What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Anup Yogi Desai
"Ive been training here since they opened. I love it here. The instructors are great and there are some tough men and women on the mats. Good for everyone from hobbyists to people that want self defense applications to people that want to compete. Also everyone is friendly and supportive! Truly a community."

"I highly recommend Richmond County BJJ! John and Zully are incredible instructors. They totally have their students' backs, and they make learning jiu-jitsu super fun, even for the little ones. Guy and Israel are also fantastic instructors and role models. It's not just about learning fancy moves (although they learn those too!) and competing, it's about building confidence, discipline, and having a blast. The whole place has a super chill vibe, and everyone feels welcome. My son has made some great friends here, and I love seeing him excited to go to class."
Dmitry Binkevich
"Simply amazing. My girls (10 and 13) have been going since Dec. The classes are small to reasonably sized, the instructors are excellent, and the instructor to student ratio is quite small, so everyone gets individualized attention. The instructors instill a sense of discipline in the kids that is admirable - this is definitely not an ‘everyone gets a medal’ place. To top it all off, my 13 year old wants to go there herself as often as possible - for those of you with teenagers, think about the last time your teenager wanted to do anything, never mind have an intense hour long workout. So happy we found it!"
Christine
"I can't say enough good things about this place! I recently signed my child up for the kids class. From day 1, John and Zully were wonderful. So welcoming and quickly put my little one at ease. They are able to combine instruction, discipline and fun, which makes my child want to keep going back. The facility is big with so much mat space! And it's super clean which as a Mom is very important! I don't want my kid rolling around on a dirty surface. So kudos to them for that! With such a positive introduction into the world of Jiu Jitsu, it looks like we're going to be customers for a very long time!"
