Canton Warriors BJJ Academy

"Coach Derrick at Warrior Academy in Canton is an incredible mentor and teacher. He goes beyond jiujitsu, instilling confidence, discipline, and respect in every student. He genuinely cares—checking on grades, encouraging growth, and pushing kids to be their best on and off the mats. Our daughter looks up to him, and we’re so grateful for his impact."

"We’ve been at this school for years now. It has become a second home for our kids. Coach Derrick not only teaches the kids JiuJitsu, but he also teaches them to be all around good humans. He encourages them to be the best version of themselves. Our kids have learned and grown so much. We appreciate everything he does."

"From the very first time we stepped foot in this gym a few years ago we felt a very strong connection. Coach Derrick is more than a martial arts Coach, he is a mentor to the kids. You can tell he actually cares about them. He teaches Jiujitsu in a fun encouraging yet very disciplined manner. He not only gets the kids to love him but we as parents respect and trust him. My girls level of confidence has increased so much since joining the gym. Its a family vibe here and everyone is friendly and inviting. So if you're looking for a Jiujitsu gym for your children or even yourself, they're prices are very reasonable and you will be welcomed with open arms."

"I’ve attended Derrick and Rachel’s gym for years now and I can truly say without a doubt I’ve never felt more at home and welcomed over the years proud to have them as friends. If you’re looking for a place to learn Jiujitsu for your kids or yourself look no further. Derrick offers multiple classes for children and adults as well as advanced classes he’s always happy to roll with any student or talk he makes time for everyone around him you can tell his students and school truly matter to him. Just stop by and introduce yourself I guarantee you won’t be disappointed."
