Details: Mat Life has been training everyday warriors in the Alachua County community for more than 44 years. We’re proud to have a professional team of internationally-certified instructors, a supportive and passionate community, and a safe training environment where kids and adults alike can experience the life-long benefits of martial arts training, together. We encourage our members to become physically, mentally, and spiritually fit through developing self-discipline and proficiency in their training program. We believe that providing the highest quality of instruction, paired with a positive environment and a great community, is what makes Mat Life a platform for self development. We warn all of our new members – if you train here, you just might change your life! At Mat Life Training Center, our goal is to teach you or your children authentic martial arts. We offer training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Kickboxing, and Karate, as well as Energetic Arts such as Qigong and Tai Chi, Yoga, Acro-Tumbling, and Flow Arts. We believe that if you can improve physically on the mats, your life will improve emotionally and spiritually off of the mats. We offer a truly integrated family training center, and are home to Ring Ready Fitness and Warrior Wellness Collective as part of the Mat Life culture and facility offerings. While martial arts training is a physical sport, we believe in the mind-body-spirit practices that have made this type of training a staple in every culture around the world for thousands of years, and are honored to bring the heart of this type of training in its entirety and integrity to you in our training centers through our programs and family-focused environment. Mat Life is not your average gym or dojo. We are a multi-location, time-tested training academy that addresses the need for professional martial arts instruction, authentic self defense, transparent and supportive culture, servant leadership, and fun!
