Brad Maddox and his team of coaches are the most knowledgeable in our area in both the sport of BJJ and self defense techniques for the entire family, adults and children. I would encourage anyone to come check in out at his gym in Thorntown or the classes scheduled at the Forge training center in LaFayette.

All of my jiu jitsu knowledge comes from Brad and Bradley Maddox. They are amazing instructors and have the best instruction I've ever gotten in my almost 4 years of experience. They have built my jiu jitsu from the ground up and coached me at many competions helping me take home gold after gold.
