Fantastic experience: Fantastic team, great learning experience, learnt alot from Rhys, the jiu-jitsu black belt.
Fantastic experience: I have been training with NP MMA for about 4 months. I am 46 years old, have very little prior martial arts experience, and my level of fitness could definitely be better. From my very first training session I have always been made feel welcome, wanted, understood and safe at NP MMA. The coaches are all extraordinary. Their level of proficiency is remarkable, and their ability to coach is outstanding. The coaches push you to push yourself, I feel I achieve progress from every session. Training with NP MMA has benefitted my fitness, my mental health, my martial arts skills and my friendships. If you have even the slightest interest in checking out the gym, having a go, or training in any of the classes, I strongly encourage you to come in and try out a class. At the very least, you'll meet some cool people, and potentially it could be an incredibly positive life changing step. Do it. See you on the mat. Ryan.

Fantastic experience: New Plymouth MMA Studio - so much more than just an awesome gym - all the instructors are highly knowledgeable and experienced, there are a range of martial arts classes including Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, wrestling and MMA. Facilities are outstanding, clothing and equipment is available to purchase. In addition, the culture of this gym is absolutely outstanding - it's like a family. Never experienced such a good vibe! If you want to learn a martial art and get super fit in the process then give these guys a call!!!!
Fantastic experience: NPMMA know what’s up! Super friendly and chill as environment; but equally important they are super knowledgeable when it comes to all things Jiu-Jitsu/MMA. Highly recommended if you live in the area or just visiting.
Fantastic experience: A space that is well ahead of it’s time and Jesse and his team of instructors/teachers have some of the greatest knowledge to be shared with it’s students. A fun, energising safe and friendly environment, there aren’t enough superlatives to describe how good this place is in taranaki. Keep it up team!!!
Fantastic experience: Awesome time with the crew today
Fantastic experience: Today I attended a women’s self defence class at New Plymouth MMA. I was pretty uncertain about coming along to this as I was worried it would be a bit too “hands on” (and I am very protective of my personal space) but our head coach, Rhys, made me feel super comfortable and safe. I learned a LOT and had a great time. Rhys’s way of explaining things was very clear and relatable to real life which I found super insightful and useful. I feel like this could help a lot of women gain more confidence while moving through the word. If you’re thinking about trying it out but an MMA gym sounds a little scary. It’s not. Give it a try. Assistant coach Lee-Anne will also make you feel right at home. What a great place for women to learn self defence and build confidence. 5 stars from me. Will certainly be back again next time
