If you want to a safe and friendly place either you or your kids to train Gracie Jiu Jitsu, Boxing, Mixed Martial Arts, or are just looking to for the extremely effective way to get into shape, you really won't find a better place to train in Knoxville. Shield Systems' atmosphere has always been professional and friendly, and since the very beginning I have enjoyed my flexible membership, the welcoming members, the top-notch facilities, and high quality instruction offered by the both instructors Ben Harrison and Amy Coleman. Amy's "Fight to be Fit" program will get and keep you in the best shape of your life regardless of your starting physique or what time you work. Everyone one of her classes pushes you to your limit and leaves you exhausted. Head instructor Ben Harrison's expertise in Mixed Martial Arts and Gracie Jiu Jitsu, as well as his time in the U.S. armed forces has given him a wealth of knowledge of self defense and Mixed Martial Arts that is unparalled. The well-structured but ultimately personal curriculum he has created will teach you to become compent in defending yourself or others in short order. After training here for several months I went from an young college student with a generous freshman fifteen to an athlete with with complete confidence in my ability to protect myself, regardless of the situation.(Tldr: There isn't any better martial arts gym in Knoxville)
