A TRUSTED Fresno JIU JITSU & MARTIAL ARTS GYM

What makes Ultimate Martial Arts different?

At Ultimate Martial Arts, how kids are taught in our Fresno Jiu Jitsu and martial arts classes matters just as much as what they learn.

We intentionally keep a low instructor-to-student ratio so every child receives real attention, correction, and encouragement during class. Kids aren’t rushed, compared, or left to figure things out on their own.

Our coaches focus on effort, respect, and steady progress. That creates a positive, structured environment where kids feel safe trying new things, learning from mistakes, and building confidence over time.

SIMPLE STRUCTURE. REAL COACHING. A PLACE KIDS ACTUALLY WANT TO COME BACK TO.

What Parents Notice First at Our Fresno jUI JITSU & Martial Arts Gym

Structured Classes That Build Confidence

Our class schedule is designed around real family life in Fresno, making it easier for kids to train consistently without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Consistency is where confidence and progress come from.

High Instructor-to-Student Ratio

We prioritize a high instructor-to-student ratio so every student receives real guidance, corrections, and encouragement during class. This keeps students engaged and supported, no matter their experience level.

Skills That Carry Beyond the Gym

Students gain strength and coordination, but more importantly, they build focus, discipline, and emotional control. These skills show up at school, at home, and in everyday life.

Welcoming for every child

Our programs are welcoming for beginners and supportive for kids of all personalities. No experience is required—just a positive environment where students can grow at their own pace.

Many families stay with us for years because they see the difference — not just on the mat, but at home and at school.

But what matters most is what carries into school and home, focus, emotional control, and the ability to handle challenges without shutting down.

Those skills matter long after class ends.

TESTIMONIALS

What others are saying about Fresno Ultimate Martial Arts

"we couldn’t be happier with the experience!"

Our three-year-old has been attending Ultimate Martial Arts Academy for only a month and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! The structure and guidance provided by the instructors have made a huge difference in his behavior and listening skills. We’ve noticed significant improvement in his patience, focus, and ability to follow directions — all while having so much fun!

"We love the friendliness of the staff, the energy, the passion"

We love UMA. We love the friendliness of the staff, the energy, the passion they have for the art and the students, and their value for family/parenting. My son has been going for two months now and he absolutely loves it. He is fond of his instructors and looks forward to go weekly.

Linda

"The training environment is fantastic"

I have been training in the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program at Ultimate Martial Arts for two years now, and it has been an incredible journey. I have competed in several tournaments, achieved some wins, and grown tremendously in the sport. The training environment is fantastic, and my teammates have become like family to me.

WHAT KIDS REALLY LEARN THROUGH JIU JITSU

Martial arts is the tool, not the end goal.

At Ultimate Martial Arts, kids learn how to:

- Stay focused when things feel challenging

-Try again instead of giving up

- Listen, follow direction, and respect others

- Build confidence without aggression

The physical skills matter, but what parents notice most are the changes at home and at school. This is about helping kids grow into confident, capable humans, not just learning techniques.
