"Everyone has to travel a little to get to training, but if you're like me and live hundreds of kilometres from the nearest BJJ / MMA school you will be wanting to make sure that travel is well worth it! The mat culture coupled with the quality of instruction available at RedCat Academy is why I hit the road for fifteen hours several times each year just to train there. I never want to leave!" — Sam Broughton (5/5 stars) "To this day, I still haven't experienced the level of coaching excellence that Professor John Will delivers at his Redcat academy. Be it kids classes, MMA or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, this club stands at the top of the martial arts landscape. That is why I always ensure I make time 3 times per year to drive the 9 hours to Redcat even if it is just for a night or 2 of training. If you are looking for the best coach, the best techniques or just a crazy high level of martial artists with positive attitudes on one mat, Redcat is the place to visit." — Tom Davey (5/5 stars) "My three Boys have been training at Red Cat Academy now for 2 years. Just the other day Noah mentioned to me 'you know dad, I'm not that good at sports, I can't really run that fast and can't play football that good but you know what I'm really good at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and my coach Melissa is really great she explains everything really well and is very helpful, it makes Jiu Jitsu a lot of Fun and makes me want to get better and better.'" — Grant Hustler (5/5 stars) "I have been training at John Wills Red Cat Martial Arts Academy since January 2008; studying both Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Shoot Fighting. In my opinion the instruction and club culture is second to none; absolutely world class. When I started in 2008 I was 42 and hadn't been involved in any type of structured exercise for many years. I'm now fifty and love training more than ever! If you are thinking about training martial arts, I cannot recommend John Wills Red Cat Martial Arts Academy enough, it's such a great place to be." — Craig Moorfoot (5/5 stars) "I attended a seminar taught by John Will in New Zealand in 2006, this was one of the best decisions of my life and I have not looked back since. John is a world-class coach with the ability to breakdown techniques making them uncomplicated to practice. John and Melissa have created a welcoming mat culture at REDCAT Academy, this school will change your life for the better, I guarantee it." — Inger Craven (5/5 stars)
