What Our Students Say

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

Cassie Schroeder

"We have loved American Jiu Jitsu Academy! Coach Josh is the best and is so great with the kids. He’s very good at teaching and is super knowledgeable in all things martial arts! Highly recommend!!!"

Mikell Kolod

"My family and I have been with AJJA for a bit now, and we love it. As a woman, I was a little nervous about starting Kickboxing and Jiujitsu, but the vibe here is super chill. My favorite is doing Tuesday and Thursdays kickboxing classes. Definitely feels great to throw punches at the husband. The workouts are tough but fun, and the Coach Josh breaks everything down so it’s easy to remember and drill. My 11 year old son has thrived learning the art of Jiu Jitsu, and the kids classes are top notch! You won’t be disappointed and you will see results! Overall, this gym has been an awesome experience. It’s a supportive community, and I’m definitely getting stronger, both physically and mentally. If you're a woman looking to get into martial arts, or a family who is interested in starting your jiujitsu game, I highly recommend American Jiu Jitsu Academy."

Adam Reid

"AJJA is a special place and Josh is the man. I was in town for the week visiting and he and the school were so inviting. Everyone made me feel welcome and Josh's classes are fantastic. I never felt like a guest - Josh gave me tons of help and attention as if I were a full-time student at AJJA. If I lived here I would join this academy in a flash and hope to stop in again our next trip to Bentonville. Highly recommend!"

Alicia Chop

"I am so happy to have found American Jiu Jitsu Academy! Our son trained with Coach Josh for years at another facility, recently we made the choice to change gyms and I am so grateful that Coach Josh opened his own gym! Even my youngest son, who had stopped training due to overwhelming class sizes, has restarted and loves it! The training is thoughtful and the instruction is even better!"
