Apex Martial Arts Center

A great place to learn martial arts, have fun or just want to get a good workout. All instructors are approachable and friendly you would definitely learn a lot in no time. No pressure just come what day you want. 👍👍👍 …

My sons and I have been going to Apex for a few months, love the place! If you’re a newbie or advanced Apex is the place to be. Don and his crew of coaches are just a great group of guys. Just do it ! You won’t be disappointed.

My 11 year old is truly enjoying kickboxing. He looks forward to each class. The trainers are great, supportive, fun. He is learning a lot already in the short time he's been training here.

Forget the other gyms in NC. Check this place out. I personally have to say this place is my favorite & the longest time ive been training at any particular gym. I mostly do kickboxing here but they teach jiu jitsu & kick boxing. Sometimes the team goes out to do tournaments. We have AWESOME knowledgeable & experienced coaches. They are detailed with the techniques they show & they are passionate about it too! Also you dont have to do a contract with them & thry dont give you a salesmen spiel about anything either.... Like other gyms. I want to mention a few but i just keep it light right now. The atmosphere is solid & so is the set up- its a genuine gym with a GREAT team. I've been here for over a year now. I can't really describe my enthusiasm you just have to check it out yourself!

TLDR: Amazing School, Great Price, Excellent Coaches and staff , Focused on students not profit.I can not say enough about how much my family and I love this place.When we were looking for a place to take our girls (ages 9 & 11) we searched for what seemed like forever. We looked into all the traditional types of place karate , taekwondo, and many others.We don't have a lot of extra money and many of these places required you buy the uniforms from them and that you sign a contract for a certain length of time, plus belt testing fees and other various charges. That and the average price was over $100 per student per month.COST/VALUE :At Apex Martial Arts Center they have multiple family plans. We have two kids so we pay $175.00 a month. For BOTH, not each, but for both. That is significantly less than any other place we found. Also with that membership our girls can attend any class. Not just the jiu-jitsu class but also the kick boxing classes. They could essentially go there 7 days a week for $175.00 a month.They are completely different from any other school in the area. They don't require a contract. If things get tough and you can't afford it that month just let them know and they'll put your membership on hold until you can afford it again. When you're ready to come back you just tell them and they'll begin billing you again.They also don't care where you get your equipment from. If you want to buy from them great but if not that's fine too. There aren't any belt testing fees or other random charges.STAFF/CLASSESThe main coach for the kids is coach Matt, and there are two other coaches that help as well. He is an amazing teacher. He is very thorough in explaining what they'll be learning that day. Then when they pair up to practice the coaches are constantly moving around checking on the kids giving advice, helping to correct their technique.He also places a huge emphasis on being a good partner. In every class he talks about having respect for your partner and being safe. Another great thing is that the kids that are more experienced will help the newer students when they are practicing. They'll guide them through the move as they work together "now move your hand here, place your knee there" things of that nature.SUMMARY:We love Apex Martial Arts Center. We've only been taking the girls about two months now and we really feel like family there. Coach Matt is amazing. Anytime we've had an issue or a question he takes the time to speak with us and we don't feel like we're being a bother. Just try it out. Take a free class. Talk to coach Matt. Stop by and watch. It really is an amazing place.

Very welcoming atmosphere and all around fun place to train. From my experience thus far, all of the instructors take time to explain things in detail, with a nice mix of drilling and rolling. Also, very easy to deal with on the administrative side of things - no contracts and always willing to work with people if their schedules change.

My family is excited to have discovered this great martial arts gym in Apex! The staff are friendly and respectful to students. They keep classes fun too. My daughter has increased self confidence and a real excitement for kickboxing that I have not seen with her involvement in other sports! I feel like she is learning essential skills to last a lifetime.

I have been training Bjj and kick boxing at Opengard For 8 months now and I just have great things to say about the gym. It has a great atmosphere and every one there is willing to help. I started classes thinking I was too old for that, but was never treated as if was not supposed to be there. If you want to learn some self defense, have fun, and make new friends, this is the place for you.

An excellent school with awesome instructors and great people to train with. There's a variety of skill levels, ages, men and women. Wayne and Geoff are top notch Brazilian Jiu Jitsu instructors who have both the experience and aptitude for teaching. I cannot say enough great things about AMAC.

Apex martial arts center has the perfect program for kids. They teach a non traditional approach to self defense with an emphasis on reality that incorporates many different disciplines. That being said, there is also a heavy emphasis on character development that is often found in more traditional schools. This place is the best of both worlds. As a veteran martial artist, I was very selective when I went looking for a place to trust with the training of my son. I would highly recommend Apex Martial Arts Center to anyone looking for a great self defense program that prepares kids for real life scenarios while holding true to traditional values.
