Steven Barber
"Great instruction from extremely knowledgeable staff. Comradery amongst the members in a welcoming environment. Awesome programs in several martial arts disciplines for kids, women, and men."
Joy Barber
"Mad Science is a fantastic gym for Judo, BJJ and kickboxing. There is plenty of mat space with several separate areas for various needs. Ted is a wonderful instructor with a wealth of knowledge. Both my husband and myself have been training there for almost two years. The cultural is respectful and supportive of all levels of skill, age and gender. Ladies don’t be afraid to come and give these sports a try!"
Peter Green
"Nice, big training space with easy parking. Ted is a highly experienced and generous instructor focused on deep fundamentals -- old school angular jiu jitsu -- which is an approach that I respect and appreciate."
David Startup
"I started at Mad Science as a new bjj white belt at age 46. Six years later and I'm still there, about 5 days a week. Ted, the head coach, is a great person and a top level instructor. He has cultivated a warm and friendly culture that inspires people to want to show up and learn. My young son does the kids' classes and loves it. If you live in the greater Knoxville area, check it out and you'll be glad you did. I love my Mad Science family!"
