Bowie Jiu-Jitsu Academy

We've been coming to Bowie Jiu-jitsu since my son was 4 years old & now he's 6. We love the atmosphere & the instructors are amazing. We're like family now & we love Mr. Kenny. And they have a Woman's Empowerment class too which unfortunately due to my job schedule I couldn't continue participating in but that was an amazing experience as well. They teach the kids & adults techniques to defend themselves. I feel confident that my child will know how to handle a bully in the future. I would recommend for anyone to join whether you're an adult or a child. This place is AMAZING!!!

My Girl Scouts Troop recently took a trial class and Coach Kenny did an amazing job with them. His instruction of self-defense and enthusiasm during the introductory session made a significant impact on my scouts. He was able to connect with the girls and inspired confidence made enjoyable for all. It was an educational, positive and welcoming environment for the group. We had such a positive experience with everyone that we encountered at Bowie Jiu-Jitsu Academy. Keep up the great work and we appreciate what you bring to the community.

Enrolled my 14 year granddaughter and she has found her tribe! Lot's of self confidence and self-esteem building. Many, many thanks to the wonderful instructors !!!!!

I’ve been attending Bowie Jiu-Jitsu Academy for some time now, and from day one the instructors and students have been welcoming and encouraging. The classes are well-structured, and the techniques are explained in a clear and straightforward way that makes them easy to follow. I highly recommend this academy if you’re looking for a clean, supportive environment to learn BJJ, with skilled instructors and a great group of training partners. Stop by for a visit—and don’t forget to leave your ego at the door.

I don’t know anything about Jiu Jitsu but my son expressed interest and so we set him up for the free trial lessons. When I say I have never seen a more welcoming group of instructional staff, I am not exaggerating. My son began in the Bullyproof program and I was very impressed by how the class was led. Not only do the children learn the basics of this martial art, but the instructors dedicate time to reinforce self-confidence and respectful behaviors. My son then transitioned to the Gracie Combatives program. At first we thought he was disadvantaged since the majority of this class comprised of adults. Both the staff and these students made my son feel comfortable and took the time to help him learn the techniques; there was ZERO judgment or frustration when they paired up with him. As someone who works alongside Instructional System Design teams and Human Performance Technology experts, I can truly say that Kenny and his team know exactly how to motivate a group and produce positive results. These results are not only learning the art of Jiu Jitsu, but also building an atmosphere of respect. As for the facility, it is very well maintained and provides a comfortable environment to read, work, and/or observe the class. The ONLY reason we left the school is because my job required us to move to a different state. Kenny is the epitome of a positive role model and we need more people in this world like him.
