We participated in Hammerhead Mixed Martial Arts children Judo and Brazilian Jui Jitsu class.Kids had a great time. It was a constructive class, focusing on the fundamentals and still keeping it fun for the kids with lots of tumbling and rolling.Age range was from 6 years and up with girls and boys together on the mat, just the way we liked it! Definitely can recommend it to the parents out there!
Experienced teachers who handle all ages well and have something to offer all skill levels.
Fantastic community of people at all different skill levels. Very supportive and welcoming. On top of that the instruction us fantastic with those who choose to complete being very successful.
The best gym I have been to. Perfect for all level of fighters. Joey Guels level of expertise is exceptional. Hes an experienced fighter that knows what works and what doesnt work. He shows a genuine interest in his students and does right by them. Guaranteed you will get better just by showing up. Dont hesitate to sign your children up. Every young women should take his classes, they will learn skills to protect themselves.
I recently moved back to Oly for work, and was really sad to leave my old MMA gym behind. I tried several other gyms in the area, but I didnt feel like I was home until I stepped through the doors at Hammerhead MMA. Everyone has been kind and welcoming, but I can tell that they are serious about training. As a female Im used to being one of the only girls in the gym, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that lots of really talented women train here.
I love Hammerhead MMA! As a woman practicing MMA, it’s hard to find a space to train where you feel comfortable and welcome. Hammerhead MMA has given me that feeling since day 1! There’s actually a lot of women who train at this gym! I have learned so much from Joey (head coach) and made some awesome friends along the way. I would recommend Hammerhead to anyone interested in trying MMA for the first time or people who have been doing it for years already. There’s a wide range of talent in the gym, competition opportunities as well as advancement opportunities!
Awesome gym, great gym for beginners and professionals.
I have trained at many different BJJ/MMA gyms and what makes this place outstanding is the friendliness and maturity of instructors and students, quality of instruction, and a complete range of skill level of training partners (novice to expert). Joey is one of the most experienced trainers in WA state and teaches technique in very effective and systematic way where one move flows to the next, and you get plenty of drills on a particular technique before moving onto the next. BJJ Black belts train here frequently and have different philosophies you can learn from.
Awesome gym great instruction so far, and they make you feel like family. If your a beginner dont be scared the veterans will help you learn the skills of mixed martial arts.
Learning so much. The instructor takes it step by step and makes sure to watch you and correct you. Everyone is nice and inviting, makes you feel a part of the team.
By far the best gym in this area. Joey Guel is a top notch instructer in multiple disciplines.His knowledge is derived frome years of actual mma combat across the globe.You can effectively train in multiple striking and grappling janras.Ive been training almost my whole life. I hate driving and wasting gas..... that said I pass 4 gyms that I know of to train at hammerhead
Great gym
