I really only came to this place because a friend told me I should check it out, but by the time I got there and watched him teach I was hooked. I ended up staying for 2-3 hours. Hes very understanding and easy to work with, whatever questions you have hes happy to help and work with you until you get it. Clean facility and very humble people which helps with training. Definitely a 10 out of 10 experience and Ill be a customer for a long time

I have been attending Marshalls boot camp for 3 months and have lost 30 lbs and have gained much muscle definition! His techniques both physically and mentally will change your life for the better! My 16 year old daughter has also been attending kick boxing and ju jitsu and she loves it! I highly recommend Marshalls MMA for the whole family!

I just had my first class and it was great! The teachers were very patient and instructive. I was worried that I would feel out of place but it was very beginner friendly and I’m definitely going back!Update: I have completed almost two weeks of classes and I am thoroughly loving it!! I am enrolled in both the kickboxing and jujitsu classes, and so I am at the MMA center 5 times per week. I was very grateful that Marshall worked with me when I told him that I have always wanted to do these classes but I could never afford them. He was more so inclined when I confided in him about being harassed before. That was what finally propelled me to call and he invited me in for a free class and a discussion. Our contract stated that I would have a HUGE discount and in return, I would help out around the center when needed. So far, I’ve folded shirts.😂 So I realized that he just said that so I wouldn’t feel like a charity case because there’s no hard work there to do!! I’ve been feeling more confident in my ability to defend myself if I’m ever in an unfavorable situation and I’m so grateful for his and Jabari’s (the other coach) patience as they work with us in developing our physically and mental abilities. Highly recommend!

Best martial arts gym in the state of Mississippi. Instructor is phenomenal and the fitness results show. I’m a returning student that came back for another round.

I am so glad I chose this academy to attend! I’ve wanted to invest in boxing for years! Finally, I was able to this year and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Marshall is very informative, knowledgeable, and more. I can see his passion for boxing every class meet. All of these things make me confident in him to provide me with the tools and techniques I need to succeed! In my opinion, he is the most genuine you will meet!

Marshall Arts is great for beginners and all levels. The instructors pay close attention to detail and assure everyone understands the lessons. For bbj, there are other females in the class to learn with which was important to me. Overall, Great people, Great atmosphere! I highly recommend it!

Marshall Arts MMA is the place to be. I had no idea what to expect but it was everything I needed. My kickboxing session was phenomenal. It was my first time doing anything like this and I truly enjoyed it. Marshall was very enthusiastic in showing me the techniques and encouraged me when I felt I wasnt doing good. The facility is super nice and clean and the other members were friendly and helpful. I love that it doesnt feel like a normal gym atmosphere but more so like a family. No judgment at all here. Im very excited about my fitness journey at Marshall Arts MMA. If you are considering joining, dont hesitate any longer.

I can see Marshall becoming an amazing mentor!

Coming in as a beginner I have already learned so much and I never feel judged for being less experienced as some of the other people. If I ever need to see a move or have questions everyone is ready and willing to help.

Great gym for martial arts training and boot camp! The owner offers zoom classes during the pandemic. He has helped me achieve my dream body and even helps with meal planning.

Marshall knows his stuff and knows how to teach a class, recommend to anyone trying to learn how to fight the right way

The best workout in town. He and his team not only work with you to get you in shape physically, but also mentally. The facility is very clean. He and his team cleans the mats and gear after every workout. I have been working out with Marshall for over 6 years and I still continue to receive consistent results!!

GREAT experience!! Loved the people and the instructor. Definitely will be back!!!

My first time coming I was late but everyone was so helpful and was willing to help me taking any of the classes is worth your time and effort. Definitely recommend coming here great place to be.

Mr.Marshall was very detailed and informative throughout the entire process. Not to mention the atmosphere was great. Everything about the experience was inviting and professional.

First day here coach Marshall push me to be great! YES the workout is very challenging but once I got home I felt sooo good. Better then any workout Ive ever had. Highly recommend anyone to join the family.P.S come on your A game because Marshall dont play. :)

If youre looking for a place that fosters a holistic approach when shaping and molding our youth, then look no further. Hands down, Marshall Arts MMA Academy, is the absolute best academy in town.

The training here is phenomenal and Marshall knows how to coach a great workout

Don’t sign up for anything until you know what you are signing up for ! I recommend you get a full understanding of contract and everything that comes along with it!

Marshall MMA Academy is one of the best MMA Academy’s in the area. This place teaches you far more than simply MMA as all MMA academy’s should. A lot of gyms in the area tend to be money hungry and not as engaging and personal. Marshall welcomes everyone and prioritizes each individual student. Marshall MMA Academy is an engaging and friendly environment to get a workout and learn how to properly defend yourself. Marshall MMA is THE BEST PLACE TO GO.

Great experience. Definitely recommend.

Marshall Arts MMA Academy is an awesome fitness center where the trainers believe that transforming the “inner self” is just as important as transforming the “outer self”. The facility is clean and the staff is professional. My son enjoys martial arts while I train/participate in intermediate bootcamp. We both look forward to our classes on Tuesday and Thursday of each week. If you’re hesitant about giving MMA Academy a try, don’t be. I look forward to seeing you soon!

Just got into this MMA Academy a few months ago and I’ve already learned a lot about Jiu Jitsu. One of the best coaches and teachers around, always making sure you understand every technique and why it’s important. Phenomenal place to learn.

The staff is nice and welcoming. I’d recommend for anyone .. beginners and experienced

Absolutely LOVE this gym!! It is squeaky clean, the instructors are super helpful and the workouts are AMAZING! As a young woman, kickboxing has taught me more ways to defend myself. Boot camp is challenging, but it will help me reach my body goals! 1000% judgement FREE zone. If I could put 10 stars, I would!! If you’re thinking about joining this gym or trying it out, DO IT!! Your body will love you for it!

Coach is very knowledgeable and great at making sure you have things down packed and you get the 1 on 1 training amongst a group of people. He gets you in shape while still teaching you the techniques so all in all it’s a great class to be in.

I love my kickboxing class! Marshall & his staff are all awesome teachers!! I learn something new every time I’m there!! They make working out really fun and enjoyable!

The classes are second to none. Marshall and his instructors break down the concepts step by step to make sure get it so when it may come a time for you to use it, you can’t emend yourself properly. It’s also a hell of a workout. The classes aren’t too long, and it’s fast paced. And no matter your height, weight, or size, there’s something for everyone. No matter why you may choose to start, Marshall instills us with concepts that we could apply for the rest of our life: Hard work, dedication, determination, perseverance, etc. And self defense...it’s really a plus. There’s a trial period where you could come for free, and you can decide whether it’s for you not, so you don’t feel like your wasting time and money. Give it a try, I PROMISE you, you will not regret it.

After just having my son 2 months ago I was worried about getting back in shape and also finding a clean as well as safe environment and I found just that at Marshall MMA. This is definitely my new workout home!!

Ive been going to Marshall for a few months now and I already have great results with toning and loosing belly in his bootcamp class . When I joined we discussed what I needed to work on and he made plans to target those areas with a very specific meal plan as well... i was very nervous about starting the kick boxing but Marshall made me very comfortable my first time and I definitely absolutely loved the experience... cant wait to learn more and see my goals accomplished in this gym....

I have received nothing less than amazing quality, professionalism, and great communication from Mr. Marshall. I came in with a problem and he came up with a great solution. I was giving a meal plan with some trainers never give. My first day he motivated me to keep going . My second day was awesome! It was also the day “CHAUNCEY DUPREE” the young man who left the negative comment/review. Which Mr. Marshall did not one time use profanity nor acted unprofessional. Marshall tried to motivate him and show him what he was doing wrong, as he did me on my first day. However Chauncey took multiple restrooms breaks and laughed when being corrected. He gave less effort which resulted in the entire class to do sprints. Chauncey grabbed his things and walked out, while the class continued. Overall I would recommend Mr. Marshall for losing or gaining weight.

This gym is AMAZING and definitely worth attending! The gym is very clean and the staff are awesome! I would highly recommend!

If you have fitness and/or kickboxing goals and are serious about those goals, Marshall Arts MMA Academy is the place to be. He will push you and not let you settle. No excuses allowed! If you follow the plan, you are guaranteed to get results. He teaches you the proper techniques and gives you a meal plan. Ive been going to Marshall off and on for about 5 years now. Each time I am mentally and physically stronger.

I had my first class tonight and I absolutely loved it! Great people with an amazing environment I instantly felt welcomed and they worked with me especially with it being my first time trying anything like this I highly recommend if your interested in checking them out!

Great help and facilities, this guy definitely knows what he’s doing. 10/10

It was a very good atmosphere and it was easy to pick up on the instructions given .

Great experience, super professional and very friendly. The workouts and training sessions are phenomenal I left the gym feeling tired but I woke up stronger the next day. I will definitely be going back.

One of the best places to train in Jackson! Not only are your provided great knowledge about bettering your health but you will get guaranteed results!!

I love this place My instructor Marshall is awesome he knows his stuff he takes his time making sure you build and understand the effectiveness of technique..he leaves no stone unturned. I would definitely recommend anyone to come sign up...you will not disappointed.

This is the most fun I have had learning anything. The attention from staff and guidance to get form right makes learning far less intimidating

I started attending Marshall Arts MMA Academy about 6 months ago to try my hand at kickboxing. The very first day Marshall saw my potential and pushed me to a limit I didn’t know I had. I just recently started his Bootcamp classes because I wanted to work on certain areas of my body. I started his diet along with Bootcamp and within 2 weeks I was at my target weight. If you’re looking to transform your life mentally and physically I recommend you start at Marshall Arts MMA Academy!!!!!

This mma gym is fire. This coach is awesome.

He pushes you out of your comfort zone for you to get the results you want. He does not allow you to give up on yourself and I’m super excited to go on this journey!

Very great place to learn how to defend yourself as well as a great to get a different type of workout

Marshall gets you the results you desire!!! He helped me go from a size 14 to a size 8! He will make you put in that WORK but you toll get results

If you want someone to yell and cuss at your face, try here. Me on the other hand, I came to speak with the professional sounding Mr. Marshall and ended up berated over not knowing how/having the stamina to do exercises Id never done before or hadnt done in months.I came to talk about puttin on muscle, this wasnt the place. He told me to pop in at 8, I was in the door at 8:02- first thing he does is say im late and have me sign a liability waiver.Homie need to learn how to talk to people. If you aint on his wavelength (wanna lose 50lbs and dont mind bein yelled at like youre in the army) dont waste your time or money.

I started Marshall Arts (kickboxing class) in mid January, my blood pressure glucose and cholesterol ect. numbers are great and also i have lost 33 pounds

These guys are the real deal and have amazing energy please come by

Ive been working with this brand for two weeks now and have lost 7 lbs. You just have to stick to the plan given, show up for class and listen to the owner!!!

This dude Marshall Thompson is the truth. I have been working with him for 6 years now off and on. I will not spend my money anywhere else. I have tried other places around jackson and have not gotten any results until I tried him. I lost a total of 28lbs. I listened to him and followed the diet he gave. If you want to change your outside and your mind frame. Please check him out.

Marshall is very positive, helpful and personal with your needs.

Umm is the a class with all girls cause Im not comfortable with boys all around

Awesome place to train and learn.

Im a life time martial artist and Marshall class was a great experience and I would recommend it for everyone.

True commitment and focus on the individual!

This is a great place to start you and your family experience with martial arts. You will meet one of the best instructors in the world.

Wow.. It would take me all day to tell you how Marshall Art Academy Bootcamp has changed my life. This Bootcamp not only transform your body, but also your mind. I have lost weight and kept it off. I am loving the new ME!! I would encourage anyone that is looking to make a life change to get in shape, tone your body, or lose weight to join this camp. The journey will not be easy, but worth it cause... Give it a week! I know you will not be disappointed!! He is doing what he is called to do.

Marshall is the best fitness motivator in the Jackson metro area. He works you physically and mentally. No one better if you need to drop weight and stay in shape.

Ive worked out a lot at home for years but this bootcamp makes me burn calories like no other! The instructor not only challenges and pushes your body but your mind as well. The results speak for themselves!

Today was my first day & it was awesome.! You guys should check this place out .!
