What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Daniel Nesheiwat
"Our 5yr old loves his Jiu-Jitsu classes! The staff and coaches are incredibly skilled."
Thomas Lyles
"I have been training at RGN for a little over two years now and have nothing but great things to say about my experience. The coaches are all fantastic and super detailed in their instruction. While some gyms will just throw new students to the wolves, there is a focus on learning in a competitive but safe environment. I've visited a few other gyms since I started training and none of them come close to the level of comradery and instruction here."
Andrew Walker
"(Drop in) Best BJJ in Nashville hands down. Shawn has built an academy that has the highest level instruction, friendliest knowledge sharing community, and one of the cleanest gyms around. On top of that if you know anything about BJJ Shawn has been at ground zero for the evolution and revolution of BJJ in the US since the beginning and it shows from the moment you walk in the front door."
Antony Marcantoni
"Shawn, thanks again for the high level training and hospitality. You have an amazing crew of polite and talented men and women. I look forward to visiting again."
