What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Anna Melvin
"We enrolled our daughter in beginner BJJ classes at Hero after researching the gyms in this area. We definitely made the right choice as she has loved the overall experience as well as the coaches and her fellow students. The flexibility of the schedule has been great for her because she does play another sport. The cost is fairly priced and transparent. Hero’s kids program is clearly not an afterthought. The kids train seriously while having a blast and you can tell that they are being prepared to be the future leaders of the gym. We are very happy to be part of the Hero family!"
Rick Cote
"HERO Jiu Jitsu is a great and welcoming place to train for both adults and kids! My son and I have been training Jiu Jitsu with Hector (AKA-Tony) for 4+ years and it just keeps getting better. Hector & Phil are top notch instructors/coaches and have created a tight knit community where it is fun to learn. I Highly recommended for anyone looking to start training Jiu Jitsu!"
Lee Andron
"Great for kids and adults, Tony runs a great Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy! I’ve taken classes to learn fundamentals. Tony trains Champions!"
Ryan Cook
"A wonderful community, fantastic instructors, clean! And family friendly. At Hero you will be welcomed with open arms! The staff is incredibly friendly and everyone on the mats are always helpful. The kids program is one of the best I’ve seen and a phenomenal way for kids to burn energy while building a skill. If you’re genuinely ready to make a change for the better in your life you need to check this place out."
