Ferny Jiu Jitsu

“We have been bringing our daughters to Ferny for one year and it has been a very good experience. He has a good team helping and the kids get a lot of experience from different kids from different weight and ages. Our kids have evolved as athletes and have received a warmed welcome to the team. Ferny is a marine Veteran and has his standards high from parents and kids, the way it should be. He is great role model and is a good person your children can be around.”

“Ferny Jiu-Jitsu offers an outstanding program led by a coach who truly stands out. Ferny’s background in the Marine Corps is reflected in his meticulous attention to detail and the way he structures his classes. He emphasizes teaching precise techniques while encouraging students to think critically and develop their skills independently. What really sets Ferny apart is the community he fosters. From organizing fun games during classes to hosting parties and group gatherings, he creates a welcoming environment that feels like family. At tournaments, his team always has the strongest presence, ensuring no one ever feels alone. If you’re looking for a coach who combines expert instruction with a supportive, family-oriented atmosphere, Ferny is the perfect choice.”

“I started training at Ferny Jiu Jitsu when I was around 14 years old. Greatest decision I had made. First week I wanted to quit, but Ferny picked me up and gave me a pep talk so I went back in and got back on the mat. Years later my brother and I came back to Ferny Jiu Jitsu and he was still welcoming with open arms, very supportive, a great role model, and makes sure everyone feels welcome. Here at FJJ we are a big family. We do seminars, celebrate birthdays, at the end of the year he gives trophy’s, medals, and a belt for those who have done a certain amount of tournaments, and many other things! One of the many things I see and know about Ferny is he always gives it his 1,000% all, goes above and beyond for not only the kids, but also the parent's, is always patient with everyone. I will never regret starting at Fern Jiu Jitsu. If you want to train with the best, start at FJJ!”

“I cannot recommend Ferny Jiu-Jitsu enough! My son, who is an only child and homeschooled, has been training here for several months, and the transformation has been incredible. Not only has he gained physical strength, but his confidence and assertiveness have skyrocketed. Professor Ferny, a 3rd-degree black belt, is an exceptional teacher. His deep knowledge of jiu-jitsu really shines, and he knows how to make each class both challenging and fun. One thing I really appreciate is the gym’s philosophy on earning your stripes "Where everything is earned, not given." They are not handed out easily, which teaches my son the value of hard work, perseverance, and discipline. It’s a great lesson in life that goes beyond just jiu-jitsu. Ferny Jiu-Jitsu is also a competition gym, and they regularly join tournaments. It's been such a great experience for my son to be part of a team that pushes him to compete and grow, all while fostering a strong sense of discipline and sportsmanship. The gym has a warm, family-oriented atmosphere, which has been perfect for us. We’ve felt welcomed from day one. The prices are also very reasonable compared to other gyms, and it’s clear that they truly care about the students’ growth—not just in jiu-jitsu, but in life. If you're looking for a place that offers both a supportive environment and the opportunity for competition, this is definitely the place to be!”

“The owner/Professor/Coach was very knowledgeable in what our kids were ready for. We took both for a free try out. Our eldest, he said he was ready for the mat. Our youngest, he said not yet, to wait another year for her. He could have said yes sign them both up, just for the money but he didn't. This helped me trust him in the beginning. A year and a half later, my husband, daughter and I have all joined my son on the mat. Why? Because this is a welcoming family environment that we get to be apart of. Ferny goes above and beyond not only for the kids, but the whole family with different events throughout the whole year. My son is coming up on 2 years of being there and I can already see a difference in his confidence. It's always free to try for your children or yourself. Kids classes are Tuesday-Friday 5:30pm-6:30pm. Adults classes are same days at 6:30pm-7:30pm”
