"Scott is a phenomenal instructor and is great with kids. I will never forget my first day of class. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. They really do become your second family."

Everyone is super talented and helpful and Scott will teach you everything you need to know about the art of jiu-jitsu"
Dustin Jones
"I knew I was going to be in Charleston for the night for work so I called and asked if I could drop in and they told me of course stop on by. Very nice facility, very clean and very welcoming. I travel to Charleston several times a year and from now on this is where I will be training when I am in town."
Bryan Davis
"Went here while working in town. The instruction was very detailed. Everyone was super helpful and respectful. I will try to make it out there anytime I'm in Charleston. Thank you"
