Reviews of Integrated Fighting Arts Academy
"I have been training at IFA for the last 2 years taking the boxing/Muay Thai, Filipino Kali, and conditioning classes. There are plenty of gyms in Austin but IFA is the best. Coach Frank Benn is the most experienced fight instructor in this city. No one can match his multidisciplinary experience nor his teaching style. Instead of just showing a technique to replicate, Coach Benn explains how that technique fits into a combat system allowing every student to develop their own personal style with a toolbox full of practical skills. The more you put in the more you will get out; if you demonstrate serious intent, Coach Benn will take a vested interest in your progress with customized feedback. Just as important as a good coach is the gym community. The other students are friendly, diverse, and supportive. Senior students are welcoming and always willing to help. There are no bullies or ego-driven brawlers here; sparring is done respectfully and safely so that everyone regardless of skill can practice and learn. In my time here I've made some lifelong friends who've helped me accomplish more than I thought I was capable of. If you are serious about learning how to fight, I promise you won't find a better place than IFA."
"Frank Benn (Coach) has made a very welcoming environment for new folks like myself. I’ve always wanted to train but have limited myself because of the fear of unknown. However, once I walked in I felt at home and welcomed. The community who shares the space were all super friendly, supportive, and just generally good people."
"This is the greatest mixed martial arts gym of all time. Coach Frank Benn genuinely cares about his students. You can actually tell that he dedicates his life to combat sports and real life combat as is. The students here are also amazing, very friendly, kind, and always want to help you improve. Would infinitely recommend this gym if you are looking to learn how to fight and compete in combat sports such as MMA or boxing. You'll have the greatest coach of all time and a solid team to train with."
"After sampling the Muay Thai and Kali classes, I began training at IFA in April 2023. I think physical training is one of the very few things in life where consistent effort guarantees results. At IFA, you are in full control of your own success. Coach Frank is a highly knowledgeable, no-nonsense martial artist with decades of experience. His coaching style is direct, supportive, and technique-focused. You can absolutely train here just for fitness; however, if you're serious about honing techniques and learning the science of fighting, IFA has the rigor and the expertise. The curriculum covers boxing, Muay Thai, Filipino Kali (my favorite), women's fight class, BJJ, wrestling, and combat conditioning. It's a rather unique and comprehensive mix, taking you from grappling, to striking, to weaponry. I've trained at an excellent multidisciplinary martial arts school before moving to Austin, and know how difficult it was to find something similar. IFA is truly a standout. The students I've met here are friendly, encouraging, and humble. Everyone seems to genuinely enjoy training and each other’s presence. Senior students are always happy to offer tips and meet you where you are. I enjoy the socializing as much as the learning; IFA helped me find a warm community and make good friends (that I often hang out with outside of training) in a new city. Price wise, the monthly cost depends on 3 factors: commitment period, number of programs, and form of payment. For example, signing up for 12 months, 3 programs, and credit card autopay would be ~$200/month as of spring 2023. Gear costs extra, but if you already own wraps, gloves, shin guards and such, be sure to check with coach Frank if they meet his requirements. Sure, it's more substantial than a YMCA or a chain kickboxing gym membership, but your experience here will be one-of-a-kind. If you're on the fence, just call/email coach and try a class. A growth mindset and respect (for the people and for the training facility) are all you need to thrive at IFA."
"I've been training here almost 4 months and I highly recommend IFA to anybody interested in learning not only martial arts but also confidence, fitness, and discipline. There is a wide range of skills to train in: striking (boxing & muay thai), grappling (jiu jitsu & wrestling), MMA, and more. Coach Benn has a deep well of knowledge and is an excellent teacher. He has a created a safe but also challenging environment that has really allowed me to grow and learn. What sets IFA apart from other gyms is the culture and vibe. The other students are incredibly welcoming and helpful--its a truly great community. Experienced students are always happy to help you out and it genuinely feels like everybody is there to get better together. If you're experienced fighter or just starting out, definitely try out a couple classes--you will not be disappointed."
