Excellent staff, great with kids and adults alike. Very early on in the pandemic, they developed a number strong safety measures, including Zoom classes, as well as a high-quality filter system and rigorous cleaning in their studio, as well as excellent hygiene and masking protocols. They keep their people safe while maintaining continuity in teaching. Theyve had no community spread, yay BIMA!

Great classes. Great rolls.

I recommend this school for anyone seeking a strong, effective, well-rounded foundation in self-defense. In addition to offering an array of martial arts styles that have each stood the test of time, this school has a safe, welcoming atmosphere. These factors are the signs of a truly good martial arts school. Its vital to train in conditions that grant real martial ability, yet equally vital to develop a calm frame of mind that remains centered. My experience at Bernales Institute of Martial Arts today showed me that this school is very much worth training in, even if you live a good distance away.

This is the best MMA gym in salt lake county. Ive gone to literally all the good ones & none compare to Bernales Institute.Ive even gone to spar/roll with ppl at other MMA gyms & won. They were surprised how good I was in the amount of time Ive been doing this & I believe its because of this gym.Besides the training aspect, the environment & love the trainers & students share is amazing. Its literally like were all a bunch of friends training together.Will the main instructor is the best in ANY gym in ANY martial arts. Front desk & other instructors are amazing as well

Bernales Institute is an awesome gym to learn martial arts. The instructors are extremely patient, friendly and talented. The other students offer helpful insights to help improve technique and the environment is very comfortable even for beginners. I feel no judgement from advanced students either which I was always worried about. Instead they show a sincere desire to help me improve. Would definitely recommend to anybody interested in learning martial arts.

Beyond amazing! This is by far the best martial arts school in Utah. One of my fellow classmates literally drives 232 miles one way to attend this school. That is how above the rest this school is. There are no overly aggressive fighters here, and there is a sense of brotherhood and friendship. Everyone is extremely friendly and approachable. The learning atmosphere is also very safe. I am learning faster here than I have at any other school. Absolutely 100% worth it.

Great Place! Recommended!

Loved my experience with this gym! I so wish I lived closer so that I could continue to go. But I cant. The instructors know their stuff and the atmosphere is inviting, friendly, and motivational.

We love Will and all of the other instructors. They love what they do and genuinely care about each student in the class. BIMA has a great atmosphere - positive, encouraging, and respectful. My son has learned so much by attending for the past 2 1/2 years - in addition to martial arts techniques, he is learning character, discipline, confidence, and hard work. He looks forward to every class and we are so happy he has the chance to attend!

Great place to learn multiple arts with awesome instructors.. I would recommend Bernales institute to anyone.

We love Bernales Institute for our 11 yearold daughters MMA class. Will is a wonderful instructor and you can tell he loves what he does! I would recommend BIMA to children and adults alike for a great martial arts experience!
