What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Roland Anderson

"I was invited to Fenrir Jiu Jitsu by the owner and my good friend Kyle, and I’m really glad I went. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was not only skilled but also super down-to-earth. As someone who’s never done jiu jitsu before, I honestly didn’t know what to expect—but the instructor took his time explaining each move clearly and gave everyone plenty of time to get comfortable with the basics before moving forward. I felt encouraged and supported the whole time. If you're thinking about giving jiu jitsu a try, this is a great place to start."

Crystal Friedle

"I’ve had an incredible experience at Fenrir Jiu-Jitsu Academy! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable, also truly passionate about teaching. They break down techniques clearly, are patient with beginners, and push more advanced students to reach their potential. The environment is respectful, safe, and encouraging, perfect for all ages and skill levels. Their kids class is just as amazing. Whether you’re looking to get in shape, learn self-defense, or seriously pursue jujitsu, this school has what you need. Highly recommend to anyone considering starting or continuing their jiu- jitsu journey!"

Regina Phillips

"I’ve been to a handful of other training facilities, and I have to say Fenrir is my favorite. I do BJJ as a hobby and for physical activity. As an older female, I can feel uncomfortable in a mostly male dominated space, but I’ve felt at ease here. The coach is approachable and scaffolds the curriculum well. I always feel like I can ask questions or ask to see something again. I never feel pressured to master something right away and appreciate the encouragement of the coach and other people there. If you are curious about self-defense and/or jiu-jitsu, I’d highly recommend you give Fenrir a try."

Bruce Wayne

"Fantastic atmosphere. Highly skilled, friendly, and accomodating, professors. After ten years in the art I learned several new ideas and techniques in just my first class. The kids class professor is to notch and great with kids. I really enjoyed that one professor was trained for MMA and street defense while the other teacher was very attuned to the students individual needs."
