Reviews of Reaction MMA

I've been training at Reaction MMA for several years now, and have trained at many other schools both in and out of Kentucky. The quality of instruction and team atmosphere are what truly separate it from other gyms. Rob Nickerson has 17+ years of experience in the field and is passionate about passing his knowledge on to others.

The programs offered include Brazillian Jiujitsu, Muay Thai kickboxing, Western Boxing, and Wrestling. These programs are intense enough to prepare you for competition, help you lose weight, or enjoy a new pastime.

Programs for children from ages 4-17 as well as private lessons are available.

I couldnt recommend Reaction MMA enough as a place to train in a fun, safe environment.

I have been to many "MMA schools" across the nation, and have never seen an instructor that cares more, or interacts better with his students than Rob Nickerson. Reaction has steadily turned out fighter after fighter with insane skills and a gentleman first attitude. If you are training in KY this is the place to be. These guys are the real deal!

Reaction MMA is a mixed martial arts gym led by Coach Rob Nickerson, located just down the road from Lexington, Kentucky’s Fayette Mall. We are in an industrial park directly off Nicholasville Road after you pass Branden Crossing and before you get to Nicholasville, KY.

We are a serious gym where both adults and kids learn and train effective fight skills in jiu-jitsu, kickboxing, wrestling, boxing and MMA. Not all of our fighters compete, but many of them do. Reaction MMA has some of the most successful and top ranked pro and amateur MMA fighters in the state of Kentucky. We also have fighters who compete in various grappling competitions ( NAGA, Grappler’s Quest, OGC, EGO ), Muay Thai and kickboxing events ( IKF ), and Boxing competitions (AAU, Golden Gloves, Silver Gloves).

Our kids team is consistently one of the top teams at NAGA and other grappling events and we travel as a group to competitions regionally and nationally.
