    I've been taking jiu jitsu classes here for just over a month and I really love it. I was nervous…read moreto start something new but the environment here is so welcoming that I started looking forward to class almost right away. The coaches are great and I've already learned a ton.

    I was competing in mixed martial arts in China town San Francisco before it was a thing. I loved it…read morewhen the first UFC VHS tapes came out and people like Graci made this sport a thing. I've eaten lunch with Ken Shamrock in San Jose and had The Beastman Eastman and others attend my concerts in Las Vegas so I have to say I love this gym is here in Clearwater and I hope people check this place out. You never know. My cousin and I trained his son and he made it to the finals in the Sacramento try outs a while ago. I actually told a want a be gang banger at my work who was threatening me that I'd go ask the instructor here if he'd allow us to get in the octagon together in a controlled match to let us spare then hopefully we'd be able to get past our differences. Fighting shouldn't be a first option, but when it's necessary it should be in a controlled environment where each man can learn from from it and grow from it. He was an adult and less than half my age, but he declined. Now I believe if this man had joined this gym instead of hung out with gang bangers he'd have the discipline to speak better to his elders and wisdom to know when to fight, where to fight, and with whom to fight. Keep up the good work guys. Lets get a champion coming out of Clearwater.

    I've had the privilege of training under coach Bill for a few years. I cannot express enough how…read morepassionate and enthusiastic he is about martial arts that is actually practical. I say that with an emphasis because there are a lot of Brazilian jiu jitsu (BJJ) gyms popping up these days that focus on wining matches and scoring points. You must do your own research and due diligence to pick a gym that's right for you. I have been training BJJ for over 10 years now and my best advice for you is to register for a free trial class. There's no amount of review-reading you can do that will compare to the feedback you get from your first class. Then, decide if it's for you or not. Fair? One standout aspect you should know about Blast MMA and coach Bill is that he is a well-rounded martial artist. He doesn't just do jiu jitsu. He does wrestling, Judo, and striking (MMA) as well. It's natural to assume oh if he does other things, maybe his jiu jitsu or his striking may not be as good. Uh uh. That's not the case here. He's at the same level in all of them! The way I see it, coach Bill views them all as different parts making up one single, complete art. They aren't siloed or separated for him. I've seen him coach BJJ tournaments, Muay Thai matches and MMA fights - big and small. He's done it all. You can expect to absorb all of his knowledge here at Blast MMA! I don't personally do striking but you'll surely be doing a lot of take downs (Judo, wrestling, MMA) here. Once you advance in ranks, you will learn many kinds of leg locks. You will also learn back attacks, chokes and submissions that coach Bill has tested and refined over the years. You can expect powerful techniques that work in any settings - a self-defense situation, a BJJ tournament, or an MMA fight. The "Power Kimura" that he taught me is still a part of my game today. In case you don't yet understand all the above BJJ and MMA lingo, don't worry about it. If you have been wondering about starting your fight journey, all I have to say is register for that free trial class. That's exactly how I got hooked - a free trial class. I had been thinking about training for a couple years before that. I wished I started sooner. Don't do what I did. Start NOW! If you live in the area, I cannot think of a better, well-rounded gym than Blast MMA. You're going to learn so much!

    I had the fortune of learning from Bill Easlick since 2018. In addition to collegiate wrestling, he…read morehas experience in Muay Thai and of course a legitimate BJJ black belt. He has trained and coached both amateur and professional fighters. Unlike many in the sport, he is extremely open minded and always providing support to his students in the way they learn best.
