High Altitude Martial Arts (HAMA) is hands down one of the best gyms I’ve ever trained at. The environment is professional, motivating, and welcoming at the same time. Wether you’re brand new or experienced, they really make sure you’re learning the right way and pushing yourself to improve. Huge shoutout to the coaches — Jake(both of them), Shae, Velour, Avery, Eric, and Joey. Every one of them brings something different to the table, and you can tell they genuinely care about your progress. They take the time to explain technique, correct mistakes, and actually help you get better instead of just running you through workouts. The culture here is solid — no ego, just hard work, respect, and people trying to improve. If you’re serious about martial arts, fitness, and becoming better mentally and physically, this is the place to be. Highly recommend HAMA to anyone looking for a real gym with real coaching. #Oss 🥋

My Daughter go's here she loves it so much she wants to go everyday. She has learned good skill to protect her self. As well as self discipline. She likes the couches and the staff. Everyone is friendly and helpful. And the price is very affordable. She is 15 and enjoys a safe place to learn jiu jitsu and striking.

The staff is super friendly, polite, and helpful, always ready to jump into conversation and help with any questions you may have. The instructors are friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, and are great teachers and coaches, always ready to work with you where you're at. They're also very experienced, as many are or were professional fighters themselves, so you get to learn from a firsthand source. The class schedule is super flexible, too, with classes offered six days a week, beginner and drop-in friendly. It's also always really clean, which I appreciate especially because of the high, dense traffic and how large the mats and cage are - there's plenty of space for everyone. But the community and environment here are truly the best. I learned so much in just the first lesson, and continue to learn lots with every class not only because of the instructors but because of the other students. They value safety and cooperation above all, emphasizing consideration for not only yourself but others around you to help you not only as a martial artist but as part of their community. The staff also frequently host seasonal community events outside of classes to bring everyone together. They represent excellence of the highest order, operating with respect, integrity, open and honest communication, and a highly enthusiastic and inclusive mindset, welcoming people of all cultures and backgrounds to train and learn together. The sports and community here have helped me mentally and physically so much, I truly don't know where I'd be without them. Whether you're looking to start or continue your martial arts journey, or are just passing through, you won't find a better place to grow than here.

There are levels to martial arts academies and High Altitude is just on another level. I have trained at a number of schools on the east coast and none offer what they do. Whether you are looking for a kids program, are a middle aged hobbyist like myself, an aspiring professional, or already a pro they got you covered. BJJ or striking, the coaches are not only great martial artists, but great at coaching others. The owner of the gym is a former professional fighter who now trains pro fighters, regularly jumps in to teach the youth classes. I can’t stress to my children enough how rare/special it is to learn from someone with a resume like that. The staff are helpful and polite regardless of what your rank is and that starts at the top. The facility is top notch and always clean. The martial arts community is special and High Altitude showcases all that is great about it. Really can’t say enough, so if you’re on the fence about it, get off of it and go check it out. Sean Morrison
