Testimonials

I've been training martial arts 25 yrs and have been training MMA with many of the world's best fighters for the past 14 years. I feel training with Antoni Hardonk at Dynamix can elevate my game, so I am sure that it could elevate yours whether a beginner or advanced practitioner. He is a caring instructor and is very giving of his knowledge which is not always the case. If you are anywhere in Southern California, you will want to go check out Dynamix Martial Arts in beautiful Santa Monica. After training, grab some lunch at the 3rd Street Prominade and then go take a relaxing look out into the ocean as I do. I highly recommend it.

Ive visited many many famous mma gyms in the states and can guarantee you that the level of technical instructions doesnt get better. Its a nice , relaxed atmosphere also which is extremely important to perform your best. The coaches are really accessible and you can ask them anything. The striking is by a K1 level striker (antoni hardonk) and his style is different from most gyms. Train here for a few months and go spar with fighters from more orthodox muay thai gyms and you will understand why the dutch style is superior. Antoni just knows his stuff and can see your mistakes and strengths in seconds. The jiu jitsu is also phenomenal. I have visited many many gyms and according to me Henry Akins is the best grappling instructor in the world. Many coaches have impressive records but they cannot transfer their knowledge to you effectively. Henry doesnt just show you techniques but he shows you the why and how of every single technique and is the most detailed instructor ever. He didnt teach me anything fancy he just taught me how to make the basics work. You understand why Rickson was the best after u train with Henry (he has a black belt from rickson Gracie).Both coaches have the ultimate knowledge not only on techniques but the whole philosophy of fighting from progression, plateauing, dealing with frustration etc. I had really frustrating days but the coaches were extremely encouraging. I recomend this gym to everyone other than someone who I may fight later on!

I've been training MMA for 15+ years and can't say enough good things about DynamixMMA! This is the best place to improve your game, period.

Antoni and Henry (the striking and grappling coaches, resp.) are well sought-out by pros and aspiring pros alike--but beginners will quickly feel at home here as well, due to the respectful, open environment.

Training is very professional and well-organized, and revolves around light combat drills, one-on-one sparring, and personal instruction.

All-in-all, stop by if you want to learn the world's most effective fighting fighting systems from some of the best instructors around.
