“Coach JT is one of the best professors I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. He was an undefeated professional BJJ competitor and has many tried and true methods that come from his real world application of the sport. He was also a wrestler and sambo practitioner and knows a lot of proven take downs for no gi and gi. He is a patient teacher and welcomes all levels of students from first timers to people re-entering the sport. He provides a safe place to learn and grow. On top of that he is a wonderful and delightful human being. I cannot say enough good things about him and his academy.”

“I highly recommend Blue Collar Grappling to anyone, any age, interested in learning Jiu-jitsu. Whether you're interested in pursuing it as a new hobby, to get in shape or you're planning on competing. The people are very welcoming and are NOT judgmental, in fact, everyone is encouraging and extremely helpful. The entire atmosphere is just positive, nothing but good vibes. I, myself, have only been going for a few months, but I was looking for a fun, challenging activity to help me lose weight, when I started Jiu-jitsu. Being almost 40 and heavier than I'd like to be , I was seriously dreading going. I felt ridiculous. No, that's wrong, I was just very insecure, but I'm so glad I worked passed my insecurities. The instructor is the best, hands down. He's VERY patient, encouraging and understanding. He's great in adjusting his teaching style to accommodate the different ways his students learn best and doesn't mind repeating demonstrations until he feels his students understand what to do, but above all he prioritizes SAFETY!!!!! His love for Jiu-jitsu shows in the way he teaches and because of that, he's classes are so much fun. Again, you can't go wrong or regret checking out Blue Collar Grappling.”
