The Viking Academy | Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Muay Thai MMA

Outstanding facility with even more outstanding instructors. There's no better way to learn what you are made of than through the martial arts, and this place has every tool that you'll need for your journey.

The best instructor!!!! Great group of Bjj practitioners that push each other at all times!!! Clean and friendly environment!! Love coming here everyday

There really isn’t a better deal out there. Great instruction by talented instructors who take the time to really make sure you understand. You’ll see improvements after every session. And you also get an amazing strength gym included. This is a place you have to check out.

I’ve trained at many different academys and many different instructors and without a doubt Steven Williams is at another level. If your looking for real old school Jiu Jitsu and learn how to defend yourself and fight this is the place for you, if you want to sit guard and roll on around on your back go elsewhere.

This is the best gym in the area! I've sweat off a few burgers just from one class. The instructors are knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Not only do you get to do the classes when you sign up but you also get access to the entire gym, Moutn Vernon Barbell. Can't beat that deal!

Viking Academy is one of the best things to happen to Westchester. Located inconveniently near two metro north lines(mount Vernon east/west) which makes the commute easy on someone like me who commute from the Stamford ct! Great instructors, and convenient class schedule if you’re like me someone who works a 9/5.

I had never taken any kind of martial arts class before but decided to when Mount Vernon barbell decided to be the home to the one and only Viking academy ! I am pleased to say that I couldn’t be happier with my decision. All the coaches are amazing. They work with all levels of experience and help guide you in each class, in the beginning you work through warm ups and some basics of MMA and jiu jitsu. And with each class you grow and that's where you get hooked. The classes are a perfect size so that if you have a question or unsure If you are not doing it right; you don’t have to be afraid to ask. If you are thinking at all about MMA, jiu jitsu, kickboxing or just getting in shape, head to Viking Acadmey ! You won’t be disappointed!

If I could give Vikings Academy 100 stars I will. That’s how good and much I appreciate everything that have learned from both of these great instructors Steve and Larry.The knowledge and art that these instructors have made and continue to develop is simply amazing. Once you try this gym you wouldn’t search for no where else. The camaraderie that is established is like no other, you don’t have only great instructors but training partners as well.

I've been training at the Viking academy for a month and I'm obsessed! 💯 Steven and Larry are excellent instructors with a lot of valuable knowledge! Definitely recommend to everyone, especially if you want to learn a variety of martial arts to defend yourself and gain a lot of strength. Get the monthly membership and even get access to Mount Vernon Barbell. Can't beat it with a bat!
