- Sarah WI attend the morning kickboxing classes here and love it. The trainer, Josh, is knowledgeable, supportive, and makes the class fun, all of which is important since I’m a complete newbie. The gym itself is clean, well-lit, and the equipment is in good shape. Definitely recommend for anyone looking to start kickboxing classes or get support for their fitness goals with a group of awesome, like-minded people.
- Nichole HI've had the pleasure of meeting (and rolling with) both Keith and his wife, Natalie. These are two of the kindest folks I've met in my jiu jitsu journey in St. Louis. I train at another local gym, but we cross train regularly via the TAC Team Women's program. I don't have kids, so I can't speak to their youth program. However, I would bring my hypothetical children here. Anyone can teach jiu jitsu, but it's important to learn leadership skills along the way. I've seen Keith navigate big personalities with the grace of a ballet dancer. (This is a fun visual if you know the man.) I've learned a few leadership skills myself from the man. Check out Strategic Jiu Jitsu. It's clean, female friendly, kid friendly, and an overall great martial arts school!
- Joy EHad our first women's self-defense training today and it was a great experience. The trainer, Keith, showed us basic level fundamentals today. The pace is excellent for beginners. Like Keith said, you can't learn all the techniques in an hour and a half, so we will be continuing the class every other Sunday. This is something I have always wanted to do and now we have an opportunity in the Alton area for women to learn not just self-defense but confidence. I'm so excited to start my journey at Strategic BJJ and look forward to continuing training!
