Martial Arts Schools in Bend

“These folks are very welcoming and the martial arts training is superb. Very knowledgeable people.“

“As someone who never played sports as a child or young adult (I’m in my late 30s), I was intrigued, yet apprehensive about learning self defense and kickboxing. I was (painfully) aware going into it that I lacked coordination in addition to being a left handed dyslexic person, which has always made me very self conscious. On top of that, I’ve always struggled with my weight and body image and I’m a chronic over-thinker; getting in my own way is my (not so) favorite past time ? My fiancé took the leap for me and he signed us up to take private lessons together with Jimmy in August 2023. I was nervous, but after the first day, my anxiety eased SO much. Jimmy is such a kind, dedicated human being. He really cares and his emotional intelligence is on point. His ability to make me feel comfortable in my own skin is truly remarkable and has helped me grow physical confidence SO much over the last few months. I have had personal trainers in the past, but Jimmy is different. He tailors every lesson to what we want to work on, while pushing us to better ourselves physically and mentally, in an encouraging way. He picked up on our strengths and weaknesses right away and has helped both of us improve our stamina and physical abilities. I can whole heartedly say that working with Jimmy has been the best decision I (well, technically my fiancé) have ever made for my self confidence and physical and mental health. If you would have told me several months ago that I would look forward to spending an hour sweating, punching, and kicking a heavy bag (in addition to so many other physical activities), I would have literally laughed in your face! I LOVE my weekly1-hour session! I am so glad to know and train with Jimmy, both on a professional and personal level. Do yourself a favor - call, sign yourself up, and discover how confident you can be in yourself and your physical abilities with the help of someone who truly loves helping others grow and reach their potential! Thank you, Jimmy, for showing me the person I never thought I could be and for unleashing the confidence I never knew I had! ? ? ? ?“
