Chad has been training my kids for the last 6 years and has been nothing short of amazing with Them. He was so integral to Their training that when He chose to venture out His own, both of My Boys did not hesitate to follow. MMA and BJJ were their favorite parts of the blended system They studied.

I have trained in martial arts for the better part of 20 years and I can confidently say Chad Shepherd is the best instructor I've ever had the opportunity to work with. He is able to break down the material and instruct it clearly and confidently. He cares about each one of his students and works hard to help them achieve their goals. He is especially good with children. My son, my Father and my nephew have all trained under him and had the same experience as I have.

Bring your son, daughter ... read more

Chad is an excellent teacher- he takes time to ensure each child is progressing in the lessons. Many other options are out there for MMA but Chad’s classes are the best investment of your time and money. His dedication to the class is evident at each meeting. He balances fun and diligence so the kids pick up on skills necessary to improve in each focus area. This academy is well worth the investment!!
