What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Gabbie Gonzalez

"I started training when I was 10 months postpartum with my third child, carrying baby weight and having limited mobility in my hips. Nervous as heck because I had never been a part of a public exercise class or gym. I found myself welcomed with open arms to the women's class. After my first night I was hooked and could not wait to go back. For the past two years, all of my free time has been happily spent at the school. I'm currently 65lbs down from my starting weight with little exercise outside of jiujitsu. My two children ages 5 & 7 are taking classes 5 days a week along with my husband. House of salt not only became the safe space I needed to help change my mind and body, but has also helped the dynamic of my family in many ways. My children have benefited so greatly from the discipline and confidence that jujutsu gives them. In addition to all of the above I've met my very best friends here. Friends that have turned into family. When you walk in you will feel it too."

Kyle Wells

"Started training over a year ago and could not be happier with my choice to start at HOS. Having never trained a combat sport, I wasn’t sure what to expect before stepping on the mats. The welcoming atmosphere was immediately comforting, and the stellar instruction from Jesus and Sara made learning both challenging and rewarding. HOS has something for everyone, whether you’re looking to compete or just picking up a new hobby. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!"

Christina

"When I first entered House of Salt, I had no martial arts experience and was really just looking for a fun way to stay active (because I don’t like going to the gym) and to make new friends since I had recently moved to the area. I’ve been training for about 2 years now and can say that walking into HOS was the best decision I could’ve made. I love the mental and physical challenge that comes with practicing jiu-jitsu. But more than that, HOS is a very special place…the community is warm and welcoming, and the coaches are phenomenal. Highly recommend!!"

Jasmine Sanchez

"My son loves HOS! Coach Jesus is the best with the kids! He has made so much progress and his confidence and skills in and out of school have significantly improved. He always looks forward to his drills and seeing his friends. Highly recommend for kids and adults!"
