What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Lyncy Hodge
"We dropped in while on vacation. The warm ups had me dripping sweat. Awesome technique was shown. Students rolled great with women. Shout out to Coach Eli for being so inviting! Will definitely be coming back when we are in town!"
Adrian Waldo
"Cody is one of the best jiu-jitsu instructors I e had the pleasure of sharing the mats with. The school is a natural outcome of what happens when a person like him builds a culture of healthy competition and camaraderie. Cody could open a gym anywhere in the world and find success so this location in Holland is incredibly lucky to have him. I’d give him and the school 6 out of 5 stars if I could"
reinaldo lozada
"Great place great people! I got my blue belt from their Grand Rapids location at 39 yrs old in 2022 thanks to the coaches at that gym. I bring my 10 year old daughter to the kids class as well and she loves it! Proud of these guys for expanding, and the people of Holland should consider themselves blessed to have such a talented coaching team in their hometown!"
Steve Kozuch
"Great place for bjj in Holland. Plus they have a sight in GR you can go to with your membership. Mostly worked with Migel when I was going here and classes were great. Gi and Nogi but most people just go to gi classes. The other students are generally younger athletic guys that will work you. Only downside is my feet always seemed to get torn up here from the mat but I just started preemptively taping them. Recommend if you're in the area."
