james mann
"We (my son and I) have been students at this gym for 6 months and it has been awesome. Not only is the content great for real self defense, but the people are so welcoming and we have made many; what I can only imagine will be, long term friendships. It is fun, rewarding, and challenging. I encourage anyone who wants real world experience in how JiuJitsu can work in their life to give it a look here. It’s been life changing."
Clinton Isenhower
"My family and I joined Ooltewah Jiu Jitsu in late summer of 2023. Since then, we have learned valuable self defense skills while also enjoying the benefit of vastly improved strength and dexterity. The instructors are knowledgable, objective folks and all of our peers - regardless of rank - are kind and helpful people. If you’re looking to improve your ability of defending yourself while simultaneously improving your health, and make a few friends along the way, you’ll be able to accomplish all of these goals at Ooltewah Jiu Jitsu."
