Westside Mixed Martial Arts - Martial arts school in Little Rock - 806 S Izard St, USA

I've been a part of 5-6 different martial arts communities over the last 15 years... This place is by far the best! Amazing coaches with lots of real world experience, great facility, and great culture among gym members.

I love training here. Down 50lbs since I started and my cardio has never been better. Coach Matt and Coach Boris know what they're doing and don't accept excuses. This place will get you addicted.

I have been in The martial arts circuit for years and can attest that Westside is a State of the art facility! The Instructors are fantastic and the environment is very welcoming. Weather you a seasoned grappler or just looking to start, I would highly recommend Westside.

Cool staff and clean gym. Not very forgiving for the outside visitors. Came from California and I came in on the red eye. I got to class late as expected from someone who was just getting out of the airport and they wouldn't let me in. I'm not one to complain but I am a visitor, not a regular who lives here. Just missed out on some good rolls with some good people. Again I know the rules of any training space, but I would've paid it in burpees. I'm working on a couple hours of sleep here 😮‍💨

Professor Roli and Professor Ataide are very welcoming of traveling BJJ players. They provide quality instruction and they have created an amazing training environment. Rolls are competitive both in the Gi and NoGi. All of their students are kind and respectful, and are willing to play with everyone. They have provided me a home away from home when I travel to the Little Rock area for work and I am truly grateful to them for doing so. If you’re looking for a great place to learn and grow in the fighting arts, you’ve found a gem. Truly! My best to the Westside team! Thank you for everything!

I was visiting family in Little Rock and decided to drop in for a BJJ class. I train at a different gym in a different state. Every single person introduced themselves to me and made me feel so welcome. Instruction during the class was spot on and so good. The facility was nice and clean with a large locker room. I highly recommend Westside MMA!

I learned how vital gym culture was when I came to westside, having tried other BJJ gyms, westside stood head and shoulders above the rest on the first day (been well over a year now).What Roli, Matt and the other coaches have done is create a culture of people who are there to learn and grow no big egos everybody is there to help you! I love westside, highly recommend to anybody wanting to learn a valuable skill and be apart of an awesome community!

Westside is a great gym. I've had the honor of training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with Coach Roli the few times I can get down to the Little Rock area. Everyone, from the instructors to the front desk to the students, are all incredibly welcoming. They were very fast at getting back to me when I asked them questions, both using their website's contact us feature, and their Facebook page. Their class schedule fit very well with my work schedule to where I can get here early enough to change and prepare for training. And the visitor prices we discussed were very fair. If you're visiting the Little Rock area via Camp Robinson, like I do, and you train in either a striking or a grappling art, you need to train here. If you're a local looking at joining a great gym to learn some excellent skills and get a solid workout, you need to train here.
