If you're looking for a place for your child to learn self-defense skills, build their confidence and have consistently healthy interactions with children and adults, Patriot Combat Sports checks all those boxes. My six-year-old son has been training for three months and benefits from the structure and patient instruction of Professor Leo. The other kiddos are also great at showing my son "the ropes." I continue to be impressed by the positive and respectful environment. If you're thinking about giving Patriot Combat Sports a try, I highly recommend it.

When I was going through some of the hardest times in my life, this gym not only offered me an escape but gave me purpose. Leo is an outstanding instructor and person. The passion he brings to the gym shines through his students and onto the mats. If you want a positive and motivating change in your life, please visit this gym and see for yourself what it can offer you. Although I’m somewhat new to this gym, I already feel accepted and part of a team.

We are new to the boxing world. My 13 YO daughter has struggled to find a sport that she enjoys. She wanted to build confidence, get more active and make friends. She surprised me with asking to try boxing out. I researched gyms and found Patriot Combat and made an online inquiry. Leo contacted me and we set up a trial class. The first thing I noticed was how clean the space was. The staff and students there are incredible. Right away my daughter was comfortable. Her instructor made sure to give individual attention and instruction to each boxer. As a parent, it was so great to see my kid finally enjoy a sport. Safety, growth and personal goals are prioritized. I didn’t feel pressured to join and it was a very laid back atmosphere. We are really excited to start our journey with Patriot Combat Sports!

I’ve been going to Patriot Combat Sports for 3 weeks and the few things that jump out to me first is the instruction and philosophy. The staff takes the time to clearly show and allow you to drill every move, while correcting and constantly giving advice. The level of camaraderie among both the instructors and the students reminds you more of a family, which keeps you coming back. The gym doesn’t focus on combat, but the arts of self defense, which is taught day one. So even if you choose not to continue on, you will have the fundamentals to be able to protect yourself from harm.

I just started going here and I was hooked from the first day. The first thing I noticed was how clean the gym was. The second thing I noticed was the instructors giving great advice, demonstrating each exercise and watching closely to each person to give constructive feedback and advice. Once I got on the mats I got the same treatment. Coach acknowledged me with constructive criticism and compliments on what i did well, Also the guys and gals in class are all very nice and the vibe here is fantastic! Coaches and students all very welcoming. I’ve only been to 2 classes, but I’m already feeling like part of the team. If you’re interested in learning combat sports for self defense or just for fun. I definitely recommend you check out Patriot Combat Sports!

Such a great welcoming place, everyone shares the same goal to learn. I've never felt judged once in the 6 months I've been here. Outside of combats there's alot you can take from the environment they give you. In your first 2 introduction classes you can learn basic self defense skills so even if you decide not to join you can leave with the skills to defend yourself. I think that says alot about what Patriot combat sports is about.

We have a very active 6 year old son and often times has challenges with behavior skills. We have enrolled him in a few extracurricular activities over the last several years, but still had our challenges. I heard about this one specific organization called “Combat Patriot Sports” that has an family-oriented atmosphere. From the first day of walking in the door to check out the facilities and for our son to participate as guest in the children’s class of Jiu Jitsu, Professor Leo welcomed us with open arms. It was hard to believe the patience and structure that he has put together with these kids ages (3-7). Professor Leo breaks every technique down into an understandable steps for the youth kids to understand. Did I mention that there is a balcony where you can observe the classes. It is obvious that Professor Leo is passionate what he does and the support of his students has developed an fun, family, discipline, and safe place for our son to grow and develop his skills.

A friend of mine recommend I check out Patriot Combat Sports and so after checking out a couple of other places in town with my young son we decided to give PCS a try. I heard that it was in a church building and that Leo is a great guy who will work with you. I am so glad I visited because what I found was more than an awesome gym, I found a place we could call home and a great group of hard working, humble people who are willing to help a young family learn. As for Professor Leo, he has worked with my wife and our two young children and has made us feel right at home. The gym is clean and perfectly suited for participants and their families alike with a balcony for parents and young children to watch. Never thought we would be interested in getting my whole family involved in self-defense training, but Leo worked with us each step of the way answering all of our questions and made us feel very welcome. Thank you Professor Leo and Patriot Combat Sports for making my family feel right at home!

I have enjoyed my time learning Brazilian jiu-jitsu at Patriot Combat Sports so far. After about 3 yrs of not working out (and no jiu-jitsu background), I was very nervous to begin. However, the pacing has been great. Thankfully, the whole gym has thick mats, so falling or even getting flipped has been fun. Because of personal beliefs, my husband and I requested to only grapple with each other or each with our own gender, and we've been accommodated every time, which proves that Professor Aponte truly does care about making us feel comfortable in this new environment. I am also grateful that he has been very patient and knowledgeable in dealing with our small children. His patience has been truly refreshing! (I also like that the gym has a balcony for spectators, and that the women's dressing room downstairs has soft faux fur rugs. Nice touch.)

Coach Leo Aponte is a PHENOMENAL instructor. We trained with him for months and love the way he teaches. He breaks everything down into very understandable steps and patiently answers every question you have. He is a black belt who puts careful thought into lessons. One month in particular he showed an entire series of attacks, sweeps, and defenses from a single starting position, each lesson building upon the prior one. We loved it. Beyond that, he is a tremendous, down-to-Earth friend, with a great sense of humor! It was great fun getting to know him and hearing his stories after classes, whether chatting on the mats or meeting for chicken wings at the local pub. Coach Leo represents all that’s wonderful about the jiu jitsu community. No matter your skill level, whether you come for one class or train until you’re a black belt yourself, you will be welcomed and you will have a great time.

Coach Leo helped me with my Jiu Jitsu early in my training. And the lessons and phrases he ties in with technique has stayed with me throughout my development. I hope to continue to learn from him at his new facility Patriot Combat Sports and I hope to see plenty of new faces who appreciate Coach Leo's teaching style as much as I do!

I met Leo when he was instructing at Freedom Fitness in Brighton. I always enjoyed when he was teaching class. Leo has a way of breaking things down to help us beginners understand the basics of a technique while also being able to layer in some the more nuanced aspects helping the upper belts also continue to work and get better in every class. He stresses safety and I can still hear his voice saying "be careful and don't break your toys!" 😄 If you don't get the phrase, you will after training with him. He pushes you to get better in a patient and always thoughtful way. I highly recommend Leo, if you're fortunate enough to live in his area and can attend his facility, you won't be disappointed in what you find.

Where to begin! Coach Leo is an amazing instructor. Not only is he very knowledgeable but the way he conveys his lessons is very easy to digest and retain. He breaks down techniques down to the smallest nuanced detail to help you understand how to apply them with the most effectiveness. One of the biggest things that I noticed throughout the many classes I’ve taken is that Coach Leo can make classes interesting and applicable to students of all skill levels. Whether you are a brand new white belt or a seasoned upper level belt, his lessons are worthwhile and applicable. No matter where you are in your martial arts journey, Coach Leo finds where you are individually and helps take you to the next level. Aside from being an excellent professor, Coach Leo is just an overall great and caring person who emulates his passion. He treats all adults and children with kindness and respect. As a US Veteran himself, he makes us service members and veterans feel welcome and appreciated. Take your skills to the next level with Coach Leo, you will not regret it!

Professor Leo is one of my favorite instructors I've trained under. I've trained at 3-5 different schools in 12 years and my time with Leo is one of the most advanced learnings I had. Great attention to detail, structure and environment. You will definitely get your moneys worth and make new friends and experience personal growth with a supportive team!

Coach Leo does an outstanding job. He was my children's coach years ago and we were very excited to have him back in Jackson. He explains to the kids how to do moves properly but also why they are taught this way. You feel the true compassion for not only his love of what he is instructing but also how much he cares that kids understood. We highly recommend Patriot Combat Sports

I’ve trained Brazilian jiu-jitsu for over five years bouncing from gym to gym. From gyms right down the road to traveling 45 miles, finally landing at Patriot Combat Sports. Coach Leo is hands down one of the best out there. He brings his teaching background to break down each specific movement in the technique he’s teaching. He makes the workouts fun and enjoyable. Workouts that are fun and enjoyable? It’s definitely worth checking out whether you’re looking for a self-defense class or just an enjoyable workout.

Leo is an amazing instructor. He's able to breakdown advanced techniques into simple to understand steps. The gym location and setting is great, and it's hard to beat mat space the size of a basketball court!

Brand new clean facility. Excellent course curriculum structure from a over qualified instructor. In my time training under Leo my Jiu-Jitsu game went to the next level. He also offers a variety of other services at this facility. Give them a shout to find out more!

Patriot combat sports is worth the value. Leo Aponte is a school teacher, so he works wonderfully with children. He coached wrestling at the schools for years. He is also a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. He is very good at breaking things down for new people and those experienced alike.
