What Our Students Say

Jessica Kirkland

"I’ve been going here for 2 months now and I absolutely love it! Such a great environment and amazing coaches that really put in the work to help you."

Kai Mata

"I know there have been a lot of accusations thrown around about this place but before I moved, this is the place I would be at several times a week for HOURS. I can say with my entire chest as a woman that there is no abuse taking place here. I was welcomed with open arms by the owner, have been alone with the owner and other members, and I have been SAFE and loved and welcomed. This will always be a place where I made good memories and new friendships. The owner is a good person. We still keep in touch! Whatever you’re hearing about this gym is untrue if it’s negative. I wouldn’t be who I am today without this gym and its members. Send your kids here. Send yourself here. You’ll be better off!! I’ve lost weight, gained muscle, and important self defense skills and even a few effective offense skills from this gym/dojo. Everyone is respectful and happy. We all leave hours after class ends because we genuinely enjoy each others company and what we have learned from class. Jared is kind hearted and has often accepted my late payments. He’s not doing this for the money. He’s got passion for teaching people how to utilize their body in the most efficient way against any opponent. I never felt out of place. I hope anyone who sees this review feels motivated to go here 💕"

Latisha Goff

"Great environment. Coaches really strive to help you grow and learn. Love the family environment. I would recommend adults and children’s"

Jerry Ladnier

"At 56 I decided that I needed to get back in shape. I wanted to learn something while I exercise so I figured why not Jiu-jitsu. It didn't take long for me to get into the action. After we warmed up and the coaches tought us a few moves they announced that it was "time to roll". I didn't know what that was but I soon found myself squared off with a 14 year old girl and was humbled quickly. She has a few years experience and it didn't take me long to learn how to tap out. Lol I have been at it for a couple of months now and it is by far the most fun I have ever had getting in shape. I'm getting better every week and the coaches are incredible. If you are looking for a way to get in shape and have fun I highly recommend you stop by and join us. The first night is free."
