I'm a 32 year old dad and a beginner in MMA and juijitsu. I've been training here for a few months and it's been amazing. Coach Mike has built an awesome culture and team here. No egos, just people trying to get better.

My son is 12 and has been going to United MMA East Mesa and training with Mike for 3 months now. Mike is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and motivates the children without pushing them to the point of burning out. Mike is awesome at laying a great foundation while having fun, and we look forward to watching the gym and ourselves grow together through mutual combat. Ty is one of the members that helps with the kids classes as well and is a great bonus for the gym and team. Very patient and kind but also knowledgeable. Always a good day when he walks in. Gym is kept very clean at all times, and has bathroom and water amenities. 10/10 would recommend this to anyone looking build a solid mma foundation.

Absolutely incredible MMA gym! Coach Mike is outstanding—his knowledge of all levels of MMA is truly impressive, and he’s amazing with kids. He has a unique way of balancing discipline with encouragement, making every session fun yet productive. Coach Mike is particularly gentle and patient with the younger kids, fostering a supportive environment where they learn skills and respect for the sport. My son looks forward to every single training session and is always eager to go back. This gym is a gem for anyone looking to grow in MMA, from beginners to advanced students. Highly recommend!

All three of my boys have trained with United MMA for the last six years. My oldest son is now competing at the next level and placing in the top 3 at major tournaments. Mike is a phenomenal instructor and understands the value of what he’s teaching his students. Don’t hesitate to sign your kids, or even yourself up for something that will help build confidence and a life skill that will benefit you and them forever.
