These instructors are the last of their kind. These guys know True Traditional Technique and will only show you the Right way to do it.I have traveled over an hour drive one way just to train with these guys and if I could train 7 days a week with them, I would.

Excellent gym! It's a great environment that is friendly, conducive to learning, and developing into a well rounded martial artist. Casey Baynes' BJJ instruction focuses on no-frills, effective techniques for both grappling tournaments and self-defense. Easily the best gym in the Athens/Watkinsville area.

I tried a few different gyms in the Athens and Watkinsville area after moving here to go to UGA, and Megalodon has been the ones who offered the best training and best atmosphere. Very family friendly and welcoming to new people, Casey and the guys here have made it feel like home without sacrificing any intensity of training at all, it's a great place to do BJJ in the UGA area.

Casey & Tracy provide a very warm and welcoming environment to train in. Regardless of your skill level, you will receive the attention necessary to improve your form and fitness. I tried other gyms, in different states and multiple forms, Megalodon has taught me more in a shorter amount of time. I am very thankful to have found this gym, and happy that it is near my home, because many of my fellow martial artists come from much farther away. Thank you Coach!
