I've recently started training here because I wanted something meaningful I could do with my son and my entire family. I'm ex-military, and I’ve missed the camaraderie and group training I had while I served. That experience brought me discipline, structure, and a sense of purpose. At Pittman’s Jiu Jitsu, we get the most structured training regimen along with life’s principles and values that shape us not only as martial artists, but as better people outside the gym. It gives my family and me a place to grow together—physically, mentally, and personally. I highly recommend Klay Pittman and his team of instructors. If you’re looking for a safe, disciplined, and welcoming place to learn and train, this is the place for you.
I have nothing but good things to say about Pittman jiu jitsu. I am a student here and I love every time I come to class. From the students to The instructors everyone is very friendly and loves teaching/learning jiu jitsu. I am glad to be a student here and I can't wait to look forward in becoming a better person as well a better student under Mr. Pittman and the rest of the amazing instructors here at the Academy.
Faith, Family, and World-Class Jiu Jitsu! Pittman Jiu Jitsu is truly something special. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed—not just as a student, but as part of a Christ-centered family. The instruction is top-notch, and the instructors are incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging. But what sets Pittman apart is the way they integrate Christian values into everything they do. Whether it’s opening class with a word of wisdom, a time of reflection, showing respect and humility on the mats, or encouraging each other with grace, this gym reflects the love of Christ in both word and action. Our son has grown so much here—not just in his knowledge of Jiu Jitsu, but in character. If you’re looking for a place to train hard, grow spiritually, and be surrounded by uplifting people, Pittman Jiu Jitsu is the place to be!
Pittman Jiu Jitsu has become a foundational part of our family. We have been training around 9 months now and look forward to it every week. The entire staff is knowledgeable, attentive and supportive. No matter the level of understanding you have of martial arts, or the age of the student, Professor Pittman and his staff are able and willing to teach. We have two children, the oldest of which is 4 and loves coming to training and the youngest is 2 and can’t wait until she turns 3 so she can start training. This is a great outlet for all the extra energy while also building up core principles to train my children to have integrity. We have found it to be so much more than just self defense. It has helped us teach the principles and core values we want in our family. We highly recommend Pittman’s to any family looking to build up their family dynamic or just looking to learn self defense. Professor Pittman and his team are committed to helping you and your family meet your goals. They will work with you where you are at to make it happen. So thankful for this community, because that is what they are, a community.
The best thing about Pittman Jiu Jitsu is the affordability for the whole family to join. There are not a lot of activities you can do as a family for that low of a monthly price. Also, you get to work side by side with your family members as it's not split by ages. I feel like I can learn and mentor my kiddos at the same time so it's nice. I highly recommend if you're looking for something to do as a family.
