  • No matter your experience and fitness level at VRMA you'll see the difference.

    For those who ware looking to get healthy, gain some confidence, get in shape, make great friends and learn the best form of martial arts from one of the best in the world today, then you need to be training at VRMA, when I started over a year ago I was an overweight, out of shape Marine Veteran, a year later I am healthier, stronger than I was while I was serving as a U.S. Marine, more focused and found something that me and my boys who also train at VRMA can do together. My boys love training at VRMA. Vagner and his instructors treat them as family. I am very over protective of my children and I can honestly say I can leave my children in their care and know everything is going to be all right. Vagner and his instructors have helped my sons overcome their fears, confidence and self esteem issues, and learning disabilities. They have become more disciplined, focused and respectful. Since training at VRMA my sons have become better students in school getting better grades, and taking on more challenging assignments and responsibilities in the class room. My family and will not train anywhere else. The staff and students at VRMA are more than just instructors and sparring partners to Team Rodgers, they have become family. I would recommend this gym to anyone, no matter your experience and fitness level at VRMA you’ll see the difference.

  • VRMA has a great family and value-based training atmosphere

    Vagner is a world class athlete and competes professionally more than five times per year. Somehow, he finds time to be on the mat teaching virtually every class. Furthermore, he personally sees to individual athlete and team development as a trainer and manager.

    Though his level of activity may seem impressive, the principles exhibited by Vagner and his team are even more important. When you are thinking about where to train, or where you want your kids to train, consider the environment. VRMA has a great family and value-based training atmosphere you won’t get anywhere else.
