Watershed Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

“Watershed is a unique gym with high-quality instruction and an incredibly welcoming environment. Over the past year and a half of training here, I have not only developed practical skills but also felt like a part of a community. If you have ever been even remotely interested in self-defense, martial arts, or any combat sport this is the place for you. I came in knowing nothing and worried I would struggle to learn, but with Shawn, Darcy, and a whole community at Watershed you can leave that fear at the door. Shawn and Darcy have created a space that makes you excited to put on your Gi and train.”

“Watershed is a fantastic jits club! Coaches Shawn and Darcy could not have been more warm and welcoming, and they've done an excellent job kindling a close-knit team. They also provide outstanding instruction in the kids' and adults' programs, and I'm grateful for the experience!”

“Watershed Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been an amazing experience for our family in every way possible. Shawn and Darcy not only excel at teaching the art of Jiu-Jitsu but also create an environment of respect, discipline, and encouragement that empowers each child and student. What truly sets Watershed apart, though, is the compassionate team who go above and beyond for their students and families. During a challenging financial time, the instructors graciously offered a discount to allow my kids to continue training—a gesture of kindness and support that we will never forget. This isn’t just a gym; it’s a community that genuinely cares. For any parent looking for a place where children can thrive, learn invaluable skills, and be surrounded by positive role models, I wholeheartedly recommend Watershed Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It’s a rare place where both skill and character development come together beautifully, thanks to the incredible dedication of the Watershed team.”

“Our kids are in the Mat Munchkins class to start learning the basics of Jiu Jitsu. Coach Darcy is the absolute best! She’s so patient with the kids while also teaching them to have fun, be careful and respectful and how to defend themselves. This is the best decision we’ve made for our kids. We absolutely love Watershed!!!”

“Watershed Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has made a huge impact on our son. He was searching for an activity that would engage him, and he definitely found it here, all thanks to Shawn and Darcy. What really sets them apart is not just their skill in teaching techniques, but their exceptional ability to connect with each student. They truly care about the growth of every individual, ensuring that each child feels supported, comfortable, and motivated throughout their journey. If you’re a parent looking for a place where your kids can build confidence, learn valuable life skills, and thrive in a supportive community, I wholeheartedly recommend Watershed Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.”
