    When I first walked into the dojo I was very intimidated by the group of men wearing their gi. It…read morewas my first martial arts experience and I only had on workout clothes. I was so surprised by the welcoming nature of Sensei Jeremy and the rest of the class (the judoka). At the Academy of Gulf Breeze, they were very nice and patient in explaining the various techniques. I felt at home training with the class and comfortable doing the ogoshi throw and various floor holds, even as the only woman. As someone who has lifted weights her entire life, I value instructors who teach proper form and explain the importance of engaging certain muscles when performing an exercise. Sensei Jeremy is really dedicated to teaching the art of judo to and runs the studio in a very professional manner. The studio is extremely nice and filled with the basic amenities (e.g. mats, bathroom, water station, storage area). I will definitely return to this studio and I recommend it to anyone looking for an excellent place to learn self defense and/or get a great workout.

    Excellent place to start training. My son loves the Kids Judo Program, and he enjoyed his time with…read moreSensei Jeremy's instruction. I highly recommend The Academy of Gulf Breeze to anyone who wants to get in shape, learn self defense, and feel great. The atmosphere of this place is family oriented and they really want to share with the community of Gulf Breeze and surrounding areas about real applications of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Judo. Please check this place out if you want to make a change in your life and not feel stressed out.

    Core martial arts has multiple programs, each with different instructors of different competencies…read more I enrolled in the Muay Thai program under Chris Scott. While the students and staff displayed respect and competency, Scott uniquely showed a lack of either. During the 1 hour training sessions, Scott would regularly begin class about 15 minutes late chatting or bragging about his personal skill in fighting, and when he actually began class, he would spend most of his time on his phone and forget what exercises he asked us to do. There is no training plan, neither in a day or throughout the year - he arbitrarily assigns exercises. Quite frankly, for the price, you will receive the same training from obtaining a regular gym membership and watching youtube. The only benefit that training under Scott provides is the chance to spar and train with other fighters who have already had training elsewhere. Competency aside, there is the aspect of respect. While the terms are thrown around casually in the current political landscape, Scott is genuinely sexist. When women are not present in the room, he enjoys leading conversations about how women are less capable or motivated than men. In one particular incident, he spent the first 15-30 minutes of a class chatting with other men how women spend their time chatting instead of training. It's frankly pathetic. Scott tries so hard to act masculine that he only comes across as a little insecure boy. What a joke. Overall, while I would recommend the gym, I would not recommend any program under scott. Edit: After posting this review, Scott called me to tell me to take down the review. He informed me that for posting this review publicly, I am pathetic and that it confirmed every negative thing he thought about me. He literally challenged me to fight him at the gym to prove how manly he is. Very masculine.

    We love Core martial arts! They are awesome with my 7 year old! Great instructors, welcoming…read moreatmosphere!
