I was in town for a month, I reached out via Facebook and got a response right away. Everyone was very welcoming and very kind. Very chill vibe, with great instructors. If you’re ever in or around Little Rock and enjoy MMA, I would highly recommend checking this place out.

Such an awesome place to train! The coaches create a super welcoming atmosphere, and the students are respectful and helpful. Whether you’re brand new or have years of experience, you’ll feel at home here. The mix of Judo and BJJ gives you the best of both worlds. Great people, great training.

Went in for our free week and folks were friendly and informative. We plan on coming back to get the kids trained up!

Great place to train. Welcoming environment, great people, high level instructors and awesome training partners. I initially started training here for the affiliation to Lovato Jr. and for Judo to supplement my BJJ but the level on instruction plus the gym being like one big family make it an easy choice of where to train if you are anywhere near Sherwood or Little Rock.

This place has quickly become my home away from home. The training environment is cultivating, inviting, and friendly. The coaches are knowledgeable, approachable, and passionate about all things combat related and have years of experience to back it. I highly recommend CCA to anyone looking to train Jiu Jitsu, Judo, Wrestling, or Kickboxing; beginners and prior practitioners alike are welcome, and we’re always happy to have you. Don’t be shy, stop by for your first week free, and get acquainted with the Combat Concepts Academy family. See you all on the mats soon 🤼♂️💪🏾
