Rafal Bulgarski

"Wow, what an awesome place with some of the highest level of BJJ in Sarasota and surrounding areas. Professor Jeremy Harris is not only one of the nicest guys you will meet but also phenomenal instructor. His team is just as exceptional. I dropped in for a class, visiting the area with my family and was not only greeted with open arms but invited to train through out my vacation. Amazing atmosphere and awesome group to call friends. This is what BJJ is all about. If you ever thought about starting the journey don’t wait a second longer this place is the right place to start your addiction. 😜 Thank You Professor Jeremy, I’ll definitely be back."

"As a parent finding the right martial arts program for my child was important to me and I am thrilled to say Six Blades BJJ exceeded all my expectations. The instructors at Six Blades BJJ are fantastic with kids, create a supportive and encouraging atmosphere where every child feels valued and empowered. They not only teach BJJ but they also emphasize value, respect, teamwork, and discipline. If you're looking for a martial arts program that will not only teacher child Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu but also help them grow into a confident and respectful individual Six Blades is the place to be! They also have adult classes that my husband loved! The adult classes were nicely structured for all levels (from beginner to advanced). The instructors provide clear and concise explanations, breaking down complex techniques into manage steps for the beginners! From the moment you step on the mat you will receive excellent instruction."

Knocko Nolan

"I had the pleasure of doing a drop-in class while visiting from out of town. I called the contact number listed on the website prior to doing so, and was welcomed and encouraged by the owner of said establishment. Once at the faculty, I was warmly greeted by the instructor and all the students which made me feel at home automatically. They run a friendly, clean and efficient shop which I would highly recommend to anyone who’s interested. Keep up the great work y’all!"
