We all love Ultimate Martial Arts. The staff is impressive, the owners are genuine, and the atmosphere is safe and inviting. Well worth our commitment of time and effort. And as an added bonus- it’s pretty cute to watch.

As a young woman wanting to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, I was nervous starting out, but Ultimate Martial Arts definitely put that nervousness at ease. The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming, with no ego and classes that go at a good pace for beginners. Everyone there, from the instructors to the other students, is always encouraging and supportive. I’ve made friends and love seeing my teammates every week. If you’re looking for a great place to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, I highly recommend Ultimate Martial Arts in Fresno

We have been a Fresno UMA family now for at least 7 years. I have watched my child grow from a scarred timid white belt hiding under Sensei's chairs in the seating area to a black belt in training on the verge of mastering the in-depth lesson plans for promotion. I have watched many of the students grow into excellent staff/employees for Sensei Rudy and Miss Wendy. I have watched my son grow great bonds with his instructors and respect for his Sensei and Marital Arts in general. I have had the pleasure of building strong mutually respective relationships with my fellow Adult Kickboxing peers which I cherish greatly. I literally have watch the building grow into a larger school to accommodate all who wish to join when Sensei Rudy and Miss Wendy renovated and merged the adjacent build to increase student capacity. I have been blessed with finding Sensei Rudy's dojo to keep me healthy and fit while also being blessed with Miss Wendy's excellent managerial service for every scenario or situation off the mat. Fresno UMA is the one Constant in our families busy life that has always been an anchor for our troubled days and worrisome nights. Covid-19 has been a nightmare for all families around the world, but one light in the darkness for our family here in Fresno, CA has been the strength, the companionship, and love that our Fresno UMA has given us all these years. I plan on attending Fresno UMA forever, because I believe in Sensei Rudy and Miss Wendy's vision for teaching Martial Arts. I feel their love for students, parents, and staff everyday I step into our dojo. If you are looking for great a school to learn Martial Arts for your child or yourself, as well as loving and caring people to interact with then Fresno Ultimate Martial Arts is the school for you!!!!!

I have had the privilege to train with Sensei Rudy and his students at Ultimate Martial Arts for over 10 years! Sensei Rudy runs a fantastic dojo that is geared towards everyone from the beginner looking to get in shape, to the seasoned professional martial artist who is looking to challenge themselves. The environment is very welcoming!

I was completely blown away by the classes that were taught by Sensei Rudy and his staff. The classes were organized, really fun, HIGH energy, and very interactive. I watched the staff teach, correct, and give a ton of attention to each student in the group classes. Sensei Rudy has the unique gift of bringing out the best in his students and it's quite obvious that he really enjoys spending time on the mat teaching.

If you are in the area I highly recommend trying a class!
