We have been going to Clinch for over 5 years. We have 4 boys and currently 3 are enrolled and are 4th will be as soon as he turns 4. This academy is not only amazing at teaching our children jujitsu but life long skills!
I have been going to Clinch Academy since 2013. It can be intimidating walking in to a martial arts studio when you have no experience or no idea what to expect. The staff at Clinch made it such a welcoming and warm experience. I started out taking bootcamp classes and then started BJJ in 2017. You won't meet a nicer community of people elsewhere.
Clinch Academy offers modern combat sports training with a traditional Budo values while living up to their motto: "Battle tested! Family approved!" Classes at the Clinch strike the perfect balance between challenging you physically and providing you with technical proficiency and what's even more important: the culture and leadership at the gym is exemplary, which unfortunately has become a rarity in today's martial arts industry.
If you live in the Frederick area, it's a no-brainer: This is the place for you to train!
Clinch academy offers a wide selection of options for children, youth, and adults with a core focus of health, fitness, discipline, dedication, and integrity. Definitely living up to the recommendation made by another instructor from Virginia, which speaks volumes!

I've now been at Clinch since Nov 2014. I'm halfway to my purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and attending 4-5 classes a week: mix between BJJ and workouts. Best place to train in Jiu Jitsu and keep in shape with great people and instructors.
Original Review 2014+
Can't say enough good things about the Clinch Academy. I am currently enrolled in their Title Fight Fitness. It is an ongoing HIIT workout program.
I had thought about joining CrossFit, but the schedule/timing didn't seem to work. Plus I wanted to ease back into a solid workout. Clinch was perfect. It is 3 days a week from 6:30-7:15am. It is the perfect workout before work!
It is the most challenging program I've ever done, but it is also quite addicting. I actually look forward to class.

As I write this, I've been there about 5 months. I have never felt better and I plan on continuing long-term!

Still enjoying the great workouts at Clinch. I also started their BJJ classes last November and really enjoy them as well. The training is top notch.

I have been with the clinch family for over 2 and half years now. I have nothing but good things to say the coaches and the other students, they are all eager to help, learn, and achieve your personal goals. When i travel all around the country i always try other gym american top team for instance in orlando and still i have yet to find a gym that overall has more avaliable then clinch academy
I've been attending various classes at the Clinch Academy since the beginning. Luke is a world class instructor, a loyal friend and all around good guy. The BJJ instruction is rigorous and deep, the fitness classes are fun yet tough, and the children's classes are an excellent way to help your kids learn self-discipline as well as fitness and self defense. Clinch is very careful to teach kids to not use their skill to bully others and that the best way to win a fight is by not fighting. Self control over oneself and one's words in order to avoid fights is the best way to go. I highly recommend you check out all that the Clinch Academy has to offer, for you and for the whole family!
Love this place.
This was my first introduction into martial arts and i wish i would have started sooner. I originally thought I would give jiu jitsu a try for a few months and probably get bored with it. Wrong.
For myself, Jiu jitsu has been one of the most exciting, humbling, exhausting, rewarding, inspiring and challenging endeavours. I now consider myself an addict.
I have enjoyed my entire experience with the clinch academy and recommend it to anyone who has an interest in perusing martial arts. I have made it a family rule that my son and especially my daughter take bjj.
To Luke and all the coaches at clinch, Thank you.
Went to Clinch Academy a few years ago and never got around to writing a review, but my brief 2-4 month experience was enjoyable, I learned a lot and the staff, the regulars and Luke himself were all very kind.
A much friendlier environment than Frederick Fight Club to say the least.
