Rothwell Mixed Martial Arts - Martial arts school in Kenosha - 7600 75th St Suite 107, USA

My Name is Don Wilkins. I highly recommend this gym you will find "Nothing better"! Ben amazing man. Ben if you can find it in your heart please forgive me let me come back I would appreciate it. I've gone to many gyms after leaving your gym biggest mistake. Thank you

These guys are awesome! I have a very anxious and emotional 5yo who struggles with new things and group activities. He had been asking for a long time to do a martial art and even though this is the first place we tried, I am so glad we found Rothwell! Coach James and his team have worked one on one with my son and helped him overcome his fears and anxiety and participate (several times)! They are patient and supportive and my son responds so we'll to their teaching style. Classes are a bit on the larger side, but they always have extra coaches around to help during practice. I don't know that my son will ever want to compete, but he is enjoying classes and working on his motor skills!

Rothwell Mma is an amazing gym. I started training here 3 months ago and the progress I have made is mind blowing. Everyone at the gym is very friendly and genuinely want to help your progression. I feel like I am part of a family when I come here! Anyone that has ever considered doing kickboxing, bjj, or just getting in shape should come check it out. I guarantee you won't regret it.

I'd been interested in the idea of kickboxing for a long time, more and actively for the last few months, but I was intimidated by going to a gym and being completely outclassed and too out-of-shape. I also didn't know which gym to pick so that I felt comfortable as a woman, not surrounded by a bunch of men who felt exclusive and unaccepting. I'm happy to say that Rothwell made me feel at home right away. I knew within the first few minutes. I can only speak to the kickboxing class, although they offer others. I was given one-on-one instruction for my trial lesson. The adult class was roughly 1/4 women, so I didn't feel isolated. Everything is very clean and there are sterilizing procedures to keep things as nice as possible. The changing/restroom for women is cramped. There aren't any lockers, but there is room enough to put clothes, coats, shoes etc on a large shelf. Otherwise the gym makes really good use of its space, and Jen at the front desk is wonderful for assistance and answering questions. I would recommend Rothwell to anyone interested trying something new--or like me, something I've always wanted to try!

Anyone looking for super professional gym/business is going to want to sign up here. I've been wanting to enroll my daughter in some kind of self defense for years, and we decided that this was the year. She is 10 years old and is taking the Youth Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class. Ever since she started, she has had an amazing sense of pride and accomplishment. The class and the instructors have given her a unique self confidence that she has not acquired in any of the extra curricular classes she has tried before this. James, Cody and Matt are very patient and helpful "coaches" and along with Jen, have been very responsive to any questions or concerns we have had. We could not be happier with a group of people adding to a very important aspect of our daughter's young life.

I was hesitant about joining an MMA gym without knowing much about it; but everyone at Rothwell is very welcoming, approachable, and quick to introduce themselves to new faces. So far it's been a great place to learn about self-defense, martial arts, and have an intense cardio workout. The instructors consist of active UFC fighters, Jiu-Jitsu black belts, and competitive amateur fighters, so you know they're legit. If you're thinking about checking it out - do it, plus the first session is on the house so you can see what it's like.

I’ve never been an athlete of any kind and I’ve only checked out Rothwell MMA because one of my co-workers decided to take a look. However, after the first BJJ class, I was hooked. Rothwell MMA is owned and operated by top ranking UFC fighter, Ben Rothwell. So there should be no doubt in anyone’s mind that the instructions available in this gym are world class. What truly surprised me is the atmosphere of this gym. You truly feel like you are a part of a family when you train here. Rothwell MMA really encourages team work. You don’t feel like you are in competition with your fellow students, rather, you are learning from each other. The instructor for the BJJ class is third degree black belt, Gilmar Ferreira. I am constantly amazed at the attention to detail of his instructions. He is a very hands-on instructor and is very creative in the ways he keeps his students engaged. It has be great learning from him and everyone else in class. After joining Rothwell MMA, my health improved drastically. The classes provide a great avenue to train your body. It also pushes you to adopt a healthy lifestyle and diet (Because, if you don’t, you are going to feel it in class). Joining Rothwell MMA has been a life changing experience. My only regret is that I didn’t find it sooner.

This has to be the best instruction in the area. The gym is incredibly clean and well lit and every single student there is very nice and helpful. The instructors are obviously some of the best around. Ben Rothwell is a UFC fighter with 33 wins and Thiago Veiga is a 2 time BJJ world champion. I started in March 2013 and lost over 20lbs so far since that was one of my goals. I'm also bipolar so I would recommend it to anyone to help with mood disorders, especially depression. Even when I have to drag myself there, I've never left a class wishing I didn't go and it helps my confidence and makes me feel better overall. I've done karate and tae kwon do in the past and this is the best martial arts experience I've had so far.
