SUCCESSFUL STORIES
I have been going to Hicks MMA for eight months and I couldn't be happier. When I started with Coach Hicks, I was four months post partum and had 15lbs that I could not shake. With careful monitoring from Coach Hicks, I have lost the weight, gotten stronger, and I'm in better shape than before I had my baby, all while improving on my BJJ journey and becoming part of an MMA family. I have gone to different gyms around the Carrollton area to train (in boxing and BJJ) and not one measures up to Hicks MMA for the level of skill and professionalism you will experience.
Coach Hicks takes the time to get to know each of his students and makes sure they get the attention each of them need in order to increase their skill set. He makes class fun and is always encouraging. Hicks MMA is awesome and I highly recommend it!!
Coach Hicks does more than just have you hit a bag. He properly trains you for the experience you need both inside and outside the ring. You get treated like family, not just another fighter. From fighting advice to life advice, he's got something for everyone. Best experience I've had from an MMA coach.
