Highly Recommended! Dark Arts Jiu Jitsu has been an incredible experience for my son and our family. Since joining, my son has not only improved in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu but also grown tremendously in confidence and as an individual. The life skills he’s gained here go far beyond the mat. I’ve also had the chance to attend some of the adult classes, and the environment is just as welcoming. The group is friendly, supportive, and always willing to work with beginners, which makes learning such a technical art feel approachable and enjoyable. What truly sets Dark Arts apart is the sense of family. Chris, the owner, fosters a wonderful community by hosting events where kids and adults come together, making the school feel like much more than just a training facility. Overall, this school is fantastic. Whether you're looking for personal growth, a great workout, or a welcoming community, I couldn’t recommend it more!

We’ve been going to Dark Arts Jiu Jitsu in Walden for about 2 months now, and we’re already seeing a big difference in our kids. Coach Chris is amazing with all age groups—our 4-year-old is in the Mighty Mights program and her confidence has grown so much in such a short time. Our twins and older daughter are in the junior class, and they absolutely love it. Chris knows how to keep it fun, challenging, and respectful. Can’t wait to see how much more they grow with time. Highly recommend!

Dsrk Arts has been a fantastic experience for our kids (10 and 13). While my wife is the one usually taking them to class, I've seen firsthand how much they've grown since starting. She's always sending me videos of them practicing their moves and I'm so impressed with their progress! Knowing that the instructors are providing them with such high-quality, individualized attention gives me real peace of mind. It's more than just learning self-defense; they're developing important life skills like discipline and focus. And I can personally vouch for the awesome community at Dark Arts! I joined the adult classes for a while and it was a blast. Everyone is super welcoming and supportive, regardless of your skill level. It's a great way to get in shape, learn something new, and make some solid friends. Highly recommend Dark Arts for the whole family!
