Lewisville ISD
North Texas MMA has been an approved external PE credit for Lewisville ISD students and homeschool students for years. Students earn the credit while learning something they keep for life.
The Kids and Teens programs both carry the LISD External PE approval. With classes at 4 pm and 5 pm every weekday, the schedule is built to sit after the school day rather than fight it.
Who you train under
Owner and Head Coach
Started in American kickboxing, Muay Thai and Jeet Kune Do in 1990, and began training under Carlos Machado in November 1995. He opened the Academy of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in 1998, one of the first schools in Texas teaching MMA to children and adults, and it became North Texas Mixed Martial Arts in 2007.
Coach
Wrestled at the University of Oklahoma and has stayed in wrestling instruction ever since, coaching collegiate, freestyle and Greco-Roman at high school and grade school level and producing many state champions. Blue belt under Tery Corkran.
Assistant Instructor
Over two decades in martial arts, training in striking since the age of 8, specialising in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and kickboxing. He also helps run day-to-day gym operations.
Coach
Training and competing for over 40 years. He began as an amateur boxer under his father Jay Sanchez at the 10th Street Gym in Dallas, then moved into professional kickboxing in the PKA and ISKA. He teaches boxing and kickboxing several days a week while working toward his purple belt.
Our philosophy
Serious students believe the martial arts are not about fighting, but living.
It is not mandatory to spar or grapple here, and everything is completed at your own pace. That matters on day one, when most people walk in nervous.
Most fights start on the feet, but police statistics indicate that over 90 percent of self-defense situations end up on the ground. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu covers all four ranges of fighting and teaches a student to control an opponent thoughtfully, without being harmed and without having to harm them.
For parents, that is the whole point: a child who can control a situation without resorting to hitting.
From head coach Tery Corkran
Masters athletes, typically those over 35, need tailored training and recovery for health and longevity.

Strength is the most important attribute of a martial artist.
