Alex Wilkie's Martial Arts Academy

Great for every age, body type, mind set, skill level (most importantly beginners!). Everyone is always friendly and helpful. Whether you want to take you time and learn, or push yourself to the max, this is the place for you. Changed my life for ever, I will never stop training here. Big Al is an absolute legend and all around great man. 11/10 recommend ❤️🧡💛🖤

Honestly I did not have high or low expectations at all coming here. I had vero little knowledge on Jiu Jitsu. But I will say, I’m the girliest a girl could get, and have never done anything like that in my life. I’m perky and ask many questions and take a while to understand things. I just started my first class today. But I am SOOOO overwhelmed with happiness and faith in doing something I love and in a place so accepting. Greg was super patient with me and everyone there was respectful and kind. The student that was my partner for the day was incredibly helpful and patient as well. And Alex was sooo kind and generous. I was so afraid to go here and left BEYOND grateful. Loved every second of it. I truly had fun. Time flew by so quick and I cannot wait to see how my body and mind adjusts to this hopefully new lifestyle 💪🏽❤️‼️

My children train MMA here. I feel very confident that they can defend themselves in times of danger. They are very brave and positive since training with Big Al. The staff is very professional and knowledgeable. Big AL is the Best!

I've been going to Wilkie's for a little over a year now. Many schools teach martial arts, some teach "self-defense", but few teach applied self defense. Alex Wilkie's martial arts academy is one of the few places that teaches true self defense that will help you in real situations. Law enforcement agencies know this, navy seals know this, and even Hell's Angels know this, so they train at Wilkie's. If you want to learn something that could help save your life, this is the place to go.

Been going off and on for 4 years now, this place is the best MMA Gym you'll find. Al is a great guy and know what he is doing. The sessions make you push yourself and teach you a lot. He mixes all of the traditional martial arts programs and adapts them to the 21st century fight styles. He not only trains civilians but is a supporter and teacher to us in the Military. He trains police officers and federal employees in hand to hand combat and tactical drills. Even the people there are helpful and knowledgeable, you won't find a more supportive group of people than those at Wilkie's.
