My name is Alex and I’m the owner & founder of the Midwest Training Center mixed martial arts gym in Schaumburg, IL. I am a 2nd degree Black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Juliano Prado (Total MMA Studios, Brazilian Top Team).
Many people know us from our success with our amateur & professional fighters, but that’s not the only thing going on at our great gym.
I’m proud of the fact that teammates of all skill levels join our gym. They each join for their own reason. Our coaches and other teammates work together to help everyone them meet their fitness, self-defense and personal goals.
It’s time to invest in yourself.
Start a healthy habit.
Become the you that you have always wanted to be.
Join our team today and crush your goals!
– Alex Trujillo (your next coach)
No. We do have a very successful “fight team” for teammates that want to fight at an amateur & professional level, but the majority of our teammates are not pursuing a fight career.
Absolutely! Don’t let the “Mixed Martial Arts” phrase scare you off. We welcome all skill and fitness levels for our new teammates. Our coaches & teammates want to help you achieve your goals! We have many teammates that are also on their own fitness journey and you’ll be able to help them achieve their goals as well. Another bonus of joining our gym is that you’ll learn important self-defense skills in a variety of classes. Together we make a great team!
Great news, we don’t like it either! 🙂 The vast majority of our training is instructor led & is in a safe environment. We don’t ask teammates to spar unless they want to. Most of our training involves learning new techniques & practicing them by hitting (or holding) the pads with teammates of equal skill level.
One thing that surprises new teammates is the amount of calories burned and sweat that you’ll experience with our training sessions. Our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, Boxing and Wrestling classes will help you get back in shape in a fun and efficient way.
“Midwest Training Center gave me the skills and the confidence to compete at the highest levels of mixed martial arts. I believe their training system, staff, and facility are world class and was instrumental in building my career.”
“I’ve known Alex for a while, we used to train together way back in the day. He has some really solid skills. All his guys are very tough. I think any fighter would be lucky to have a guy like him in their corner.”
“Alex is the most successful Jiu-Jitsu black belt instructor that I have graduated working in MMA today. His team and their success in Mixed Martial Arts are incredible for such a young coach! I am very proud and honored to have him as one of my Black Belts under Brazilian Top Team’s flag. His understanding of the game and attention to transitions between striking, wrestling and Jiu-Jitsu are the secret to his style of coaching.”
“Since joining MTC I’m a completely different fighter, mentally, physically & emotionally. I’m more calm in the cage. I’m very aware of what’s going on in the situation. I can hear my coaches and I love it.”
“My first impression when I came to MTC was just how amazing Coach Al was. He’s a down to earth guy and made me feel welcome. The thing I like about MTC the most is the atmosphere. The guys leave their egos at the door. We come in here, we get to learn in a fun, family, atmosphere.”
“The Midwest Training Center is more than just a gym, its a family. The staff and training partners there are a great group of guys! From my first amateur fight all the way up to my UFC debut, training at MTC was what made it all possible!”
“My first impression when I came here is that this is a big gym. It’s a whole new world and a whole new level of training and I was ready for it. I’m proud of how much I’ve improved here. At first I felt like my dreams weren’t within my reach but now they are and I’m excited about what’s to come.”
