Annie Espinosa
"We love this studio!!! We searched multiple studios before deciding that this was the place for our son, Cody. We have been here for one year now and we love the attention that each student receives from their coaches. All the coaches are amazing and they are so great with the kids. You have to come and see for yourselves. You and your kids will love them!"

"Dropped in for open mat while traveling through. Professor Evan and the team were a fantastic group. Everyone was super welcoming, and I got to chat with a few folks, which I really appreciated. The rolls were respectful, and I enjoyed the focused training vibe throughout the room. Everyone I rolled with kept it challenging but controlled. Got invited to come back, and I definitely will on my next trip through."
Lisa Carr
"Such a great place to train! All of the coaches and staff are friendly, patient and welcoming. There is a very positive and supportive atmosphere at this school to help you achieve your goals of why you started jiu jitsu. The passion Professor Troy has for jiu jitsu really shows!"
C & R Gaming
"The best place to train your kids in bjj and also respect. The instructors are very good and respectful. Been around this gym for over 10 years and it to me the best place to train or to train your kids for self defense. I had my two older sons train here 7 years ago and now I’m back here again with my 7 year. Glad that I’m back!!💯💯💯"
