What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Natalie Caro
"My child has been going to DM bjj for a few months now, we signed him up so that he would learn some self defense and hoped he’d grow a little self confidence. In such a short amount of time he has not only learned self defense but we have seen him change in so many positive ways. He walks tall, and has self confidence that radiates. Confidence, discipline, respect, manners, and details are just a few things that these professors teach. The character that is built into these kids in this academy is by far worth more than 5 stars. Every single coach has their own part in teaching and building these kids from the inside out. THANK YOU professor DM & coaches."
Jeffry Brake
"I have been training here for over a year. BJJ was/is completely new to me. The academy has a good mix of newer and more experienced people, as well as varying degrees of competitiveness. Professor Dimitri does a fantastic job of simplifying the drills and movements for a person of my skill level that is new (and older in age) to the sport. The more experienced people have been very patient and supportive. I highly recommend giving DMBJJ a look."

"I've been training at DMBJJ for nearly two years and it made me fall in love with the sport of Jiu Jitsu. Professor Dimitrios has established an exceptional martial art school that welcomes everyone, whether you're a combat sports enthusiast or someone looking to improve fitness and learn self-defense. The coaches and instructors are always ready to assist with any needs on the mat. The classes are well-structured with thoughtfully designed and practical drills that are beneficial not only for Jiu Jitsu but also for real-life situations. The atmosphere of the academy is fantastic. Everyone brings a positive and welcoming energy. Overall, I am extremely pleased with my decision to join this academy and represent our team in competitions. I strongly recommend it to anyone interested in learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in a safe and organized environment. See you on the mat. Oss!"
