I have been going for 3 or 4 weeks now and the fact I am already losing weight and my skills are advancing is awesome. Best staff and students around. I am proud to be a student and representative of AFS!

March 11, 2015I 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 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 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.

August 8, 2017AFS and Scott Elliot literally changed my life a few years ago. If either an individual or a family wants to invest a little time they will become part of something that they will take into their futures and give them a major hand up for the rest of their lives...

October 7, 2018I 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.
