Fantastic experience: Been here for 6 months and you won't regret trying a free class. The coaches are all great and cater for everyone's individual goals. Whether you want to get fit, learn a new skill or work on specific aspects of fighting, this is the place to go. Great atmosphere and people! Cannot reccomend enough.

Matt Dayton 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been loving going to Mavericks since I signed up for personal MMA training with Nick a few months ago. His coaching is friendly, motivating, and highly educational - I'm constantly learning and improving in terms of technique and fitness, and always look forward to my next session. I also attended a BJJ class recently and am looking forward to returning for more of those. Highly recommend going along if you're at all interested by the idea of martial arts!

Sophie Walker 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Mavericks for around 6 months and it’s been the best decision I have made - the instructors are extremely knowledgable and supportive; and everyone on the mats are so friendly. Don’t feel intimidated to come here if you’re a beginner; it’s like a big family and you’ll be improving your skills every day. Couldn’t recommend Mavericks more, definitely try out all the classes!

Doug Hutton 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great academy for MMA, BJJ & Kickboxing. Friendly & welcoming instructors, with classes for all levels, adult & kids.

Luca Cappalonga 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Mavericks for a few years now and the only regret I have is not joining earlier. The coaches are amazing including Nick Fielding, Higo Gomez both being black belts at BJJ and Henry Grimble to help with your wrestling game. Not only do they help you become a better fighter, but they also treat everyone with respect and make you feel welcome to be there. It is a great place to build up your confidence, your goals (if you are looking to fight or just train), build up your fitness and make friends. The social aspect is great, everyone at the club is very friendly with no egos and are willing to help, making you feel part of the Mavericks family. I have improved massively since joining a few years ago and have even competed in 2x K1 fights and in jiu jitsu. This had made me more motivated in my everyday life and no matter what age you are, it is never too late to start. I would highly recommend coming to a class to try it out and I’m sure you will be hooked from there.

Joshua Stansfield 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: the best gym i’ve had the honour of training at. The coaches are knowledgeable, friendly and always willing to help. The community of people at this gym are kind and thoughtful about their training partners. I’m sad to be leaving this gym in the near future but in the time i’ve spent here, my martial arts have been taken to the next level which I’m grateful for. A great gym for beginners and experienced fighters alike. I doubt that this year will be the last time that I train here.

Ollie Raynes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, I have been going here since the end of lockdown. If you’re looking to get into MMA, jujitsu or kickboxing this gym perfect for both people that are starting their martial arts journey or those that are deep into it. Great for all levels, men and women, all are welcome.

Samyak Mitra 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Methodical and Technical ways of MMA is preached here. Would recommend it to anyone. Helpful and dedicated Trainers.

Paul Brooks 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Mavericks is quite simply an exceptional martial arts academy. I’ve trained at a couple of big schools in London, and the fact this level of expertise is available on my doorstep in leafy Guildford is a blessing I count every day. I’ve trained Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) Gi and No-Gi, plus the odd bit of MMA, since January 2019 at Mavericks. And whether you’re a recreational martial artist who trains for fitness and self-defence, or a wannabe fighter aiming to compete, the gym caters for all levels and all aspirations. For BJJ, two BJJ black belts run classes. For MMA, a pro MMA fighter does the teaching. Kickboxing is taught by an accomplished black belt and competitive fighter. But don’t think this is some macho gym filled with testosterone-fuelled tattooed hulks spouting smack talk. It’s a genuinely supportive training environment where you’ll be pushed to improve – but never made to feel bad if you’re struggling. Everybody’s martial arts journey is different. The teachers here recognise that and they support your progress, whether you’re a youngster learning roundhouse kicks at the kids classes or a fiftysomething struggling with armbar set-ups. Walking into a martial arts gym for the first time can be a daunting prospect. If you choose to take that first step at Mavericks, you won’t regret the decision.

Steven Brown 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Hi, I’ve been in a lot of gyms of various types over the years and I can quite honestly say this has the best vibe. There’s no egos or attitude from any of the coaches or members. It’s an absolute pleasure to train here and I have nothing but respect for everyone involved at Mavericks.

Rebecca Greig 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have a personal trainer from Mavericks. It's brilliant and Angela is very encouraging and skilled. I'm a lot fitter, my running has improved and I've completed a triathlon and a marathon on the back of the fitness. There's a good mix of balance, strength and cardio work. I really enjoy it. Flexible training means I can fit it in around work.

bea 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was quite nervous at first coming to my first Brazilian jiu-jitsu class but the coaches and people there were all so encouraging! It has a welcoming and inclusive environment with plenty of classes to fit your schedule regardless of how busy it may be. I truly recommend this place for beginner or advanced martial artists :]

WMC 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Trained here for about 5 months and had to leave due to moving country. Never had any fighting training in my life previously and cannot recommend this gym / academy enough! All the coaches are highly skilled with the knowledge to train anyone from the ground up. If you're dabbling in the idea of learning a martial art / MMA or even just joining this gym to progress further then this is definitely the place to go.

Justine Jenkins 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Mavericks is a professionally run academy that welcomes everyone. I’ve always felt comfortable training as the community there is incredible. The trainers are knowledgeable and experienced, and they ensure the dojo is clean and safe. I highly recommend Mavericks whether it’s Brazilian jiu-jitsu, striking or MMA you’re interested in, no matter what your background.

Fantastic experience: Great club with great instructors and a really friendly atmosphere. Nick is a great coach and very quickly understands what you are looking for and helps you develop the game you want. BJJ classes, wrestling, good MMA focus, GI and no Gi are all excellent.

Felipe Santolalla 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: When I walked into Mavericks I was astonished by the friendly atmosphere of the gym. No bad vibes. Everyone is there to help you. I am glad I was able to compete while I was in Mavericks. Through the amazing teaching I received I felt super confident all the time. I recommend this gym to anyone who wants to learn martial arts or simply get fit due to the supportive team and family atmosphere Mavericks has!

Josef De Vivo 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you want a gym with friendly coaches, no egos & an absolutely amazing foundation to MMA, kickboxing or BJJ then this is the gym for you...Mavericks is proven at taking newcomers and converting them to winners & then champions. The detail into techniques & the fundamentals of MMA & BJJ are taught so well by Nick Fielding that you leave feeling more knowledgeable and confident after every training session. Even if it has been difficult grasping something new, Nick always makes sure you leave feeling like you've gained. Overall a great gym and perfect if you're looking to get into or hone your martial arts skills, couldn't recommend highly enough.

Simon Says 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was lucky to find such a great MMA academy and have the privilege of benefiting from Nick's motivating, inspiring and personable coaching. Especially when joining the club, I felt very welcome and have had the pleasure of meeting some very friendly and impressive athletes since. I look forward to my first amateur competition under Nick's guidance!

Rob Norton 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I walked into Mavericks only a few months ago as a complete beginner. Upon entering the gym I was surprised with how many people said hello and immediately introduced themselves to me. From the very first day the team and members at Mavericks have been very welcoming. The coach “Nick Fielding” asked my experience level and thankfully gave me a great introduction to the basics of step/ movements then progressed onto punches & kicks. In only 6 weeks I have lost a load of weight and improved massively on fitness and technique. Everyone in the gym is willing to help and show you new moves and teach you where they can. I am very impressed with the social aspect of the gym and the focus from everyone attending. You couldn’t ask for a better atmosphere or nicer group of people. I look forward to working with the team to increase my experience and improve my technique to compete. I highly recommend joining Mavericks both as a beginner and from an advanced stage to learn from Nick and the team.

Sabrina Moutarde 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Just attended a great fitness class there will be back for sure. Thanks Angela for a great welcome and workout!

Harpz 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Mavericks for almost 8 years and have been on their Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) programme for 7 years. The club has a fantastic atmosphere which is friendly, encouraging, engaging, challenging and supportive. The instructors are top quality with extensive competition experience in MMA, Kickboxing, K1, and BJJ. This by no means means that students have to compete but there is ample opportunities to do so if you so wish. Anyone looking to learn new skills, polish old skills, compete in martial arts, or just get fit, have fun and make new friends, I highly recommend Mavericks Martial Arts. See you on the mats!

Debbie Tsang 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Started at mavericks last year doing mma and K1 classes. Amazing coaches, amazing team, like family in the gym. Went from 0 knowledge or knowing anything, to competing in 2 K1 fights, and later started BJJ with mavericks under nick and gomez in under a year. Absolutely obsessed and got a fab girl team forming. There are regular training sessions every day, day and evening classes, beginners and advanced with team mates of all abilities. We regularly compete as a gym so plenty of opportunities!

Harry Wood 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: A superb, knowledgeable and friendly team, suitable for all levels of experience. Cannot recommend highly enough if you are looking for a new challenge.

Fantastic experience: I started training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at Mavericks 5 months ago and I absolutely love it. I’m hooked! The atmosphere is great, so friendly and like one big family. My children also train BJJ here and they also love it and have looked forward to it every week. I can’t recommend it enough. So if you have ever considered starting BJJ Or other martial arts, want to get fit and make friends then come along and try. Mavericks is very welcoming and I haven’t felt intimidated once! You won’t regret it!!

Chris Sinclair-Birt 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: A really good laugh with a solid team. Learnt a lot and always had fun Much more than just a kickboxing Acadamy!

Katie Kelly 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been coming here since she was five and has always loved it. Now 12, an age when lots of girls lose interest in sport or indeed moving around at all, she is still going twice a week, working up a sweat and having a brilliant time. She would be the first to admit that she doesn't have a particular flair for martial arts so she is working through the belts very steadily. For her it's not about being the best it's about taking part, being active and making gradual improvements week on week. My eight-year-old son started coming along three years ago and hasn't looked back either. It's great to see him working hard and improving his concentration and technique. And frankly, he's a much nicer person to be around when he's been on the mat for an hour or so. The club is friendly and relaxed and the instructors are great with the kids - managing to make the sessions fun but disciplined. We highly recommend it.

Pavel Bubenik 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: great academy, great and friendly instructor. My son Tomas loves every minute of Mini Maverick (lit dragon) training . I highly recommend Mavericks academy.

Steve Groves 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: My son started with the mini's clubs when he was 7 and really enjoyed it.. Two years later he progressed to the kids group, is a yellow belt at kickboxing and now has some of his school mates joining him.

Jon Freeman 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been training here for slightly under a year now. I would highly recommend Mavericks Martial Arts to anyone who has an interest in kickboxing, MMA or Ju-jitsu. Fantastic training sessions, great instructors and overall a friendly welcoming community. Every time I finish a session I feel like I've learnt something new and pushed myself that extra step further. 5 stars

Rodney Watters 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have 2 girls who joined 3 years ago and absolutely love the training. My little one joined just before her 4th birthday. The instructors strike a great balance between discipline and encouragement. Mini mavericks classes are well structured, working through different themes over a period of weeks. Classes often end with circle time where they recap on the class and engage in topics ranging from respect for others to skin tips for hot sunny days! This is a great intro class and a great confidence builder (and a chance to mix with boys). My older girl came up through the mini mavericks class (previously lil dragons) and now attends the kids classes. She was ready for the jump in level of physicality and this class does not disappoint - with European and world champions as training partners she is looking forward to competing in the near future. Really cannot praise the instructors and staff highly enough and I thoroughly recommend this academy to anyone looking to bring kids out of their shells or instil discipline in the "free spirited" ones.

Mantas Burba 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’m training in Mavericks Martial arts which is located in Guildford for more than 3 years now. The instructors are really helpful and full trained, the staff reproduce the best quality of technics. Also, their attitude is great and they are helpful and advice you with any problems or question you have. In my opinion, it is a great thing to try. I would recommend everyone to try it and join such a great team and become a part of Mavericks family.. 7 star club ******

Annalees Lim 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to the Brazilian Jiujitsu class for three years...and can’t imagine ever leaving. Soooo friendly and great team spirit...and all taught by amazing coaches! If you’re looking for somewhere to get fit and most importantly be a part of a fantastic team, then look no further. Especially recommended if you are a gal who wants to learn a bit of self defence in a safe and supportive environment.

Sum Ting Wong 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Brilliant club if you're looking to take it seriously, instructors like Alex and Dan are brilliant at pushing you to your limit, and won't let you slack. But while they push you, they won't hesitate to help you if they see you struggling. Love this place! Sure, the price is a little steep, but it's more than worth it!

Piotr Matysiak 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this place my little boy really enjoy going to classes very professional and friendly staff highly recommended to everyone in Guildford
