What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Joyce Yeung

"This is such a special gym. Jeremy Watkins has poured into my kids, helping them become the best athletes they can be. He reassures them in their losses that they are not far away from their goals; in their wins, he celebrates with them and tries to stretch them even further. If you want to be a professional athlete - Jeremy can absolutely coach you to become one. If you are a beginner white belt who simply wants to learn a few moves - Jeremy can also effectively guide you. It is very rare to find a gym that can do both, especially for kids and young adults."

Sarah Turner

"Professor Jeremy and the entire Watkins family create a place you want to spend every night at. Yes we are together almost every night and many weekends!! Their passion for martial arts and dedication to their students is evident in every aspect of the school. Watching my son train at this school has been an absolute joy. Not only has he grown physically and developed impressive skills on the mat, but he's also grown as a person. The lessons he's learned extend far beyond martial arts techniques; they're lessons that will serve him well in all aspects of his life. One aspect that truly sets this school apart is the junior coaches. These young leaders not only assist with classes but also serve as mentors and role models for the younger students. They instill confidence and provide support, creating a positive environment for everyone. As someone who has been involved in sports for my entire life, I can confidently say that what the Watkins family has built here is truly incredible. They've created more than just a martial arts school; they've created a community where students of all ages can thrive and grow. If you're looking for a martial arts school that not only teaches impressive skills but also fosters personal growth and confidence, look no further than Watkins Wrecking Crew."

Steven

"My kids and I have been training here for a year now. I cannot say enough about how much I love the group of kids, adults, junior coaches and professor Jeremy. It is a family friendly environment with no egos. Jeremy's 2 daughters are 4 and 5 time world and kidspans champions along with many other accomplishments, so it is nice for my kids to be able to train with such high level athletes. They have a all women's class two nights a week and just started a Judo competition class 3 nights as well. Jeremy always welcomes new comers or people that just want to drop in and cross train with us. He also offers a full week for free to test it out and see if it's a good fit for you."

Andrew Shelton

"My family and I have attended Watkins for 3+ years now. We began going here after attending other jiu jitsu academys because we noticed their incredible success at local tournaments. After making the move to Watkins we found the overall atmosphere was completely different than what we had experienced before. There is a personal attention paid to the students that we didn’t realize had been lacking. Jeremy is truly a gifted coach and the gym is perfect for those who seek to excel at the highest level of competition and hobbyists alike. We’re grateful to have found such an amzing group of people."
