This gym is a treasure. Other gyms can be inhospitable and dangerous. Judah and Keren demonstrate care for practitioners and do not put them at risk of injury. The progressions of the lessons are thought out and build seamlessly on one another. Excellent gym!! This gym is a treasure. Other gyms can be inhospitable and dangerous.

The Garden MMA is truly a gem in the heart of the Germantown community, located conveniently near Wayne Junction. Judah and Keren have created an inspiring and safe space that caters to everyone—whether you're experienced, new, a hobbyist, or a competitor. If you value authenticity, community, and a raw, real environment, The Garden MMA delivers. I'm especially impressed by the gym's cleanliness, the thoughtful use of the space, and its ideal location—close to my home and the R1 train station. The layout is both functional and calming, with big, bright windows that let in natural light, creating a zen-like, feng shui atmosphere as you train. In the winter, the warm and cozy vibes are exactly what you need. The inclusivity here is a major plus. They offer women's self-defense and yoga classes, making the gym welcoming for everyone. I felt completely at ease during my visit and am excited to sign up for a membership in January. I highly recommend checking out The Garden MMA—this gym is truly special!

The facility is beautiful. The mats are clean and top of the line. Judah is a wonderful coach, very knowledgeable, patient and breaks down every move in a way that you understand the mechanics of the move, when and why it would be effective in a match and how to defend, a true understanding of the art of eight limbs and bjj. Judah is such a positive and passionate coach that it's hard not to feel welcomed and a part of the team the moment you walk through the doors. The wealth of knowledge is apparent, whether it is in muay thai or Brazilian jiujitsu. You can't find a finer facility in the city. Judah and Keren have brought a truly great academy to reality and I can't recommend it more. I have trained at many gyms over the years and have never felt more at home than I have here.
