I have been going to the facility as my Armor Combat Chapter's new training grounds. The other occupants are super chill and we love having the space to be able to train in steel and soft kit! Quick plug, drop in and join us on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7:30pm to 10pm. EVERYONE (LITERALLY) is welcome! Do Buhurt!

Jack is a fantastic instructor. My two daughters have been going there for almost 2 years. Jack offers a great balance of discipline and education. The confidence this gym has provided my girls is fantastic.

Found out google lied to me about how close this gym was. I took up 15 minutes of Jack E.s' time before we found out. Not only did he understand I didn't want to drive 35 minutes to the gym, he helped me find a good one much closer to my home. If I ever relocate to this gyms area, I will absolutely join.

My son has been going here for over a year now and loves it. They do a great job with the kids. The staff and coaches do an excellent job. Jack makes sure they are learning together and getting some individual attention when needed. I would highly recommend them.

We go to the Mantua location and really like it. The instructor is great with the kids, even my daughter who is very shy. Great family atmosphere and the kids have already learned some great ways to defend themselves!

Love this place! Family-like atmosphere, clean and updated facilities. I just took the Women's Self Defense Seminar last Saturday and LOVED it. Have been training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for a year and a half and I have no complaints about the Fundamentals or the Advanced classes - great instructors and team mates!

My daughter has been attending classes for roughly 8 months and she loves it! She is learning to be as patient with herself as with others. Jack knows how to safely push the students outside of their comfort zone while while keeping them safe. Students learn that through hard work and staying focused they have the ability to accomplish anything (whether on or off the mat). Jack enforces being respectful to yourself and others while still having fun. I definitely recommend MAO for both children and adults and I am looking forward to possibly signing up for the women's jiu-jitsu classes.

The instructor here works great with the kids as a group and in individual instructions. My grandson enjoys him time there.

Gracious. Kind. Thoughtful. All words I wouldn’t have expected to use in my review of MAO when I signed up for Jiu Jitsu. However, they are all well earned. A warm thank you to everyone from the owner (Jack), Tommy (instructor) and all the other students that have been unbelievably patient with someone that has never done this before. I’m well past my physical prime but if anyone wants to ease that competitive nagging in their head or just get in better shape, Martial Art’s Ohio is the place I suggest.

Jack and his team do a fantastic job with kids and adults alike! I have been enrolled for about a year and a half and the kids have been going for about 6 months. The boys played soccer last year and didn't care for it. What a difference when we enrolled them in martial arts! They talk about it all the time and are super excited to learn and compete. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the community is fantastic. I cannot recommend highly enough!

Absolutely love this place, I look forward to coming here each day that my schedule will allow me to. The atmosphere here is very positive and you will be welcomed with open arms into the great community they have going. They take it serious but also make it light hearted and fun. I’d recommend this place to anyone of all ages and look forward to my journey here and can’t wait to compete representing Jack and Martial Arts Ohio.

I have had nothing but amazing experiences here. My confidence has increased, I have managed to lose weight with the kickboxing class and it is by far the best place to train martial arts. You will not only feel like family but you will feel better about yourself too. Lots of positive feed back, help when needed, and the trainers josh and jack are great as well! One of the best places to get fit and get train while having fun.

Enrolled the kids about six weeks ago and they are really enjoying their martial arts classes. From a parent perspective, I like how helpful the instructors and other students are during classes - everyone is focused on helping each other do better and advance. I also enjoy that they focus on being a well rounded martial artist, so classes vary between styles and activities (Kuk Sool, sparring, Jiu Jitsu, and more); it keeps everyone engaged and provides a really solid base. Really welcoming owner, staff, and members - it hasn't even been two full months yet and it's starting to feel like home.
