    Where to begin...This man I speak of, @[1332422830:2048:Travis Tooke], is more than a professor of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He is BJJ-jenius! He's thechnique is inhuman, almost like he is part panther...like some sort of panther-person! Don't let his calm and laid back demeanor fool you, he's just waiting to ensnare within is vicious hooks. He is a wise man as well as a strong one. "He's got brains and brawn. Total package"-anonymous If your looking for a great teacher, mentor, coach, and friend. He's the one for you. So inclusive and a good listener, he respects you as soon as you walk in the door , and is kind to a tee. He understands what you are looking for and aims to get where you need to go, and if he can't get you there, he will try with every fiber of his being to get you close it. He never gives up. Plain and simple, I wouldn't go to anyone we else. It's been a while since I've trained, but I know that if I do get back in there. He'll be the one I trust in my corner. Thanks Professor.

    Team Tooke MMA is the best Martial Arts school you'll find in Houston and the surrounding areas. You can look for a better gym, but you won't find it. Travis runs an amazing school and has somehow seemed to of find the best coaches for each sport that he offers. Everyone Travis has in a coaching posission at the club really know their stuff above and beyond the level you could ask for. Judo is my personal sport of choice, but I can cross train in BJJ or kick boxing whenever I have the desire to. Team Tooke is not only a great place for training, but also has a great atmusphere and is more than welcoming for everyone and there is always someone willing to help. So long story short, Travis has created by far the best place to train for MMA and/or just to get in killer shape.

    This is the PERFECT recommendation for Travis by way of my cousin Alex Gotay "Travis is a phenomenal person, Professor, and Martial Artist. He has a wealth of knowledge that stems from his dynamic love for Brazilian Jiu- Jitsu. He is more than competent at all levels of BJJ, and is open to share his knowledge with all who meet his enthusiasm. Travis has an uncanny way of teaching and passing his knowledge on to his students, and all those interested in learning. It is no doubt that the sport of BJJ will continue to further under someone like Travis. It would benefit all those whom are looking to grow as a Martial Artist to visit Team Tooke". He is the true definition of a friend, mentor and a friend that you can depend on!

    Team Tooke is the Best MMA gym in Houston. They have a group of world class coaches. If you are looking to compete at a high level in Boxing, Kick Boxing, Judo, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, or MMA this is the place for you. If you just want to train to lose weight, have fun, and pick up some self defense then this is also the place for you. The gym is full of friendly people who are always polite and willing to help you achieve your goals whatever they may be. Travis is a great BJJ coach there is absolutely no question. I think it also needs to be said that he is a great motivator as well. He is always there to answer questions outside of class about nutrition, or tournament rules or whatever you want to know. Travis runs great gyms just come in and see, you will not be disappointed.

    Travis is one the most awesome people you will meet. Aside from being a good teacher he is also a great competitor wich is rare. In the past 33months my technique has excelled from his teaching and corrections and from the help of having a World Class Judo Club in the same facility. Judo coahces who have helped me Harrry Doherty, John "The Lawyer" and Mauro Lana. Besides where else in Houston would you get to train with a Silver Medalist (Ernesto Perez) in Judo who is the Judo instructor for Judo! Thanks you Travis!

    First of all, Professor Travis Tooke is a crafty master technician of Brazilian Jui Jitsu, he is able to break down the technique to someone and explain it to you in a way that everyone can understand. I have learned so much since I have been training at Team Tooke MMA. Travis is also a very down to earth guy and a extremely hard worker; he has cardio for days. He is always thinking of ways to improve all of our Martial Arts programs as well.

    I have been around martial arts for many years and have gotten a chance to train with excellent coaches as well as bad coaches. Travis is by far on the top list of best instructors that I have ever worked with. If you are in the north side of Houston, Team Tooke MMA is by far the best school in the area. Do yourself a favor, and when looking for gyms go straight to him. When you are on the west side of Houston try out Revolution Dojo, just plain and simple.

    Coach @[1332422830:2048:Travis Tooke] has the best facility and hardest working team of coaches I have seen. Great location in NW Houston for grooming MMA Champions such as Coach @[7931192:2048:Andrew Craig]. All ages should benefit as did my boys and I. Check em out if you want to learn or improve your skills and keep on the watch for the next local title fight....chances are it's a Team Tooke student or an affiliated fighter.

    Travis is not only an outstanding instructor and competitor, but also a honest businessman and friend. The professional team he has fostered is top notch, and one will only excel around such amazing and well-trained athletes. Team Tooke will be a powerful name in martial arts for years to come!

    I would have never guessed that when I started training with @[1332422830:2048:Travis Tooke] I would be running my own school just a few years later. Travis is a well known and respected Brazilian Jiu Jitsu instructor and practitioner. If you're in the Houston/ Tomball area make sure you get a chance to stop by for a class or just to visit Team Tooke Headquarters. Thank You Travis!

    Travis is a great martial artist, coach, and person. His school is world class, and in addition to @[1332422830:2048:Travis Tooke], Team Tooke has great coaches and trainers such as @[1121537639:2048:Jace Pitre], @[100001014606817:2048:Jose Angel Llanas], and @[7931192:2048:Andrew Craig]... top notch trainers and people.

    There are black belts and then there are BLACK BELTS. Travis Tooke falls under the latter category. Without a doubt one of the best instructors I have ever had the priviledge of training under.

    I have had the good fortune of knowing Travis for more than a decade. Everyone in the Texas jiujitsu world knows that is a great jiujitsu practitioner and competitor, but it is his integrity and leadership make him a great coach and mentor. JB

    Mr. Tooke is a top of the food chain Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitor and instructor. I was able to implement the techniques he recently taught me to improve my game and teaching abilities. I will train with Mr. Tooke every chance I get. @[1378056291:2048:King Webb] BJJ Blackbelt Seguin Mixed Martial Arts.

    I love Team Tooke! Travis is the best coach I've had in any sport dating back to my middle school days. He always takes the time to help you understand different techniques and what not, all while having a sense of humor about it. AndGreatest/coolest coach I've ever had!

    Team Tooke attracts the highest level competitors - people who know that if you want to be the best, you have to train with the best. Travis (BJJ) and his colleagues Andrew (MMA) and Ernesto (Judo) have all "been there and done that". Training with them is a privilege.

    Travis Tooke is an amazing teacher and a good guy. He worked with my son for several years, and my son's skills improved at an amazing speed. Travis is dedicated, knowledgeable, smart and funny. He is a superb teacher for all ages and skill levels. And, he handles nervous moms quite well.
