Weapons At Hand MMA Academy

I came to the gym almost a year ago and I can proudly say that I loved every minute if it. I have done each class and learned a lot from each coach. Whether it was from kickboxing to jiu jitsu (gi and no gi) or cardio kickboxing, the coaches were there to help if I didn’t know certain things. Not only that, the members in the gym were (still are) very welcoming to new people and there to help out in anyway possible. I knew when I came to this gym, this was the place to be. I even got my mother, my brother and kids to join and they all seem to have the same great experience as I did. I recommend this gym to everyone who wants train in mma, kickboxing, jiu-jitsu or even to get in shape. Hope this review helped and can’t wait to see new faces there! Let’s go! 💪💪

Love this place. All the people were great and welcoming. Really learned a lot in a very short time. Prices are very fair, Rudy is great. Joel was very helpful also. Had to stop going due to scheduling conflict but sure wish I could be there every day

Been going for over 2 years and can’t say enough great things about that place!
The staff is top notch, you can expect world class instruction from coaches that actually put themselves out there and lead by example.

One of the best places to learn kickboxing, mma, bjj, and more. Great for if you are trying to look into competing or just wanting to get into better shape. I highly recommend giving the place a try.

I love everything about Weapons at Hand. I came in with absolutely no experience in martial arts, and started doing the women’s only classes. They are killer for cardio, and they really teach you the basics of martial arts. Every instructor I’ve worked with is professional, caring, and friendly. When I moved up and started doing the partner drills classes, I learned so much from all the fighters and competitors at WAH. Rudy is top notch and really has a way of explaining things to you so that it clicks, and he doesn’t have anyone instructing in his academy that don’t meet his standards. Roger and his jiu jitsu program are also incredible. He’s a well rounded coach who really cares for his students. I have trained at multiple gyms all over Texas since moving from Corpus, and literally nothing compares to the atmosphere, instructors, and quality of Weapons at Hand.

Our gson has been a member of WAH for three+ years and he absolutely loves everything about this academy- coaches, peers, cross- training, etc. The training can be very intense, but intense only makes one better! If ever there is a problem at the gym, and a coach is notified of the problem, one can be certain the problem will be addressed in-house. My gson has been a member at other gyms, but WAH is the first MMA gym that I trust with the safety of my gson. WAH really reflects a family atmosphere. Give it a try- you won't be disappointed!

I’ve been going to Weapons At Hand since about 2011 so believe me when I tell you there’s no place like it from the coaches to each and every member.

Love this school! I own and operate Austin Kickboxing Academy. When any of my students, fighters or family are looking for a place to train in the Nueces County area, this is where I sent them. Coaches Rudy, Stacie and all the others are the best in Corpus Christi for Kickboxing, MMA, Kids MMA and Fitness. Been coming here on and off for the past 20 years and couldn't recommend a better place for the whole family.

Awesome atmosphere & welcoming environment! Definitely would recommend anybody to try at least 1 class to see for yourself!

I have two 8yr olds that have been coming here for a months now and I have to say , they both , boy and girl , have become happier kids at school. Now I know this is a strange thing to say but an even more surprising thing to realize. My little boy was having problems with a bully at school he never told anyone about ! As a parent its the most helpless and heart breaking thing to deal with . I didn't bring my kids here for self defense, only to have something to do between football seasons. One day I went to pick up my kids from after school Latchkey and one of the staff informed me that my son was in time out... but not in trouble !?! I asked what happened and they informed that he was choking a bigger boy from behind on the ground ! Then I asked , " then ,what do you mean he's not in trouble ...? " Thats when the staff told me my son has been having problems with this boy for a while now , I was so angry they didn't tell me sooner or why they hadn't seperated them sooner ! After all the excuses ... They told me the bully attacked my son again like always and that my son got up off the ground , took down the bully and did a reverse choke he just learned from Weapons@Hand to make the bully stop ! My son wasn't in trouble because it was all self defense , said the staff. I had mixed emotions about the whole siduation but when I finally walked up to my son he was so happy what he did and finally told me that this bully had been hurting him for awhile now 👿 !!! Days after the incident he told me he had allot of kids wanting to be his friend , even the bully which he said NO too 😏. These instructors have helped my kids in a way I couldn't , and revieled a darkside I didn't know was there . Things happen for a reason... my kids love this sport and have medals to prove it . It's not the medals they win that matter to me , its the better life they will live and the new found confidence that does.

I've been coming to Weapons at Hand for almost 5 years. Great place to train!

Just attended a no-gi open mat session here. People were friendly and I got some good rolls in.

Absolutely a great place for your young ones to learn self defense

I attend the Monday night kickboxing class for women. It's $5 everytime, which doesn't seem like a bad price, and the class really pushes you and teaches you how to punch and kick.

A+ ; From beginner level to pros, from young to old- all around great experience. Highly recommend.

Great place to learn wrestling. Great coaches too!

ho much and when is open mat? i NEEEED to get my Boyfriend in!

Great team great atmosphere for competition athletes and practitioners of martial arts

I dropped in for a womans kickboxing class and loved it. I will return.
