Alex and Josh provide great instruction. The teams is warm and friendly. I would recommend this school for all ages.

Finally had the chance to roll with my cousin-in-law, who is a student at this gym and had an absolute blast! His professors are some of the coolest and best instructors I've had the opportunity to learn from. I really enjoyed professor Alex's teaching style of explaining a concept and going over 3-5 ie's of that principle. There are black belts and then there are black belts who are also black belt instructors, him being one of them . He also does a great job getting the students involved and asking some what they would do in specific situations. The rolling or sparring was very safe but same time give me a fantastic work out - Everyone is respectful and takes into regard each other's safety. Such a fantastic jiujitsu school!

Great school to train at! My 10 year old son loves all the coaches. They are patient and very thorough. I love to train here myself, we have a great team of ladies, that was a big component when choosing a school for me. All the professors are great :)

My kids (1 daughter and 1 son) started training here this year and while they have only been coming here for the last 4-5 months I've seen such a difference. They absolutely LOVE coming to class and learning new techniques. They are both constantly reminding me that they have class that day and my daughter gets very upset the few times we miss class lol funny thing is that I was worried about her not liking it and now it's her favorite hobby. Both kids will practice the lessons they learn in class on their own at home which I think says a lot about the instructors and how they lead the class and teach the students. All of the coaches are very professional yet make coming here feel like being part of a family. Also, I am very surprised to see the techniques they are learning in class. The lessons begin as simple and basic then build off of each other. The studio is also ALWAYS very clean. Price point wise, I think it is very reasonable and I'm grateful this is also a place where they don't try to haggle you or add extra charges as I have seen/experienced at other places. This is a studio where they really care for the students and their developments. I think I could go on and on about how amazing this place is! But for now I'll just leave it at that! :)

Been here a while. Seen the ups and downs. The way this school has thrived  this past year has been nothing short of amazing. The current capacity that is near full,  speaks of parents and students who have experienced, and are confident of, the safe and clean environment this school maintains. Above all, still teaching kids and students the importance of daily discipline and respect.Great job to professor and his staff here!
