What do actual Lindamoods Martial Arts members say?
"I had a great time training here! Professor Lindamood had a lot of really great insights and pointers for all of us. I love his real world approach to BJJ. If you are in Roanoke and want to learn jiu-jitsu this is by far the best place to train. I look forward to the next time I'm in town and can come drop in for another great class. I highly recommend Lindamood Martial Arts."
"Professor Bobby is not just my Coach, he is my brother and friend! BJJ/Martial arts here is not just about learning techniques, it is about slowing down, connecting mind with your body, and honestly expressing your abilities. The culture pushes you to grow, explore, and be your truest self on the mat and in life."
"I can't say enough about how great a program Bobby runs. The kids classes are fun and educational and I love the connections I've made in the adult BJJ and kickboxing classes. If you're looking for a family oriented, educational and fun program, look no further!"
"I've been training at Lindamoods Martial Arts in Bonsack for 7 years and it's been amazing. Professor Lindamood and the team are skilled, patient, and make every class engaging. The community is welcoming, and I've grown stronger and more confident through their gi and no-gi classes. The gym is clean, and the schedule works great. Highly recommend Lindamoods Martial arts to beginners and advanced jiu jitsu practitioners alike!"
"I may be a little biased because Professor Lindamood is a great friend of mine, but my experience with him over the years has shown me one thing clearly: he is a genuinely kind, caring, and dedicated leader. That same care and professionalism shines through in everything he does — as a business owner, a martial arts practitioner, and an educator. If you're looking for a place to train, or a safe and supportive environment for your children, look no further. Professor Lindamood sets the standard."
