My boyfriend and I joined Fight Den with zero experience. We've left Every. Single. Session. PUMPED! Sensei Mike is a phenomenal teacher. He is super encouraging, breaks everything down into simple steps (needed for a newbie like me!) and has given me so much confidence. Plus, everyone at the Den is so friendly and collaborative. Try it out, see for yourself!!

After trying several other schools of martial arts, I can confidently say that Sensei Mike has a much more practical approach to MMA. He has a good balance between jiu jitsu, boxing and kickboxing. He is very straightforward and there is absolutely no nonsense. No time and energy is wasted on unnecessary moves or techniques. Everything is to the point and practical. I took his 10 session private lessons and feel it was a great investment. I highly recommend Sensei Mike to anyone who wants to seriously improve their skills.

Phenomenal!! Me and my girlfriend joined Fight Den with zero experience and a lot of nerves. Sensi Mike is incredible with rookies, he eased us into it at our own pace and is always on hand to help you pick up on the small details. The gym culture is incredible, everyone is there to have fun and learn. Couldn't recommend it more.

Highly recommend the private lesson course, Sensei Mike is hilarious and is really intelligent with his technique, fascinating to practice japanese joy jitsu and submission grappling plus krav to boot 😎

Sensei Mike at Fight Den has been so great to our boys. Fight Den has really helped them get comfortable with learning MMA and building confidence in themselves. The boys always look forward to the classes because there is always something new to learn and it’s always a great experience.

If you wanna learn great techniques from a wizard that quick n effective submission grappling you gotta come here says a trained mma fighter/muay thai instructor. Check out sensei Mike has steered me wrong yet.

Learned a lot and appreciate Sensei Mike’s enthusiasm and help with different techniques!

Super expensive private lesson, but the best money I have ever spent. No one will beat Sensei Mike

Started private lessons with Sansei Mike and what a great experience. Paced well, friendly, some mixed in humour but mostl of all lots of encouragement!

After fighting and training at Fight Den for a few months not only did I become a better fighter but I learned so much about the MMA culture that other schools won’t teach! I learned how to become more confident and samurai in myself after taking a few classes. If you’re looking to become a badass or to learn how to protect yourself Sensei Mike is the best decision you’ll ever make!!

After taking only a few group classes (Krav Maga/Jiu Jitsu/MMA) with Sensei Mike for the purposes of self-defence, I've never felt safer in my life. The classes are also a lot of fun! I absolutely highly recommend.

I've been training with Mike since 2007. His extensive knowledge base is always impressive, but his key assets as an instructor lie in his patience and sense of humour. Mike has fostered a learning environment that is supportive, fun, and disciplined. His classes have a mix of varying experience levels so the younger students gain confidence learning with older students. They have a good set up here. Lastly, I didn't really go into it but his technique understanding is next level, I think there's a video on the fb page of Mike rolling with Dan Henderson. Check him out, he knows his stuff.

Had an amazing first class! Sensei Mike was very patient with me, which was greatly appreciated. Peers were super welcoming and quick to help out and teach as well. The environment is very friendly and safe. I've never participated in anything like this, and I havent worked out in years so it was definitely an experience. But if you're interested in a great work out while learning to defend yourself this is the place to go. I'll definitely be going back!

Sensei Mike is not only the best sensei in all of canada, he is the top gun and knife defence specialist in the world, at fight den you are treated as family and given a very enjoyable experience while learning the mixed martial arts at an accelerated rate due to his teachings. - Ethan

Had the best experience with sensei mike! He taught me how to fight and wrestle and defend myself. It was also such a fun class and I learnt so much in just an hour. Definitely recommend taking it if your thinking about it.

Sensei Mike is a very great teacher. I’ve learned a lot from him very quickly. The energy he brings to every class is unmatched by any other coach I’ve had in any of the other sports I’ve taken part in. I’ve seen first hand the things he’s taught me work and help me get better at jujitsu and mma

Mike is very professional and taught me useful self defence skills that actually work. His classes are great value and gave me a lot more confidence. Def recommend his ten class private course. Great workout too, definitely satisfied.
