What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Jay M.
"I came here on a Friday during an "open mat" session. For those that don't know, open mat isn't a class where an instructor gives you moves and students practice them with other students. It's a session where fighters of all skill levels spar with each other. That would've been an intimidating setting for a total noob like me but everyone on the mat took time to show me the basics and helped to make me feel comfortable enough to ask my questions... And now I've found a new sport I'm really enjoying! Professor Kimo's built a warm and welcoming community so if you're on the fence about trying the sport, brush the nerves aside and we'll see you at the gym :) UPDATE: One year later and I'm still here. I've made new friends, earned medals, and gained a new family. Amazing place to learn and grow in the sport of jiu jitsu."
Edwin Pampo
"Professor Kimo is an awesome instructor! He teaches you the technique part by part and breaks it down. I can tell he cares for his students and loves his job! Based on my personal experience as a teammate, student and spectator he has phenomenal teaching and interpersonal skills. He has a great schedule and also has private lessons."
Ricardo Ochoa
"On of the best decisions ive made, i wish i could attend more but work gets doesnt let me. Been here since dec now and i love it. Kimo is the best and the guys ive met are all super cool. Always helping out. 10/10 in my opinion"
Jesselyn Cutchon
"We visited from NorCal and we had a great time training with Professor Kimo and his team for the week. The school has a great atmosphere and is very welcoming to all wanting to train. We came in early and watched the kids class… The coaches were laser focused on helping them use correct technique in each rep. We 1,000% recommend this academy!"
