Katrina Lee
"I began taking classes at Firehouse about 3 months ago and have loved every class and instructors since coming. The atmosphere is welcoming and really is a community of people that are excited to help you learn. Instructors are knowledgeable and meet you where you are on your journey. Also my daughter has been taking their kids class for at least 6 months and the instructors are amazing. Great program."
Trenton B
"I've been training here for a while now, and I can honestly say it's one of the most welcoming and supportive places you could find for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. No matter your background, experience level, or goals, the team here meets you where you are. They’re not only skilled but also incredibly kind and attentive, making sure you feel safe and that you're learning without risking injury. They guide you when you’re uncertain, encourage you when you need it, and truly look out for you. It’s a place where you can grow competitively if that’s your goal, or just come to learn and enjoy a fantastic community. Highly recommended for beginners and experienced practitioners alike."
T Tex
"Sometimes you walk into a place expecting respect, accountability, and, community and end up deeply disappointed. I’ll leave it at that. Do not expect professionalism here."
John Sesk
"Been training here for a few months(with zero experience) and I have never felt more welcomed anywhere else! The instructors are amazing and the people you train with are great too. I would recommend this gym to anyone! It’s absolutely worth trying it out! And if your experienced there’s plenty of experienced people to train with as well!"
