Martial Arts Schools in Gallatin

“Ernie Reyes Martial Arts has been an incredible experience for both of our daughters. Beyond learning martial arts techniques, they’ve gained confidence, discipline, respect, perseverance, and a strong work ethic that carries over into everyday life. Each of them has benefited in their own unique way, growing mentally and physically through the structure and encouragement provided by the instructors.

The environment at ERMA is positive, motivating, and family-oriented. The instructors genuinely care about helping every student reach their full potential while teaching valuable life lessons along the way. Watching our daughters continue to work toward their black belts has been amazing, and we’ve seen firsthand how much dedication, accountability, and self-confidence they’ve developed through this journey.

We highly recommend Ernie Reyes Martial Arts to any family looking for more than just martial arts training — it’s a place where kids build character, resilience, and lifelong skills.“

“I’ve been training in the adult Jiu-Jitsu program at GMA Martial Arts for almost a year now, and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made.

The staff here is phenomenal, every instructor brings a deep level of skill, real fighting experience, and a teaching style that’s hands-on and supportive. What really stands out to me is how they take the time to work with you as an individual. Being in my 40s and dealing with a few lingering injuries, I was a little unsure about getting started, but they’ve always been incredibly attentive to my needs and limitations while still challenging me to grow.

The atmosphere is outstanding, very supportive, motivating, and just a genuinely fun place to be. Whether you’re completely new or more experienced, this is the kind of gym that makes you feel welcomed from day one.

Highly recommend to anyone thinking about getting into Jiu-Jitsu or looking for a great place to train.“
