I went to Checkmat LYH and was immediately welcomed by an amazing group of people! Coach Rob, Kellie, and the other members of the gym were so helpful and patient with all the questions I had. I was only able to go for 2 months before graduating but in those 2 months the members became like family!

Professors Rob and Kellie are qualified instructors who care about the development, safety and progress of their students. On top of that, they have one of the cleanest and most welcoming academies I have trained at. Highly recommend.

I’ve been training Jiu-Jitsu for 20 years and recently traveled to Lynchburg and had the pleasure of training with Professor Rob and his wife. Professor Rob is a great instructor and has an awesome group of students that are also very friendly and welcoming. The professors at this location are VERY knowledgeable and are active on the competition circuit as well. The youth team is stellar as well. The kids are not only technical, they are also respectful and well mannered. If you’re thinking about starting jiu-jitsu, or martial arts, this is the place.

I traveled to Lynchburg , VA for job training in September. I hate missing a week from the regular school I go to near Dallas, TX, so I reached out to Professor Rob at Checkmat Jiu Jitsu in Lynchburg. He responded right away and welcomed me to train at the school. The coaches and students made me feel at home. I saw excellent training, had great rolls, and will always remember that experience.

I stopped in for a class during a business trip. Everything was great from start to finish. Professor Rob was very helpful and provided all class offerings over the phone. When I arrived at the gym, Professor Bryan and all the students were very welcoming. The instruction was top notch and the rolls were great. I would highly recommend Checkmat Lynchburg-Freedom Jiu Jitsu to anyone looking for solid Jiu Jitsu and a great environment.
