Strive Jiu Jitsu Academy

“Strive has been my Jiu Jitsu home since 2019. Professor Manny and Coach Meredith have built and maintained an environment and culture where positivity flourishes and personal growth is guaranteed. If you want to learn how to protect yourself and the people you love, Strive is the place to do it. If you want your kids to learn how to be respectful and physically capable while having a blast with their friends, Strive is the place to take them. Nothing but love and hard work at this place!”

“I started at strive less than 4 months ago and have been so satisfied with the academy since day 1. The environment is extremely welcoming and full of love. Each and every individual in there is kind and respectful. The most valuable part of choosing an academy is finding the right professor. Professor Manny Rocha is very engaging. Providing skill and confidence in each individual student. He is a very strong leader. I could not be happier here at Strive!”

“Stopped in for an open mat. Everyone was very welcoming and the training was great. Would highly recommend checking out this gym.”

“There isn't enough space to express how amazing this academy has been for me and my family. My son takes the kids jiu jitsu class here and it has been amazing to watch his growth and development since he has been coming. All of the coaches foster a caring environment while pushing each kid to their very best. They understand kids aren't 'one size fits all' and work with each kid to the best of their ability. All the other kids are encouraging and are great role models for the younger children as well. I train in the adult classes and can't recommend this place enough as a place to train striking and jiu jitsu. The coaches are fantastic, the teammates are welcoming and helpful, no one will ever make you feel out of place here! And they do a 1 week trial for anyone who wants to start!”

“Best gym in the area! Family friendly/oriented and multiple class options. Very reasonable membership prices and flexible. If you’re somebody who has never grappled or stepped foot on a mat, this is the place to get started. If you’re trying to be a high level competitor, Strive is THE place to go. If you have children, sign em’ up and train too, but if that’s not the case, Strive ALSO HAS a kids room for all children to enjoy as their parents train. Coach Manny, Meredith, and Ryan are all tremendous leaders who are capable of teaching even the most intricate techniques to beginners, as well as seasoned athletes. This review then presents a dire question; why would you train anywhere else?”
