Jessica Delgado
"Art In Motion has become more than a jujitsu gym for our family, to us it represent a second home. The coaches are knowledgeable and care about teaching our kids great quality Jiu Jitsu/wrestling as well as helping them become well rounded adults. I would recommend this gym to any parents or adult interested in embarking on the journey to becoming a black belt or just a place to get a great workout and surround yourself with positive people and energy."
Danny Delgado
"My son has been training Brazilian jiu Jitsu at Art in Motion for over a year now and I can’t say enough good things about this gym. He is now training wrestling and kickboxing there as well. From the moment I walked in with my family, I felt welcomed by both the coaches and the members. The atmosphere is incredibly supportive and everyone is here to help each other improve. A true team! The coaches are top notch with a lot of knowledge and experience and very welcoming. So much so, I enrolled myself and my 2 daughters in the kids program. The coaches break down high level techniques in a way that’s easy to understand, even for beginners like myself. I couldn’t have picked a better mma family to trust my kids with. I have actively recommended this gym to my friends and family and have had a handful of friends of mine enroll themselves and/or their kids and constantly thank me for the recommendation. AIM FOR GREATNESS"
