What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
David Natoli
"If you’re looking for a great place to train or even to start your Jiu Jitsu journey, Devine BJJ on Daniel island is the place to go in the Charleston area! I only got in a few sessions before moving home, but I was welcomed like a long-time member. Tom Sheehan and the instructors were very knowledgeable and even took the time during my sessions to teach me one on one applicable skills for my job. Highly recommend Devine BJJ!!"
Thomas Toshkoff
"I dropped in for 2 weeks and I couldn't have felt more welcomed. Everyone from the instructor to all the white belts were awesome. Tom Sheehan spent every class thoroughly explaining all the techniques in fine detail, to the point that I don't think I'll ever forget any of them for a long time. I stayed to roll after class and, again, everyone was super nice and extremely knowledgeable. If you're in the area for any reason, I HIGHLY recommend you stop by at this gym."
Tom Masciantonio
"This gym is amazing! Came in for a Saturday morning open mat, and they had a great turnout. Everyone was extremely welcoming and willing to share tips and tricks. The owner, Tom Sheehan, is an absolute jiu jitsu wizard! If you are going to train BJJ in Charleston, you are doing a disservice to yourself by not training with Tom. Amazing culture and vibe."
Shane Fagan
"The best in town. I was gonna try other gyms, but didn’t feel the need after here. Tom and company are both so inviting and skilled, everyone from purple to white was getting good, specific instruction, with ample time to test it after. I wish I could’ve stayed longer, but please go support if you’re in Charleston. Thank you!"
