What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Jeff Shaw
"Jake Whitfield is a deeply knowledgable and passionate instructor of authentic Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Like his instructor Royce Gracie, the jiujitsu Jake teaches is a complete martial art, effective for self-defense and mixed martial arts as well as competition. No one loves jiu-jitsu more than Jake, and few can approach his teaching abilities. Don't miss the chance to learn from him!"
D'Juan
"Jake Whitfield is one of the most well-rounded martial artist on the East Coast! In addition to being a Jiu Jitsu black belt under Royce Gracie, Jake is also one of the most experienced, and successful professional MMA fighters in the Carolinas. Jake has mastered the application and instruction of the Gracie jiu jitsu self-defense system."
Corey Mathews
"Jakes a beast and an amazing instructor. I don't think anyone could ever find anything bad to say about this, my bjj progressed more in 3-4 months here than in the previous year at my last school. Super welcoming vibes here as well, everyone is very friendly and committed to helping each other improve safely, efficiently, and while having fun."
Jeremiah Campbell
"There is so much I could say about the gym and Royce Gracie Black Belt Jacob Whitfield. Clean Gym. Super instruction and attention to the smallest of details. It is amazing how they take a complex move and break it down in steps that even I could follow! lol. They are stress big on the self defense, which I love! I had a ton of great rolls with all levels of his students. If you want to learn any type of self defense, and get in shape at the same time this is the place to go. No others will come close."
