From the reviews
Our daughter has been in Sensei Ryan's class for almost 2 months and we are loving it! She is learning valuable self-defense techniques that are taught from a practical and life-saving standpoint should someone ever attack her. She's 15, so we had the choice to put her in the teen class or basic adult class.
My Marcy just received her orange belt. I can’t even begin to describe how far she’s come mentally, emotionally, and confidently. I put her in karate due to low self esteem issues. (Those are a thing of the past now) I’ve waited this long to post a review because I’m very gun shy when it comes to endorsements.
My son loves doing martial arts at premier. They have been so supportive of each child and help them grow in their confidence. When my youngest son decided to try martial arts, they were so patient with him and encouraging (he has ASD level 3 and doesn't always do well following directions).
Our son is taking classes at Premier Martial Arts and we have been extremely impressed with the quality of instruction and the welcoming atmosphere of the school. The instructors are all highly skilled and take the time to make sure that each student is understanding and progressing in their training.
Your first BJJ class at Premier Martial Arts South Lex
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
