Pure Mixed Martial Arts

I’ve been a member of Pure for almost a year and a half now. I was super hesitant to join because it was something new and a huge step outside of my comfort zone. Literally, by the end of my first class I was hooked. I felt embraced immediately which really helped with my initial anxiety in joining. Andy and Mikey, along with all of the other coaches create such an amazing learning experience and everyone leaves their ego at the door. Pure really does feel like a second family and I’ve made great friends in my short tenure there. I cannot imagine finding another gym, especially given the size, that would have such a friendly environment where everyone is out to help one another. Beginning Jiu Jitsu, but more specifically joining Pure, has been one of the best life decisions I have ever made. Whatever discipline you’re looking to get involved with, Pure has it all. You won’t regret it. More...

I have been training at Pure for about a year now and it's been a great experience. Andy, Mikey, and all of the coaches care about each students progression. No matter what your goals are, there is something for everyone and it is done so in an environment that allows each person to learn. I believe there's Black Friday specials going on now too, so if you're looking to start getting in shape for the New Year, having fun, and meeting a lot of people, this is the place to be... See you there! More...

One of the most warm and welcoming gyms in the area! They are amazing with my 4 year old and the bonus is that while he takes class, I can workout as well and model a healthy lifestyle for him. Highly recommend.

Instructors Andy Main & Mike Main have the best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu academy in Morris County, NJ. The friendly and warm atmosphere makes all newcomers feel welcome and part of the team. The academy's students of all ages and levels are extremely supportive and go out of their way to help all novices. There are no egos or showmanship at PureMMA and Fitness...just humility and friendship. When my two daughters Penelope & Viviana are old enough to start training PureMMA will be their home for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. More...

Training at the Main Brothers Academy is a powerful experience. You truly get the best of all worlds. Mike and Andy Main embody what true martial artists are - through their talent, their dedication, their achievements and the way they live their lives in general. They are superior instructors with an ever increasing following of like minded students, who are dedicated to living empowered, positive lives on and off the mats. The benefits of training reach every area of my life. My 11 year old son trains too and is equally impacted by the mental and physical benefits that come with learning at an academy of this level. It is a true gem! More...

Having been introduced to BJJ from my boyfriend and being a completely new student on all levels, I can honestly say Pure MMA is an amazing place to begin this kind of journey. From experienced and awesome coaches to the incredible members, there will never be a moment where you don't feel like your family. I couldn't be happier to be a part of this gym and encourage anyone that's even the slightest bit interested to give Pure a shot! More...

The Main Brothers are exceptional to say the least. I have trained Karate (Since 1990), Boxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Since April 2012). There are so many different experiences I have had learning to defend myself. First is the Martial Art itself. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been by far, the most rewarding and realistic experience that I have had in terms of self-defense. You know where you stand without question every class.

Within each martial art are different schools and instructors. I have experienced everything from complete rigidity and cult-like expectations to the pure, conscious environment that the Main Brothers provide. It really is a place that you can come to train without experiencing ego. Both Andy and Mike are very skilled in the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, MMA and also have a way to make all students feel comfortable and confident.

It is so rare to find a gem like Pure MMA. Here there are no expectations to blindly follow or to follow some political code like I have seen before. The Main Brothers give their 100% to every student that walks in that door. I have never witnessed them putting anyone down or seeming frustrated to have to repeat anything. This is BY FAR the most positive martial arts environment that I’ve been in. These guys really embrace the essence of true martial artists without being distracted by phony self-serving antics or practices that just get in the way of true development.
There is so much to be said about the wisdom, encouragement and awareness of the instructors but you have to experience it to know exactly what I’m talking about. These guys are top notch. Their instruction and attention to detail is unbelievable. My abilities have exploded because of their instruction. I was stuck at a plateau but they helped me blast right through it. They do a great job of teaching the fundamentals but also incorporating technical and detailed instruction of more complex techniques that other schools usually hold back from teaching students.

I strongly recommend anyone that is looking to train martial arts to train at Pure MMA! You won’t regret it!! Every time I train is a blast and everyone there has a great time!! The positive energy, camaraderie, quality instruction and overall experience are second to none!!! More...

After the toughest year of my life I knew some changes had to be made. After focusing a few months on myself mentally I joined Pure and found what had been missing for so long. Structure, commitment, friendships, and love. I found all these things at pure and can honestly say it has helped save my life. The Main brothers are second to none in jui jitsu and truly care about each student. Thanks Pure for helping in making me the man I am today. Your staff and students are all amazing. More...

Awesome atmosphere. Great people ! Excellent Martial Arts instruction . My daughter and I both train here and it has had a very positive effect on both of us . My daughter has gained a tremendous amount of confidence since she began training Jiu Jitsu here and I have also seen it impact her grades at school in a positive way . Seems there is some correlation between martial arts and school work but I don't know exactly what it is , lol . I highly recommend this school for anyone young or old, male or female . Also, it's LESS expensive to train here than other schools near by . More...

Kickboxing is the best workout, not only physically, but mentally as well. Wonderful staff, truly takes the time to show you the moves, always pushing you to do your best. I joined the kickboxing program in October, previous to that I had lost 25 pounds so I wanted a program that not only would help me maintain what I have already done, but help me keep going. I have never been more tone in my life !! The energy I have after I take one of these classes not only last though out the day, but through out the week. Come check out a class, you will not be sorry. I also need to mention that my children attend the kids BJJ classes, my son attends Judo and Taekwondo. My husband also attends the adult BJJ classes, this school is one of the best environments for our family and there is not a day that goes by that I am not thankful we have all become better people for it. PURE is truly is the best Mixed Martial Arts school and I thank the owners and the staff for making it such a welcoming, family friendly environment. More...

I haven't been to Pure in a while for various reasons, but my time there couldn't have been better. You're welcome the second you walk in, everyone is so friendly and personable, and nobody, (no matter their rank), is too good to work with you. It's the perfect learning environment. The Main Brothers are expanding their academy so quickly for a very good reason. I can honestly say I miss it every single day. If you're even considering trying it out, just go.
