The staff and instructors are fantastic and all work really well under the leadership of Shihan Luis Soto, who brings next level education in the martial arts and mentorship for life.

I personally love knowing my daughter is learning self defense while having fun and staying active. They also look forward to seeing all the new friends they have made in class. When you join, you feel like family. The instructors are great with the kids, keeping them engaged and are extremely knowledgeable. Conveniently located on Shrewsbury St. in Worcester too!

Tong Vo: Both of our kids love Worcester Judo Academy since they started taking Judo lessons here over a year ago. Dojo is spacious, lots of room for kids to practice. Sensei are top notch. Kids are taught by multiple Sensei during the hour. Sensei Luis started online classes during government shutdown for over a month so far and the kids loved it. They look forward to class every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. Thank you to all Sensei that taught Judo to our kids.

They are very knowledgeable in their craft, helpful when someone is struggling, always encouraging and positive, and most importantly maintain high yet achievable expectations. I could go on and on. We are happy to have found this Dojo.

Jason Lee: Great instructors and staff. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. After coming to this dojo for 3-4 years I have a lot more confidence in my hand eye coordination and body awareness.

Andrew Joyce: I started training at Worcester MMA just over 2 years ago now. The coaching staff is wise, engaged and committed. The fundamentals program is an excellent way to get started. Their kids program looks awesome as well, my little ones will be enrolled once they are old enough for sure! BJJ has the potential to have some unbelievable positive effects on your life, and the academy you align with will have a lot to do with that. I am very lucky to be teamed up with Worcester MMA.... You should join too!

Iris Wang: Great coaches, great training partners, great facility, I only have good things to say about WMMA. By far one of the best gyms I've ever trained at!

Brendan Melican: Been training here going on five years now. Best crew of people you never knew you were looking for in Worcester. Like a second family to me, but with less arguing at Thanksgiving.

Yosemit Marrero: Best BJJ in Central Mass, possibly the whole state!

Sean Murtha: Amazing coaches, inspiring teammates. Come train here and you won’t regret it.

J Spen: My son absolutely loves this place. The coaches and staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. Dan and Max have been so good to my son. My son respects them so much and I would recommend this place to kids or adults.

Yuri Sarkisian: Excellent facilities with an even better coaching staff- love this place! OSS

Julie M: Signing up is the hardest step of your Jiu-jitsu career. As a 50 year old woman it was very intimidating. I've had days of both difficult and exciting moments. Everyone at the academy says, "Keep showing up", so I do. "Your body will start to remember the technique ", and it does! The coaches LOVE to teach. They want you to succeed. They are approachable, knowledgeable are always available for questions (and dont mind repeating the same technique a million times during class 😄) I have met and trained with the most extraordinary men and women. Abusado Team has changed my life. These people are not only teammates but FAMILY. Forever Grateful. OSS

Dale Kline: Love Worcester MMA! The training, the high-level and detailed coaching, and teammates make this place incredible! The pedigree and lineage (Renzo Gracie/ Matt Serra) under Dan Simmler, and now team of coaches make this place second to none here in New England. I've been training here since 2008 and now my kids also are training here with the kids team and love it! Highly recommend WMMA!!

Michael Fournier: I have trained at WMMA / Abusado Team for two years. I left left a disaster of a BJJ gym in Central Mass in order to join WMMA / Abusado Team. WMMA / Abusado Team is hands down the best place to train, with the most knowledgeable coaches, great students and fantastic camaraderie.

mathew maruca: Great place for all ages.

David Apotheker: Really well structured intro to BJJ system and great coaches. Everyone who goes here is also really sensible and respectful.

Dan D'Errico: Like others who have posted reviews here, I was in Worcester visiting family for the weekend and hoping to find a bjj gym to train at. I also have an 8yr old daughter who trains and a young nephew who is interested in checking it out. I came in for an adult class on a Saturday morning and brought the kids along.The instructors are legit, very thorough and clear in breaking down techniques, and everyone seemed humble and welcoming. Overall there’s a great team atmosphere and classes seem well structured. Class size was large with a variety of experience levels and body types to roll with but also plenty of space to move around since the gym itself is sizable. It’s also worth noting how clean and airy the gym is.On top of all this, Dan came out and personally instructed the kids even though there were no kids classes scheduled! Needless to say this was much appreciated.I’d highly recommend this school and will definitely be back the next time I’m in the area!

George Fourlas: WMMA/Team Abusado is hands down the best place to train and has everything you will need to thrive as a martial artist and as a person. The coaches are friendly, skilled teachers, and amazingly talented Jiu Jitsukas. The head-coach/master-sensei, Dan Simmler, is always available, supportive, a seemingly endless source of knowledge, and works hard to create an empowering environment for all of his students. Beyond an amazing crew of coaches, the WMMA community is equally outstanding. People from all walks of life can be found flourishing, together, in this Dojo. Put whatever preconceptions or worries you might have about martial arts and MMA dojos aside, and visit WMMA/Team Abusado. You will see that it is a friendly, welcoming environment, and you will transform with this community if you put in the time. From the children’s classes that typically have between 8-15 students and multiple coaches to keep the kids moving/growing, to women only seminars, to private lessons to help get you over that stubborn plateau, I cannot overemphasize how great this community is. Whether you are looking for competition, self-defense, mental-physical self-cultivation, a place where your kid can learn discipline and burn off that extra energy, Worcester MMA/Team Abusado is what you are looking for.

Candy Lam: Love this place! The coaches and teammates make you feel like family! Everyone is very humble and always willing to teach you anything you ask!
