Been going to hicks MMA for almost a year and my child loves it. He ask me just about everyday if he trains tonight. We train 3 days a week. And enjoys every minute of it. Gavin and hicks corrects the kids when they do a move wrong. They make sure they are doing the moves the right way. And if a kid doesn’t understand they will work one on one for a few minutes to make sure they get it will have them train with their partner and watch and coach them through it. Would highly recommend this place.

My nephew attends HicksMMA and I’ve seen him grow and gain confidence in the time he’s been attending. You can tell the coaches know their stuff and ensure the kids do as well, especially during tournaments. Would recommend to any parent!

This isn't a place where you just learn boxing and/or brazilian jiu jitsu. This is a place where you are among family. From day 1, the coach and all the other students treated me with respect and encouraged me to learn. Even after messing up, they would be patient and help me. I have gotten way stronger, developed decent skills, and have been the most fit I ever have been in my life. On top of that, the coach doesn't just teach the techniques. He explains why and how the techniques work. If anyone is looking for a boxing/Brazilian jiu jitsu gym, I strongly encourage you to come here :)

Coaches are amazing and truly care about the kids and their development. The gym is a family and you always feel welcome by everyone. You will not be disappointed by joining the HicksMMA family.

My son has been training BJJ with Coach Hicks for about a year and a half now. The dedication and commitment that all the coaches show is unmatched. Great environment, clean, and extremely welcoming. So glad to be apart of the Hicks family.

It's been over a year that our son started his jiu-jitsu journey with Coach Hicks and we are so happy he did! Not only was he welcomed with open arms, but we were as well. The gym provides a family environment that promotes encouragement and growth from all levels. Coach Hicks and other staff members are extremely knowledgeable and truly care about each person's development and success. The gym is always very clean and well maintained also!

I've been training here a little over 2 years. I had no previous martial arts training at all. Coach Hicks, with the help of other advanced coaches and students, really helped me develop not only a passion for the sport, but a level of physical fitness and mental strength I would not have otherwise been able to attain. I was slightly apprehensive at first joining a gym with not many other female members. Everyone in the gym is courteous and keeps the training centered around jiu-jitsu or boxing. I've never felt uncomfortable in any way. I would recommend Hicks MMA to anyone who wants a fun, alternative way to get in shape while also learning helpful life skills.

From the start not only was our daughter welcomed immediately but our entire family was welcomed by all members of the gym, especially by staff. We became apart of the Hick’s jiu-jitsu family very quickly and never looked back! The gym provides a family environment that promotes a level of growth. Coach is extremely knowledgeable and knows his stuff! He has instilled in everyone to make each other better every day. Respect is big and I LOVE THAT! Coach will push you and you are surrounded by encouragement from all levels no matter what level you are at. Gym is always very clean and mats are well sanitized. You will not regret looking into the gym and giving it a try with the FREE trial class they offer..

I have been going to Hicks MMA for eight months and I couldn't be happier. When I started with Coach Hicks, I was four months post partum and had 15lbs that I could not shake. With careful monitoring from Coach Hicks, I have lost the weight, gotten stronger, and I'm in better shape than before I had my baby, all while improving on my BJJ journey and becoming part of an MMA family. I have gone to different gyms around the Carrollton area to train (in boxing and BJJ) and not one measures up to Hicks MMA for the level of skill and professionalism you will experience.

I love Hick MMA! Having been to other gyms and marital schools, I can definitely say with all certainty that Coach Hick is one of the best trainers. His knowledge is world-class, the school is professional, friendly and the motivation transcends just physical fitness but helps in all areas of life! Come join this incredible family. You wouldn't be disappointed!

Great school amazing instructors the offer martial arts classes for kids, teens, women, and adults. Very well known martial arts school in Carrollton.

I liked how well Coach Hicks and his team works with my grandsons in their boxing class that I decided to join his adult boxing class! Good stuff

We've been coming here for about 7 months. In that time, my son has turned into a very respectful young man. Professor Hicks is incredibly talented and very patient with his students. Coach Gavin is great with my boy and his class. I am so proud of how hard my son has been working, and I am so thankful he asked us to sign him up for Jujitsu. 10/10 cannot recommend this place enough.

Hicks MMA offers so many Mama classes and the instructors are great! You can just tell that they care so much about what they are teaching you.

We love Hicks, our son just turned 5 and has been taking classes for a yr. now. Coach Gavin, has an incredible amount of patience and has given our son great leadership advice that has transpired in his everyday life. Being around like minded parents that want nothing more than to see their children succeed is a definite plus. Coach Hicks, has provided a great space for any child to thrive and build not only technical skills but a strong foundation. Couldn’t recommend Hicks MMA more, truly!

You will not be disappointed by joining Hicks. Coaches are knowledgeable and care about everyone and their development. The kids love going and you can see the improvement with each class

My 6 year old son has been training BJJ and boxing at Hicks MMA for a year now. We have seen an astronomical increase in his self confidence that began within a month of of training. He is much more respectful of others and his overall attitude has drastically improved. Coach Gavin and Coach Hicks are simply amazing with the kids! Their instruction is much more than just martial arts; they make our kids better human beings and we have been treated like family since day one. If you’re looking for a gym for yourself or your child to train martial arts, look no further than Hicks MMA. The culture, cleanliness, inclusiveness, and knowledge of the sport is absolutely top tier.

Hicks is the best place to get started at if you’re looking for BJJ/Boxing/Self defense! I was afraid of coming in and being behind but that wasn’t the case. Coach will help you out with the basics and so will your teammates to get you started in the right direction. Best decision I’ve made was joint Hicks!

I'm a 29 y/o adult who has been coming here for about 5 months now for the adults boxing class. I came as a person with almost no experience with working out or doing any kind of sport, all knowledge I knew about boxing came from anime. The staff, coaches, and fellow students have all been very welcoming and understanding, which was very appreciative for me as a person with anxiety. I signed up for classes with the goal of being healthier and getting in shape but also to develop self-discipline, which I can gladly say is working out so far! I've lost noticeable weight, I'm building muscle, I'm coming to classes regularly, I'm learning new ways to be healthier, and I'm having fun while doing it! Special shout out to Coach Gavin, he's an absolute blast of an instructor. Professor Hicks tells us that what we get out of training is what we put in. If you're looking for a friendly, yet hard-working place then this is the spot for you!

My son has been attending for over a month and I have seen such an improvement in his attitude and confidence! He looks forward to every class and the coaches pay attention to where his strengths and weaknesses are and are constantly helping him improve. We love Hicks MMA!!!
