Midtown Krav Maga & Jiu Jitsu

Today, we had our first two Krav Maga black belts take their test at Krav Maga Alliance! 🥋🔥

Huge congratulations to Neile Martin and 𝖒𝖆𝖈𝖐 for absolutely crushing this test! You are officially our first two black belts, and I couldn’t be more proud of you both. 💪💪

Here’s a quick glimpse of what they had to endure today: 7 hours of Krav Maga training, stand-up sparring, and grappling. 🔥🔥

I’m incredibly proud of our entire team, and it was an honor to help proctor this test and train alongside affiliates from all over.

Watching these two earn their black belts and knowing how much work, discipline, and dedication went into getting here was something I won’t forget.

Congratulations, guys. You earned it! 🥋🖤

Happy birthday to the amazing 🐊elilah ! 🎉
We’ve had the pleasure of watching you grow and train with us since you were 12 years old. It’s been awesome seeing the young woman you’ve become. Happy 16th! We hope you have an incredible day! 🥋❤️

Such a fun weekend at Summit Grappling in Little Rock!

Dawgahh Pj and hugocassiau represented the team well and put on a show. Congrats to LaMichael on his submission win 💪 and to Hugo for stepping up and competing like he always does.

We missed out on a team photo, but we had around 20 people make the trip to support the team. That’s the kind of culture we’re building.

We’re building something special here—both on and off the mats.

What an exciting time for our amazing community! Last night we celebrated another belt promotion ceremony and had the privilege of recognizing the hard work, dedication, and growth of our students in this incredible sport.

On top of that, we’ve hit a couple of huge milestones. Midtown Krav Maga & Jiu Jitsu is officially 5 years old, and our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program is now 3 years strong.

It’s safe to say we’re here to stay. What started as a dream has become an incredible community of people from all walks of life who come together to train, push each other, and grow—both on and off the mats.

Thank you to everyone who has trusted us with your martial arts journey. Whether you’ve been with us since day one or just walked through the doors, you’re part of what makes this place so special.

Here’s to the next chapter. Let’s keep building something special together. 👊🥋💙
