What Our Students Say

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

Sionann Ghahremani

"I love training at this gym! Very chill and welcoming vibe"

Michele Montenegro

"Love training here. Professor Kahlil, is very knowledgeable, experienced and kind. He's been actively competing for years and has earned 7 world titles. He breaks down complex techniques and makes sure everyone understands. There's always good vibes at this place."

Anthony Loperi

"I started training with Professor Kahlil in 2016 as a white belt at the recommendation of my Rugby team (in my Captain's words: "body control is body control"). Since starting training with him I have branched off to other forms of combat sports in addition to playing Rugby another three years. Out of all the gyms and instructors I have worked with, I have had the best BJJ progress and most applicable results with Professor Kahlil. He answered some very non BJJ questions I had, helped me drill, get comfortable mentally and physically, and helped my MMA fight IQ significantly. When I had a very difficult schedule to work with for two years, I toured the area attending any BJJ open mats and taking free sessions to keep my training up. While there were a lot of places that had built a solid training regiment for its students, it was uncomfortable being the occasional outsider and I found I was much less able to ask questions and get the kind of answers I had before. Once I changed jobs, I found Professor Kahlil here and came right back. I might not be able to take a hit or a tackle like I used to but Professor Kahlil has given me the blueprints for my BJJ game and how to incorporate it into my fighting style. I owe him a lot and you would too if you come attend a session."

Tim Lee

"Very clean location, friendly instructor and students. As technical or recreational as you'd like!"
