Native Jiu Jitsu

“I was in the area for a business trip and dropped in to train. Professor Carlos, Coach Papagaio, Coach Felipe and the students immediately made me feel welcomed. I felt as part of the gym instead of a visitor. The facilities are great and the teaching top-notch. I learned techniques and principles that will be incorporated into my game. Whether you live in the area or are visiting, I highly recommend this gym!”

“We tried Native because we were looking for something for the kids to do during the winter between sports seasons. Seven months later we are here five days a week and my kids never want to miss a day. The schedule lets parents attend class at the same time as their kids. A lot of parents sign their kids up for activities but don’t make time for themselves and this is a perfect way to have protected,built in workouts in your schedule. The gym is incredibly welcoming- any worries you have about not knowing how to start or not knowing what you’re doing will disappear as soon as you come for your first day. I had never done any kind of martial arts or wrestling before. Also- This is an especially welcoming and safe environment for women whether you join the regular classes or women’s only classes. I have seen my kids grow confidence and discipline and find a passion for self Improvement like I have never seen in them before. They have quickly made close friends at the gym that they look forward to seeing everyday. We also have a new hobby to share, talk about and practice together.”

“Native BJJ is absolutely fantastic! Whether you’re a kid or an adult, this place feels like family. While they do emphasize competitiveness, it’s never at the expense of respect or a positive environment. Kids are treated with care and pushed in a healthy, supportive way to challenge themselves and grow. Adults of all ages and skill levels are welcome, and the coaches do a great job accommodating everyone to ensure safe and effective training…no need to worry about injuries. Coaches Carlos, Papagaio, Felipe, Aaron, Jake and the entire team are truly outstanding. Their passion and dedication make all the difference. I highly recommend Native BJJ to anyone looking for a strong, respectful, and inspiring martial arts community!”

“As soon as I put a foot in Native I felt at home. The owners Carlos and Mariely greeted me and my kids with a warm welcome. All the coaches are very professional and dedicated to teaching all the kids. If would highly recommend Native Jiu Jitsu if you are looking to learn Jiu Jitsu!”

“This is hands down the best jiu-jitsu gym around, especially for kids. The coaches are amazing with children patient, supportive, and truly focused on helping them grow both on and off the mats. The sense of community here is something special. It feels like family every time we walk through the doors. If you’re looking for a place where your child can learn discipline, confidence, and real skills in a positive environment, this is it!”
