TPC Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & MMA — Local services in Beaumont

So I went to another gym before this one and i was kinda shocked with the way the pricing and availability of training was presented and I called TPC that day to check their price. Jason picked up the phone, told me to get a pillow and come sleep here lol for the unlimited price which was a phenomenal deal. I did a bit of research and they have a very good lineage of teachers. So I went to my first day two weeks ago and I got to do some sidework in the muy thai class which is hitting pads, doing combos, etc. They paired me with one of their more senior students who was nice enough to take the time out of his training to show me how to do stuff and I did not feel like i was being an inconvenience at all. Kevin was leading the class and he showed me what he wanted to see and it was fun. Being overweight and out of shape, no one gave me dirty looks when I did my pushups from my knees nor when i did air squats instead of burpees because of a medical condition I have. Everything was fun and everyone was patient and I felt like I found the spot I wanted to be at. I was thrilled.

Anyway, fast forward a week, I found out one of my medical conditions has gotten worse and so when I requested to cancel my membership, Jason personally called me and took care of it. I'm bummed that I won't be able to train here in the near term future but I think its awesome that there is a place like this here in Beaumont for anyone that wants to learn healthy habits and have confidence in themselves. I hope to get to a point where I can recover and at least do pad work if not sparring. Time will tell.

I highly recommend this place. Just go in and look at all of the trophies. Shake everyones hand. Take your first class and see if its a good fit for you. You won't be...

My son has participated in the kids class for a couple years now and we love it. The coaches have no tollerance for bullying inside and out of class and help your child prepare for any sticky situation they may come across by giving them the knowledge, confidence, and experience on self defense or taking appropriate actions. Coach Chris is patient and is a natural with kids, we are all like one big family. He's genuinely concerned with the child's well-being and makes sure they hold themselves to a higher standard on and off the mat. It's been a great outlet for my non-sports loving son, here he gets to exercise his mind and body. I was exceptionally impressed when a child confided in the coach that he was physically bullied at school once, coach Chris had the child show him what happened and taught him what to do the next time. He then used the entire next month talking to and teaching the kids how to use self defense based on what that kids bully did (without calling the him out of course). Karate and taekwando can give kids a false sense of security, but Jujitsu works every part of the body and prepares them for realistic situations. I also think their prices and flexibility are awesome. If I could give more stars, I would. TPC fans for life. The adult classes look fun too, there's a good deal of both women and men, and once again, they all seem like one big family ready to...

The roots of this gym go back to Royce Gracie himself. TPC's founder, Pat Hardy, was the first black belt that Royce Gracie ever promoted. I started at TPC not knowing that fact, but since I learned that I have found pride in knowing I am training on mats with such great lineage. Also learning that this gym has produced so many people that have medaled in competitions at the highest stage (IBJJF Worlds) has blown my mind. I casually trained here for several years before getting pretty serious about the training and starting to do some competitions myself. The level of detail that Jason and the other instructors provide is unmatched when compared to other gyms that I have attended. The day my kids are old enough to join the gym they will be training on these mats. As a father who trains, I understand that the best gift that I can give my children is the ability for them to take care of themselves when daddy is not around. TPC and the Kid Hawks program is what will give me comfort as a father knowing my kids will be able to defend themselves if needed. This gym and the people inside of it have helped me become a better person. I will continue with this gym until the day I die. So if you happen to drop in I can't...
