I had a great experience at UMF Academy. The membership process was very flexible, both when joining and cancelling. When I unexpectedly needed to move over 400 km away, Emilio kindly helped cancel my membership straight away. The classes were excellent too, combining practical training with theory, which really helped me understand and apply what I learned. I’ll miss training with Tanya and Emilio. Highly recommend!
I’ve really enjoyed the Krav Maga classes so far. They’re practical, interesting and easy to follow as a beginner. Emilio and Tanya are very friendly and supportive too.
UMF Academy is so much more than just learning! They genuinely focus on building character, confidence, resilience and positive values in their students, while creating a supportive and welcoming community. The social events are fantastic too — from Nerf discos to water fights at the park, the kids get plenty of opportunities to have fun, connect and build friendships. A wonderful environment where kids can learn, grow and have fun. Highly recommend UMF! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great place to learn Martial Arts. I did the Krav Maga classes and its top level instructors help you learn all situation with precision and confidence. I recomend for anybody
My granddaughter Milly absolutely loves attending United Martial Arts & Fitness in Garbutt for kickboxing! It has been wonderful to watch her grow in confidence and discipline with every single class. The instructors are incredibly supportive and create a fantastic, encouraging environment for kids. I highly recommend them!
I have been associated with UMF for over 20 years . This family UMF academy provides a great base for all ages . Building not only strength and ability but also mental strength, confidence and awareness that helps them in their every day life challenges. Watching children grow in confidence. Watching parents encouraging their children and watching the transformation in their children. More focused and building strong bonds between each other and others participating . No egos just a place to learn and grow
I began training at UMF almost four years ago after experiencing significant violence from a stranger. I felt a strong desire to learn how to properly defend myself. I started training Krav Maga and then later added Wing Chun and now BJJ. My experience has completely changed my life for the better. I have much more confidence in moving around the community knowing how to appropriately respond to many different situations, and I have increased my strength and fitness. The lessons that I have learnt here have enriched so many other parts of my life. The culture at UMF is wonderful - I have met so many genuine, kind and hard working people who I get to train with multiple times a week - UMF is truly my third place. Sifu Pablo and Sifu Emilio are fantastic instructors - I have watched them adapt their instruction to support the particular learning needs of students. For me as a middle-aged lady I have been challenged to push myself outside of my comfort zone but also accommodated for my specific needs (as I am also hearing impaired). I would absolutely recommend anyone curious about Krav Maga in Townsville, general self-defence or martial arts to come train with us at UMF ✨
My son has absolutely loved his time training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) at United Martial Arts & Fitness. Since starting, we’ve noticed positive changes in his confidence, resilience, and discipline, and he genuinely looks forward to each class. One of the biggest things we’ve noticed is how the discipline taught through BJJ carries over beyond the mats. The values and structure encouraged in class have helped reinforce discipline not only during training, but also at school and at home. The coaches create such a welcoming and supportive environment while still providing great structure and teaching important life values alongside skills. The classes are engaging, well organised, and make learning fun for the kids. What really stands out about UMF is the family atmosphere and the way they encourage every child to grow at their own pace while building confidence both on and off the mats. We highly recommend United Martial Arts & Fitness to any family looking for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Townsville.
I have been attending UMF for 20 years and have found the environment and experience excellent both in personal growth, learned expertise and a safe and positive environment to be challenged in. My children now attend the kids classes and it has been a joy to watch them grow into their own appreciation and confidence. Martial arts is for everyone of all ages and abilities, as my needs have changed so has my practice. This isn't just a place to learn. It's a place to find community, belonging and inner strength.
