Al Odesskiy
"Great instructors and an incredible atmosphere! Both my son and I attend classes here, and we genuinely look forward to every session. The adult class, led by Santino, is outstanding, he’s a skilled and patient instructor who breaks down each move into clear, simple steps and takes the time to review them thoroughly. The attention to detail and personalized instruction make all the difference. This school is truly a worthwhile investment in yourself, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to grow their skills in a supportive and motivating environment."

"Our 5-year-old son has been attending Codella Jiu-Jitsu Academy for a year, and it’s been an incredible experience. The coaches are fantastic, knowing each child’s name and fostering a welcoming, family-like atmosphere. They set clear expectations for the kids, encouraging them to meet the standards of the class, which has greatly boosted our son’s confidence. He loves every session and has grown both in skill and self-assurance. We highly recommend Codella for any family looking for a supportive environment that helps children thrive."
Krystal Parascandola
"I'm beyond impressed with the progress my 6-year-old daughter has made at Codella Academy! In just three short months, she's not only learned new skills and tactics, but her confidence has soared. The instructors are top-notch, providing a supportive and encouraging environment that allows students to thrive. Their patience, expertise, and passion for jujutsu are evident in every class. Watching my daughter develop physically, emotionally, and socially has been an incredible experience. I've seen her grow from a shy beginner to a confident, enthusiastic young martial artist. I highly recommend Codella Academy to anyone looking for a world-class jujutsu program that truly cares about its students' growth and development. Five stars isn't enough – I'd give them ten stars if I could! A heartfelt thank you to Rita and all the coaches at Codella Academy!"
