Train. Fight. Succeed.

Welcome to The Wolves’ Den Training Center, where excellence in martial arts training meets a passionate community of students and instructors. Since opening our doors in 2015, we’ve been dedicated to offering world-class instruction in a variety of martial arts disciplines, helping people of all ages and skill levels unlock their full potential.

We pride ourselves on top-tier training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, kickboxing, wrestling, youth programs, mixed martial arts, and more. Our instructors bring years of experience, a commitment to safety, and a genuine passion for teaching — so every student gets the highest level of guidance on their martial arts journey.

Classes run mornings and evenings, seven days a week, at both locations — and your first class is free. Want focused one-on-one work? Private lessons with head coach Andrew Ebers are available at $70 per hour.

Youth Programs

Jiu-Jitsu (Gi & No-Gi)KickboxingWrestlingYouth MMAAges 5+

Our youth program gives kids real martial arts — not a watered-down version. Young students train in jiu-jitsu (gi and no-gi), kickboxing, wrestling, and youth MMA fundamentals, in structured, age-appropriate classes coached by our staff.

Along the way they build coordination, strength, and confidence — plus respect, discipline, and the ability to stay calm under pressure. Kids can start at age 5 (wrestling starts at 5), beginners are welcome in every class, and their first class is always free.

Kickboxing Classes

Kickboxing and Muay Thai are the striking base at The Wolves’ Den: punches, kicks, knees, elbows, and clinch work — taught the way fighters actually use them. Separate boxing classes run for students who want to focus on their hands.

Classes mix pad work, bag rounds, footwork, and conditioning, with technique drilled every session. Beginners build clean fundamentals from day one, and experienced strikers keep sharpening. Sparring is there when you’re ready for it — never before. Come for the workout if you want; stay because you’re actually learning to strike.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Gi & No-GiTakedownsSubmissionsEscapesLive rolling

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the ground game: takedowns, positional control, escapes, and submissions — and how to stay calm when someone bigger is on top of you. We train in both gi and no-gi, with classes mornings and evenings, seven days a week.

Every session breaks technique down step by step, drills it with a partner, then tests it in live rolling at a pace that fits your level. Beginners start on fundamentals and positional work — you’re a training partner here, never a target. Whether it’s self-defense, competition, or the best problem-solving workout there is, it starts on these mats.

Wrestling

TakedownsTop controlYouth from age 5Adults from 14

Wrestling is the engine of grappling: takedowns, top control, pins, and escapes — the skills that decide where a fight happens. It’s also one of the best athletic bases a kid can build for any sport they’ll ever play.

Our youth wrestling program starts at age 5, teaching stance, shots, and mat awareness in a structured, coached setting — and our young wrestlers compete and bring home medals. Older students step into adult wrestling from age 14, where training connects directly into our jiu-jitsu and MMA programs. Whether the goal is a stronger school wrestling season, a better ground game, or a first medal, it starts here.

Mixed Martial Arts

Striking + grapplingCage craftFight team pathwayUFC & ranked fightersInvite-only

Mixed Martial Arts is where everything comes together — striking, wrestling, and jiu-jitsu blended into one system, from cage craft to fight IQ. And the room has the résumé to back it up: The Wolves’ Den fields a professional fight team — fighters out of the Den have competed in the UFC, and our pros have held rankings.

MMA training at The Wolves’ Den is earned. Students build their base first in kickboxing, wrestling, and jiu-jitsu, and our coaches invite them into MMA training when they’re ready. That keeps the room safe, the level high, and the pathway real: start in the base programs, put in the work, and the road to the MMA room — and the cage, if that’s your goal — runs right through this gym.
