Eric is very good with the kids. My son John loves going there every Monday and Friday. He loves the games at the end.

No better place to build community and take control of your health. You won't find a better instructor than Eric!

My kids just started taking classes here and they love it. The instructor is patient with them and explains everything throughly for the kids.

There's so many positive things to say about Altruist MMA. My kids have been going 1-3 times a week for the last year and a half. A little background on how and why we got started will highlight why Altruist is such a great place to take your kids. I called Kumu Eric hoping to find something my daughter could do to build her confidence and help her feel included. She had been struggling with the move from a recreational soccer team to a competitive one. Kumu Eric spent time talking to me about her and invited us in for a class. It took a little time, but she settled in and started to excell in the training. Always Kumu Eric gave encouragement while still keeping a learning environment. I could see she was beginning to feel part of something important without having to be anybody but herself. She got stronger, faster, and more coordinated. More focused and purposeful. She made friends with all different kinds of kids. Her confidence grew and it made a difference in all areas of her life. She is playing soccer again at a high level and she is excelling now, both in soccer and MMA. My son who is almost 8 also goes. He is a completely different personality than my daughter, yet he loves Altruist MMA just as much. He loves the hard work and the games they play. He is getting stronger and more coordinated. Mentally, he likes making decisions on what move to use and when to use it.I appreciate the quality of instruction, the caring nature of the instructors, and the fun family environment we get every time we come to class. Kumu Eric and his team are the BEST! I highly recommend Altruist MMA.

This place is amazing. The staff/instructors are seriously awesome. They truly care for everyone that comes in. It’s definitely a family vibe here and everyone is welcoming. My boys have been coming for almost a year now and they love it. We plan on sticking with it the pit 702 for as long as we can

My home away from home. Includes a halarious Pit Ohana, great work outs, and a overall good vibe that fosters personal growth. I started in no shape at all, got into the best shape of my life and achieved goals I didn’t know I had. Then …

Let me start with I didnt like the Idea of my babies doing MMA classes, because I was skeptical. But I knew they needed to learn selfdefence to protect themselves in this modern world. They tried out a class and they really liked it. Now …

I wish I could describe what an amazing place The Pit 702 is in our community. Eric was so responsive and helpful for my son's birthday party. He provided an outstanding lesson with mixed martial arts techniques and allowed the kids to also enjoy fun and games. He was attentive to protect the children and ensured safety for everyone. The parents enjoyed watching their children have fun and several said it was an amazing way to celebrate the birthday. The kids listened to the instructions and were very dedicated to learning the techniques. I love the competitive drills but the good sportsmanship followed. We were able to bring pizza, snacks and cake. This is a true hidden gem in Henderson and if I did not want to help support the business I would be hesitant to share this amazing best kept secret. Bounce houses can be fun for kids, but I worry about the safety of my children and also there is not much excitement for the parents. Eric and The Pit 702 gave us everything we wanted for our son's birthday party. It was perfect!

I absolutely love this place. I got my 7 year old son into classes and tried the adult classes after seeing how much fun they have. Never a boring workout and everyone really is like family. The students and instructors are so down to earth and everyone is friendly and helpful. And it's helped my son deal with bullying by teaching him life skills and self defense. It's been a great way for us to do things together. Highly recommend 😊

This place is awesome! It has been great for my son, who is currently in the PeeWee program. He has learned so much and made good friends as well. They also have an awesome adult program with a lot of fun & challenging workouts. It's nice to have my whole family a part of this program. Kumu Eric is a great instructor and teaches the kids important lessons beyond fighting skills. The other instructors are all equally helpful and lead some fun classes. They have special kid events that happily exhaust my son. Overall, it has a family atmosphere that my whole family appreciates.
