Bourbon Submission Academy

“Highly recommend Bourbon Submission Academy. My children attend class on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s and love it. The instructors are great with the kids and very knowledgeable!”

“Bourbon Submission Academy is not only the sole Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu/Submission Grappling facility in Paris but also a gold-mine of knowledge and camaraderie. All of the instructors: Paul, Will, Will (different Will), and Justin are all incredibly kind, respectful, patient, and knowledgeable. Recently moving to Paris, I was searching for a place closer to home and this hits the spot big-time for some great rounds and great people. If you’re in the area and looking for some good training, THIS is your place. Also: If you have kids, there are classes available for little ones. I whole heartedly believe BJJ is the best self-defense to carry with you through life.”

“I’ve had the privilege of training at BSA a few times now and have nothing but great things to say about the facility, the instructors, and the family-friendly dynamic of this gym. Paul is an incredible instructor who values the sport as well as the atmosphere. Highly recommend.”

“Awesome place to train. I did a "pop in" class a few years ago when traveling in Kentucky and was very impressed with the instruction, the talent in the room, and facilities. Very welcoming and friendly group of people. I was so impressed that last year when I had another business to Kentucky, I especially rearranged my schedule so I could train there again. Great, great place.”

“Great gym, very family oriented. Instructors know their craft and relay it in a fun, professional way. Have been bringing my son (15) here for a while, and it’s always just the right balance of pushing him to make him better and tougher, but not over doing it to the point of breaking his spirit or causing him to give up. Everyone he rolls with makes it a challenge for him but also takes the time to help and teach with patience and care. I trust them completely to build his skill set without worrying about injuries. They defend that reputation and I have personally seen gym bullies be asked to leave and not return, as it should be. I’ve rolled with these guys a bunch myself, and they always bring it. Tough but safe training partners with ZERO egos. Excellent, tight-knit group…worth the drive for us.”
