Watson Martial Arts is the real deal. Kyle is a super humble and knowledgeable black belt. I always judge a gym by its culture and Watson is top tier. People want to roll and are kind but also compete.
Best jiu jitsu gym in St Louis! Great gym with a great professor! Professor Kyle and his students were very welcoming and great training partners. Learned a lot in the advanced class that I attended, look forward to stopping again in the future.
Came through town for a visit and was looking for a place to get some BJJ roles in and was recommended Watson from another gym. I connected with Kyle the owner and was immediately impressed with how welcoming and hospitable he treated me and my friends who came along. Made it to a couple classes and had a great time. Shout out to Nick one of the coaches who did a great job teaching. Racheal at the desk was also very helpful and welcoming. Highly recommended Watson Martial Arts for anyone looking for a good place to train with good people around.
10/10 recommend! I was back in town to visit family and reached out for a private lesson. I have some experience but am mostly a perpetual beginner. Rachel and Kyle were super responsive and set me up with an awesome 1:1 session with Colin the next day. Colin is a super skilled and intuitive coach - the workout was great and got to hone my technical skills as well. If you’re thinking of joining - just go!
I had the pleasure of visiting this beautiful facility in St Louis as a guest instructor and was not disappointed. Owner Kyle Watson has built a massive professional gym. From striking to fitness to grappling it's all under one roof in a laid-back environment. His students are fun and welcoming. There are all levels from beginner to expert with a large number of black belts on the mat. I enjoyed my visit especially my roll with Kyle and hope to be back soon.
