HOUSTON'S PREMIER MARTIAL ARTS ACADEMY

Midtown MMA Houston started in 2010 by leasing a small space inside a fitness center. Professor Chris Martinez, then a 3 stripe Blue Belt, made a life changing decision and started the academy with the approval of his Professor, Travis Tooke. Now leading his academy as a Brazilian Jiujitsu Black Belt, Professor Chris takes his students to the next level in training and competition.

“What [Coach Chris] is doing for his team and the Martial Arts community is incredible! His passion for helping others reach their goals is second to none and his students are a reflection of his dedication”

Raul R

“Great place to train, Coach Chris and the staff are awesome. The atmosphere is more like being at a family event, than in a gym. Everybody is out to help you get better at your techniques.”

Travis T

“I cannot say enough good things about Midtown MMA. I started training BJJ here a couple of years ago, and at the time, I knew almost nothing about the sport. Of course that changed quickly through Coach Chris's detailed instruction and the help of my teammates. In a short time, I went from knowing nothing to competing in tournaments and taking home medals.”
