My first ever martial arts session today and though I was terrified and intimidated, they made it a beautiful and welcoming experience. Shayne, Penny, Abe and the rest of the crew are clearly good humans. Vibe vibe vibe!

here we are a few years later and I decided to get off my stupid butt and go back to this wonderful family and welcoming environment. Do you wanna get in shape? Show up at 6 AM and let Shayne tell you what to do to get in shape. I'm completely addicted again and I can't recommend this place enough, especially for every age. 🥰⚔️🥰⚔️

We moved and we’re no longer able to bring our child to classes. We signed their 30day cancellation form and paid the additional month of fees even though we weren’t attending anymore.

Well…. They charged us the next month even though we were not obligated to pay. No big deal I thought we would just make a call and get it fixed. After a couple calls they said it was their mistake, we had filled out the appropriate 30day notice form and they would refund us within the week.

It is now an entire month later and have yet to see the $150 refund. We have made several calls. And they now are saying they don’t have a record of the transaction. Their customer service surrounding payments leaves a lot to be desired.

Overall, the classes themselves are fine but this issue with accounting is ridiculous and enough for me to leave a poor review and not recommend them to others.

My entire family Loves Rock Solid Martial Arts. My wife and I truly enjoy taking our three kids ages 12, 8, & 6 to Rock Solid. They have been training for three years now in both American Kenpo and Jujitsu. Shayne and Penny Simpson with help from a few other key instructors do an amazing job with the kids. My kids learn so much more beyond the martial arts training they receive. Rock Solid Martial Arts provides my kid a positive environment to grow with others.

My kids have been taking classes here for over a year and they love it! The instructors are super attentive and supportive, my kids have made friends outside of school, and their confidence has grown so much.

I also take kickboxing classes here and they’re super fun even though they’re a lot of work! I knew absolutely nothing coming into it and the instructors (especially Emily!) are all super positive and motivating while also teaching skills in a variety of ways — which is helpful for me because sometimes I need to hear and do something a few different times before it makes sense.

My twin boys have been going to the Rock Solid Martial Arts and I have been doing kickboxing classes while they are in class. It has been close to a year ? (Something like that and this place is so AWESOME)

The staff members are amazing, supportive and most of all present. What do I mean by that - well they are intentional with their teachings and they pay attention to every single one of their kiddos that they have in class.

Shayne has helped my boys and I tremendously, he has guided us and given us tools inside and outside those 4 walls.

I will never forget the boys first class - I cannot express enough the gratitude we have for every single person in that place.

It has become a second home for us - while my twins are in martial arts class … I do kickboxing with the amazing (one and only) Emily.

She has been such an amazing human, super supportive, kind, genuine, caring and a great role model. This amazing group of people have made me feel understood & never have I heard anything bad, no judgements - like ever !

It’s a positive and safe place for everyone ! ❤️

I have nothing but respect and love for the amazing people of Rock Solid.

Rock solid martial arts is an amazing place to get fit! I love that my kids can attend class at the same time as me. When my children are released, and I’m not quite out yet the staff helps by keeping a watchful eye. The worst thing about rock solid martial arts is, I can’t decide which class I want to focus on more! I do fitness kick boxing with Emily, kenpo with shayne, and occasionally jiu jitsu with penny and Jonathan! Shayne, and penny are extremely supportive, and inspirational. I don’t feel like rock solid is just a place I go to workout, it feels like family to me. It took no time at all for it to feel like a second home. Kayden, and jonathan are fantastic teachers to the children directing a class full of littles I’m sure is no easy task yet they do it with such ease, and all the other people who help with the students! The front desk coordinators are amazing at helping as well! I love my rock solid family ♥️♥️

My son started at Shayne Simpson's over six year's ago at age 5 as a Little Dragon, now he's a Junior Black Belt. It's been an awesome journey and worth every penny!

I'm so grateful for everything they've done during COVID to stay open and safe, with remote classes and crazy cleaning. I've always felt safe taking him to in person classes.

Shayne, Penny, and everyone instructor over the years have been amazing. Go watch a kids class and you'll see how fun, positive, and impactful they are!

Started by signing my son up for a trial period with orientation- at the time the gym was not yet able to conduct in person classes due to covid restrictions, but Shayne communicated directly with me about the situation and as soon as they were able to conduct in person classes I was contacted to schedule the orientation. I was given all of the options and pricing associated for my 10 yo at the very beginning which I appreciated since I like to be able to plan our family’s budget. My son has been attending classes in person for weeks now and I have found that they have been using precautions like sanitizing, checking temperatures and mask wearing at the facility. I also like that a virtual option is available and we have been encouraged to use this resource at no additional cost for extra practice. Already I have seen a change in my son’s confidence level and I love that discipline and accountability are taught and encouraged outside of classes as well!

They bring you in talking about how they have these world champions, but don't mention they're champions at some sort of dance martial art, which is new and practiced by like twelve people in the world.

They make their kids teach the classes. They also had some sort of locker room video scandal that I read about after we started having issues with them and I was looking them up online. You can find a mention of it if you google "shayne simpson" locker room camera. You need the quotes around the name.

They mess up the accounting, and refuse to respond to email and calls until you bring legal language into it. I spent months trying to get their federal ID so that I could input money spent on school break camps on my taxes, and had to send them a notice explaining it was illegal for them to withhold it before they finally supplied it on the day taxes were due.

They are incredibly greedy and only care about the money. Find yourself a place that doesn't require a contract, and think about why this place does. It's so you can't escape with your wallet.

My 10 year old loves Rock Solid Martial Arts. He was given a choice between going to Rock Solid summer camp and the YMCA and he hands down chose Rock Solid.

Shayne Simpson and the staff are amazing, they problem solve, encourage the kids, are very caring and positive, and most importantly care about our kids social and mental well being. They give all the kids a place they can look forward to going to, a place to have fun and learn martial arts!

I’ve never had any problems with any of the staff there. They are always respectful and kind. They work with you in regards to payments and when you’re able to make them, which is so important for many of the hard working families. I Love Rock Solid Martial Arts and I’m very thankful for all their support.

This is one greedy business. Signed my children up pre pandemic and have been charged monthly as if my children are going. My children got to go to one class...ONE!! I asked for them to please not charge me cause well we’re not going because the country is shut down....I think that’s fair. I was told that I would not be charged during the shut down, but now that they are able to open they decided to retroactively charge me several months in one month for services we couldn’t use (BECAUSE THE COUNTRY WAS SHUT DOWN...).
I‘ve emailed several times and called, without ever getting a call back. Finally got someone today a lady who was incredibly rude and had no compassion for a mother who is not comfortable sending my children to a gym where the risk is high for catching COVID. The gym cares more about filling there pockets than they care about the safety of children.

I am thrilled with the experience my grandson is recieving at Rock Solid. We are newbies, our third month in and I already see him growing in a positive way. He is 7, was born 6 weeks early addicted to drugs, severally trauma impacted, in a special one on one behavior program at school and recently diagnosed as ADHD. I love and appreciate that 2 times a week he is able to really feel successful. I especially love the instructors and how they hold ALL students accountable for their actions and have across the board expectations that are clear and fair. I can't explain how much this is changing his life and we will continue. I am excited to see how this helps his focus, self confidence, control and integrity. If you have ever been curious what this could do for your child, come in! Worth every penny.

Great gym great instructors! Cleanliness is the biggest complaint I here. There isn't any type of shoe policy for using the bathroom and then running onto the mats. Also the mats are not wiped down at all in between classes ie: the kickboxing class/bjj. Theres still hair on the mats on a monday morning for the first class of the day. All easy fixes that should be addressed.

Edit: I have watched several children use the restrooms without shoes on and going directly back on to the mats since this review. This is not sanitary regardless of gels on the floors. Its pretty simple to have a shoe policy for using the restrooms.

They are def doing a better job of cleaning the mats but the bathroom issue needs to be addressed.!

This story of continued progress starts over 3 years ago; we started w/ our now almost 10 year old daughter who started at "Miss Pennys' (Shayne's wife) karate studio location. Our daughter took immediate interest, and we decided to continue to keep her going. Once our two boys became old enough to begin their own journey into karate we enrolled them. Due to time conflicts in our personal life we had to make the switch to Shayne's studio. The academics in karate for these young learners has a value that just can not be measured over a short time period. Watching our three children grow in Karate and excel at what they love is what we love about them. Shayne and his team of Karate instructors have shown our children what is possible in self-defense and self-discipline. The intent with our children is to continue seeing them grow at Shayne's karate studio.
On a side note- from the time you enter the studio until you leave the staff are always pleasant and approachable. Even when extremely busy they will still find the time to answer your questions and/or concerns.

As a martial arts instructor she is firm yet patient. You can tell she cares about her students and wants them to do well.

They discuss different topics like bullying and not using your karate for hurting others. My kids love her!

I have been taking fitness kickboxing lessons at Rock Solid since last September, 2016. I have learned so much from Penny Simpson and gained more strength, along with losing 14 pounds, which I wasn't trying to lose in the first place. Penny is great with all ages of people and a true inspiration and I feel so happy to have met her. We work very hard but also have a lot of laughs, too, and I have met some great people there.

I have worked out for many years and done a lot of different things, so if I can start kickboxing lessons at the age of 65, so can anyone, male or female. The martial arts AREN"T about violence but learning honor, respect and loyalty to and from other people.

Give them a try and you won't be disappointed!!!

Kind regards,

Instructors at Shayne Simpson’s gym are experienced and skilled in their craft as well as their ability to teach what they know. Most significant to me, though, is HOW they teach. Every instructor teaches with compassion, patience and spirited encouragement. Each makes a point to enthusiastically and thoughtfully push students further, while also helping us improve technique. These qualities become a part of the culture of the class. The atmosphere that teachers create ultimately draws out the same understanding, respect, kindness, good humor and desire for personal challenge from the students, both veteran and beginners. Thank you for this supportive, challenging learning environment!

Even areas I felt proficient in, his instructors provided a much needed reality check for my so called proficiency. Not only did his instructors provide this reality check, but also as a testimony of the great coaching and training his instructors provide, many students also gave me a welcoming reality check of my skill level. This was done without ego or belittling, just good hard training and a great experience.
The best part of Shayne Simpson’s Martial Art’s is the wide variety of classes he offers. He has many disciplines of training, from Kenpo Karate, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai Kickboxing, Mixed Martial Arts, and many other fitness programs. This demonstrates how multidimensional his school and approach to providing great training is second to none.
The staff and Instructors are very knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated to student improvement.
I recommend anyone regardless of your skill level to attend training at Shayne Simpson’s Martial Arts. I guarantee you Shayne and his instructors will, provide new skills, improve upon your skills, and strive to make you a better martial artist.

A couple of years ago, I signed up for classes, and after several days of friendly bending-over-backward sales pitches, I paid for a year of classes up front and in-full. A few month later during drills, I dislocated my shoulder completely out of the socket and had to go to the Emergency Room. This caused me to miss work, a change of duties while my arm was in a sling, and missing classes.
The trip to the ER cost me more than $2000. I explained my circumstances to Shayne Simpson over email, and he explained that I could get the refund if I sold my membership as a Gift Certificate. With no avail, I emailed him again with no response for weeks, so I decided to call, and spoke with Shayne directly. His response was something to the effect of "you should have seen this coming" and "act like a man."
Now, this man is still paying the $2000 ER bill ... and out nearly another $1000 for classes that I'll never use since his "customer service." Why would I go back to use up gift certificate after I was treated so poorly? Why would I sell it to someone else and recommending that they go there when this is how they treat their clients?

We just signed my son up for his second year in their Little Dragons program and couldn't be happier. He loves the classes, earning his next belt, and telling me about all that he is learning. I am excited that they can keep him focused and motivated to always try to do better. The instructors are awesome, they continually seem to have great attitudes and keep the classes upbeat. We also enrolled in two weeks of their summer program last year, and it was fantastic. I was able to drop him off just before 8am every day and pick him up after 5, and he always came home happy and tired. I believe they focused on lessons the first half of the day, and then played at the park every afternoon. I just wish I was young enough to attend, what a way to spend the summer.

Only place I take my kids. Been in martial arts since 13. Studied in Japan with great teachers and this is where I go and take my kids. Shayne knows the difference between sport and fighting. What works and what's good exercise. Lots of kids and adults of all levels. Great jujitsu.

Shayne Simpson's Martial Arts is such positive environment for both adults and children. The instructors have great attitudes and a passion for teaching the students. From personal experience I know that all of the instructors are incredibly knowledgeable. I would recommend this school for any adults or children who want to pursue martial arts.

I have seen the wonderful things that happen to children when they learn confidence. The programs here are great for all ages. Great class integration of home, school and class lessons on respect, honesty and bullyproofing and much more. Don't be a bully and Don't be bullied.

They have great facilities and great instructors for Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu, and MMA. Plenty of room and great for beginners. BUT their prices are too expensive IMHO. Also, I had to wait a month and a half just to receive my money back after cancelling. As I see it, that is completely unacceptable. From a business standpoint, no good. From a training standpoint, excellent! The trainers are the only reason I gave it a 1 and not a 0 simply because of the frustration in dealing with my refund. If the prices were better, I might take some of their jiu jitsu classes. I left them for Bellingham MMA which has MUCH better prices and harder training.

Poor customer service. Slow response time to resolve issues
