Pure MMA NYC

Been training with Matt since the beginning of the pandemic and it has transformed my life. He teaches foundationally, from the ground up, with precision of technique, and will not lie to you. This is for individuals who want to shoot up to the top in the world of mixed martial arts, and will effectively become very confident in all walks of life because of it.

Matt is an outstanding, multi-talented instructor. He turned me from an absolute beginner boxer into a boxer capable of holding his own against most opponents in my weight class, and fairly dominant against boxers who are lighter than I am. We spent considerable time clinching, so that I am confident that when opponents attempt to grapple with me that I am able to keep from being overborne. Finally, Matt taught the foundational moves of Brazilian jujitsu, to the point where I will never be trapped by an opponent that isn’t fairly skilled in ground game. If you are serious and focused, Matt is your man.

Coach Matt took his time out to listen to my story and tell me what I need to focus on as a fighter. He was very respectful and responsive with me. I am happy I reached out.

I had zero martial arts experience when I first started taking lessons with Matt. He has been very patient from day one and breaks down complex skills into bite-sized chunks that I can learn one step at a time. In short, he is an excellent teacher! I highly recommend him to anyone who is serious about learning martial arts.
