Chef did such a great job with his first location that he had to open a second. This new gym is fantastic and is still run by the same amazing staff. They are incredible with kids. The transformation in my young boys has been a sight. Theyre brimming with confidence and love getting to wrestle with other kids. Life skills abound while the fun doesnt stop. I cant recommend this place highly enough!

From the mouth of my 11-year-old: 4/5 stars because "Nothing is perfect. They have us do some things I feel like I cannot do. But, I like the people that I roll with. I like getting to know them before and after class. Class is fun and challenging. I like my coaches." From the parents of the ASD 11-year-old: As a homeschool mom of an ASD boy with inattentive ADHD and OCD, it is hard to find physical activities that keep his attention and keep him active. After basketball, baseball, tennis, soccer, and flag football where getting him to practice/games was all tooth pulling, bargaining, and negotiation ... He is excited and ASKS to go to classes with his coaches!! Sad truth of the matter is, there are bad people in the world that could easily take advantage of him... or more likely his mouth will get him into a bad situation he may not know how to get out of. I am so glad I took the risk in signing him up for Jiu Jitsu. Coaches are all patient with him even when his attention wanes... which is often. He is learning about respect, doing something for the sake of learning (and not just *winning*), and how to work with others.

The owner is awesome and very knowledgeable. He enjoys teaching and helping us learn. I especially like the lunch time classes. The coach is an awesome guy and the classes are great.
