Explore Jiu Jitsu Techniques“My son and I attended jiujitsu at this gym. We are from Colorado and have trained at a lot of gyms while traveling and let me tell you this… This gym is hands down one of the best in the entire state of Connecticut. From the moment we walked in we were welcomed by Jeff and he proceeded to teach a class for 8year-teens and his attentional to detail, knowledge, and ability to make every student have fun and learn was amazing to see. My son could not stop talking about how much he enjoyed the class. I stayed for the adults jiujitsu class. I have been doing jiujitsu for a while but was instantly taught something new and learned tips I have never heard before. The class was fun, an amazing workout, and all the other people in the class were super welcoming and cool! We will definitely be back. Jeff is one of the best coaches I’ve ever seen.”
“I joined this gym without knowing much about Jiujitsu. My goals were to train, exercise and learn Bjj. I am very happy with how I am treated. Everyone is welcoming and the coaches are super kind and knowledgeable. I can't say enough good things about this gym!”
“I walked into Ascension Athletics without knowing a thing about martial arts. The coaches, Matt and Jeff, were so kind and supportive from the very beginning. It was clear from my first day that they love what they do and they love sharing their knowledge and helping their students improve. They go above and beyond to make sure the class and individuals understand and really get the concepts. They care about their students in and out of the gym. I feel so lucky to have discovered Ascension and I’m grateful to the coaches for everything they have done to help me learn and grow on and off the mats.”
“Even though my daugher wanted to try a martial art, she can be hesitant in a new environment. On our first visit to Ascension, Coach Jeff walked her through what to expect and made her feel welcome. All of the coaches (Jeff, Dan, and Matt) have been great in helping her build both Brazilian Jiu Jitsu skill and self-confidence. The Ascension family provides a great atmosphere for learning and growth!”
“It probably took me about a month to join because I was shy, nervous and trying to get a feel for the people/ coaches so I'd just watch. I had a few friends join before me and they loved it. I remember sitting there quietly just watching and one day Jeff looks at me and asks me when am I going to join, but the way he said it made me feel welcomed. Soon after I joined and it was a life changer. Ascension is home. We all get along with each other; we just click. Its a fun atmosphere full of jokes, laughter and the coaches genuinely care about us. They want to see us succeed, they are on the mats teaching and explaining moves its great. If you are interested in giving MMA a try Ascension is the perfect start. There is no judgement. We are all one ”
