THE #1 BRAZILLIAN JIU JITSU ACADEMY IN FOLSOM, CA
KICKBOXING
KICKBOXING PROGRAM
The way we see it, boxing and kickboxing are easier for people who are NOT in Martial Arts at all to conceptualize striking over grappling.
Kickboxing is a stand up art with goals of staying on our feet to damage our opponents with strikes. We use Punches, Elbows, Kicks and Knees. The Head Coach Andrew Kerfoot has been doing Kickboxing and Muay Thai for about 17 Years. Our goal is to impart this knowledge that i have gathered over all of this time to my student base.
In general, when it comes to defending ourselves in the real world, Jiu-Jitsu isn't always the best choice of martial art to rely on. In most cases it is best to stay on your feet, know how to move, know how to damage people with strikes and defend yourself in the process.
These are the things that people will be learning in these classes.
OUR MOTTO
Make difficult things seem easy.
What Our Members Say
Blake Degmetich
Nexus has become my second home. The gym is full of great people and is always a good way to end your day. Andrew is extremely articulate and detailed oriented. He is the best coach I have see in my 10 years of Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing. If you like mediocrity then this is not the gym for you.
Marcos Arteaga
If you want to learn jiu jitsu in a fun and challenging environment, then this is the place for you. This is a very tight-knit group of people who are welcoming and personable. Coach Andrew is a great coach and gets everyone to reach their potential by breaking down vital steps and drilling to put those skills to the test. You won't be coddled (which is crucial for growth in this sport, and anything in life really), you'll be supported.
Joel Christner
Nexus is an excellent place to learn and train Jiu Jitsu, grappling, striking, and MMA. Andrew is a very talented 2nd degree black belt with a thoughtful and cerebral approach to teaching. The other students are friendly, talented, welcoming, and well trained. Highly recommended.
