I have tried a few different Martial arts places over my lifetime. On many occasions the instructors thug like mentality of acting tough, passive aggressively saying how they can hurt or maim you and my amazing ability to somehow attract the instructors disgust had really turned me off from Martial arts. I was recommended to check out Battle Control by a friend who had been going to another place I had recently quit for some of the above reasons. I was reluctant but I decided to check it out and enrolled my kids. The instructor offered to train me as well for a very fair price though. I actually craved to learn martial arts that were effective, but from an honorable person. Not a thug. I had to see who this guy really was first. My instructor Greg Lara showed himself to be an honorable man. He begins most classes with a prayer (sometimes we forget) to Jesus Christ. He pushes everyone to do their best but we train with a respect for each other. I think this is a great start as Judeo-Christian values are in humility and proper treatment of your fellow man. The value of this on the practice mats cannot be over emphasized. You are learning to strangle and destroy joints of the human body. You need to be working alongside people who have a sense of justice a desire to protect their sparring partners. I have been doing jiu jitsu at Battle Control for 4 going on 5 years now. I have been promoted to purple belt and am able to use my skill to bring down and restrain or worse grown men, some outweighing me by 50 or more pounds. The skills I learned first came in handy as a bouncer and now as a security professional I know that if necessary I can take an attacker down ( I have not had to use it in regular security). I also have helped to teach as a substitute in the kids classes on occasion and I think this is a great place to get good quality instruction.
