I love this place. You are always welcome at any skill level, and the instructors are kind, patient, and very skilled. It's a great environment. I always leave feeling a thousand times better than when I walked in.
Posted 7 months agoAmazing instructors. Great with kids. They were patient , kind and built confidence and discipline. Our grandson has been taking Jui Jitsu in Australia and is here for a 2 month visit. He fit right in and continued his training here. Thanks Ground Control
Posted 7 months agoI visited Ground Control when I was in town to see family, for a nogi class and open mat, and it was great. The space is clean and pleasant, with two mat areas. Class was fun, and as a visiting white belt, I felt safe and comfortable working with everyone. I had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of people in terms of size, skill level, and gender, which I appreciate. I had fun rolls at the open mat too, and thanks to Mike and Noel for teaching me some fun stuff while we were at it!
Posted 7 months agoHonestly a very great gym for starters and intermediates. you have spectacular coaches like professors Erin and coach Dancy who are extremely patient and knowledgeable, they will stay with you for a long time until you get the move correct. You have the Owner Mike, who’s really nice and understanding if you can’t make a payment on time or you don’t have enough to furlough it. this gym is very compelling because of the quantity of people that go here (not too much so your are not treated as a number, but as a real student) u have teammates who step out of their way to help you if they see you struggling. i really like this gym ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and i recommend it to all fellows.
Posted 9 months agoHighly recommend this gym. Even though this isn't my main gym since I live farther away, it's worth the drive. This is the place I go to when I want to go to an open mat, and I've also been to a few of their classes as a drop-in. It's a great, well-maintained facility in a pretty part of Baltimore County. It's full of friendly people and I always feel welcome here.
Posted 9 months agoNew facility, clean mats. Good and friendly people, great instruction. Would recommend!
This place is awesome, I started my martial arts journey here a year and a half ago and have found a new sense of confidence and many friends. Much Love <3
My Son has been going to classes for over a year. He loves coming to both Jiu Jitsu and striking classes. All of the coaches are great with the kids. His transformation has been amazing and it’s been a pleasure watching his confidence grow.
Dropped in for Sunday open mat. While personally NOT a no gi guy, we were welcomed like family. Everyone was very respectful. No one was "head hunting". This is definitely a legit BJJ academy. The butterfly guard game here was amazing. Super tough room. I was honest with everyone I rolled with, that I was currently fighting some injuries, and was just looking for some mat time. This was respected by everyone and they just flowed. I will definitely be dropping in more!!! Thank you to everyone who i met today, and spent time with me on the mat!!
Great academy. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming from the instructors to the other members. There is a great family vibe and the kids classes are well run. Facilities are also top notch and kept very clean.
I have been a member for close to a year. Fantastic community here. Owners are really dedicated to what they do. If you are looking for a school based on community and progress and not cutthroat attitudes you will be happy here.
My 11 year old son loves the classes, teachers and other kids. I have never seen him happier
It is a friendly gym with exceptional coaches
Coming from a different gym, my first class at Ground Control everyone was very nice and welcoming. Signing up is easy. All around great atmosphere. The facility is clean with quality equipment. I recommend Ground Control to anyone who wants to learn MMA at any skill level.
A member since opening week! Converted to a family membership shortly after. All the coaches show personal interest in their members development and create a welcoming atmosphere. Facility is NEW and excellent!
My kids have been training here for around 6 months. They love coming. The coaches are great with the kids and do a good job with making everybody feel welcomed. Thanks guys. Look forward to watching your gym grow.

The coaching is top notch. This is an excellent place for adults and kids to learn and build great friendships.
I recently joined Ground Control at Hunt Valley, and I have been thoroughly impressed with my experience so far. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, providing clear instructions and individualized attention to each student. The atmosphere is supportive and inclusive, making it easy for beginners like myself to feel comfortable while also challenging more experienced practitioners. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything needed for a great workout. Whether you're looking to improve your fitness, learn self-defense, or compete, I highly recommend this facility to anyone interested in MMA training.
Nice and clean facility! The staff takes great pride in having a clean and healthy environment to train. The instructors are not only very knowledgeable but great at teaching the material. Great kids program with instructors that’s are clearly loved by the kids. Highly recommend!
Ground Control is a nice place to train. People there are very friendly and welcoming.
Good vibes. Kickass open mat. Nice facilities. I’ll be back I really like this place. Miranda is an excellent coach
I joined my Brother Dancy’s MMA School to support him in his Business and also build upon Family Bonds. We have been Brothers since 2010. I told him once he opened his School, I was going to join him and train here. It’s a fantastic environment here at Ground Control. The Facilities welcome all experiences, whether you want to compete in Tournaments or just develop techniques, it’s all here. It’s really a Family Environment and you can trust your investment will be returned into creating foundations in Martial Arts and Health and Wellness. Come by and try a class, you will be impressed.
Awesome gym! Top notch staff! I'm excited to be a part of such a great community!
This isn’t my main gym but is the one I choose when I’m in the area, every time. The gym is clean and well equipped. The members are nice to train with being respectful and offering challenging sparing sessions. Both owners were there both times I trained and they are really cool guys.
I began my Mix Martial Arts journey at this school back in May of this year when it initially opened and I am so happy that I didn’t start anywhere else. The ethics and values of this school are astounding. If you’re looking to get better in all aspects of MMA, THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE! PS: I drive 40-60 minutes from home 4-5 days a week and it’s WORTH IT!
Shout out to the Amazing Coaches and students these warriors are true to the discipline of Martial Arts , the vibe is great and everyone you train with is respectful Ground Control is a true MMA Academy!
Absolutely love it here. Dancy and Mike are both class acts. Everyone here is very welcoming. All the coaches are knowledgeable and teach techniques that not only work at the highest levels of competition, but are also beginner friendly. One of the training areas has garage doors so you can train with fresh air when the weather is nice which is amazing. Not only would I recommend training here to anyone, I would go as far to say not stopping in at some point would be a mistake.
I had a really great experience training at Ground Control Hunt Valley. Very friendly environment and highly skilled instructors. The facility is top notch as well. I've been training for over 15 years and I would definitely recommend anyone in the area who is interested in marital arts training to check out GC Hunt Valley. If you're completely new to martial arts or if you've been training for years, you can find what you are looking for there
Beautiful facility with lots of parking and easy access off Hwy 83 near Hunt Valley Mall. Nice owners and staff who are approachable, honest, and ethical. Will definitely return.
Awesome facilities, Dancy and Mike are super friendly and enthusiastic, and went the extra mile to ensure everyone had a great time. Really cool spot to train for all experience levels!
