Testimonials

 

 "My original intentions for becoming a member of Martial Arts-USA was to simply get back into shape via a structured class environment. I decided that my days of expensive gym memberships were over and that I needed a routine that went beyond simple 'repetitions' and 'sets' and BJJ has more than exceeded my needs and expectations (Lost 25lbs. in 5 months!). Professor Lawson's profound knowledge and dedication toward the martial arts are tirelessly shared to all at any level and his natural teaching ability only increases my desires to learn more with every class. BJJ has become a vital component of my life in terms of my health both physically and mentally and I can honestly say I owe it to Professor Lawson and the great environment he has created."

" I have know Professor Pete Lawson for over 5 years, he came to me for instruction in Tuite and Kyusho-jutsu. 
I was immediately impress with his skills, and his open minded approach.   I soon became interested in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and began to study under him. His classes are fantastic, his instruction is very detailed and he is very patience instructor. 
I highly recommend his classes to beginners and advance Martial artist."

 " Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is so much fun that I almost forget that I am getting in shape when I do it. Training with Peter Lawson, I feel that I get excellent instruction. He is clear and precise as well as easy going and friendly. I love the camaraderie at our school and I am always looking forward to the next practice. If you are even a little bit curious, I recommend that you try a free class. I know that I only regret not signing up sooner."

 "As this is my first time studying maritial arts, I wasn't sure what to expect.  Peter Lawson is an expert teacher to both beginner and expert students.  He makes everyone feel comfortable in the early stages, yet challenges all students and has them performing to their maximum potential.  While the classes are open and freindly, the conditioning is challenging.  Whether you are interested in just getting into better shape or want to learn about the tactical structure of Brazilian Jui Jitsu, Peter's classes are for you"
