Benefit #1
A great way to get in shape
Jiu-Jitsu offers an exceptional way to get into shape because it combines physical fitness and mental agility. It's a full-body workout that improves cardiovascular endurance, strength, and flexibility. The dynamic nature of Jiu-Jitsu engages various muscle groups while also enhancing balance and coordination. Moreover, the discipline promotes weight loss and overall fitness through consistent training. Beyond the physical benefits, it fosters mental resilience and problem-solving skills, making it a holistic and enjoyable path to better health and fitness.
Benefit #2
Stress Reliever
Jiu-Jitsu is a remarkable stress reliever due to its unique blend of physical activity and mental focus. When you step onto the mat, the intensity of training demands your full attention, allowing you to temporarily set aside life's stresses and anxieties. The controlled, measured movements required in Jiu-Jitsu help calm the mind and encourage mindfulness, reducing stress levels. Additionally, the camaraderie among training partners and the sense of accomplishment after each session creates a supportive and positive environment that can alleviate tension and promote mental well-being.
Benefit #3

At The Summit, we offer specialized classes tailored to suit different age groups, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone. For kids, jiu-jitsu promotes discipline, teamwork, and self-confidence, all while helping them develop physical fitness and self-defense skills.

Regardless of your age, participating in jiu-jitsu classes can be a rewarding journey toward better physical fitness and personal growth!
more happy students!
We were introduced to The Summit by a family member and I enrolled my 6 year old son in their tigers program. We've been an active member for several months now and I'm very happy with the staff and the coaches for their age appropriate program. My son is very happy to attend weekly classes and earn belt clips each week he stays committed to his goal sheet. The coaches are amazing and really encourage positive behavior inside and outside of the studio. I love it so much I also attend their Saturday morning Women's Jui Jitsu classes and their monthly self defense seminar. Totally worth the time & money invested.
All of the staff is encouraging, positive and motivated and truly want everyone to reach their goals. When they say you’re part of the family - they mean it. Also, I am AMAZED at how quickly and successfully TSMA adapted to social distancing - and it is literally fun for everyone. Kudos to an amazing team!!
We love TSMA! The coaches are amazing! It is a family friendly facility. And our daughter has increased her confidence and athleticism! We are proud to be part of the TSMA family!
My daughter is in her second year at TSMA and she absolutely LOVES it !! The staff and Admin all have a vested interest and concern for your child and your family......from Ms. Tara at reception to all the coaches you definitely know that your child and your family matter at TSMA!!! The coaches are very knowledgeable & professional but what I, as a parent, appreciate the most is that they teach "to" the kids not "at" them. They do an excellent job at building a rapport with the kids and make learning a SERIOUS but FUN Experience!!!!
My grand daughter takes taekwondo classes here. This is here 4th week. So far I have been satisfied with the program and staff
Such a great school for kids and adults with experienced and professional teachers. They do a great job teaching kids to learn respect and how to defend themselves with honor. Chaz and professor Flores do a great job teaching at a pace every Individual will understand.
I highly recommend the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes. Excellent coaching and curriculum.
TSMA Jiu Jitsu Lab OKC is a wonderful place to build a family & friends. The environment is always friendly & welcoming people with kindness, TSMA Is my second home. I share TSMA Jiu Jitsu Lab OKC every chance I get and all the wonderful achievements that we have accomplished and more to come.... I encourage everyone to come and be apart of this beautiful family setting.
Do you know how much I LOVE The Summit Martial Arts? this weekend I was telling a total stranger how much I appreciate the coaches and staff. They have really helped my Grandson develop, grow and mature. I also had to tell her about our Adult classes AND how great the women's self defense seminars are! I sure hope she will come check us out this weekend! She will love it too!
TSMA is great! The coaches and members are friendly and encouraging. I was nervous to join a martial arts class, especially at my age, but going to TSMA has been a wonderful experience. I’ve learned so much and I’ve had a lot of fun doing it.
The Summit is a wonderful place! Great atmosphere for family, kids, GREAT summer camp and after school programs! The Kickboxing program is legit! The BJJ program is also legit. Check it out!
Amazing after school program! My kids always have a great time with all the activities. They treat us like family. Coach Chantel is absolutely the best, TSMA wouldn't be the same without her!
Great place for my little guy over summer break. Coach Chantal is always helpful and kind.
Very clean facility and I can’t say enough about the staff. Caring, honest and dedicated staff. Even though she is unable to attend due to the pandemic they have came up with many clever ways to stay in touch and give these kids daily activities. LOVE this place
We were first introduced to TSMA when our 7-year-old son attended their summer camp and LOVED it there. He then decided to join and do jiu jitsu. We love the staff and how great they are with our son and making sure he's safe and comfortable. They all love him and we all love them. They truly treat everyone like family and we are so excited for his TSMA journey!
I highly recommend Summit Martial arts. I know Dominique and his staff are true professionals and care about their customers. Daniel and I have known Dominique since 1998 and at NO time has he ever NOT supported the military. From the time he was young man still in high school until now he has always been so supportive of our brave men and women in the Armed forces including our son who he grew up with! This saddens me that someone would attack him on this issue especially since his dad retired from the military and his mom served as well. Plus many other close family friends and church friends that he knows. Daniel, and I and our son Major Alexander Jenkins fully support Summit Martial Arts 100%! Dominique God bless you, your wife, children and business! Love you all.
Great team here that is passionate about children and martial arts equally. Invested in a huge new space to continue to grow the program. Really excited to have this place available to us.
The people at TSMA are enthusiastic, caring, and attentive to children. I feel like they go above and beyond helping my daughter learn and grow. She has so much fun there with her friends too!
As soon as I drove up to TSMA I already felt welcomed. I walked into a very clean and open concept gym. I was greeted by wonderful Tara who truly helps run the whole place! She walked me around and explained everything I needed to know without me even asking. I had my 5 year old son with me, Tara set up a one on one with my son and a coach. I love this concept, it allows all the rules for your child to be explained and really gives them the full attention they need to know what’s expected. This gym is very much so a family oriented environment. I love coming here, my husband, son, and I all attend. They even have a kids cave area for the kids to play while parents are attended their classes. It’s very impressive.
Our family started attending Summer Camp at Summit Martial Arts this summer 2022 and our kids LOVED it. They were constantly busy, lots of field trips and tons of activities throughout the day to keep their minds and bodies occupied. Our kids will be back for summer camp again next year. Our kids are now also taking martial arts at Summit and loving this experience as well. The staff is amazing and welcoming and so attentive to each child's needs and safety. So glad we found Summit!
We have loved being a part of the Summit. They are nice, accommodating and just make you feel like family. We are enjoying our experience with all the different classes they offer for martial arts and jiu-jitsu. I participated in the women's jiu-jitsu and loved it.. 🙂 We love that they go above and beyond to show their customers that they are more than just customers but friends and family.
My boys have participated in Jiu Jitsu and Martial Arts classes since December 2020 at TSMA, and they love it there. All of the coaches have made their experience fun as well as educational. My older at child attended the virtual school program in the spring and the coaches were wonderful about communicating and making sure he worked on his school work. Both of my kids attended the summer camp program and loved that as well. I loved knowing they were staying active and having fun off of electronics each day! Thanks for everything, TSMA!
As a parent, finding a suitable extracurricular activity for my children is a priority. After discovering TSMA's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program, I can confidently say it has been a transformative experience for my children and me. This review aims to highlight the numerous ways in which this program has positively impacted us, as well as acknowledge the outstanding guidance and support provided by Tara. Engaging and Empowering Experience: TSMA's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program offers an engaging and empowering experience for individuals of all ages and skill levels. The focus on discipline, self-defense, and physical fitness creates a well-rounded environment that fosters personal growth. My children, who initially lacked self-confidence, have blossomed into more assertive and resilient individuals through participating in this program. Likewise, I have witnessed a significant improvement in my own physical fitness and mental well-being. One of the most remarkable aspects of our experience at TSMA has been the exceptional experience provided by Tara. Tara creates a supportive and inclusive environment where students feel comfortable pushing their boundaries and exploring their capabilities. Tara consistently goes above and beyond to ensure everyone receives the guidance they need. Personalized Attention and Progression: One aspect of TSMA's program that sets it apart is the emphasis on personalized attention and progression. Tara takes the time to understand each student's unique strengths, weaknesses, and goals and works with each coach to ensure proper instruction based on the student's needs. This individualized approach has allowed my children to progress significantly in their Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu journey. From mastering fundamental techniques to more advanced maneuvers, we have felt supported every step of the way. Community and Lifelong Connections: TSMA's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program goes beyond just instruction; it fosters community and camaraderie among its members. The friendly and welcoming atmosphere created by Tara and the entire TSMA team encourages teamwork and collaboration. We have had the pleasure of meeting like-minded individuals who share our passion for martial arts, resulting in lifelong connections and friendships. Conclusion: TSMA's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program has been an exceptional experience for my children and me. Its impact on our physical fitness, self-confidence, and overall well-being is genuinely remarkable. With Tara's outstanding guidance and support, we have navigated this program quickly and enthusiastically. If you are looking for a transformative experience that combines discipline, self-defense, and personal growth, I wholeheartedly recommend TSMA's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program.
Ally loves getting to ride in the TSMA van after school. Thank you so much for including Piedmont Early Childhood Center to your after school program! We are Truly grateful! Ally is passionate about martial arts. This program allows her to participate in Martial Arts 4 days a week, where she is surrounded by positivity, recognition and is learning about respect! It’s fun to see her so excited, confident and more respectful. Thank you TSMA
The coach is great and it feels like a family there. My daughter have been going there for almost 3 years and about to make black belt class soon.
The people slamming this business obviously didn’t spend any time getting to know Mr. Jackson, the owner of Summit. He cares deeply about his students and his staff and will do anything to make sure they are taken care of. The team at Summit are not only well trained but are there because they believe in the program and system Mr. Jackson has put in place. Your child will be in great hands with this team and you won’t regret it. I recommend anyone thinking about enrolling their child in a program like this to check it out for yourself and see first hand how this will benefit you and your family. Don’t take my word for it, go see for yourself.
We absolutely love TSMA! The coaches are very interactive with the students and push them to be the very best people, on and off the mats, as they can be. We are honored to be part of the TSMA family! ❤
Incredible atmosphere (FAMILY), top notch instructors and staff who are always willing to take the time to ensure understanding of the concepts and lessons. Great place for adults and kids alike!
I started out looking at Bjj classes. I knew I didn’t want something that was militant but inclusive. I joined up at TSMA for the family and friendships. They’re very understanding and great with communication. The TSMA family FB group is a great perk to have. Being able to see coach spread his positive message in different communities is great!
My wife and I took some classes here and absolutely feel in love with the atmosphere. We signed our daughter up for the summer camp and she loved it they truly go above and beyond for the kids. They planned activities each week for all the kids from field trips to activities at the camp. They always keep in great contact with the parents letting us know what was going on and what they would be doing week to week. All of the coach’s and team members are always willing to help and answer any question you have no matter what they are. Our daughter has now started taking MMA classes during the week and has shown amazing positive change in behavior and manners since starting with coach John. I would truly suggest that anyone interested in starting a journey for themselves or the kids go here first they will make you feel like part of the team not just another number they are truly amazing. Chantal is amazing she has helped us with each and every step from starting summer camp to helping us get our daughter enrolled in the after school care and the mma classes she has been a huge part of what has made this place feel comfortable for all of us and can not show enough appreciation for what they have done.
We love TSMA! Our sons take martial arts and jiu jitsu classes there and it is always such a great environment for them. The coaches are supportive, and really know how to work well with all different kinds of kids! We have loved seeing the confidence in our boys grow since they started!
This place has amazing atmosphere and a wide variety of things to do! From kids jujitsu, adult jujitsu, and fitness classes you will not be disappointed. Bonus they have kid camps for all ages.
This is a family hands down. They turly care and go out of their way for everyone! You can't go wrong with TSMA!
We were overwhelmed by the staff at TSMA from day 1. Our daughter found her passion here. The coaches are encouraging, friendly and fun. We love the family feel! I cannot say enough good things about TSMA. 😊
Absolutely love TSMA and highly recommend it! My son is so excited to go everyday!
We’re coming up on a year at TSMA! My son practices Martial Arts, attends their After School Care Program & LOVES his time here. I very much appreciate the discipline, respect, and integrity their programs instill. TSMA is ran by a community of and for families. All the thumbs up!!
I happened to stumble on to the TSMA group through a FB post, in summer 2021. To tell you how amazing they are, would take pages. The programs they offer outside of the summer camp, are on point! The Coach to Student ratio is great, and there's never a shortage of fun. Structure, discipline, and encouragement are just a few of the things they provide. We definitely love it!
This is the best place to go if you really want to change your life in a great way. Mr. Jackson is amazing!!
My experiences here with the outstanding people and staff are what make this business the only place I recommend and visit when I visit OKC and Yukon! The community and truly life changing friendships have help me level up in all aspects of my life. I will forever be grateful! If you get the opportunity to visit and be part of this community, please do. I know you will love it. Sincerely, Ranulfo Gonzalez
The summit has been GREAT for our four year old. His pre-k was postponed so we entered him in the pre k camp at the summit. He has never been anywhere but home due to me owning an in home daycare and I was super nervous to send him, but he loves his friends and all of his coaches. The communication is also EXCELLENT and that makes me feel comfortable sending him there all day. They really take the time to know your child and your family and connect with each one of you. We plan to keep him here until his school opens up and then also possibly in the summer. They are teaching him his pre-k curriculum as well as listening skills and manners! He says yes ma’am and yes sir and he is getting better at following instructions. We love this team of coaches like family and wouldn’t put our dude anywhere else!! Chantal is their director and I highly recommend getting ahold of her to enroll your kiddo, you won’t have regrets!
I enjoyed my time, although it was short I loved it. I play competitive softball, that takes up all my free time. If I didn’t play softball I would definitely be at classes lol the time. I love The Summit! The staff is amazing! My favorite is Mrs. Tara and Mrs. Moriah! If you want to change your outlook on yourself, and life join The Summit family!!!
My daughter loves TSMA ! They are so kind and made us feel welcomed and made me feel comfortable right away . I have never had an after school program pick my child up from school so I was very nervous since I’ve always picked her up. But they were awesome enough to send me pictures when she was picked up AND when she arrived at their facility. 10/10 recommend !
We have been coming to TSMA for 2 years now and we have had the best experience! My daughter has learned so much to protecting her self, how to be respectful and not to tolerate bullies! This company is family oriented and has the up most respect for our Frontline workers, Military and Schools. A great asset to our community and for that we are so greatful! The after school program and camps they have are amazing and the coaches are caring and super fun! We as a community will be forever greatful for all you do for our babies. Keep up the amazing work!
