"I’ve been training here for about 3 years now and the coaches and environment here have completely changed my life for the better. I went from hating Jiu Jitsu and not wanting to go once a week, to going multiple times a week and helping coach the kids classes. I can’t recommend trying out Ares Peoria enough."
"I always made excuses for not starting to train, especially getting close to 50. But I'm glad I did; although I'm extremely out of shape, I get better each day. Everyone is helpful and encouraging. This is the place to go if you're looking for a BJJ gym. I'm looking forward to learning more each time I go. It's never too late."
"Joined in December, the coaches are amazing. Wish I had more time to go more often but they definitely help in every aspect of your game. Recommend for everyone and anyone learning something new!"
"Allied is friendly & welcoming Jiu Jitsu gym. The Coaches are first class & have trained w/ some of the toughest Jiu Jitsu practitioners in the world. The knowledge they have acquired through years of experience is the basis for their training & the periods of instruction are presented in an organized & easy to follow manner. The Coaches ensure you understand the techniques & can make adjustments for any limitations you may have physically. The training mats are top of the line & are kept clean. Allied is safe & fun environment where you are more than a student you are family."
