What Our Students Say

Jacob Mouro
"Known Jeff (the owner) my entire jiu jitsu career (10+years). No doubt the best place downriver for all your grappling needs (wrestling, submission grappling, BJJ). The definition of what a coach is. Sign up now before there's a waiting list !!"
Justin Broughton
"10/10 #would recommend I train here, my kids train here. The staff is amazing. Hands the best!!! The others that train there have the same mindset. We come to roll, learn, grow! Everyone is very respectful. We all understand we have jobs outside jiu-jitsu. They minimize injuries and teach the safe and proper way to execute techniques. Don't be shy we love new friends!!!"
Chelsea Tims
"We love Bear’s Den! Coach Jeff and Coach Andrea are great with the kids. Over the last few years they have not only learned BJJ, but also self-discipline, goal setting, compassion, and confidence."
