"Stopped in for a couple classes while passing through town on a road trip.. this place is huge, clean, all the students are friendly, the professor is a BJJ champion and extremely welcoming.. I couldn’t have had a better experience… I highly recommend this place!! The hardest part of jiu jitsu is walking through the front door, and it was a pleasure walking through theirs"

"Absolutely the best. Jeremy and his team go above and beyond for everyone. The best Jiu Jitsu I’ve ever been blessed to be part of… I’ve now been training here now for 10 years!! Great instruction, tough rolls, amazing people. Jeremy leads with God at the front and it shows in how the people of this gym and how they treat each other. The hardest class is the first class! Then you’ll regret not coming in sooner! What are you waiting for just come in and try it! Stop reading this review and walk though the door!"
