We just enrolled both of our kids into United Martial arts.We absolutely love this place.Our kids have learned more at this place in one week than they did months in Midland at Matthews Martial arts. Highly recommend! Coach Bruce is amazing. He is so good with the kids and very humble. Don't waste your money anywhere else. This place is the real deal.
The best martial arts school in town if you wannna learn anything legit to fight and self defense !
I came hear for two trial workouts this week. The environment hear is great. The instructors are friendly, know their stuff and look the part. You won't be being trained by some out of shape instructor. These guys are active and are very engaged with all the students. You are going to feel like they want you to be there, and that they want you to learn. Their is an emphasis on technique and precision. You won't be told "good job" if you're not doing good. I love that about this place. In terms of membership, it's a straightforward contract, I think it's affordable for what you get from the place. It's not planet fitness so don't expect that. You can also not expect for them to put pressure on you to make a decision. Like I said, you're going to feel like they want you there, but it won't feel like they're putting pressure on you. They're honest, they're sincere, and they're going to have me as a member until I move from Lubbock.
I was in Lubbock for 24 hours on business, and had the opportunity to stop in for their evening class. Everyone was super welcoming and made me feel right at home. There was zero “tough guy ego” and everyone rolled hard. The instruction was detailed and specific. Douglas was patient and incredibly helpful. His energy was very positive and infectious. If you are in Lubbock and have a chance, get a class in here!!!
Douglas Bueno is such an amazing Jiu Jitsu instructor! I travel for work from Dallas, but every time I'm in town I don't hesitate to come in and train. He's so amazingly technical and all of his students are extremely skilled and respectful. Absolutely one of the best schools in the area!
