I joined Des Moines Mixed Martial Arts Academy recently, and am absolutely thrilled to be a part of team Porcelli. Owner, trainer, coach, and friend Anthony Porcelli is an experienced, motivational leader who has a knack for making me strive to do my best. The best part of being a member of team Porcelli is the atmosphere in the gym. It feels like family, and everyone does their best to support one another. I felt very welcome and right at home even on my first day there. If you are interested in becoming a champion, or just getting into shape, I recommend Mixed Martial Arts Academy; Team Porcelli! Located at 609 Euclid Ave. Des Moines IA, 50313. Phone# 515-371-4170.

This is hands down the best gym I know of. I am a military man and have been everywhere, no other gym compares. Leading this gym to achieve such a feat is owner and head coach Anthony Porcelli, a great friend, coach, mentor, tactician and much more. The things I’ve learned at this gym have continuously put me at the top of class in any gym I step into. Stand-up and Ground game. If you ever have the chance to train with Anthony, please don’t under appreciate the time you spend there. It is once in a life time opportunity that I think few realize tell it’s too late. Anthony will take you and give you all the tools you need to get to where you want to be, testing you constantly both physically and mentally. I miss Iowa because of this gym. Check them out and see for yourself.
