The Mount BJJ & MMA - Ijamsville/Urbana

Great establishment. The environment here helps drive you forwards in becoming more capable and healthy. Class structure is very friendly to beginners, and the folks here help you get and stay on the path.

Lots of high marks here, but I'll try and keep it as short as possible: Staff - Jim, Amed, Laura, Judo Mike... All great instructors with proven track records and most importantly good people. Very welcoming and great balance of nurturing and discipline for our boys which we appreciate! Facilities - We've been to both the Mt. Airy and Urbana location, both spotless and very well maintained. All the training tools and equipment are commercial/professional grade, not stuff you find on Alibaba site. Students - All the other kids in the classes are very friendly and well mannered. Most importantly I see all the kids and our boys having fun every class! Training - Our boys attend the MMA and the BJJ classes and open mat on Saturday’s if time permits. They've enjoyed being in all the classes, learning new moves/self defense techniques and even practice on each other at home. What I like about Mount is that there is a SME for each craft they teach in MMA. Just the last thing I want to mention is a thank you to the staff for doing such a great job with all the kids and our boys!!!

I found The Mount during a tough time for my kids. It is a welcoming and accepting place for all personalities, body types and genders. The Mount is not only training kids physically, but teaching acceptance and camaraderie during a time when bullying is being ignored or normalized in other sports communities. My kids feel confident and happy every time they leave the gym. It’s awesome!

The Mount is an excellent place to learn a variety of martial arts and self-defense techniques, including Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, MMA, and Judo. The coaches and masters are highly skilled and experienced, and they always deliver lessons with care and clarity. Conveniently located in both Urbana and Mt. Airy, they offer unlimited access to either location without any additional fees. They also provide women's self-defense classes, which I believe are incredibly valuable. My 13-year-old son has been training here for over a year and has developed impressive skills along with a strong sense of confidence in his self-defense abilities. I highly recommend The Mount without hesitation

The Mount gives my daughter and I a place to train, bond, and build a fun strong relationship. We have developed many great friendships with the families at The Mount. The coaches are more than qualified and very knowledgeable about jiujitsu, judo, mma, and wrestling! I have watched the kids develop pretty much from day 1 and can’t believe how fast they have improved. Many kids have won tournaments with only 3 months of training under their belt. I 100% recommend The Mount for anyone and their families looking to bond and get in shape or be competitive and compete. It’s our family’s favorite place to spend our free time!
