Alisha Winegarden
"I recently had the pleasure of visiting a fantastic gym that truly stands out for its welcoming atmosphere and skilled instructors. From the moment I stepped inside, I was impressed by how clean and safe the environment felt, both on and off the mats. The well-lit parking lot provided high visibility, making it easy to access the gym without any concerns. During an open mat session, I was pleasantly surprised by several perks that made the experience even more enjoyable. The professor’s wife baked delicious cookies, which added a nice touch of hospitality to the day. The professor himself took the time to demonstrate some essential half guard movements, which turned out to be fundamental techniques that I found incredibly helpful. He was also very encouraging, urging us to roll with everyone present, fostering a supportive and inclusive training atmosphere. One of the highlights of the day was the arrival of a fairly large women’s group. It’s often challenging to find women to train with, so having such a strong presence was a wonderful bonus. Overall, this gym provides an excellent training experience, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced practitioner, you’ll find a welcoming community ready to help you grow."

"Our experience at Roanoke Jiu-Jitsu has been nothing short of exceptional! Coach Zac is an outstanding instructor. His teaching style not only imparts valuable self-defense skills but also fosters a love for learning. The facilities are impeccably clean, and the welcoming atmosphere makes us feel like part of the Jiu-Jitsu family. Thanks to Coach Zac’s guidance, my daughter has achieved remarkable success in tournaments, earning gold medals. We can’t express enough gratitude for the positive impact Roanoke Jiu-Jitsu has had on her journey. If you’re looking for a place where skill development meets a supportive community, this is it. Highly recommended! 👏🥋"
