Hendo BJJ

“My son and I have been training at Hendo BJJ for almost four years now, and it’s truly become a second home for us. What sets it apart isn’t just the solid foundation in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu passed down through the Gracie lineage, or even Professor Larry’s 30+ years of experience—it’s the culture. The coaches, both in the adult and kids programs, genuinely care about each person’s growth, safety, and confidence on the mat. It’s a place where you’re not just learning BJJ—you’re joining a community. If you’ve ever thought about trying it, come see what makes this place special.”

“I’ve been training at Hendo for over two and a half years, and I have nothing but good things to say. Professor Larry focuses on traditional Jiu‑Jitsu and practical self‑defense. Classes typically start with technique instruction, followed by partner drilling to reinforce what you’ve learned.”

“Our kids began taking Jiu Jitsu at this gym a year ago. It wasn’t long after they began, that my husband and I also joined because our kids were enjoying it so much. Professor Larry, his team of qualified coaches and the other members have been so helpful and encouraging throughout this new path for us. As a petite, 50 year old it has certainly been empowering as well. Between the knowledge I’ve gained from the classes and the two Girls on Guard Safety Defense Workshops I’ve attended, I have more confidence that I would be able to defend myself from anyone at any age or size if need be. It’s been equally fascinating to watch the confidence and discipline it continues to build in our kids (ages 12 & 15)! The icing on the cake is that It’s just a great community of people to hang out with! I highly recommend this gym for those of all ages and physical fitness abilities that have an interest in learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! 5 ⭐️’s all around!”

“I didn't know what to expect but what I appreciated most was the focus on real-life scenarios, which made the training feel highly relevant. The instructor emphasized the importance of awareness and letting others know of our comfort zone, which normally are overlooked. The environment was supportive and non-intimidating, making it easy to learn and practice new skills. This class is ideal for anyone looking to boost their confidence and acquire practical self-defense skills. It’s a valuable investment in personal safety and well-being and I highly recommend.”

“Attended a women's self-defense class at Hendo BJJ and I couldn't be more thrilled! The class was both empowering and exhilarating. The instructors were incredibly skilled and made complex techniques easy to grasp, all while keeping the atmosphere upbeat and supportive. I left feeling more confident, strong, and ready to take on anything. If you're looking for a way to boost your self-defense skills while having a blast, this class is definitely for you! Highly recommend it!”
