ALLGROUND Jiu Jitsu

“Easily the best experience I have had working out period, let alone martial arts. The coaches Laird, Elias and Tina are all kindhearted and truly want to see you improve and accomplish all your goals. It’s incredibly helpful that they’re all young and can personally show you positions and techniques or train hard with you one-on-one in a way that an older coach might not be able to. And even though they're young they know just as much and more than any other coach I’ve worked with. I’ve improved tremendously since the day I first walked in with no experience, and I owe it all to the outstanding coaches at AllGround.”

“This is truly an outstanding place to train! The coaches Elias, Laird and Tina are top notch. You are not going to find a better coaching crew in town. Also, they have instituted a culture that has attracted first class athletes that are also first class people. This makes the training even more enjoyable. Lastly, I highly recommend the competition class. It will change your life - for the better!”

“ALLGROUND Jiu Jitsu has been a fantastic experience for me as a beginner to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Elias and Laird are great teachers and were very accommodating to me after a bad knee injury. They never pressured me to go harder than I was comfortable with and paired me up with people that would be careful with my knee as I recovered. Best marks all around as they have a very clean gym with friendly students.”

“If you're looking for top-tier Jiu Jitsu instruction in an incredibly positive and motivating environment, this gym is the place to be! The level of detail in the instruction is amazing--every technique is broken down in a way that makes sense, whether you're brand new to BJJ or a seasoned competitor looking to refine your game. The coaches are brothers who quite literally grew up on the mats, and their passion and work ethic show in every class. They create an environment where everyone pushes each other to improve, and you can feel the sense of community from the moment you step in. What makes this gym even more special is its deep roots in Jiu Jitsu history. Their father was one of the original Dirty Dozen, meaning their lineage and knowledge come straight from some of the first black belts in the U.S. You can tell that tradition and excellence are at the core of their teaching. Another huge plus is the variety of classes offered throughout the day, giving you plenty of opportunities to train no matter what your schedule looks like. Whether you're an early riser, prefer evening sessions, or need flexibility throughout the week, they make it easy to stay consistent with your training. If you're serious about improving your Jiu Jitsu in a gym with world-class instruction and a supportive family-like culture, this is the place to train.”

“We’re so grateful to find such passionate coaches who make learning martial arts so much fun and very interesting for our girls! Coaches Tina and Laird are not only excellent at their craft but also amazing with kids! My husband had zero luck trying to get the girls interested in learning martial arts until the day he found All Ground Jiu Jitsu doing a demo at the farmers market. He immediately signed them up for a *free* trial class without asking them. The girls were not very happy when they found out and were more than hesitant to go (lol). Everything changed when the girls met their coaches and completed the trial class. They enjoyed it so much, and are beyond eager to come to class each time! They said they love learning new techniques and enjoy playing the games in class. Needless to say, this made their Papa so happy! We highly recommend All Ground Jiu Jitsu!”
