What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Jon Robinson
"Came here for lunch to get a quick workout in and Heath and his staff welcomed me with open arms and allowed me to train on a free trial no questions asked (after I signed a waiver) the students were professional and went easy on me since it was my first time training here. DO NOT COME HERE WITH AN EGO. Or do. Its up to you."
Hannah Thomas
"I cannot say better things about Acadiana jujitsu and staff! Waylon is 3 and very strong willed, he was struggling with following directions and just being still in general, the staff and coaches have help tremendously. After just 3 weeks we noticed a huge difference- he is a different child 2 months in. Yes, he’s still a 3 yr old rambunctious boy but, he has learned patience skill, self defense, and much more. We cannot say enough good things about “Jitsu”."
Meghan Spahr
"This place is great for my kie!! He loves and admires Coach Canaan and Coach Caden so much! great role models! they interact so well with the kids and teach the respect and determination."
Chuck Duncan
"A little over 2 yrs. ago, I was looking for motivation to stay fit and a way to keep learning new things. As I was driving home, I passed Acadiana Jiu Jitsu and stopped in with a question. "At 72 yoa, am I too old to take classes?" Heath Henry, the owner and a black belt said,"no. Try a free class and see, it's fun." Well, 2 yrs later, 10 lbs lighter, and feeling healthier, I'm still rolling multiple times a week. I also have made a lot of younger new friends. Heath has just expanded to a new facility in the same shopping center and it's super nice. There's something for everyone: kids, teenagers and adult classes in jiu jitsu, yoga, and mixed martial arts. Yes, it's air conditioned and the instructors are excellent. Check it out."
