Amazing academy! My two close friends spencey steadman and shawty ullmann actually founded this academy for betas like themselves. I graduated from alpha academy, but decided to take brief trip here to see what it was like to be a beta. I didn’t like being a beta, but my experience at their academy was great! Being an alpha, such as myself and Leo Shoval (the Jew), is a much better experience though.

Awesome! I joined amidst the pandemic and they have been great about creating a space for safety, learning, fitness, and martial arts. Definitely have enjoyed the various instruction styles and the ways I can build on technique in each class. They also have so many training times available that work with my schedule.

Beta academy is great. Staff is welcoming and friendly. I got a great workout in the Muay Thai intro class and would have 100% signed up except that I just live too far away for it to make sense.

This place is great. The instructors are so approachable and break down the instruction so it's easy to follow. Great for beginners or experienced grapplers. I travel a lot for work and this place was a great place to roll.

Best place to train BJJ/Muay Thai in the city. Training martial arts can be intimidating but Beta Academy works hard to convey a welcome and inclusive vibe. Broadly, this is a clean facility with supportive coaches and a robust training …

My son has attended Beta Academy's summer camp and aftercare. At first, he was a bit nervous as he has never done any martial arts programming. But, after just a day of starting with Beta, he absolutely loves it! Beta truly cares about each child, as an individual. I don't feel my son is a number as the staff at Beta checks on my son, provides mentoring and homework hel for the aftercare. My son looks forward to attending Beta!!!

A top notch muay thai, bjj, and MMA gym. The staff truly make you feel like family, and the community as a whole is unmatched in comparison to other gyms I've trained at. So glad to have found BETA!

Hard workouts, experienced instructors, and smart accommodations in dealing with Covid-19. For your money or experience level, you can't do better than this. Speaking as an absolute beginner whose Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes had other beginners and trained fighters.
