What Our Students Say

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

ALLOGENiE THE GOD

"One of the best schools on the east coast. Between Alex’s BJJ & Rays Judo, combining the two will leave you unmatched against any opponent. Chris & George bring in a unique variety of wrestling from Roman Greco to freestyle which significantly improves my BJJ/Judo as well. Not only are the classes extremely informative but you will learn that BJJ/Judo is not just a martial art but a way of life. Making men & women better in all aspects. A true blessing for those that stumble upon it. If you’re in the area, you will be overly happy with what you will learn here and you will make life long friends who only want to see you be the best version of yourself."

Joseph Wagner Jr.

"I trained with Alex for nearly a decade through various iterations of being a group of guys who were knowledge sharing, to being a fight club, to merging with a BJJ school and having a full roster of MMA, BJJ, Judo and kickboxing. The man really knows a lot and is a fantastic teacher. He's been a great friend, corner man and coach as well. You absolutely can't go wrong if you're learning from Alex. I've know Ray for a shorter period of time, but in that time I've come to greatly respect his Judo knowledge and ability. He's also a wonderful teacher and will help you take your game to the next level. I can't possibly overstate how competent and friendly both Ray and Alex are. If you're even remotely close to Myrtle Beach I can't imagine why you would want to train anywhere else."

rob mccarthy

"These guys are great. The combined experience of the instructors here is astounding. They have competed in both national as well as international tournaments, and are willing to share that knowledge with their students. It is a very hands on and easy to learn concept. My son loves it here, and has trained with other great trainers. I recommend them to everyone who has a true desir"

Scott H

"I am fortunate to have received outstanding training from Alex and Ray. I have been in Law Enforcement for twenty years and Alex has given me the best defensive tactics training anyone could ask for. I can honestly say that you will not be disappointed with these two instructors. The knowledge that they have and are willing to share will save your life and will absolutely improve you BJJ and Judo. Sign up and give it a try!"
