What Our Students Say

Katelyn Keith
"This place is great! I took my kids to the homeschool PE class and the owners were super friendly/welcoming. Very knowledgeable and inviting and the kids had a great time getting some movement. They clearly enjoy their work!"
Jonathan Morton
"I’m really early on in my Jiu Jitsu journey, but I’ve already had several opportunities to see the real world application of it as a Corrections Deputy. It has given me a greater level of confidence in use of force situations, and an ability to resolve them quickly, with less injuries to everyone involved. It has also helped me improve my cardiovascular fitness, and has been a great way to relieve stress. The coaches here are dedicated, and do everything they can to help you be successful, all you have to do is put the work in, and believe in the coaches/the process. Could not recommend MT Impact enough."
Schultz C
"Mt Hood Impact Jiu Jitsu is an excellent place to train, for both adults and kids. The coaches take extra time to help each individual learn bjj techniques and self defense in real world situations. They offer a variety of different classes to promote health, fitness, discipline, and the confidence to handle any situation you hope to never encounter. On top of all that, you feel like you are part of a family and never have to worry about favoritism or politics. Try it out and you won't regret it."
Paul Morgan
"I stopped by while traveling. Mr. Rodriguez was very welcoming and hospitable. The class had lots of good detail and the atmosphere was positive. Really enjoyed interacting and training with both Mr. Rodriguez and his students, who were all super friendly, welcoming, and great to roll with. Would definitely come back if in the area and recommend the gym to those interested in jujitsu."
