ATT as it’s commonly referred to has trained and developed over 67 fighters in the largest Mixed Martial Arts (“MMA”) organizations such as the UFC (“Ultimate Fighting Championship”), WEC, Strikeforce, Bellator, PRIDE, K-1, DREAMS and Sengoku.
That same knowledge, born out of hard work, perseverance, and dedication honed from our professional MMA fight team, has been passed down to our students who train in MMA, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (“BJJ”), Submission Grappling, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Boxing, Wrestling, Kids MMA, Women’s Fitness, and Self-Defense.
Our lineage can be traced back to the legendary Carlson Gracie where his vision, open-mind, and trademark aggressive, attacking style have greatly influenced us.
We bring all of this knowledge to our students where we instruct and train beginners, advanced, kids and adults all with the same desire to help you achieve your goals.
ATTENTION!
Not all MMA gyms are the same!
Unfortunately there are more “wannabies” then there are real gyms. “wannabie” gyms are fly by night instructors who teach kickboxing and call it authentic muay thai. “wannabie” gyms are owners and instructors who try to sell you that they are tough guys who are undefeated on the streets so training with them will make you tough also! “wannabie” gyms are karate dojos offering “MMA Programs”.
When you visit a gym ask them if they have:
Certified Krus in Muay Thai
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belts
All American Wrestlers
Golden Glove Boxers
Muay Thai Champions
MMA Champions
Boxing Champions
BJJ Champions
WHY?
BECAUSE WE HAVE ALL OF THE ABOVE!
American Top Team of Franklin Square MMA vs. “Wannabies”
|
No MMA Ranking system -, We are the only gym in New York with a Mixed Martial Arts ranking system. Many gyms that advertise “MMA” are Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu schools that throw punches and kicks once in a while – and promote through their kimono BJJ ranking system… The BJJ ranking system has been known for years to have a very poor wrestling and striking curriculum… so if they are claiming to be qualified in MMA based solely on their BJJ rank… ask them who coached them in kickboxing and what was their credentials… ask them who they learned how to wrestle from – if they say another BJJ person, this doesn’t leave them off the hook!
Learn Safely- American Top Team Mixed Martial Arts training program has rules and etiquette in place to ensure the safety of all its students. Learning MMA doesn’t mean you have “Go Hard!” or survive a beat down, these teaching practices are used by inexperienced trainers. The safety of our students is most important to us; we will provide you with excellent technique, and an amazing workout in a manner that is safe to all students. Our goal is to make sure no one gets injured and keep returning to class to learn more and more. When students have reached a certain level of conditioning and skill they are more than welcome to attend supervised sparring sessions that will allow them to get real world expiree while learning at the same time. No Safety- Many MMA schools have this misconception that the only way to learn how to fight is to put on boxing gloves and swing for the fences! This is not true… and actually can be counter-productive, besides dangerous. Many gyms also lack the technique to spar with control and spar hard to compensate for their lack of technique. Brawling during training proves nothing and only hinders the learning process and injures people. If you really want to brawl, save it for the street or in the cage.World Class Champions- Franklin Square MMA Academy has produced several Champions in Muay Thai Kickboxing, Jiu-Jitsu and Mixed martial Arts. Our academy has won 97% of its fights, and tournaments. WHY? Our student’s success in competition if they choose to is our up most responsibility. Competitor’s weather amateur or professional beginner or expert are all treated and attended to as if they are all professionals. Every competitor is prepared just like a professional with a detailed schedule of training, free private lessons with trainers, and free sessions with a conditioning trainer. With vast knowledge is conditioning and weight cutting or trainers are able to created competitors who are the strongest and fastest in their division. With expert researching we are able to formulate iron clad game plans to bring our competitors to victory. Excellent coaching during the fight allows our trainer’s help competitors make adjustments to win the fight. Our fighters have excellent discipline and commitment, traits fostered by our system which result in WINS. Are you looking to compete? Join a Team that wants you to win not just fight!Losing team- Unfortunately because of lack of training, conditioning, guidance and commitment many schools fail in competition. Every Academy wants to win but very few possess the right formula for winning. And with new academies trying to establish their pride many of their students are forced into competition way before they are ready, usually resulting in a lose that can end their passion for the sport. Lack of researching, game plan formulating, and cage side coaching leaves many of these fighters on their own which sadly results in a losing. With no system of winning in place it’s hard for fighters in these academies to ever excel.30 DAY FREE TRIAL-If all of this information on this Web page isn’t enough to convince you that we are the #1 source for MMA on Long Island, we will give you 30 Days to see it for yourself! No other academy would dare do this, but we are so confident that you will be impressed with our facility, staff, students, and classes that we will actually let you train for 30 DAYS for FREE! But that’s not all if you have no to little experience we will give you a FREE private lesson to start your trial off. Still don’t think it’s enough? We will also give you a FREE consultation with our MMA consultant to discuss with you what your goals are why that’s your goal and formulate a schedule and game plan to help you achieve that!One Class maybe two if your lucky- Most gyms are insecure that you won’t sign up if you take their class, now if they don’t want you to take the class because they feel you won’t sign up then is that place for you? Ask them for a month of Free Training and they will laugh in your face! WHY? Because your only important to them if you pay. Most schools just want to throw you in classes and drag you thru training without caring why you even wanted to do Martial Arts. Don’t be a member of a gym that no one knows be a Member of the Biggest Mixed martial Arts TEAM in the WORLD!

“I want to learn Mixed Martial Arts but I need to get in shape first before I start”
WRONG! Why hesitate on what you always wanted to do? You don’t need to be in shape to start training in Mixed Martial Arts. Training alone will help your burn thousands of calories and get you back in shape while you learn legitimate technique and skills. Our Consultants will work with you to formulate a program that will best suite your goals!
“I’m a Professional and I don’t want to leave the gym with black eyes and a busted lip!”
Our classes are designed to allow everyone to participate in a safe controlled manner, so that you can learn technique, get a workout in, and let some stress out while never leaving the gym injured or scared. Our classes are separated into different levels of contact so students can control their exposure from no contact pad work out to full contact sparring. No student is ever forced to do more than they can but all will be pushed to levels they never seen achievable.
“I always wanted to do Mixed Martial Arts but I’m too old”
No one is ever too old to participate in Martial Arts training, the only thing that changes is the level of intensity and the amount of contact both which can be controlled by you while training at our facility. We have many students well into their 50’s that still participate weekly in our Muay Thai Kickboxing program. It’s not just for fighting: new research published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine shows that people in their 40′s and 50′s who regularly practice martial arts demonstrate astounding levels of physical fitness in comparison to people the same age who don’t exercise at all. The study subjects who practiced martial arts had 12% less body fat, were able to do twice as many sit-ups, had enhanced flexibility and leg strength, demonstrated a stronger immune system and showed greatly improved balance.
“I’m a teenager looking to train Mixed Martial Arts how do I convince my parents that it’s safe?”
There is no need to convince your parents, only educating your parents on the importance of martial arts training and how safe it really is. Its normal for people to see MMA as violent because of its competition aspect, However Mixed Martial Arts training is extremely safe and fun. What you see in competition is just that competition, but the training aspect in unparalled anywhere in the sports field. Safety is our number one goal! We have created an environment where students can learn effective techniques, how to control those techniques, get in amazing shape and combat the “childhood obesity crisis” and build team and leadership qualities thru mentorship programs in the gym. For any questions please contact one of our consultants with any further questions
“I’m only interested in Boxing do you offer that?”
We have a great and unique boxing program! Why? Because at a boxing gym you pay dues to the gym every month to work out on your own, hitting the bag, jumping rope, doing shadow boxing, and if you want you can pay extra to have a trainer hold mitts for you and give you some guidance. Here at American Top Team you can do all of that plus take two of our Hour Long classes in Boxing where you will receive mitt work, drilling, and guidance from instructors. Don’t get lost in the gym be part of a Team!

Beatrice Fiedorowicz has been involved in Muay Thai for over 13 years and she was also fortunate to have trained with Edge Brown while he was still in New York City. Beatrice was one of the training partners to the amateur fighters back then and provided analysis on key strengths and weaknesses to the fighters and other students via commentary, film footage or drill/pad
work reinforcement. These observations would lead to increased involvement on the coaching side along with the business savvy she naturally has and uses. Beatrice went to Thailand along with Rob Rogan to train at the Sor. Vorapin
camp and hone her technical skills. She loves teaching beginners and can break down technique so it is understandable and enjoyable to learn from any perspective. Students and fighters appreciate her “no-nonsense and no BS policy” when it comes to training, teaching and learning. She’s tough – she will tell it like it is without holding back, but she is also very
generous, insightful and patient with the students and fighters. Bea also traveled to Las Vegas and became a certified Kru under Grand Master Toddy and the MTIA. She holds the important recognition as being the second woman Kru in the USA to be certified by Grand Master Toddy himself, and she is also the first woman in the Northeast Region to hold this title bestowed by Grand Master Toddy.
