Training with Brandon and Hannah has been nothing short of an amazing experience. They have an absolute ton of knowledge and know how to teach it in a relatable way. Stepping into a new gym or picking up martial arts for the first time ever is always a nerve wrecking experience, at least for me, but the Coaches and students really make it feel like home. I went from spectator with 0 hands on experience to putting up a decent fight with most people in the gym in just a few months. Regardless if you’re a weathered jiu jitsu practitioner or it’s your first time ever, I know this is the place for you.

I’ve been training with Brandon & Hannah for over a year now. They’re very knowledgeable and patient, which has been appreciated since I was brand new to jiu jitsu. As I’ve learned more, I appreciate the systematic approach of Brandon’s instruction where techniques build on the previous sessions. As far as application during live rolls, Brandon applies techniques in slow motion with superior positioning and attention to detail. I mention this as encouragement to people who are interested in BJJ, but worry they’re not “athletic” (fast, flexible, etc.) enough. You’ll definitely improve in those aspects, but they are not required to enjoy learning jiu jitsu.

Brandon, and Hannah are not only knowledgeable in Jiu Jitsu with over 30+ years of experience combined but also skilled instructors. Finding individuals who are knowledgeable and great instructors is rare I've learned so much training with them. Also a great, and welcoming training environment. If you have any questions simply ask! Not all gyms are like this!

My love of BJJ started with training with Hannah and Brandon. Some of the best coaches out there as they are patient and thorough. Tough when I needed the good kick in the rear! Whether starting out as a kid (like my kiddos) or a middle aged mom like me, I highly recommend training with these two! You’ll develop a strength you never knew you had that expands far past the sport!

Crawling back into a sport like this was a task after 40. That said, Brandon and Hannah have made it an enjoyable experience and have made me feel welcome to the gym. Their knowledge and professionalism is evident from day one. They do well with building skills from the floor up and provided 1 on 1 feedback as needed. I will continue to train at Inception and would recommend others to do the same!
