  • How often should I train?

    Brand New Students-How much should I train? This is one of the most common questions we get and one of the hardest to answer perfectly! A lot of variables can come in to play here, but the big ones are age, fitness, schedule, and goals! I think most people, athletes or not should focus on 2-3 classes at the start to build consistency, we want your journey to be for forever and often it is a lot easier to train at 70-80% for a long time rather than burnout at 100% quickly! The nice part about this approach is your percentage will change overtime as you get accustomed to training and movement! As you learn to train the right way, be a good partner, and adjust your intensity, ....

  • Basic hygiene for training!

    Basic hygiene for training! One of the things about training in combat sports is that there is always close contact with one another and with that we need to make sure we are good teammates! Below is a list of the major things before coming to training and after you are done! We clean the mats and borrowed gear every day, multiple times a day, but we can’t take care of your hygiene for you! Pre-Training Make sure you have clean equipment- Fresh dry gi’s, sanitized hand wraps, shin pads, gloves, shorts rash guards ect. Often this is the number 1 spread of bacteria! Cut and filed fingernails! One of the most common things we see are small cuts on the hands or ....

  • Should I compete?

    When should I compete? Should I compete!? We think competition can be a great means of advancing your skill set, but it isn’t necessary or required! Our main goal is to focus on your self-defense, physical health, mental health and make sure you are spending time in a fun environment overall! Competition whether it be in Jiu Jitsu, Boxing, or Muay Thai can be an exciting way to increase your training with a focused goal.

If we must put a timeline, most people should ....

  • Building confidence in Kids through Jiu Jitsu, Boxing and Muay Thai- A different kind of defense first!

    Helping build confidence through kids in Jiu Jitsu, Boxing and Muay Thai! It’s been a common trend for many years that martial arts can help build physical fitness, confidence, and discipline from youth through adulthood. However, I think the philosophy is sometimes too structured to “If my child was in trouble, they could defend themselves". This is highly important for their safety, but one thing we really try to focus on in our Top Level Warriors program are two other self-defense options first before leading to our physical training. Verbal Conflict Resolution- What is the issue, What can be done, Who can I look to for help or guidance This is highly important ....

Creating Leaders in Indianapolis

Thomas Hood

When I first started looking for a place to train, a gym that prioritized technique was what I was searching for, and they do exactly that here. They break down techniques in small portions so people can actually learn the correct way to do it. If you're looking for a place that has credentials this is also the place for you. All of the coaches have a vast knowledge in their specialized fields. If you're just looking for a fun way to get in shape without being stuck on a hamster wheel, or mundanely picking up heavy objects and putting them down than their Muay Thai, Boxing, Bjj, or Wrestling classes will definitely get you in better shape than the average gym goer.

Derek Board

I have been going to Top Level for over a year and it is by far the best place I have ever trained. There are professional and knowledgeable coaches for Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu, and MMA. There is no place in Indiana where you can cross-train like this. If you are training to compete, stay in shape, or just because you love it, you will always be able to train at the desired intensity for you. I definitely recommend the week trial to see for yourself!

Seth Williams

I started a week ago and this place is addictive. The Boxing and Muay Thai instructors are really cool dudes! The environment is incredible, positive, and focused on meeting your needs. Great for the person looking to learn how to fight like a professional and develop a healthy lifestyle. I was incredibly nervous the first day I went but I am more than glad I signed up!
