What Our Students Say

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

Dani Allour

"My son loved it after his first class! He can’t wait to go each week, and I can’t wait to see how he progresses. A very fun and welcoming environment for kids and parents. The coaches in the kids classes are all so amazing with the kiddos too. So glad we found this gym."

Laura Cipolla

"We are beyond grateful for Lionheart. Our daughter has found such a love for jiu jitsu and looks forward to each and every class. The coaches are beyond amazing and caring. They not only take the time to create relationships with students during class, but also go above and beyond to ask kiddos about school, family, and all the other things their students are passionate about. Lionheart provides students with a safe atmosphere to build their confidence and self defense skills. We feel like we are apart of a family each time we walk through the door!"

Anthony Fails

"As a beginner to Jiu Jitsu with no martial arts experience; all of the instructors have done an excellent job in teaching me & building my skills from the ground up, the right way. I know people who attend the more advanced classes that share my opinion for that as well. All of the students who attend the classes are helpful, friendly, & respectful. I would absolutely recommend Lionheart Jiu Jitsu to anyone considering beginning their martial arts journey or anyone more experienced wanting to sharpen their skills."

Jamie Birzer

"We have been attending for a couple months and even now, this review is overdue. I have put my son in every single sport to get him motivated and nothing had worked. He literally sits on the court or the field and just falls asleep or gets bored. In a last stitch effort, I saw an ad for Lionheart and signed up. I was contacted by the owner who went over the logistics before class and even though I knew our son wouldn't like it, it's a free trial, right? When I tell you, he's hooked, I'm not kidding! He looks forward to the classes four times a week and he takes them very seriously. The coaches saw him sitting down a couple times and told him to get up right away; being called out on his laziness from someone besides his parents was very motivating. He respects the coaches and his teammates like I've never seen before! All the kids coaches are great but Coach Lexi is just sooooo good with the kids. Her words of affirmation and her excitement when kids do their very best is so motivating for them! Furthermore, our 10 year old daughter has joined and has found her confidence and is a beast on the mats. I couldn't recommend this place more! Thank you all!"
