Family friendly to the max, I’m glad my kids are apart of this, both kids have found a love for what they do here. And the parents here are very welcoming as well. Even the instructors are kind but expect the students to be mindful of the things everyone learns.
Posted 1 year agoProfessor Eduardo Mori has been an amazing inspiration in my life and many many others. He showed me how to believe in my self through hard work and training he showed me I could do things unimaginable physically and mentally. Brazilian jiu-jitsu helps you brake mental barriers and by all accounts Eduardo Mori and his wife Rachel Mori show the vary essence and empowerment of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in a fun family environment.. BELIEVE IN YOUR SELF!! OSSSSS!!!
This is a great academy with lots of high-level athletes and great instructors. Good place to go if you want to level your game up!!
I have been going to the gym for nearly 3 months now and I am happy to see the passion that Professor Mori brings to each class. He truly cares about the growth of his students and always gives his best no matter the circumstances. Don't be afraid to try training at this gym, after all, everyone you meet end up becoming family.
If you want to unlock all of your potential and learn from the best this is the place to go. Mori is passionate about all things combat and will make sure you hone your skills.
I started going to this training center 3-weeks ago as something to help me get into shape and to have fun. I feel like I’ve made a lot of progress while having a total blast. I know I have a long way to go in order to reach my fitness goals but with the amazing team and community surrounding this place, I have never been more certain I can achieve anything. Can’t wait for my next class!
As a traveler coming from out of town I was hesitant to try a new gym. This gym made me feel right at home ,welcome ,safe ,and secure. Just within one night of training I've learned a move in jiu-jitsu I will continue to practice and add to my arsenal. I also enjoyed sparring with some of the MMA guys . They're very calm collective and controlled recommend this gym for anyone scared to try something new.
Coach Mori is the best. High intellect when it comes to grappling and his instructional skills are insurmountable. A McChicken with an IQ of 37 could learn something from him. The knowledge you get from the classes is truly priceless. The boxing and Muay Thai instructors are amazing as well
This is the best gym in town. There is a friendly and welcoming vibe. Everyone is so nice, and the training is legit!
Awesome gym! Awesome people! (And very clean!!)
Loved our experience today from the Mori Jiujitsu training center. Our youth group was given demonstrations on self defense and basic moves to get away from an attacker from the adult class and it was so fun to see the older more experienced members teaching our youth. It was engaging and very important skills to learn for sure. Thanks for the amazing and inspiring experience!
The atmosphere of this gym is like no other. So welcoming and inviting! The instructors are very knowledgeable and are great teachers.
Amazing gym with world champs. Humble, funny, awesome atmosphere full of good people. Eddie is a great teacher and there are many other teachers there that are great as well.
We have gone for years! Such an impressive place to study Jujitsu! As well as other forms of Martial Arts. It truly is a family welcoming environment with expectations to progress and improve no matter the age. Being lead and trained by Professor Eddie Mori himself along with elite athletes whom have studied directly under his direct leadership. Producing extremely gifted athletes to name one would be Amy Campo whom has only studied under Professor Mori and is a 5X IBJJF World Champion and ADCC Champion. I would recommend this Gym 100 percent!
So hands-down the best place to learn jiu jitsu, Muaythai and etc. Mori and his team are the best teachers out there. My son has been going for 6 months and he has done many improvements in life since he has been going, he has had a hard time in school but since he has been going it has helped him so much in his schooling. Thet teach them life lessons as well. It has helped him so much with his self esteem and has become much more respectful towards his family and friends.It is a great place for kids and adults.My son has become super close with a lot of kids and especially his coaches and especially his Muay Thai teacher who is a world champion.
This is a 10 out of 10 school amazing Brazilian jujitsu with great technique and amazing coaches always there to help and give good advice. in their Muaythai is also top-of-the-line. again with a great trainer and great community as well. Always looking out for each other and helping out I would 100% recommend the school I have been through multiple training academies and not one of them, compare to how amazing this gym really is
This Is A Great Place To Learn Self Defense And I Go There On Monday Wednesday And Thursdays
Great coaching
High level, Brazilian jujitsu gym!
It seems like a great place for my daughter to try jujitsu , today was her first day and she enjoyed it . There's alot of kids in the class though but at least there's girls in there my daughters size.
An absolute world class gym! Whether you’re looking for a great atmosphere to learn as a hobby or test yourself as a competitor, this is the place you want to be. The gym offers a full array of formats from kickboxing to BJJ, with experienced and extremely knowledgeable coaches. The gym is home to many IBJJF world champions and current 2022 ADCC Champion which just shows the caliber of people that attend. Classes are structured with a purpose to help enhance technique and knowledge base so you’re always training for a purpose. Everyone at the gym is like a family and always willing to dissect movements to help other understand and grasp what is being taught. Additionally, if you’re looking for a great atmosphere for kids then you’re also in the right place. I have never seen many of the younger generation training and learning then when i am here. Anything that was said above also applies for the children where flourishing in this sport and art will happen. Coach Mori, his wife, family, and other coaches truly set the tone!
Our family cannot reccomend Mori Training Center enough. The absolute best family has run/owned it since we started training here over 10 years ago and even though we took a very long break, we just brought our kids back and were welcomed back with a smile from everyone we talked to. Very casual atmosphere, but you get right into training which is exactly what we wanted. If you want a place that feels like home while taking your training seriously, I highly suggest checking it out!
Professor mori is not only a excellent instructor and produces some of the top competitors in the country, but he cares about his students and wants them to benefit their community by showing respect to all. It is a honor to know him for over 20 years. This schools is must train at place for anyone looking to learn Jiu jitsu
Amazing gym and great class instructed by Professor Eduardo. His students are very technical and very well rounded. I was welcomed with open arms and every one was polite and respectful. If you are ever in Ogden, I would definitely recommend you to stop by and visit.
Visited gym for an open mat. Great people, facility, and instructor. Definitely worth checking out.
Profesdor Eddie and everyone else make jiu jistu like a real family. Whether you are looking to start your kids or, like me, starting something new at 46; this place is fantastic.
Great training.
Love this place. The instructors are amazing. They are so good with the kids and helping them learn the techniques.
Eddie is a great instructor. I visit Ogden regularly because of work and I am glad to have found a second home gym. The members are very welcoming and help push you to improve your skills. I have been blessed to have trained extensively at some great gyms in other cities and I hold Mori's in this same high regard. It has the ideal combination of great people and great instruction. Come to learn BJJ, and you will stay because of the extended family you meet on the mats.
I cannot say how much I truly appreciate Mori’s passion and dedication to his gym and each one of his students. I have train extensively with other gyms in Utah and can sincerely say I really appreciate the extra effort he puts into breaking down techniques and showing moves. Not just for BJJ, but also for self defense, Muay Thai or MMA. He clearly explains gym expectations, and treats every single person like part of the team. His enthusiasm and passion is absolutely contagious and he makes learning fun, and easy. His gym and students are really a reflection of who he is as a coach. Nothing but good vibes, and a fun people (he’s really funny too 😆) Practices fly by, and I have yet to walk away from a training session without feeling like I worked hard, learned, and genuinely got better. I really could go on about all the aspects of what sets him apart as a coach, but I would really just recommend you go Mori’s and try it for yourself!
The best place to train they show you how to do the moves and if you don’t do it right they make you do it over and over and over till you get it so you do it right they care that you learn not just take your money I love this place!!
"A good coach can change a game. A great coach can change a life." Professor Mori has truly been a great mentor and coach to me with the short amount of time I have trained there. As a military member, you can feel the camaraderie throughout the gym. Mori Academy is place that my son and I can train and feel absolutely welcome. Additionally, the training style is phenomenal. You can see that coach is very passionate about his craft that he gives you informative detail with ever move.
Started training here a few weeks ago and I can’t say enough good things about this place. Love the staff and the people who train here.
Great gym, nice people, and great instructors!
Been training here for a year and I am so glad I started with Mori. Eddie is an excellent coach and every student, from his most experienced to the newer students, are all welcoming and eager to help anyone. I've lost weight, met incredible people, and am developing a skill I have always wanted to have.
He made me a ninja 💪
Great instructors and great community if your looking for some top quality training. I had the opportunity in training with these motivated individuals during my two week vacation. This school welcomes u with open arms and I recommend them to anyone. Thank you Eduardo for allowing me to train with you guys. Vic Flo
I started a year ago, and now thjs gym is like a second home. Its welcoming, and its the best instruction you can get in the state!
Very good!
The best gym in Utah in my opinion!!
I started training at Mori's because I was looking for a change in my fitness routine... it was the absolute best decision I could’ve made. The level of education that you can get at Mori’s is unparalleled on all levels: striking, grappling, you name it. The coaches know just how to adapt each class to accommodate all skill levels from kids and novices, to pro fighters, and you really feel that every individual is welcome regardless of their fitness level. Not only do you get unmatched training at this gym, you also get a sense of community. Mori’s has really become another family for me, and you are given the opportunity to build real, and very lasting connections with all types of individuals. I have grown so much since starting at Mori’s both mentally and physically, and I would absolutely recommend anyone to come and try it out. I promise you, there is not another gym in Utah that comes close to what Eduardo Mori offers at Mori Training Center.
Great gym with an amazing coach and atmosphere. Eddie is very knowledgeable and is able to put himself in the perspective of the student to teach them well. Great atmosphere, family oriented and a very welcoming gym! A great place to go if you want to learn BJJ, Muay Thai, and Boxing! Each class also provides a great workout. Lost 20 pounds within a month and 2 weeks after starting at the gym!
Best gym I’ve trained at. Very knowledgeable and experienced trainer and students.
World class gym with excellent fighters and instructors. I’ve been training here for 6 months after checking out all the MMA gyms in the Ogden area and the level of instruction, training and genuine sense of community you find at Mori is unmatched
I was 260 pounds when I first started then 6 months later I lost about 40 pounds. I love training over ther because I get pushed to my limits eveyone has told me how smaller I got over the months. I rather be there then the gym. And everyone is friendly.
Post by: Jonathan McGregor. I had the absolute pleasure of training at this school while visiting family in Utah. Everyone was dedicated to the discipline of Jiu jitsu, Eduardo Mori; the owner, was awsome and deminstrated the passion and knowledge that I aspire too in my BJJ jouney . I also saw a comredry and family friendly apmospher that inspires kids and adults to be their best. I will always train at this school under Eduardo Mori when I visit Ogden.
My son has been attending this center for about 5 months and he has significantly improve his perceptive about fitness centers. He disliked going to gyms or fitness center because he feel the people would stare at him making feel uncomfortable. We found this center and we absolutely love it! A unique thing about this is fitness center is that Eddie treats his trainees like family he's passionate about what he does and really care for the people who he trains. VERY WELCOMING CENTER, and most importantly a very positive environment!
Mori always pushes you to do better. I've been going for a year and i always learn something new.
Best training gym in the state. Eddie Mori is amazing .
Eddie is a great teacher and he makes sure to help everyone out however he can. The environment is great for training. Everyone helps each other learn and grow and nobody goes in to hurt each other. I have been coming here for over a year, training Muay Thai and Jujitsu. And I plan to come here indefinitely
World class training all the way around.
love this place!!! Eddie knows his jiu jitsu and everyone here is family. Great place for all skill levels glad to be a part of it.
Very good gym for all ages. Perfect for world class competitors or anyone just wanting to get fit. Friendly and respectful atmosphere from instructors and students alike
Best bjj training around I wish I could come everyday
An amazing professional trainer for kids and adults.
As you can see 60 plus reviews and still 5 Star rating. this Gym has the very best Brazilian jiu jitsu classes you can find In Utah, Eddi is a Dedicated trainer who will help anyone exceed no matter what skill level. But the best part is the GYM's atmosphere. so many great people all working together to better the people around them. I could go on and on but better for you to come down and try it for yourself.
If passion with technical training is what one seeks.. 5 stars at Mori training center is what you will always recieve..
As a group of 11 women aged between 12-36 we went for a lesson in self defence, had an amazing time, the teachers were perfect, friendly, confident, patient and skilled. We learned so much, a lot more than we expected....highly recommended.
For over 3 years I have been going to this gym. My son has been in the Jiu-Jitsu classes and learned a lot even though he struggles with learning. They are patient, kind, but very good keeping the kids interested in class. I love every aspect here from the phenomenal Jim-Jitsu master Eddy to the other trainers. Every one of them are first class and the best in the state in my opinion. They have world class Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Kick Boxing, Boxing, Boot Camp classes, and kick boxing conditioning. Check them out. You wont regret it.
My children have been attending Mori Training Academy for about 4 months now. I am impressed with their progress already and have seen them grow outside the gym as a result of their time here. Highly recommend this place no matter what your goals are. BJJ, MMA, weight loss, you name it. This is the place.
Eddie is very detailed when it come to explaining and showing technique, he is humble, awesome attitude love it!!!!
Great gym for all skill levels and family friendly. Check it out.
If you want to learn very technical and disciplined Jiu-jitsu then Eddie Mori is the coach for you.
I have trained at multiple gyms in the last three and a half years, two in South Korea, three in Italy, one in Israel, one in Washington state and finally Mori MMA here in Ogden, Utah. No where else have I experienced this level of instruction and had this much fun getting my ass kicked when it comes to bjj. It's nothing against other gyms, many here are great but Eddie's ability to instruct and push those who are willing to be pushed is just on a different level than what i have seen before. On top of that, his Muay thai class never ceases to leave me with a worn out grin as I sit against the wall wondering how many pounds of sweat i just lost. Do your self a favor and check out the class, it's worth it.
Great place to train beginer or master, atnosphere is great and way family friendly. The teachers are down to earth and a geuin pleasure to be around
The only place my baby is allowed to be with me, way better than the gym. Motivates me to do better each day :)
Love the experience of learning from Eddy !
You're not going to find a better all around person that expects the best out of his students. He's always looking to improve his students and make sure they will succeed both on and off the mat.
I love this place, the environment is very friendly and fun. A great learning environment. Eddie is one of the best instructors out there. I would recommend this gym to anyone interested. 👍
Professor Mori is an excellent, knowledgable, and motivating instructor. His classes provide technique and also conditioning to get you in shape. Mori emphasizes proper form and correct movement to make sure you really understand what you are doing. People are friendly and there's a strong feeling of community at the gym.
Safe family environment. I would recommend this place to enyone.
Great instructor. I love the new facility and location. The best bjj gym in the area!
There is no doubt Eddie is the most knowledgeable instructor I have studied under. He provides a great environment for both beginners and expert. First generation Gracie Black Belt.
Best money i ever spent.
Best place to train love the people there Eddie is a great teacher great boxing kickboxing bbj muay Thai
Been with this gym since early 2000. I've tried other gyms in the past but nothing compares to the level of teaching you get here. My Jiu Jitsu has increased tremendously and we are the most decorated and winning team around. Coming here you're part of a close knit team that feels more like family.
I have been training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu since May 20, 2013. I started with Eduardo and have never looked back. I have competed in several tournaments and won many of them under the instruction of Eddy. I moved in April of 2014 down to salt lake city and I still make the commute at least 3-4 times a week driving 35-45 minutes to train with Eddy even though there are at least 20 gyms in salt lake only minutes away. Eddy is one of the best instructors I have ever had the privilege to train with and learn from. The team there has become family and the gym is my second home. There is no better place to train and learn, and no better environment to be in. Look forward to seeing you all there, I'll be the one they call chocolate thunder! OSS!
Best place yet! You cannot get an more honest, and hard working, dedicated family owned Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Training Center that will show your best quality of yourself on the mat!!! 5 stars all the way!
I have never gone to a gym to train before because I am super shy. Eddie and Rachel both helped to make me feel comfortable at class. They spent time with me one on one, and were very patient. Eddie has helped me to put my shyness in a box and have a really good time. Love this gym!
This is one of the best gyms in Utah. If you wanna be the best and go place Professor Eduardo Mori and the Zenith family is the place to be. From Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to Kickboxing etc.... I highly recommend this gym to everyone .
Amazing instructor! My daughter loves coming here. He has taught her so much, along with all of the amazing staff. He enjoys what he does, and it shows. I'm glad we chose to come here.
We are so lucky we found this place. We have all 4 of our kids in class because Mori Training Center treats everyone like family. The best training for kids and adults alike. We have been training since mid October and one of my sons received a gold medal at his first competition. This is the best place to train especially for BJJ.
There is no better place to train BJJ at. The knowledge of the instructor, Eddy, and all the friendly people who train there, make this place your best choice.
My son trained at Mori for several years. In that time he accrued an entire wall of top level awards in intermediate & expert divisions. I attribute this directly to the high level of training provided by Eddy and his staff combined with the hard work my son put in. Once he turned 12 we made the heartbreaking decision to leave so he could pursue his dream of playing football and school sports (not enough time to do both and stay sain). Since he has excelled in football and wrestling. Jiu Jitsu has taught him coordination, balance, how to fall properly, and confidence in his ability. Most important it taught him toughness. Even if you find you are not the best on the mat you will learn to be tough and that can take you a long way in anything. We miss training at Mori everyday. To this day we are still friends with Eddy and keep him updated on my son's accomplishments.
Eddie has taught me MANY amazing arts. Kick-boxing, Self defense, and a mix of many others. He always made time for me and my family, and would go out of his way to help any of us. If you want to learn true martial arts,Don't look up another place. Go here. You can thank me later ;).
I absolutely love this gym and would recommend it to anyone, young and old. This is a family run business and you are treated like family. The instructor, Eddie, is the best you will find within the state of Utah and probably surrounding states. His culture, training background, and love for what he does makes this gym easily the best around. Eddie works his classes hard, and will not reward students until he feels they have surpassed the goals he has set for them. Whether this be 6 months, or two years, you have to earn your rewards...they will never be given to you. This isn't a job for Eddie, he loves what he does, and if you love what you do then you will never work a day in your life. I have so much respect for the Mori family and this gym, where they train the best!
Absolutely recommend to anyone looking to start serious training in Jiu Jitsu or Kickboxing to come and visit this gym before deciding where to train. I did a lot of research before choosing to train with Eddie. I wanted to be sure that I was going to a gym with a legitimate instructor and I wanted to be sure that it was a good healthy atmosphere. Wanted to be associated with good people. I've never regretted choosing Eddie. The training is real. He teaches real skills intended for competition or fighting. It's not like a tae-kwon-do class where you spend your hour kicking air and then getting a stripe on your belt. Think more of the type of training you get in high school when playing sports. It's not for someone who isn't concerned with learning proper technique, etc....(ala, someone who is looking for a Thai-Bo or local cardio kickboxing class, etc.), but we have all kinds of people at all kinds of mental and physical levels in all classes. Everything from weekend moms and grandmas who want to get in shape to professional fighters. Even my wife, who had never been involved in athletics other than running, and who is pretty squeemish about confrontation and touching other people, sweat, etc... started training kickboxing there and is now really good. I love sparring with her. I think that most anyone would be comfortable there. Quick history, I started working with Eddie several years ago after realizing I had to do something besides sit at a desk all day working. I can't force myself to run or just lift weights because I just can't get my butt out to do something with no real competition or goal. I wanted something where I was learning a skill and something I was interested in. I've always been into sports unitl I got married and had recently started really enjoying the UFC. Thought I'd give it a try and I love it. My wife and kids now train with me. It's awesome to have something like this to share together.
Love this Place!!!! Since being a beginner I have been here for about a year and learning proper techniques. The training is done very patiently and always made fun. The fitness aspect is amazing as you learn Jiu-Jitsu. What a great alternative to the regular gym, great for kids and their self esteem. Check this place out, you can't go wrong.
My kids have been training at the Mori Training Center for about a year. Eddie has taught my kids everything ranging from how to have good sportsmanship, being good teammates, learning great self-defense, and how to be competitive in the world of BJJ. My husband and children all take lessons from Eddie and we as a family have truly enjoyed being part of this gym, and Eddie's teaching.
My son has been going to the Mori Training Center for a few months. Eddi is by far the best coach in Utah. There is every type of student from beginner to professional fighters that treat everyone like family. Eddi loves teaching and coaching and it shows. I cant say enough about positive about this gym. If your looking for a new hobby or wanting to go pro this is the place to be.
Great place to learn self defense, and get fit doing it. The atmosphere is easy going and everyone helps each other learn.
I have been going to the Mori Training Center for a 1 year and 8 months. You wont find a better Jiu Jitsu instructor than Eddy. Great atmosphere of people who love learning jiu jitsu. We are a family there!!
This is a family business. Perfect place to take your children to learn self defense or to learn how to fight. The JIU-JItsu program is top notch with up to date jiu-jitsu. Affiliated with Robert Drysdale and Cavaca out of Las Vegas and Brazil... Now known as Zenith Jiu-Jitsu. They Train MMA fighters to the average Joe looking for a way to get into shape. Perfect for any Man, Women or child.
I love this place! Eddy is a great teacher!
Great gym good atmosphere and solid training I've excelled so much after being under Eddie in martial arts
Eddie has patience and a ton of experience! My son and I are brand new white belts with zero experience. Eddie and all of his students are terrific to work with us and show us correct technique and safety while challenging us to improve and grow within one of the fastest growing sports in the US. I highly recommend checking out this gym! Thank you Eddie! -Jeff Ross
Amazing exercise with plenty of one-on-one training throughout the class. I knew nothing coming in, and after a few weeks I felt more confident and had more strength than any other workout I've ever engaged in. Every class challenges me, technically and physically, and leaves me feeling accomplished. Watching guys from this gym win fights in under a minute is also quite inspiring!
