This school is a hidden gem. I suspect Mr. Westfall is one of the most knowledgeable martial…read moreartists in the country. Best of all, he doesn't see himself as a guru or know-it-all. He sees himself as a student--always learning and passing his new knowledge to his students. The prices are extremely reasonable and it's not a huge money grab or cult like some martial arts schools around the country.

First of all, Jeff Westfall, owner and head instructor, is probably the most scientific instructor…read moreI've had the pleasure of learning under. While I have experienced Brazilian jiu jitsu instruction at Rising Phoenix, it is obvious that he has a similar very scientific, enthusiastic, and patient approach with his other martial arts. Mr. Westfall is vastly knowledgeable and masterful across several martial art disciplines. He has experience training under/alongside some of the greatest and most influential martial artists in recent history. He provides concise instruction with a very respectful attitude that gives the gym a leg up on others in the region. I'd guess someone would have to travel hundreds of miles in any direction to get the same level of training. The facility is complete with grappling mats, bags, trapping dummy, boxing ring, and plenty of open space for kali or Jun Fan. It is always clean and well organized. The prices for classes are very reasonable as well. If you're looking for a martial arts gym for fitness, competition, or self defense, this is your place. If you are looking to get started or find a new place to train, this is it. The first class is free, so what do you have to lose? I suppose I should also note that there is no machismo-factor at this gym, everyone is very respectful and very easy to get along with, which makes it an excellent place to excel at your art.
