What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Natalia Gonzalez

"I can’t say enough great things about Active Jiu Jitsu! As a woman, finding a space that feels safe, supportive, and empowering is so important — and this gym delivers on all fronts! The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and respectful, and the overall environment is welcoming to students of all levels. There's a strong sense of community, and I’ve always felt encouraged and valued here. They also offer amazing programs for kids that build confidence, discipline, and skills in a fun and positive environment. Plus, the addition of Judo classes gives students even more opportunities to grow and diversify their training! Whether you're brand new to BJJ or more experienced, this is an amazing place to train, grow, and feel safe doing it."

Lidia Adams

"I LOVE Active Jiujitsu! Professors Luiz and Rose have done an incredible job of developing a family friendly culture that’s encouraging, challenging and fun! My father in law, my son and myself all train here, my husband will also join soon. As a 35 year old mother of 2 I didn’t imagine Jiujitsu would become a part of my “self care” routine and that I would train almost everyday (I started about 4 months ago), but now I couldn’t imagine myself without it. Everyone is so friendly, kind and encouraging of me as a beginner. The environment here is one of learning, camaraderie, pushing yourself to get better, and humility. I feel lucky and grateful to be a part of this community. I can go on and on with the benefits, especially now with the awesome addition of Judo with the awesome Sensei Ramon for my 8 year old son; the growth he’s experienced is paying dividends in every area of his life, from school to home. Even my youngest who is 2 and not training is being positively influenced while he waits for big bro to finish class. If you’re thinking about trying jiujitsu, I cannot recommend Active enough!"

Grant Posell

"Started about a month ago with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, all of the staff have given me warm welcomes every time I attend. The professors are all very knowledgeable and provide a non confrontational environment. I feel like I’ve gone from knowing nothing to be able to disarm someone who may attack me. Definitely worth the investment and definitely a huge workout! Come join!"

Andres & Gaby Huaman

"We love Active Jiu Jitsu! From day one this place has been a blessing to our family. Professor Rose, Gaby, Mr. Ramon, Mr. Andy and every staff person here is incredible!!! They explained everything thoroughly, offer 45 to 1 hour classes 5-6 days a week and communicate so well. I never have to call and ask, “Will you be closed on…?” Our experience has been nothing but the best here! Our entire family has made friends! Our daughter was welcomed and loved on by not only the staff but the kids in all of her classes. During her first week, our daughter didn’t get something right and that made her sad. One of the older kids loved on her so well which made her feel so much better. That meant the world to her and us! So grateful for this place!!!"
