Jason Robert
"As I write this I’ve been at Legacy for nearly a year. This is not my first Jui Jitsu gym and I waited to write this review. I joined Legacy as it was convenient for my schedule to go multiple times a week and I had some friends that have been doing Jui Jitsu for years who recommended them for instruction and being a clean, well run gym. My honest opinion is that the instruction here is too notch. They do an excellent job not just explaining the techniques, but also the theory and application behind them. The students are made to be respectful and it is very much a learning environment. You can go as hard as you want to or just flo-roll and work on fundamentals. I do not regret my decision to join. I hope to see you at the morning class!"

"Legacy BJJ is an outstanding place to train! Every visit is a positive experience, thanks to the incredible atmosphere and high-quality instruction. The instructors are not only highly skilled in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, but many also bring expertise from other martial arts, offering a deep and well-rounded understanding of technique and strategy. The owners have cultivated a welcoming, inclusive environment where everyone—regardless of experience or goals—feels at home. The students are supportive, focused on helping each other improve, and the sense of camaraderie is truly special. Whether you're training for competition, fitness, or personal growth, Legacy BJJ is a fantastic community to be a part of."

"Legacy BJJ is everything you need in a jiu jitsu gym. There is a very welcoming environment for everyone. Top notch instruction for beginners all the way up to those with championships and years of experience. The owners, Matt and Ed, care about EVERY student and are always available for questions. 5/5 recommend Legacy BJJ."
Andrew Stewart
"Amazing place to train for both adults and kids! My kids and myself have loved learning with Ed, Matt, and the team at Legacy BJJ. So many youth sports today are surrounded by over competitive tones and negativity, everything at Legacy is positive and builds these kids up. I ask my kids every night we are free if they want to attend BJJ and they always want to go. I see their skills and confidence building every time we are there. This has been a great place for myself also. Being an adult and stepping out to learn a new sport/skill can be intimidating. From day one I never felt that way at this gym. The environment and welcoming nature of this place is awesome. Thanks for all you do! We can't wait to continue to improve with everyone at Legacy BJJ."
