Excellent price for the amount of knowledge and experience Nick and Roger bring. Family atmosphere, you’ll come to improve your skills and stay for the camaraderie!

Whether you’re new to MMA looking to learn and get in shape, or experienced and hoping to pursue your amateur and professional fighting goals there’s no better gym in the state. The coaches and team around always push you to become the best version of yourself. Great for any age or experience level.

I trained here for a while, these guys are true professionals but they arent a-holes about it. These guys really know their stuff! If youre just trying to get your aerobics in you can do that here but ideally this is THE place to go if you want to study and learn the ins & outs of MMA.

This is a great place to train. They teach the actual combat techniques. You learn the real deal.

Great and diverse environment for anyone of any age with affordable and professional coaching. 10/10

Amazing people very knowledgeable about mma friendly atmosphere.

High price, low fun, would not recommend for minorities.

Do you guys sell reusable bags for groceries?

Been going to FAA for a little over two months. The coaching is top tier. Nick is an amazing and motivational coach who is looking to have everyone reach their goals. Everyone there is out to better one another. No matter what your goal, FAA is the place to go.

Absolutely fantastic! You want a great workout and an adrenaline fix at the same time: MMA is where it is at. Nick and his instructors are the best. Dont miss out.

Nick is such a great coach! Great environment and fun class! Don’t hesitate to sign up!

Kick boxing classes are great, the BJJ classes are tough but worth learning and attending !

The atmosphere is always positive and the other members motivate me to achieve my goals. I’ve been going here for about 9 months and my transformation has been amazing. My energy has gone up dramatically and I feel so much healthier. Thanks Nick and the team!!!!!

Phenomenal facility. The instructors are amazing and full of knowledge and experience. The environment is fun and positive. Clean facility. True definition of a MIXED MARTIAL ARTS gym. If you are looking to become a well rounded fighter or just a unique and fun way to exercise then this is absolutely the place for you. HIGHLY recommend giving it a try.

My daughter loves coming to FAA. The environment is always positive and motivating!! Nick is the absolute best, and is extremely knowledgeable in his sport. We look forward to coming to class!

Nick and his team are awesome, happy to belong to FAA

I love being here the atmosphere is perfect the gym is clean everyone is respectful wouldn’t want to train anywhere else ! if u want a coach that actually cares about your progress Nick Newell’s fighting arts academy is the place to be !

As a new student I was immediately impressed by how Nick Newell runs his gym. He spends a lot of time teaching new students the basics. Everyone is friendly at the gym and the more experienced students go out of their way to help anyone starting out. If you have any interest in learning martial arts I would highly recommend checking this place out no matter your skill level.

Very clean facility and classes 6 days a week. The instructor Nick makes sure the whole class is on the same page and provides an excellent workout. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get started in martial arts as well as those already experienced!

I dont know how to begin. I walked in and Nick was more than happy to greet me and was very cool to talk with. All levels are welcome. He has great fighters there training professionally and just starting off as well! It feels very personal and he is always open for questions. Always excited to go in!

This place is the best. Felt immediately welcomed there with no mma experience and was training side by side with the best of the best on the first day . Would recommend to everyone.

Whether you are a beginner or a professional coach nick treats all his students goals whether they be to become a world champion or get in shape As very important and motivates you to reach that goal. Family atmosphere and very friendly for anyone interested in joining I would recommend 100 percent and by far the best priced gym as well for what you learn !

Fantastic gym to become skilled in BJJ and kick boxing. Also will get you in great physical shape. The trainer Nick is easy to get along with and makes sure each class accommodates everyone regardless of experience.

The greatest place Ive trained at this far. Great coaches, great team mates. Over all a great environment for anyone to be in for all experience levels.

Great place to train for beginners and advanced. If your looking to get in shape while trying to learn martial arts this is the place to be.

Nick is really helpful and the members are very welcoming to newcomers especially with assisting in technique

Great place to get your sweat on and learn things you didnt know your body was capable of doing! The instructor is not only well educated in the training he provides but is an individual that truly inspires you to be great!

Fighting arts academy is an incredible school to go to and the head coach and owner, Nick Newell, is one of the most talented and genuine coaches I have ever worked with. This school is perfect whether youre looking to just become active or looking to become an MMA world champion. The environment is very welcoming to all people regardless of experience and skill. Nick puts 110% into this gym and his students and will go above and beyond to help you achieve your goals. Would strongly recommend everyone give this place a shot!

Stand by to get some. FAA-CT is a low-frills MMA gym where the focus is on family, friendship, and getting after it. Nick and his instructors are top notch professionals who make it a point to connect with every student. They make sure new students are given a comfortable place to practice and learn while still giving the experienced athletes the space they need to work and sweat.FAA-CT is MMA-focused so very little time is spent on the structure and rituals you may have experienced in traditional martial arts. The gym is kept clean and the atmosphere is loosed and fun while still maintaining high levels of focus and safety for all. They are also very affordable compared to comparable MMA gyms in the area.The best endorsement I can give comes from my kids. My 9yo daughter checks the class schedule a few times a day and wont stop asking what class is next and how many days away it is. My 15yo has found a new extended family. She leaves every workout glowing not because shes learning how to fight, but because every adult in the gym has taken the time to learn her name and gives her the good work fist bump after every class.

Just started training with Nick at FAA. His enthusiasm for coaching has sparked my interest in both grappling and striking. Hes an incredibly well-rounded athlete who encourages students to work hard. The price is reasonable and the class schedules are very manageable, I would definitely recommend FAA to anyone interested in beginning Martial Arts or experienced grapplers/kickboxers.

Seen nick had a gym tried it out and now joined it clean place nice people to make you feel welcomed plus a good workout

Nick is an amazing person and such a great mentor for kids! He has been such an inspiration to my son and is always willing to help my son!

Great training and environment. Highly recommended to anyone looking to get in shape, learn MMA, develop as a martial artist, learn BJJ, wrestling, kickboxing or any new skill.

Fighting Arts Acadamy CT with Nick Newell is a great place to learn self confidence along with mixed martial arts. He is an amazing instructor and mentor.
