Estacada Athletic Arts, Chess Lab BJJ

“Our son’s confidence and life skills that he is building is difficult to match outside of Juijitsu. The atmosphere and energy is electric. My kid feels safe and confident and being local is a blessing. More small towns need to have something like this to offer. Great coaches and affordable!!!”

“I only have been doing bjj for a few weeks and I love it! Bjj truly is giving me more purpose in life by keeping me in shape, giving me something to look forward to, and all the cool people I have met! Coach Bryan is amazing at coaching techniques. It is just great to have a place like this near me! Way better than a regular gym. I look forward to training here long term”

“Happy to have a local gym that's close by. My kids can train and be prepared to defend themselves against dangerous situations. Also, pleased I can take my baby with me to boot camp and yoga. Getting it while being a busy mom. Check them out!”

“My kids have been in multiple forms of martial arts for the greater portion of their life. We were eager to find a gym closer to home to better fit our schedule. Nervous for change, we took the plunge and did a trial here. I can say the atmosphere here is different. A completely judgement free, inviting and friendly space, it truly feels like home. We love it here! Coaches are great- patient, kind, and eager to share their knowledge and skills. There is something here for the whole family.”

“Fantastic BJJ gym that also has kids boxing, yoga and various fitness programs. Great coaching staff that also has support from a larger affiliate of gyms ( American Top Team in Portland plus around a dozen other BJJ gyms in the Pacific NW) that gives you access to a wide network. For a new gym in a small town there is a wealth of experienced members of blue belts through black belts with a emphasis of training new members without prior experience. Highly recommend you check it out!”
