30 Days Free to Train like a UFC Fighter, Gain Confidence and Discipline, Get in Amazing Shape, and Join the #1 RATED BJJ and Mixed Martial Arts Team in Columbia Maryland!
WARNING! We are NOT…
- a franchise that hires freelance martial arts students to teach its classes
- a renamed Karate or traditional martial arts school
- a throw-on-the-gloves and beat-on-each-other-club for street fighters
- a big box gym that holds some “kickboxing” or “fight” classes
If you are looking for something like that, our school is probably NOT the place for you. On the other hand, if you want top-notch MMA, BJJ, and Muay Thai training (as proven in competition), a family-friendly team atmosphere (no meatheads), and a professional facility (9000 square feet – largest in the area), you need to try out a 30 Day Free Trial of any of our Mixed Martial Arts programs.
“I’ve Tried Them All – This is the Best!”
“When I Came Here, I Realized Why They Have a Really Good Reputation!”
Aung la N Sang is a professional MMA fighter who currently trains out of Crazy 88. He came from a predominantly No-Gi background and had lots of experience in MMA fights. He recently fought UFC veteran, Chris Price, and submitted him with a guillotine choke.
Aung la is training hard, improving his skills, and his athletic abilities. For the first time, Aung la has the benefits of a professional training environment including a 12-month strength & conditioning routine, access to top-level MMA training, and the opportunity to train full-time.
“There Is A Very Close Knit Family-like Atmosphere At The Gym.”
My name is Tim Spriggs and I am a member of Team Lloyd Irvin, and I have trained at Crazy 88 Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for three years. When I first looked for a place to train, I went online, called gyms, and asked people who trained. Through my research I was lucky enough to find a place close to my house that had a good reputation. The first day I walked in, I was given an one-on-one introductory course with an accomplished upper belt. In that short session, I was shown the basics of Jiu-Jitsu such as positions and submissions.
As soon as I started training at Crazy 88 I was treated like a part of the team, there is a very close knit family-like atmosphere at the gym. My teammates helped me in the process of progressing in the sport. I wasn’t beaten on every day and used as wrestling dummy, everyone tried to make each other better. I was helped in a lot of ways, for instance in getting in shape. I came into Jiu-Jitsu with decent physical ability, and was slight conditioned. But, over time I realized that to compete at an elite level, I needed to progress. I used to not be able to hold on to a rope, let alone climb it. I was put on a strength and conditioning program which I would do after class, and eventually, I was able to climb the rope at will.
The training at Crazy 88 is top notch. Julius Park is a great instructor with a bunch of experience. He’s been in the game for a long time and is one of the most knowledgeable instructors you can find, anywhere. Being affiliated with Lloyd Irvin exposes you to some of the best competitors in the world everyday. And we have very accomplished fighters come in for seminars, like Bruno Frazatto, Kenny Florian, and the Avellan Brothers. Team Lloyd Irvin is the best team in this part of the country; they weren’t named Grappler’s Quest Team of the Decade for nothing. The training I get here day in and day out makes competitions easy for me. When I talk to people at other schools about my experiences in the sport, accomplishments and things that go on at my school, and they are surprised and impressed. That’s how I know I am a part of something special, and it makes me proud to be a part of Crazy 88.

What is Crazy 88 Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?
Crazy 88 Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a 6000 sq. ft. Martial Arts facility located conveniently between Baltimore and Columbia Maryland. The school is part of the Team Lloyd Irvin Association – the Mid-Atlantic’s most successful MMA and Grappling Competition team. We specialize in teaching:
- Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) – Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art, combat sport and a form of self-defense that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themself against a bigger, stronger assailant by using leverage and proper technique — most notably by applying joint-locks and chokeholds to defeat the other person. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu can be trained for sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition or self-defense. More on Baltimore Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Classes.
- Muay Thai Kickboxing – Developed in Thailand, the art of Muay Thai aka “Thai Boxing” is the National Sport of Thailand and has already gained popularity and recognition in the US and internationally. There are five major components to Thai Boxing: (1) Punches, (2) Kicks, (3) Knees, (4) Elbows, and (5) Clinching. Students interested in concentrating on full contact stand-up techniques and looking to get in the best shape of their life should look no further than our highly effective Thai Kickboxing program. More on Baltimore Muay Thai Kickboxing Classes.
- Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) – Mixed Martial Arts is one of the fastest growing sports in the America. It is a combination of a variety of martial arts and allows fighters to use both striking and grappling techniques. It is sometimes referred to as “Ultimate Fighting” after the biggest MMA promotion in the World, the Ultimate Fighting Championship. More on our Baltimore MMA Classes.
- Womens Only Program – Our Womens Only Program offers training in both Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai Kickboxing – the perfect combination for self-defense and fitness. Women in these classes learn the same techniques that professional MMA fighters are using and in a friendly environment. More on our friendly Womens Only Classes.

However, the training is not limited to simply improving your child’s physical abilities and teaching her how to defend herself – it is an educational / Black Belt program that will give your child the life skills necessary to succeed (discipline, goal-setting, leadership).
