Victory MMA in Arlington Heights is the place to be! Whether it is your first time training, or you are an experienced martial artist, this academy will accommodate your needs! Besides adult Striking and Grappling, the academy offers a next level kid's program! The head instructor, Sensei Alex, has a plethora of knowledge! His classes incorporate high level technique, that is taught at a level all ages can comprehend! Personally, Victory gave me the tools to grow and pursue my own MMA career! I have never been more comfortable stepping into a gym. At Victory, you will have the opportunity to PUSH past the mental and physical drain of the day, and walk out with your head held high, feeling accomplished! I recommend Victory MMA in Arlington Heights to all ages and to all skill levels!!!

Have been a student for over a month in the adult kick boxing and grappling classes. The instructors are talented martial artists and great teachers. The gym culture supports personal growth in discipline and performance and offers an inviting environment for people starting out, getting back into MMA, or looking for a new group to train with. The subscription packages they are offer have an option for everyone and are very reasonable in pricing. I recommend Victory MMA for all age groups, skill levels, and goals. Whether you want to train for the cage or just introduce physical activity and routine into your life, this is the gym for you.

This is by far one of the greatest MMA gyms around! It's not only great for the kids - but they offer fantastic kickboxing and grappling adult classes too! The attention span for kids can be short, which can be frustrating as a parent, especially when you're sitting on the side watching them not pay attention(and you've already invested the money into the class). This is NOT the case with Sensei Alex! He has an amazing talent to keep each and every student's attention throughout the entire class(even those kids who typically find it hard to focus or tend to hold back). I've never met someone who remembers every student's name from day one and highlights every student multiple times during class like they do at Victory. The mat chat is effective and the kids get it, the analogies are relatable for the kids and they really resonate. The adult classes are fantastic -- great for all skill levels! The group is supportive, encourages growth and development, and is a place to come if you're experienced or just getting started and want to learn. I could not say more about how great this place is!

Sensei is great with kids of all ages. He teaches valuable life lessons, helps them maintain focus, teaches respect, encourages good habits and much more! We're very happy with our 5 year old's classes here. We've seen him apply his MMA skillset when play wrestling with friends. Facility is clean and there is plenty of parking. Sensei is also very communicative!

Hands down the best investment for my kids development! Sensei Alex is a great teacher and mentor It’s help them be more confident, kinder, disciplined and humble people.

Great place for training! Classes focus on most practical aspects of mma. Classes fit for people with different skill levels. Coaches are helpful, friendly and pay attention to details. I strongly recommend Victory MMA for everyone. Taking a break for summer and coming back in Fall.

If I could give more stars, I 100% would! This dojo is the absolute best! My daughter has gained so much confidence and bravery just as a result of being in class. Not just the physical skills, but also mental skills from the awesome mat chats. Would HIGHLY recommend this to any person, young or old, male or female! Beyond 5 stars!

My son has been going to Victory MMA for over a year and we love it. My youngest son just joined also. Alex is awesome and so are all the other teachers. They are patient, understanding, and very professional.

Victory MMA and Sense Alex have been such a gift to our family. Sense provides a safe ad fun atmosphere for our child to not only learn how to keep herself strong and safe physically, but also mentally with the weekly mat chats. We can't wait until our other kiddos are old enough to join in on the fun! Highly recommend.

This gym and its fantastic sensei's is a must to anyone be it Man , woman , or kid looking to get into and or continue training. The sensei's all have spectacular technique and are very welcoming and knowledgeable!. They give life to their lessons and practicality and they ALL have passion for what and how they teach. The lessons build off each other and are taught well so even if you are completely green you can still come in , learn, get better ,and have fun!. Its a humble gym with honorable members so even if you do go against someone who may have more training you'll still learn and continue to grow and enjoy yourself! I would urge anyone looking for a hometown gym for either themselves or for their kids to try Victory! The kids classes are structured well and the adult classes will push you towards your best self. Victory might be the name but its also the feeling after each class!

Victory MMA has become a second home for me. The curriculum for adults class is top notch, the staff are friendly and supportive, and the students are always fun to train with.

Victory MMA is great gym for both kids and adults. They have very good curriculum/moves of the month, great instructors, convenient class times and a very positive welcoming atmosphere. They also have daily "mat chats" that are done after every class that focus on mental and emotional fortitude, which is very important which helps to completely develop the positive winning attitudes on the children. I am very happy with my children's improvements in their attitude, focus and their physical efforts. All thanks to this gym. And it's very well priced! I highly recommend victory MMA to all families.

not enough good words i can say about the place. i was a kid 10 years ago at the naperville location when Alex was still an assistant instructor and he still hasn't lost that ability to connect and teach kids, it's only gotten better over the years. and for the adult classes whether you're just looking to train for fitness, self defense or looking to train full time/for a fight victory has it all. everyone there is incredibly welcoming, and no one will ever make you feel out of place. it's one of the gyms that feel more like a community than a business when you're in there.

My son has been attending Victory MMA Academy for over a year and a half now. Sensei Alex is a great coach and leader. He has the focus and attention to address each student and their needs during each class and every move he teaches. Making sure they all are learning and not falling behind. Sensei Alex demonstrates full control and commands discipline over a large class of kids who all respect and listen to him. He is very passionate about his job, and it really shows in the kids who all seem to be equally passionate and excited to be there. The dojo is always clean and organized. My son has progresses well since he started. He looks forward to every class. Victory teaches the kids respect, self-discipline, and self-defense. I would recommend it to any parent looking for a way to better their children in a positive way that they can take with them the rest of their lives.

My boys love Victory Martial Arts! Sensei Alex is amazing he does awesome job with keeping the kids engaged throughout the entire class. I highly recommend joining Victory Martial Arts .

This place is awesome for kids to build confidence, exercise and to learn good life lessons and philosophy! The sensei Alex, is a great teacher and is wonderful with the kids. They even offer adult classes, and is extremely affordable. We love Victory MMA!!

My son has been coming here for a couple months and we couldn't be happier. They focus on boxing, kickboxing, wrestling and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. The instruction is fantastic and Coach Alex is incredible at not only teaching the kids but also preparing them for real life lessons. The daily mat chat also leaves the kids with something to think about as they depart for the day. It truly is the essence of martial arts. Great focus on skill, discipline, and just being an overall good person

Love this place!!!😊 This team is made up of hard working, disciplined, and FUN people. I really wanted to keep attending classes despite some pain i was feeling and Alex was able to accommodate my membership so I could still keep attending classes. They really value everyone as a team member. I love getting to learn martial arts with amazing people and just love being part of the Victory team🙌🏽

Signed up August 2022 for the free trial and have been going 3 times a week since. The coaches provide a great atmosphere for new and seasoned students and you're always challenged to give it your best. I leave each session completely exhausted but the feeling of kickboxing and grappling is so addictive keeps me coming back. This is a great place and I recommend it to anyone looking for a change from your typical gym experience.

Nice, clean and friendly neighborhood place for all ages. My 6 year old daughter had a lot of fun. They have two instructors most of the time and take care of each student individually as much as possible. Another great thing in Victory MMA is, they also focus on character education. At the end of each class students sit together learn the topic of that month. Overall they don't just teach Martial Arts but also how to be a better person. I highly recommend for all ages to start or continue their Martial Art journey at Victory MMA.
