What Our Students Say

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

Tiffany Kitsen

"I joined Paramount hoping to mix up my workout routine and learn a little self defense. I had no prior martial arts experience. Luckily, Paramount has a very organized beginners program designed to introduce novices to the fundamentals of the sport and self defense. As students gain skill, more advanced class options become available and new skills are introduced, which keeps this sport incredibly interesting. No one day or workout is the same at Paramount. While this school is fantastic for beginners, it is also home base for multiple black belts, a large group of serious competitors, and plenty of hard working hobbyist. It is very family friendly. There is a spot for everyone here....men, women, teens, and kids! Last but not least, the culture here is truly something special. In my 4+ years at Paramount, each instructor I've come in contact with has been invested in helping me learn and grow. It's not uncommon to see instructors and students staying late after class to help each other and keep learning. From coaches to students, the love of the sport is real and very contagious."

Ryan O'Connor

"Amazing staff and facility, surrounded by awesome and humble instructors and fellow BJJ peers. 110% recommend Paramount to anyone who is considering getting into Jiu-Jitsu. Hope to see you there. πŸ€™πŸ½"

Daniel Smith

"I just started taking the Basics BJJ classes at Paramount, and I have to say, I was super nervous at first since I don't have any experience. But let me tell you, Brad and all his instructors have been amazing! They've been so informative and welcoming, and they made me feel right at home at the gym. Paramount has such a great vibe and it will make anyone feel welcome. I can't recommend Paramount enough for anyone new looking to start BJJ!"

Steve Clifton

"I can't say enough positive things about Paramount Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The coaches, staff and fellow students are all top grade. I walked into the gym 1 year ago knowing nothing about Jiu Jitsu, I was just looking for a change in my routine. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted by not only the friendly staff, but the friendly coaches and students too. Coach Brad has created an environment that makes you feel like you're at home and everyone there is your family. There's classes and opportunities for all ages and skill levels. My only regret is not joining this gym sooner. I recommend Paramount to anyone, from the novice like myself to the experienced competitor."
