What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Daniel Cyrus
"Been training here for a good while now, my children have spent a lot of time in there life on these mats. My baby took some of her first steps in this place. The skill and drive in this place has made me a better man. Wayne Knudson and the coaches who have become high rank jiu jitsu practitioners and competitors in this place give all they got to help the people who step thru the doors of Smaa. Been thinking about giving jiu jitsu a shot. Want to gain your confidence and get in shape. Maybe step out on the competition mats and step out of your comfort zone to better yourself, try it at Smaa, you won’t regret it."
Kenneth Mark Bison
"For you wanting to compete and truly get into BJJ shape there is not a better gym in the Arklatex area. Whatever it is you like no gi or Gi. There is not another school that offers the amount of classes or one on one teaching that SMAA offers and from such a talented Professor in Wayne Knudsen"
Adrian Ables
