"The experience at Cogito was like no other. The Jiu Jitsu specialist Benjamin is more than capable of showing anyone from any experience level whether skilled or amateur. Training here was what I had been a great highlight of my life and I would recommend anyone who wants to give Jiu Jitsu a try."
Shannon
"Great experience thus far. The owners are very welcoming and really care about their student’s learning. My first class was a guest black belt of 24+ years and was a once in a lifetime experience! I am honored to be a member of this gym 💪🏼"
Critical Thinking
"Attended the open gym last Saturday, and it was a great time! I was nervous and did not know what to expect. Ben did an excellent job explaining moves, counters and the importance of maintaining control. There was a high level of intensity, but also respect and humility from everyone in attendance. Highly recommend"
