Black Bear BJJ & Fitness

“Incredible school! This was my second time in Maine for work for a few months during the summer and after the first visit, I immediately looked them up when I came back. The instructors are incredible, the atmosphere is awesome, and the group of people here are very welcoming and just genuine, cool people. I really can’t recommend Black Bear enough!”

“I had a great time visiting here! The class was awesome, everyone was super welcoming and friendly, and the owner Jeremy was a fantastic host. Definitely going to be my go-to spot to train in Augusta in the future!”

“Great gym for my three kids. Instructors are excellent, inviting atmosphere and accommodating to all skill levels. Highly recommend.”

“Black Bear BJJ is one of the very few schools (if not the only one) in the area that offers a day class. I always look forward to rolling during Friday morning no-gi and love the small class sizes that allow me a better opportunity to ask questions and practice moves until I feel like I've got it. Often class instruction is based on what moves the students are interested in learning, which makes for a really personalized experience. Jeremy and Chris are patient, knowledgeable instructors and the school is welcoming to everyone regardless of age, gender, or skill level. You meet some really great people here too!”

“Showed up as an older student wanting to learn something new in the martial arts world, so to speak. Everyone has been phenomenal, instructors and students alike. Everyone is encouraged to grow and learn at a pace that makes them comfortable. Learning is easy with instructors that are always available and will help and teach you through anything you might be struggling to grasp. Great people and awesome environment.”
