attitude. The coaches and staff are far superior to what I wished for. Within a week we saw a dramatic shift in her behavior! Thank you ATT-Longwood. -Happy Parents
Enjoyed a great birthday party with my grandsons! Amazing crew, kids loved the bounce house, perfect “training” for the kids. Highly recommended for birthday parties and more! Thx!!
From day one this place has been great for our teenage son! The atmosphere and just being around good people and showing him something positive has been great for him and us as a family! So happy we chose ATT for our son!
I never thought that training at ATT Longwood would have such a big impact on life both mentally and physically. ATT Longwood become my place of peace and to my coaches/teammates I am forever grateful!
I can't say enough positive things about my first training session here at ATT Longwood. I was intimidated and nervous at first as I'm new to BJJ and sparring but immediately felt better with the quality of the training staff and friendliness of the group. I was pushed out of my comfort zone by Joey and he gave excellent pointers in my technique that made a difference. A great workout with new friends and feeling more confident are what's in store here. Highly highly recommend!!
This is a wonderful place to learn martial arts with an excellent facility and instructors! I especially enjoy that this is a family friendly and diverse community environment. My 5 yr old nephew is learning so much here and loves his teachers.
This place is awesome! I’ve been training here since I was a child. My mom brought me here because I was getting in trouble in school. Now, I’m 18, I’ve competed in Jiujitsu and Muay Thai and the training has helped me stay on track and focused on the future. The training is phenomenal, the coaches are high level, and they are some of my best friends.
I love this place! After a lifetime of beach volleyball, surfing, windsurfing, paddling, et cetera, I had been struggling to make time and feign enthusiasm to get outside or into a tradition gym. Unfortunately but realistically, my fitness had really slipped the past few years, with lots of family and work obligations.
Now, after 7 years here, I write this as a humble, enthused 54 year old. I’m thrilled to share that I have officially lost 15 pounds; moreover, I recently had the epiphany of contemplating where I would be today without ATT: +5 instead of -15 would put me at a +20 pound differential! And more importantly, my cardio, strength, flexibility, and attitude have vastly improved.
As a testimony, I attend Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Boxing, Muay Thai (and a few MMA) classes 2 to 5 times per week, with occasional private lessons. The staff at ATT have moved the needle for me from a wee, unfit beginner to hopeful, energetic fanatic. If you have not had the pleasure of learning these sports, they are like a chess game with a lot of sweat and tears (surprisingly, not a lot of blood – ha!). Every day that I miss, I wonder what didn’t I learn. Every day that I attend, I leave the mat exhausted, invigorated, challenged, and intellectually stimulated. The coaches here are top-notch: to Jose, Joe, Cole, Donovan, J-Mac, Nick, and Josh, I say thank you for your patience, humor, persistence, and enthusiasm! I appreciate that you are clearly invested in my success.
What may surprise you is the quality of rolling and sparring partners at American Top TEAM: they (and we) are amazingly friendly, where the daily goals are to push our skill sets, fitness, and collegiality forward, no matter where we are - beginner or pro. Have you ever rolled with a Pro or Amateur MMA fighter or boxer? Come on in, and be humbled in a respectful environment. For sure, this is a serious gym with serious athletes, and the rest of us are perfectly welcomed too, so long as your ego is checked at the mat.
However, this isn't all about us. I am stoked to see so many children in the kids’ classes, boys and girls. They are learning about self-defense skills, respect for each other and their elders, grit and toughness, disappointment and recovery from mistakes, all in a super-friendly environment.
Last, I appreciate the fair prices for great equipment.
From the first day I stepped in I knew I was in a place that genuinely cared about its students and the community they’ve built around the sport is so welcoming. if you’re thinking about learning a combat sport this is definitely the place to go to.
The ATT Longwood location has helped my kids gain so much discipline and self confidence. They rave about their favorite teacher Joey! You won’t regret spending the extra money - this place is definitely worth it!!
I brought my 9 yr old daughter and my 12 yr old boy to American top team 6 months ago. I can truly say that I am certain that I brought them to the right place. A wonderful display of diversity. Instructors are extremely attentive with all of the children, usually three and four instructors give the same attention to all kids. I have seen the level of confidence in my children rise. If you’re shopping for a mix martial arts experience for your child or adult this is an environment I definitely recommend.
Had a great visit with the crew at ATT Longwood! I was in town for work and dropped into a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class. Everyone, including both the staff and students, was very welcoming. Really good instruction and good, tough rolls at the end of training. I will definitely try to stop in again when I’m in the area!
I started training here when I was 12, the environment and the people are always so friendly and welcoming. I also have attended the summer camp which was an amazing experience. It offers a great opportunity for children to grow their martial art skills and learn discipline. I have since returned to the gym and i can tell it has only gotten better.
This place is amazing. The people treat you like family. My son loves his experience at the Summer camp. So many field trips and pool days. He has learned a lot since starting BJJ, with that being said it’s due to the great instructors that take the time out to help kids one on one. My child has gained confidence and patients during these training sessions.
Amazing atmosphere. Joe is an awesome instructor, detailed and patient. Would highly recommend ATT if you are interested in Muay Thai or any other martial art.
Walked in nervous on my first day over 7 years ago, walked out that same day feeling like I had gained a whole new family. This place has changed my life, if you’re looking to better yourself, look no further.
My experience with this gym has been absolutely outstanding. All the instructors for the programs are extremely experienced and the youth program has excellent instructors as well. The environment is welcoming and friendly, and the staff is courteous.
From my experience, this is the first place I began training and don't see myself leaving. They made it easy and comfortable for my first day and the first few weeks after. After that, everyone fits right in.
Almost a year and a half down the road and still can't wait for classes each week to train and hang out with everyone. It is such a good time and quite the learning experience. Thanks ATT Longwood!
I went to this camp about 6 summers for most of my childhood and the people here are amazing and really make sure you are doing your best. They will make you smile and have a lot of fun and are probably some of the nicest staff/people to be around. And I wish I could go back in time to experience it all again.
I have been part of this team / family for just over 12 years and I confidentially say at the ripe age of 40 years young this was one of the best decisions I have made in life… kids and adult programs are fantastic the staff are extremely friendly and have every members goal in mind .. if you wanna feel fit and healthy and have the ability to protect yourself ATTLW is your place P.S kids camps are excellent overseen by some of my favorite people … NO BETTER PLACE TO FEEL BEETER
This gym has something for everyone- kids classes, ladies classes, boxing, Muay Thai, MMA, BJJ, you name it. The coaches are all friendly and knowledgeable and genuinely care about you. If you want to become a better fighter or learn self defense and become part of an amazing family then this is the place for you!
Love this place if you are looking to become the best fighter you can be this team will help you achieve this goal more then 100% with the team and staff that come to this gym for sure you'll either have you goals reach or start the road to a exciting path of Martial arts every class is tailored to the student and once you there it's like a second home and the team become a second family. Glad I made the decision to come to this gym when I did, just wish I joined so much more soon
American Top Team Longwood is a great gym! Its perfect for those who want to get into Mixed Martial Arts and learn self defense. The gym offers multiple skill level based training regimens fit for everyone. The environment is awesome, and everyone feels like one big family.
Best gym in the area! The coaches and staff are extremely professional along with all the classes being excellent and accommodating for any level of martial arts a person is at. Whether you’re looking to get in great shape, learn how to defend yourself, or looking to compete, this is definitely the place for you!
Family atmosphere. Great kids program. Walking into an mma gym can be intimidating for some but from the first day I walked in everyone made me feel welcome.
Best place ever! My son is ten years and doesn’t want to miss a day. His attitude has change for the better. He love his instructor, they are so great keeping the group engaged.
They are so great in making the group a team. These kids learned to be educated, and with great discipline. The staffs is awesome. really care about each children taking home something new everyday. Clean, up front, honest. A very please Mom.
Great people, great environment, great work! A place for all people; from those only looking for a great place to get fit and lose weight to those people aspiring to become a fighter.
Tldr highly recommended
We signed our son up for the aftercare program a few months ago and couldn’t be happier. Joe and his team have been fantastic, from the curriculum to the thorough communication. I couldn’t recommend them more, when it comes to shaping a child with respect, discipline and confidence through Martial Arts.
Top grade coaching, great for all levels of experience and fitness, fun, welcoming, fantastic scheduling so it's perfect no matter your work/life schedule, superb kids program... this is not just a gym, it's a community I'm proud and excited to be apart of!
It feels like family in there, friendly environment everyone has a goal in common to better yourself everyday, it’s great for fitness and learning real techniques, and it’s for everyone.
This gym has amazing coaches and staff. I love the combination of traditional elements (especially Muay Thai) with a laid back atmosphere. It is great both for competitors and for people looking for a supportive environment to start a fun new hobby.
Very friendly staff and members. Coaches are really easy going, and offer plenty of time to practice material. It’s a great place for causals, kids, women, and even for professional and amateur fighters.
If you are on the fence about trying martial arts, I definitely encourage you to try a class. ATT has a very good reputation in the martial arts world. It’s a great place to get in shape, make friends, and learn.
Great place to train at any level, beginners to pros. We all train together how it should be. Coaches are highly skilled and good peoples. Ive Made a lot of good friends because of this place. I plan on being with these guys for the whole journey. Try a class!!!
ATT LONGWOOD is hands down the best gym around central Florida as soon as i started going there i realized that was the place to be to get where I wanted to go, if you want to fight, get in shape, or just looking for something different to try out this is the place to be with some of the best coaches around that have plenty of experience in different martial arts, they also have a great after school programs for kids which teaches them respect ,discipline, self confidence and last but not least how to defend themselves. Go to them for a trial class and see for yourself
Awesome place, great people, my kids had a great time there for summer now they miss it. highly recommended! adult program is great so are the kids and fitness program.
My sons attend this gym. The trainers and owners are great. The summer camp staff was spectacular with my two young boys and I love that they got to learn different athletic skills as well as have fun and go on some great field trips. Barbara, Milan, Crystal- all of the summer camp staff were great. The trainers taught my 7 year old to grapple and nows he even wants to compete. So proud and love his new competitive interest!
Family oriented, great group! Highly recommend.
The place is very organized and professional. They welcomed me from my old gym and let me train immediately. They worked with me financially to help me afford payments. Already a good deal. They aren't a bunch of tough guys trying to hurt you. Won't let you spar until you are really ready. Nice people. 6 days out of the week throughout the whole day they have training. No matter your schedule you CAN make it in to train. Also they can find you fights if you're looking to really fight. If you want to just learn some technique and get in shape they have that too. Good equipment and great experienced trainers. Real combat that will work in REAL fights. No self defense, karate, breaking boards BS. Theyre confident in what they teach so they even offer a free trial of a week or 2 to see if its for you. Its definitely one of the best MMA gyms in Florida. Highly recommended and ill probably go pro at this gym one day.
ATT Longwood has not only been a major blessing and a big enhancement on my skills as a fighter but it has been a home for me ever since moving to a completely new city by myself! Whether you’re looking to get in great shape or to compete, ATT Longwood has everything you need under the amazing guidance and curriculum of the world class coaching!
American top team longwood is the best gym hands to that’s my second home and I don’t consider them friends those are my brothers everyone helps everyone out and on top of that we embrace the grind and make champions
This has to be one of the best schools that teach all forms of mix martial arts. I’ve been attending for a few years now and my three kids have started attending. The summer and winter programs are phenomenal for kids. Joe and his team are one of a kind. I highly recommend this school to anyone who’s been interested in Mixed martial Arts or even if you want to get fit.
I'm very new to this facility. I've seen nothing but professionalism and NO ego."Hit as hard as you want to be hit, but leave your ego at the door" They hold true to this statement...
Great jiu jitsu and Muay thai, the subgrap (no gi BJJ) is very good. All instructors are well highly skilled and we'll versed with real experience. I came from a traditional karate background looking to increase my arsenal and hopefully start competitive MMA, and this gym preformed on all fr9nts.
Complete structured classes with no ego! The space and size are perfect and the instructor's are all experienced and are humble and always willing to explain whatever you may need. Kids to adults, you are in good hands!!
Its always a good experience when I attend classes at the long wood american top team gym. Joe, Jose, and Cole are all amazing instructors and keep the classes challenging yet fun. The atmosphere is always very friendly. I wish I had found this gym sooner.
Trainers are super friendly and knowledgeable. You'll become a beast in a couple of months if you push hard. I love this place and recommend it to everyone.
If you want to make great friends, pick up an awesome hobby, and get in shape, this is the place to go. There's a variety of classes to choose from for anybody and all of the instructors are helpful and supportive in seeing you progress. I'm happy that I found this place for getting into martial arts.
This is a school that students can feel relaxed at, but yet sweat their butts off. The instructors are intelligent, thoughtful, and highly skilled in their arts.
If you want to get into shape, and lose a lot of weight, learn how to PROTECT YOUR FAMILY. American Top Team Longwood, is the right place for you.
Great Jujitsu, excellent Muay Thai, if you're looking to become the next MMA champ this is the place to train.
I'm in my 50s and every class I take, just makes me feel younger, stronger and healthier, I love this school!
I trained at ATT Longwood for a little over a year and I genuinely don't have a single negative thing to say. From the top down, I received professional treatment, a welcoming atmosphere from both staff and students, and high level technical coaching. Even though I entered as a complete novice in martial arts, the classes were ran in a way that I was consistently comfortable and matched up with someone where I could learn as well as be challenged. I attended Muay Thai, BJJ, and MMA classes, and I can genuinely say my only regret is not training there more before having to move away for work.
Joe, Jose, and Dave ran the classes I mainly attended; they were all excellent coaches that will push you physically and monitor your understanding of the techniques so that you are constantly improving. The environment was always competitive, but was never overly aggressive in nature. That is not to say that some of the guys didn't go at it some of the times, which they did, but it was always mutual and with sportsmanlike intent.
Whether you are an experienced practitioner with interest in competing that is looking for high level coaches or a complete beginner looking for exercise and maybe a confidence boost, I highly recommend ATT Longwood.
I've been training at American Top Team Longwood for approximately 2years and can sincerely say it has been one of the best decisions I've made for myself. From the world class instructors to the incredibly talented students who are all there to help you achieve your goals. Whether that goal is to get in the best shape of your life, learn a martial art, or become a professional fighter. They offer programs for every level. I recommend ATT longwood/wintersprings to everyone. All you need to do is have a positive attitude and show up! You owe it to yourself to check it out....
Before I became an instructor here at American Top Team LongwoodI trained at another ATT school. I have to tell you that the level of training is excellent at both but the atmosphere and the attention you recieve at ATT Longwood is what made me stay here. Great instruction from top level teachers and well a a family atmosphere. It is my home away from home and I'm glad I can give others that Intruction and family feel.
I have trained at quite a few MMA schools and this is by far THE BEST !!
Instructors are motivating, very experienced and all know what they are doing
I see a lot of pro fighters coming out of here....so glad I joined!!! A T T <3
ATT Longwood is the BEST MMA school in the area! I trained there from 2008 to 2009. The instructions were very patient and showed us excellent technique. Not only did they show us HOW to stand, defend, feint, punch, kick, etc, they also showed us WHY it was important to do it that way.
Whether you are just starting out and only want to be able to defend yourself from bullies with bad haircuts or you want to be able to fight like the guys in the UFC and many other major MMA orgs, this is the place you want to train.
Started this place last year sometime around Aug or so. We had our testing waters class and it was good. The staff here is really nice a friendly and somewhat understanding. Great workouts for the most part. Everyone that goes here is friendly as well.
The reason behind the 2 star rating though is, for me, you cant just train by yourself with a bag or anything your always with another person and for me that was super uncomfortable. I still tried to stick it out but just couldn't. Too awkward. So if you've got social anxiety its not the place for you.
Also, We paid well around 1600$ for 2 people for a 1 year pass with the confidence of what the website said about if we aren't able to reach our goals that they didnt want our money and would give it back,guarenteed. So we just went for it. Well after it got to uncomfortable and we stopped going we had emailed and asked if we could get a small portion of our 1600$ back since we only made it about 2 or 3 months out of the 12 we paid for and i think we just got the cold shoulder about the subject with no response at all.
They are not very friendly at all. When you walk in i’m never greeted and a child called my child the N word and they never did really anything about it. When i asked for my money back they said they don’t do that. I should have NEVER paid for a whole year now im out of thousands of dollars.
Despite of the great reviews. I called today requesting information about prices. The representative who answered the phone I would say that had poor customer service skills, he did not even mentioned his name so I have no way exacly to point out whom it was. Obviously, I want to find out about prices first to see if it's in my budget before I try a free class. I kept asking about prices and the last thing this individual said to me was; "when you are ready to try a class give us a call back," and hung up. 0 answers on prices, thus, I am no longer interested. The only pleasant experience I've had so far is when I went to try out MMA Jungle, however, it is really far from me, and this is the reason why I was looking for something closer within a 10 mile radius.
