“I have been training BJJ for 18 years and let me tell ya, North Star BJJ is an exceptional gym! Incredible instructors, facilities, and overall vibe of the place is just fantastic. Clean, safe, and great techniques. I will be going back here as often as possible.”

“Absolutely love this gym! Whether you’re brand new to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or a seasoned grappler passing through town, this place is a gem. The owners are incredibly kind and genuinely care about creating a welcoming, respectful environment. As a female, I’ve always felt safe, supported, and included here. It’s super convenient for both gi and no-gi drop-ins, and the vibe is laid-back but focused, you’ll get great rolls and solid instruction without any ego. The free intro class is also an awesome way to get started if you’re curious but unsure. Highly recommend checking it out whether you’re local or just visiting!”

“Dropped in for some classes for our boys because our current gym was closed for reno. Michael and Dylan were great! Great awareness of all kids’ abilities, made corrections to moves when needed. Even with a larger class size, they were able to make it around to everyone. Lastly, got to see a brand new student with them and they made her feel comfortable and she fit right in to the class.”
