I have attended 10 classes in two weeks, Mark identifies adjustments with moves as he sees you progress. There is a welcoming community around the gym. I see many types of students, some who practice once a week, some twice, others more, and some folks stop in for a class if they are in town for only a couple days. Everyone is encouraged to practice the sport as they feel works best for them. If you are considering this gym, do not hesitate to stop in. More...

Excellent instruction!! I have been attending classes with prof. Hughes for several months now- The classes are challenging and fun. The instruction is top notch and is broken down into easy to understand segments for slower people such as myself. The atmosphere is awesome!! Everyone here has been so helpful and friendly- they make you feel like you are part of their jiu jitsu family. There are no egos here- only friends that want to help you reach your goals- I cant recommend this place enough! More...

I've trained under Mark before at Team Quest and have trained at Hughes Grappling Academy. We both have the same black belt professor. Mark is an excellent Brazilian Jiu jitsu professor for several reasons. Mark will take the time to understand the needs and learning curve of each individual student and will make your journey not only beneficial but FUN! Mark has a great sense of humor but is serious when he needs to be, you will get out of Marks coaching what you put into it. Hughes Grappling Academy offers something only found in a select few schools. A Jiu Jitsu professor who can help kids learn an effective martial art, how to address bulling, help an old guy like me improve his game or a younger practitioner succeed at the competition level. I would say that what I know about Mark and his lineage, experience and expertise he offers the highest level of coaching within a 500-mile radius. More...

Professor Mark brings many years of experience to his school and is an excellent teacher. He teaches sound jiu-jitsu, expects a lot from his students, and will roll with anyone! Great atmosphere and value.
