Reasons to join our Championship Team at Snake Pit U.S.A. Mixed Martial Arts Academy

What makes us unique? Why join our gym as opposed to the others? Here’s just a few reasons why…

1. We Are The Winningest MMA Team In The Area! Our Mixed Martial Arts team boasts an 87% win ratio and is one of the most active & Dominant MMA, Muay Thai & Submission Grappling teams on the East Coast! Frankly, we PROVE that what we teach works in the cage or ring against other Trained & Highly skilled Fighters with unrivaled success. With the current explosion of new MMA schools popping up in the area, we feel it necessary to let you know that not all MMA schools are created equal! Many traditional martial arts schools have decided to “ride the wave” of MMA’s popularity and simply call themselves an MMA school now. Buyers beware! We have plenty of respect for traditional martial arts like Karate and Kung Fu, but those arts are not Mixed Martial Arts! If an MMA school does not have an MMA team that competes regularly and wins, than perhaps the instruction isn’t at a high enough standard. Do your homework!

2. You can’t get more for your money anywhere. We are a “one stop shop” MMA academy with free nutrition counseling, conditioning classes and training in the most cutting edge methods available. Because we’ve been fortunate enough to have successful academies since 2000 –WELL before the boom in MMA’s popularity– we can afford to offer affordable rates. Smaller schools place more of a burden of their expenses on their smaller student body. Our first priority is not money. helping you reach your goals IS! This allows us to provide very competitive rates so you can get the most “bang” for your buck. In fact, you’ll pay more for one art (i.e. just Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu) at most schools than you will for our entire MMA package, which includes MMA, BJJ, Muay Thai, Boxing, Judo, Free Nutrition, Combat Fitness classes and more! No “nickel and diming here.” We want the value of our service to be way more than the cost of your membership. We have a “No Pressure” sales policy and will not engage in any “high pressure” sales tactics to get you to join our facility. We offer a wide variety of flexible membership options and our customer service is second to none. Simply put, people join because they love the programs! And if you decide our academy is not for you, that is fine with us as well of course.

3. We have the most highly trained and top quality staff and instructors in the area. We are the only school in the region with Champion instructors in each discipline that we teach!

4. We cater to everyone, not just competitors! Whether you want to be the next Ultimate Fighter or just train like one, we have a program for you. 90% of our members come to us as beginners with no intentions of competing in the martial arts. Our highly qualified and certified staff will gradually push you to your next martial arts milestone and to the next level of your training.

5. We promise you that you will be 10 times as effective in defending yourself after just 30 days of training at our academy! And, with that, you will have 10 times the confidence. We teach what works: battle-tested, proven techniques that are quick and easy to learn! These are the same techniques that our fighters use when they compete on live, primetime television.

6. We create home grown champions. 95% of our competition team started as beginners with us and are now fighting in the most elite Mixed Martial Arts shows that exist.  We also have high level BJJ instruction and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructors that are all under arguably the greatest Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Competitor and Coach of all time, 8th Degree Red/White Belt, Master Rigan Machado. On top of that our Muay Thai instructors are all ranked under the United World Muay Thai Association.

7. We stay on the cutting edge of the arts we teach. Our instructors are never complacent! We are constantly honing our skills to ensure Snake Pit U.S.A.

You will experience strength gains while your cardio goes through the roof! Yoga techniques and poses are a part of EVERY martial arts class during the warm-ups and cool downs at our academies. Many forget that flexibility training is an important aspect of fitness. We do not skimp on the flexibility training! Not only do we break you down, but we build you back up stronger. There is no need for a traditional gym or health club if you take full advantage of our programs.

10. We Offer an honest, no strings attached, no paperwork to fill out entire week absolutely free. Unlike other schools that claim to offer “free trials” only to have you fill about a bunch of financial documentation in order to “qualify.” 

11. Everyone is treated like extended family here and bonds are formed that last a lifetime. Our friendly environment is comforting and becomes a large part of many of our member’s social lives.

12. Receive free online video techniques demonstrated by our Head Coach to help supplement your training when you are not at the academy. This allows you to continue your martial arts education even when you are out of town on business or on vacation.

13. The Training Is Fun! Let’s face it, at the end of the day, if you are not having fun with your training, why train? Boredom derails 99% of the people who try to work out on their own. One of the reasons you will end up shedding pounds and getting toned is because it does not “seem” like a workout. You’ll be having so much fun training, that there will be times you’ll forget your even working out! Our instructors are certified and qualified to teach enjoyable, productive and progressive classes.
