What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Matt Barker
"I visited here while on vacation and had a great time. The vacation pass is a great deal because you get a rashguard instead of just paying a standard drop in fee. The training was great, people were chill, and rolls were hard. Great place."
Emma Neal Heery
"I trained at this gym for well over a year (unfortunately have since moved) and I couldn’t be more impressed! The sense of community here is outstanding. The coach is not only knowledgeable but also super funny and easy to get along with, making every class enjoyable while still pushing you to improve. The gym itself is spotless, which is always a huge plus. There’s a strong women’s team that’s incredibly close-knit, and it’s great to see such a positive, empowering atmosphere. Whether you’re looking to compete or just get better, this is the perfect place to train. I couldn’t be more great full for my experience at this gym and can not wait to come back because I have so much love for it. They also prioritize recovery with an ice bath, a sauna, and occasional visits from physical therapist, massage therapists and more for some extra charge."
Jason Dyer
"I started training with Peter when he ran 10th Planet Royal Oak in Michigan just before covid started. I was looking for a team atmosphere and to compete in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He quickly became one of my best friends and a huge influence in my life on and off of the mats. He inspired me to begin running and since then I’ve run 7 half marathons and have gotten in the best shape of my life. When 10th Planet St Pete was finished I didn’t hesitate to move to St Petersburg and train full time under him. He has honestly changed the trajectory of my life and I am super grateful for him! I’ve met a bunch of amazing people training here and the facility is top notch. If you are looking to change your life for the better look no further. I’ll see you on the mats!"
Josh Peterson
"Hands down best martial arts gym around. Peter and Sara do a INCREDIBLE job making you feel welcomed. Everybody is friendly and I’ve learned so much! I highly recommend learning and training here no matter what your age/experience. Best facility around, with state of the art equipment. They literally have a sauna and cold plunge fully functioning and accessible INCLUDED. Classes are all the time so you can work around your schedule. I know it can be pretty nerve racking taking the first step to learning Jiu-Jitsu but there is absolutely no reason to be scared or nervous at 10th Planet Saint Petersburg. Hope to see you soon. PS- it’s VERY reasonable compared to EVERYTHING you get. World class coaching. World class people. -Josh"
