Walt Cobb
"I started training at Border Martial Arts a couple of weeks ago and couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming and supportive group. From day one, everyone has been friendly, helpful, and made me feel like part of the team. I highly recommend it to anyone curious about BJJ—definitely give a trial class a shot!"
