My son absolutely loves coming to practice and learning kick boxing!
This is a fantastic place. I am learning a lot of skills along with the boxing that I already knew. Ali recommend for adults and children
A great place to train, everyone was extremely kind.
Dark Horse is the best! The people are wonderful, and they made me feel very welcome as a new person. The training is well worth the money.
At 42 years old I have not trained in martial arts or combat sports since my 20s. It’s something I’ve always wanted to get back to. I met Joshua at a Business Association meeting we are both part of in College Hill. I made the decision to check out his school and am very glad I did. I would suggest to anyone wanting to try their hand at martial arts to give Mission MMA Cincinnati a try!
High quality instruction! I’ve been to several gyms over the years, and this place feels like home. Joshua pushes you, which is what I think you want in a coach.
The best place to learn Muay Thai!
Coach Joshua is the best! He really likes to teach us! I feel great learning this beautiful martial art!
We all are fortunate to have Mission MMA Cincinnati in our community led by Joshua’s leadership. His passion for martial arts is contagious and has an inviting gravity that pulls you in.
I’m grateful he has decided to share his years of hard work in martial arts, his joy of everyone working to pursue excellence, and support on and off the mats.
In looking for a place for my boys to learn the arts of Jujitsu my husband found Mission MMA Cincinnati. Coach Joshua has been an excellent coach! My boys love taking what they have learned on the mat and bringing it home to teach me. Highly recommend anyone looking for a great atmosphere for kids to learn Jujitsu take from Coach Joshua!
Coach Joshua has created is a unique and incredible school to train and develop.
If you are considering joining a club- would highly encourage you to explore DH!
I am in my late 40s with minimal training before starting. I was welcomed as a part of the group immediately and it has had a powerful influence on the rest of my life to start eating better and lifting more.
I am in better shape now vs when I was in my 30s.
thanks to the team and coach for creating such a wonderful atmosphere to want to train in!
The instructor came across as very knowledgeable. Having some prior lessons in Muay Thai I was looking to get back in after a break. I went to several locations around Cincinnati area to find the right place for me. After my first class, I was so impressed I signed up immediately. I look forward to the many months to come and can not wait to start training again 😁
