“Our middle school aged son was interested in Jiu Jitsu. We researched a few places around town and decided to go with Bear Hug. Tony is great with the kids, our son looks forward to going to practice and learning. Highly recommend.”

“I first saw an advertisement at my college when I found out about this place. After 3 months of training at Bear Hug, I have become addicted to the art of BJJ while growing connections with others. Tony and his son Donya have always made me feel welcome. They never fail put effort into all students equally to help them improve. The time and kindness both teachers have given to me have transformed my life. No matter what your goals are, this is an outstanding place to improve your health and mindset.”

“My son has been going to Bear Hug Jujitsu for about 6 months now. Tony has taught my son (who started out very timid) confidence, strength, and agility . My son is now able to help some of the new students, which I credit Tony’s teaching style, patience and direction. Tony is able to teach a large class but understands each individuals learning style and at the same time challenges my son to do better because Tony knows he can. This experience has been such a blessing. Seeing my son become more confident and learning leadership skills is great. Bear Hug Jujitsu is a great environment for kids and adults to learn a skill that can take them in to all walks of life.”

“My oldest son has been at Bear Hug for a year-and-a-half now, and still loves it!! My youngest started this summer, and they both like how Tony offers clear instructions when introducing new techniques and builds their confidence as they practice these skills. As a mom who just started the adult class, I appreciate a place where my entire family feels safe and comfortable while challenging ourselves both physically and mentally. Thank you, Tony, for creating such an environment!”
