Kelly Swentik
"I love this gym, if you're new or experienced to combat sports Olympus is the perfect gym. professor Tom and his staff do an amazing job and breaking down techniques and giving immediate feedback on how you're doing. This gym is more than just a gym its small cultural make it more of a family than just a place to train. Oss!"
Ayaan Siddiqui
"I’ve been training here for almost 3 years and hands down this is the best and most friendly BJJ gym I’ve trained at. Everyone is super welcoming and nice. The coaches here are absolute beasts when it comes to grappling as well, from wrestling, judo, upper body subs and even modern leg locks the coaches here know what they’re doing and are good at articulating and teaching these concepts."
James Sugrue
"Tom, Vaughn, and Phil have been such great coaches. These guys are patient, engaged, and fun all while maintaining a commitment to excellence and discipline. Olympus Grappling Arts has made such a difference for our 6 year old daughter Koltyn (Koko) it has been completely transformative in just 3 months. We have never seen her be so interested or committed to something as she has been to BJJ making sure we are going to take her 3 times per week. Since starting with Tom’s program we can see a braver, more confident, and assertive Koltyn. She has always been kind and extremely social but has struggled with confidence when it comes to standing up for herself and others. In the past month she has both stood up for herself and her friends and we think that’s just awesome. You guys are great and are doing wonderful work with these kids that extends far beyond Jiu Jitsu and that deserves acknowledgment and a huge thank you! We are so glad to have signed her up and look forward to seeing what is possible for her in the future! Anyone looking for a Jiu jitsu school for their kid this is the place!"
Christopher Castaneda
"The coaches we have, are great instructors. Between the coaches and the students, we have built a great culture in the academy and I look forward to every training session. Friendly, chill, laid back people are welcoming and helpful to new students. If you are thinking about trying Brazilian jiu jitsu, and are worried about meat heads smashing you to the mats. Worry not, Olympus has a very welcoming atmosphere to inexperienced grapplers. If you are experienced, there are a lot of skilled players to learn from too. Inquire about a free trial class!"
