What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Keely Angel
"I took a women’s self defense seminar at Lucky Cat and learned a ton. Jenn, Dan and Steve are wonderful teachers. They made the self defense techniques accessible and helped everyone feel comfortable and confident in executing them. The space is really nice too, super clean, cool aesthetic and great vibes. Will definitely be back!"
Valentina Samardin
"An exceptional space to practice Jiu-Jitsu, striking the perfect balance between a family-friendly atmosphere and top-tier professionalism. Instructors and owners Steve, Dan, and Jenn are not only highly skilled but also incredibly patient and dedicated to helping every student succeed — whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned practitioner. The training environment is welcoming, supportive, and designed to foster growth. I can’t recommend this academy highly enough."
