What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Luis Rojas
"The highest priority for our daughter is her safety. We came in over a year ago and make no mistake the first day might be overwhelming but Professor Bill assured us that it's normal. In the second visit she wore her GI and was eager to be on the mat. The confidence our daughter has built definitely helped in kindergarten during a bullying incident. Professor Bill and his team helped teach how to neutralize whether from a standing or on your back. All parents love watching the kids during the belt ceremonies and even coming back from a competition to celebrate. Bill's Jiu-jitsu teaches all students respect, confidence and discipline."
Mateus Mota
"I’ve been training at Bill Jiu Jitsu for 2 months now, and it’s been an absolutely incredible experience! The atmosphere is welcoming and supportive, and the staff is incredibly knowledgeable. Bill, the head instructor, is not only an expert in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu but also has a genuine passion for teaching. His attention to detail and ability to break down complex techniques makes learning so much easier, no matter your skill level. The classes are well-structured, challenging, and fun, and the community at the academy is like a second family. If you're looking for a place to learn Jiu Jitsu, whether you're a beginner or advanced, Bill Jiu Jitsu is the place to be. Highly recommend!"
Ann Bolebruch
"This is a fantastic place with a dedicated husband and wife team and well trained assistants that teach every age group from 4 years old to adult. Our granddaughter attends and we are not only impressed with how and what she is learning on the physical end but also life lessons. Ava attends one hour sessions 3 times per week and when we attend can see her self confidence growing as well as her respect for herself and others. Teacher Bill as well as all involved work on the mats and hands on showing the classes not only how to do the various holds but what are the results of correct and incorrect actions. At a recent class I listened to Instructor Bill challenge his students to always do the most difficult task at home or school as that is what will make you a better person...how often do you hear others offering that challenge? I cannot give this place a higher rating than a 5 and suggest you stop in with your child or grandchild and not only see but experience a truly professional organization that will help you and your children become better persons."
Reese Edwards
"I can’t praise Bill BJJ enough. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and included by both the instructors and students. The atmosphere is genuinely friendly and supportive, and the adult class accommodates all skill levels, allowing everyone to progress at their own pace. Professor Bill is highly skilled and knowledgeable, balancing technical details with big-picture concepts. His dedication to his students’ growth, on and off the mat, is clear in everything he does. If you’re serious about self-defense and personal growth, this is the place to be. Highly recommended!"
