I am 43 yrs old and have been training at AFS for a year now, and could not ask for a better place to learn Martial Arts and I live in London which is 53 miles away. They teach 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai. Everyone of the instructors are very professional and have a vast knowledge of what they teach and will always go out of there way to help you any way they can. I highly recommend AFS Academy to anyone.

I first trained AFS when I was in college. I have some of my best memories there. The coach is legit, great training partners. The training is the best I've ever experienced, excellent with kids. I live two hours away and it is worth the drive!

Enjoy this place and the people involved a lot! And they never make you feel discouraged. Everyone pushes each other in a great way. Really wish I could take AFS academy with me around the world.

If your looking for a perfect nonjudgemental challenging core workout Gina's DDP YOGA class is for you. She encourages each and every participant to get the most out of their workout. Very professional and welcoming.

A great gym and a very welcoming environment. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable in a variety of areas of fitness, allowing me to not only improve my jiu jitsu but to become a better overall athlete.

I had the privilege of attending a seminar where Scott Elliott was invited to instruct. I came with a group of two brown belts, a purple belt, and another white belt. We were all so impressed by his technique and teaching style that we booked a private group session with him. Can not say enough positive things, all of us took away so much from his lesson and we look forward to making the trip up to Richmond to train with him some more! Scott, come to Mobile!

I had a fantastic experience here at the recent Ajarn Chai Muay Thai seminar. The staff and instructors were great! I came from hours away and was treated like family. I highly recommend AFS Academy.

Super people!!!! Great with my kids.

Great people and awesome training! Recommending it to all my friends

Great instructors to train with.

I came into town to visit family for the holiday and this gym was very welcoming to letting me train with them. I definitely recommend anyone visiting or in the area to go to this gym. They have very friendly staff and team mates. Not only were they friendly, but their members and staff were very knowledgeable and very involved with the MMA scene in the area. I had a great time training, sparring, and talking with them. I will definitely come back next time I am in town! Thanks Team AFS/10th Planet!

I took a class at EKU taught by Scott and it was fantastic. If he can make a classroom fun, I'm willing to bet the gym is incredible.

Great people. Enjoyed the time we had at the tournament!

Great facility and awesome people to train with! Highly qualified coaches and training partners! Best gym around!

I was only able to visit Richmond for one day, but training at this gym almost made me want to move to Kentucky! The folks at this gym are some of the friendliest you'll meet, with badass fighting skills to boot. Scott is a great instructor, and I learned a lot from everyone when I was there. If I lived in Kentucky, this is where I'd train. Looking forward to coming back someday!

I've trained at many different gyms, in Kentucky and Massachusetts, and none match what AFS brings to the table. Everyone is very respectful, humble, and have very much of a team mindset where they are willing to help everyone get better. The coach, Scott Elliot, is a great man and very skilled, and that skill shows through the entire team there at AFS. I could go on and on about this place, but if you are looking for a place to train, I definitely recommend AFS.

Our 5 year old daughter as well as my husband were lucky enough to be able to train with Coaches Scott, Gina and Adam when we lived in Berea for 3 months. This is an amazing program and one of the biggest reasons we were sad to leave the area!

I trained here years ago as a student in college. I learned as much about a good way to live life as I did about martial arts. The training is the best I've ever seen, and haven't found a place of similar quality all over the country. The youth programs are top shelf, teaching our kids how to be upstanding and confident adults with characteristics like integrity, confidence, and respect. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking to take martial arts seriously, self defense, or just wanting to get healthy.
