Chasing the 8
"Was in brownwood for the weekend vacation, was able to attend a morning an open mat though the morning class was not what I was expecting was still fun. The owner was very knowledgeable about combative a was able to work with me on stuff I have never down his patience was appreciated. The open mat that I was able to attend was on the smaller side but we got some good rolls in. If you are in the area passing through go check it out."
Joseph Hemphill
"This is the 3rd gym I’ve done research into in the area and it is by far the cheapest and offers teaching in environment small enough for each individual to be given detailed instruction but has enough athletes to give great challenge and practice. I think anyone looking to learn martial arts in this areas Should start here."
The Lewis Family
"We were visiting family in Brownwood and brought our 10 year old daughter for a workout. The coaching was excellent and everyone was friendly including the parents. Great experience for our daughter, she learned 2 new takedowns and we’ll come back when we visit again."
Michael Bambarger
"18 year military vet, 9 year Brazilian jiujitsu brown belt. I’ve traveled and trained at a lot of places over the years and if you are going through or near Brownwood, you need to make the time to train with Wes. If you live near Brownwood, you should definitely train at this location. Wes has a very practical and profound outlook on Brazilian jiujitsu. I personally learned several things in my two classes and will definitely add them to my toolbox. Thank you, ShadowHouse South and look forward to seeing you again! -Bam"
