Thrive Jiu Jitsu & Fitness

“I dropped in here while I was in town for work. Rich and his students were friendly and welcoming. Really effective and practical approach to teaching that allows for immediate pressure testing of concepts. The mats and whole space are clean and well set up. Looking forward to the next time. Thanks for having me. Phil from FL”

“Coach Rich welcomed me into Thrive Jiu Jitsu, helping me find my newest favorite hobby. Welcoming me in to his gym I was met with a warm atmosphere of guys and gals willing to share the experience/journey with me. Coach Rich is super knowledgeable about his teachings and Jiu Jitsu in general, breaking things down into simple concepts to which are later applied during the same sessions. Because of his experience, I’ve always left his sessions satisfied. For working out, learning self defense, the sport of jiu jitsu or even learning an important part of mixed martial arts, whatever my reason for the day, I always left feeling refreshed and at peak confidence. Really a great, welcoming, group of people looking to invite you in and better themselves with you, where I was able to work on my own schedule. Whether it was for the reasons listed above or for your own purpose, I highly recommend stopping by.”

“Stop scrolling and read this- I understand if you're feeling a bit hesitant about starting jiu jitsu. I was in the same boat before I joined Thrive Jiu Jitsu. But let me tell you, it turned out to be a fantastic decision that I should have done sooner! You may be like me- never had trained any martial art so I had no idea what to expect but I had always been curious and a fan of jiu jitsu. I wasn’t very much interested in the sport (I was proven wrong) but wanted another tool to help protect myself and those around me. If this is you and you’re putting off joining- just do it- you don’t need another reason to come challenge yourself with something new. Coach Richard is a fantastic instructor who is not only skilled in jiu jitsu but also passionate about teaching and helping his students grow. He takes the time to teach you the fundamentals and help you build confidence on the mats. Trust me, you'll be surprised at how quickly you'll start feeling comfortable and enjoying the journey. It's definitely a place where you can learn and have a great time regardless of your skill level! The facility is clean and well-maintained, and the classes are structured and engaging. It's a great place to learn self-defense, improve your fitness, and have a blast while doing it. Highly recommend checking it out”
