I did a class with Willie this week and it was awesome. I was with a friend who was heading to the class with his son and I was curious about it so I asked if I could watch. Willie was happy to have me watch, but also invited me to join. His welcoming energy inspired me to give it a go. I have a small amount of martial arts training and it has been awhile since I’ve trained. I’m happy I joined in because it was one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve had in learning martial arts. Willie creates a relaxed yet focused space, and there’s a great balance between having fun and developing the skills and knowledge of the martial arts. I appreciate his way of both explaining and showing the various techniques, as well as when, where, and how they can be used most effectively. He does a great job with people of various levels. Beginners need not be intimidated. I’d definitely recommend Willie and Sims Martial Arts to anyone interested in learning and developing the skills.

Sims Martial Arts has been the best introduction into Muay Thai, and martial arts in general. I had no expectations or knowledge upfront but was looking for a new and fun workout class that also offered some practical defense skills. I found that, but so much more. Willie (as well as the entire community at Sims) has been welcoming, fun, and supportive. He offers classes that engage people at various skill levels and gives fantastic one-on-one feedback to help you improve and encouragement to keep you motivated. If you’ve wanted to give martial arts a try but have felt unsure or intimidated, this is the perfect place for you. I immediately felt at home, and I catch myself smiling through every lesson. I was hooked after the first class!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Sims Martial Arts Training is more than just a gym, it’s a community. Instructor Willie creates an incredibly welcoming and positive atmosphere that makes everyone feel like they belong, no matter their experience level. He truly has a passion for teaching and genuinely cares for each of his students. Me and my husband have been practicing Muay Thai for years and have tried many gyms, and this gym is a rare find! While the vibe is fun and encouraging, make no mistake, Willie takes the art seriously. His instruction is clear, focused, and motivating, helping you grow both in skill and confidence. If you’re looking for a place to train that’s exciting, affordable, and led by someone who truly cares about your progress, Sims Martial Arts Training is the place to be!

Choosing Willie as our instructor has been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. This isn’t just martial arts—it’s life-changing mentorship. Willie’s dedication shines through in every session, not only teaching my 10-year-old son but also guiding me with wisdom and attention to detail. What sets him apart? It’s the mindset shifts and tiny details most overlook—like slowing down and trusting in my bodies intelligence; building confidence and strength. Watching my son grow in discipline and self-assurance has been incredible. Willie doesn’t just train fighters; he shapes resilient, thoughtful individuals. If you’re hesitating, don’t. This isn’t a class—it’s a community. Missing out here means missing a chance to grow in ways you never imagined. Willie isn’t just ‘good’… he’s the real deal.

Sims Martial Arts Training offers great classes and Willie is a great instructor! My husband and I are beginners who were interested in trying out martial arts. Willie has been very friendly and welcoming to us in every class. We always feel engaged and work up a sweat. Willie also gives us each easy to understand advice during each class that helps us improve at our own pace. We look forward to attending classes whenever we can!
