What Our Students Say

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

Brian Scopa

"We have been part of the Lobo Team Jiu Jitsu family for several years, and I can't express enough how wonderful the experience has been for our family. All of my children train here, and they have grown immensely strong, disciplined, and proficient in Jiu Jitsu under the care of the exceptional and experienced Professor Fred. The atmosphere at the studio is truly one of a kind. It feels like a second home where everyone supports and encourages each other. We're there five days a week, and the sense of community and family is palpable, making it a perfect environment for both children and adults to thrive. Professor Fred's dedication to each student's growth is remarkable. They not only teach BJJ techniques but also instill important values like respect, perseverance, and self-discipline. It's evident that he genuinely cares about the well-being and development of each student. Seeing the positive impact it had on my children, I decided to start training Jiu Jitsu there myself. It has been an incredible journey, and I have witnessed firsthand the benefits of training in this nurturing and supportive environment. If you're looking for a place where your family can grow stronger together, both physically and mentally, Lobo Team Jiu Jitsu is the perfect choice. We couldn't be happier with our experience here and look forward to many more years of training and growth."

Daniel Stelter

"We are very happy with Fred and all the instructors at Lobo Jui Jitsu. Our son had his 1st competition and the coaches were extremely supportive. They always put thier students first."

Николай Баранов

"I am leaving my review 18 months after my son and I joined the Lobo team. During this time, I saw how much stronger and more confident my son became. Having never practiced jiu-jitsu before, my son now competes. Thank you, Professor Fred, who opened the world of jiu-jitsu to me and my son. Regarding the club, it is worth noting its convenient location and convenient schedule. The club is open almost every day. If I don’t have time to come to training during the day, then I can do it either in the morning or in the evening."

Chris pfeiffer

"My son has been attending Lobo Jiu Jitsu for 1.5 years, and I cannot speak highly enough of the incredible experience he’s had here. From the very beginning, the environment at Lobo Jiu Jitsu has been welcoming, supportive, and truly inspiring. Professors Fred and Brucca are exceptional instructors who not only possess an immense wealth of knowledge and skill in Jiu Jitsu but also have a remarkable ability to connect with their students. They create a learning environment that is both challenging and nurturing, pushing Hunter to grow and improve while also making sure he feels valued and supported every step of the way. Under their guidance, my son’s confidence, discipline, and physical fitness have all grown significantly. He looks forward to each class, eager to learn new techniques and refine his skills. The sense of camaraderie and community at Lobo Jiu Jitsu is something truly special, and I’m grateful for the positive impact it has had on my son. If you’re looking for a Jiu Jitsu academy that combines top-notch instruction with a strong sense of community and personal growth, I highly recommend Lobo Jiu Jitsu. Professors Fred and Brucca are outstanding, and I’m confident that Hunter will continue to thrive here for years to come."
