They've been here for a long time and have a group of very knowledgeable instructors and students that are very welcoming, led by Black Belt Instructor Tony Baker. Classes are available at very convenient times throughout the day from early morning classes to day and night classes as well. The kids class is very open and is taught at a level that is very conducive to learning, and is broken up into different age groups for positive peer pressure! Give them a call or stop on by and see what they're all about, there rates are great and also do military rates as well!

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.

I highly recommend The Academy of Gulf Breeze to anyone who wants to get in shape, learn self defense, and feel great.

Please check this place out if you want to make a change in your life and not feel stressed out.

I'm a purple belt from LA that visited Pensacola for a few months. I needed to find a place to…read moretrain, and ended up selecting 9th Jiu Jitsu because David, the head instructor, was very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. While I was there, the curriculum focused on strong fundamentals and that's why I elected to stay. This is the perfect place for those looking to build a solid foundation in jiu jitsu in the Pensacola area. David will teach you the textbook execution of jiu jitsu and provide skillful insight on what he finds the most successful. He is also open minded to new techniques without the ego that I often find at some gyms. All the training partners were friendly and provided a great learning environment for all levels. If you are new, there is a strong group of white belts that you can join your jiu jitsu journey with. The gym is well maintained and always clean. I couldn't recommend this place enough, and I will definitely stop by whenever I'm back in town.

You come here to train and get better, not to have people fawn over how cool you are with your lame credentials.

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.
