Yes there is!

There is a very new martial arts training center that has recently set up across the street, south of the Superstore parking lot. It is not affiliated with BAMMA nor Kirin. It is easy to see their big white sign on the building. I am sorry, I don't remember the full name offhand, but it is "A (another letter) Training Center."
We recently talked to them and they were very informative. They are currently offering a number of choices of martial arts (Capoeira, Jiu jitsu, Muay Thai, MMA) and wish to expand their offerings in the future. It sounds as though they are very competitive minded. The instructors sound good, well qualified to teach their respective martial arts, and are quite approachable. Some have been in Brandon for a bit, and one is recently from Brazil. They expect respect and hard work from their students. They will be offering kids classes, and it sounds like adult/combined classes as well. I think they are/will meet a few times per week.
They will be at the kids sign up day at the mall this weekend if you want to speak with them. I think I recently saw something posted on the door...perhaps class hours? I think they meet Mon, Wed, and Friday.
I would encourage you to stop by & check them out. It sounds like a somewhat new & a positive direction for martial arts in Brandon.
