What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Krista Lopez
"I’ve trained at several gyms the past few years and I finally found my home. Before I even switched to North South, Monique welcomed me with open arms every time I needed a place to cross train. Her and Rodrigo are truly invested in their students and are amazing competitors themselves. They have great work ethic and technique that they pass on to their students. They have created an environment where students show up for one another in training and at competitions. North South is truly a team who works as one. Bonuses are their facility is beautiful and kept clean, plus their business partners are great people (Danyelle is the gym mom and is simply amazing)."
Stephanie Duffie
"I cannot recommend this gym enough! My family and I, including myself (39), my son (13), and my daughter (6), have been training here for a while, and it’s been an incredible experience for all of us. They are not only highly skilled but also patient and dedicated to making each class enjoyable and educational, no matter the age or skill level. My daughter, who is just 6, has really thrived here thanks to their thoughtful teaching style. This gym has truly become a second home for our family, and we are grateful for the positive influence it has had on all of us. Whether you're a beginner or looking to take your Jiu Jitsu to the next level, this place is perfect for everyone. Highly recommend!"
Julie Norine
"We love North South Jiu Jitsu! It’s a family friendly environment, but they take their craft seriously. Professor Rodrigo is great with kids and my son is having a blast learning BJJ from him. The entire staff, and all the families there are so friendly and made us feel welcome from the very start. We are happy to be a part of the North South family!"
Tanya Linsley
"Great Gym! They make it easy for a new person to feel they belong regardless if you show up to a class surrounded by those the same rank as you or if you are surrounded by those with higher ranking. The instruction is built on foundations, easy to follow and piece together. The admin and all of the professors are awesome!"
