I trained at Ground Control last night and it was a fantastic experience. The I stress great. Rolling was awesome. My drilling partner was great to work with. The techniques were explained well and are effective. I highly recommend Ground Control.

Super welcoming gym with a really good culture and some straight up killers on the mat. Visited back home from the west coast and had a great time training here.

Staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Pricing is great. Good environment for kids and adults.

Great! Staff very friendly. Grandson loves it! Great for kids.

Amazing place to train and learn proper technique. Has a family feel to it and everyone is welcoming

Great place and great instructors. I love that here you dont have to worry about egos, just learning to gain knowledge about martial arts. Super affordable as well.

Great place to go and train. John and Todd are excellent instructors.

Amazing group of people and top notch instruction. So far I can only attest to the BJJ training but they have active wrestling, striking and MMA programs as well as kids classes. Having trained briefly at gyms across the country (and 4-5 years of regular classes in the PNW), I feel really lucky to have found a place like this in the Baltimore area. Whatever your goals or interests are, they can definitely meet your needs. My only regret is waiting so long to join since moving to MD.

AwesomeCoach Kramer

I was only able to make it to one mid day no-gi bjj class taught by John. The facility was huge (especially coming from a guy that trains in NYC), and a shower *was* available. The instruction was personal and detailed. I am still using the guard pass taught that day.

Very positive experience. I went here for my first time a few weeks ago and found the environment to be safe, fun and most importantly - geared towards learning. I just signed up for a yr membership and could not be happier. I definitely recommend this gym to anyone looking to break into MMA or BJJ.

Tried 7 day free trial only been 3 days feel like I’m at home staff and coaches are awesome all different type of characters didn’t witness no bullying nor prejudice good place for mma or anybody who suffers from ptsd needs help with coping skills

Fantastic family environment

Went to morning no-gi classes with coaches Tim and John and it was by far the best instruction Ive received out of the four bjj/mma gyms Ive been at. Great instruction, great coaching, fast progression

Signed up a year ago, made great friends learned a lot and can’t wait to learn more .

Beginners in BJJ should not be grappling with each other. Otherwise bruised ribs on the second BJJ class during the free 7 day trial might result. Staff who witnessed the incident should not be making excuses and projecting onto the injured party as if the other guy didnt know and it was the injured partys responibility to let the aggressive knucklehead know to go easy at 50%. Take responsibility for your school and your schools failure to properly include and initiate a beginner to safely train at your school. Beginners should not be grappling with each other. Do you already have so many students that you do not care about the safety of prospective students during the 7 day free trail period?

Loved the jiu jitsu class. Coach is on point

I trained at GC for about 2.5 years. I started off at Ground Control Columbia for about a year and then moved to Baltimore and attended this location. Both are fantastic with great instructors. The facilities and classes might be intimidating at first glance, but the people are friendly and amazing as long as you are eager to learn.The instructors and professors are totally legit, and you will absolutely get one-on-one treatment here. The BJJ is technical with lots of rolling and new drills and moves every day. The mixed classes allow you a chance to learn from higher belts as well as provide opportunities to show new members the ropes. This helps create a real sense of communal learning, and youd be surprised how much helping someone newer than you will help you with your own technique.The boxing instructor here, Russ Shiflett, is incredibly technically sound. Hes fantastic for beginners and advanced boxers alike. He has a thorough understanding of boxing techniques and will help you break down your movements like a science. My form improved drastically under Russ.They just got in a new Muay Thai instructor who I havent had a chance to learn too much from, but I feel that he is also a great source. He comes as an experienced fighter with many fights under his belt, and he definitely knows his stuff. I took a few classes with him before I quit the gym, and Im sad that I didnt have a chance to glean more from him before I had to leave.The only reason I left this gym is because I picked up a new job in New York. Im going to miss this place dearly. If you have any interest in MMA or BJJ at all, I highly recommend this gym. If youre on the fence, try the week-long free trial -- theres no pressure, and they wont take your CC info or anything. You just need to sign a waiver and come with good attitude.Try this place out!!! It changed my life, and it might change yours, too.

Very hard place but worth it.You want 2 work out they r ready for you.

How old can you be to join and are you still open
