Joining Team Randori Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming, whether you’re a total beginner or an experienced grappler. The instructors are top-notch—knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about teaching. They do a phenomenal job of breaking down techniques in a way that’s easy to understand and apply, and they’re always willing to give personal feedback to help you grow. What really sets Team Randori BJJ apart is the culture. It’s a strong, respectful, and motivating community where everyone is pushing each other to get better—not just on the mats, but off them too. Whether you’re looking to compete, get in shape, or just learn something new, this is the place to do it. Also they have wrestling coaches for added exposure. Highly recommend to anyone looking for high-level instruction in a positive, ego-free environment. Thank you to all the coaches and teammates for creating such a great space to train!

Al and his professors are top notch. The facility is clean, everyone is friendly, and the education you receive is really good. I highly recommend Team Randori for beginners to BJJ. I’m a beginner and was made to feel welcome, part of the family, and never felt “like the new guy”. You will definitely get a great work out and will boost confidence in yourself by attending Team Randori!

Team Randori is a place for all levels of athlete. So far I have been trained by the owner Al and instructors Guilherme, Steve and Al. These guys care and want you to evolve. The other students also care and take the time to work with the new guys like me. I have been to other gyms and this has been the best experience I have had. Highly Recommend checking them out!

Team Randori is a special place. The coaching staff has a lot of great experience and more importantly is great at actually teaching and sharing it. They’ve also made a point of curating an academy roster full of respectful and safe training partners. Professor Al is always looking for ways to improve the experience for students, and also just happens to be a real good guy. Whether you’ve never tried BJJ before or are a grizzled vet new to the area and looking for a gym, you won’t find better.

I chose to step back into the world of martial arts and grappling after a 15 year break and nearing 40 years old. I had an idea of what I was looking for in my new gym and what my short and long-term goals were/are. After a lot of research and emails with gyms in the area, I had a one-on-one meeting with Professor Al. He shared every and anything he could about the gym and his students and also took the time to learn about me, my history, goals, limitations, and everything else. I knew pretty quickly that this was going to be the spot for me so I signed up. A few days later I was walking into my first class at 6:30am with a group of people I had never met before. That changed quickly, however, because everyone was very welcoming and happy to answer my questions and take the time to show me helpful techniques. Professor Al also made sure that I understood what to expect and what was expected of me as a member and training partner with my new teammates. In just a short period of time I'm back to feeling more comfortable on the mat, learning new and applicable skills that I never knew before, and am making friends with great, like-minded people who want to better themselves each day. If you're considering a new journey into martial arts or a new gym to continue to hone your skills, get in shape, meet great people, and build confidence I strongly recommend you come check out Team Randori. This is an excellent community with highly knowledgeable instructors (that still get on the mat and train) and teammates who want to help and challenge you to be better in each class.
