"Ok so I was reserved in trying jui-jitsu out for the kids becasue I have a really, really, really shy kid that only knows his momma and a daughter that didnt know if she wanted to try it since she knew nothing about it. We went and they offered them to try it out for free for the day or pay a month to see. We tried for a day and my son wanted nothing to do with it becasue of his shyness, however my daughters face lit up for the first time in her life and she found a new love. Then I decided to pay for the month to help him adjust, to try and try again. Second time he wanted to do it because all the others were having so much fun but was too afraid, by day three he knew he loved it and didnt want to leave. The instructors here helped him get over his fears and so many came to the rescue to help him build confidence. Now both kids practice at home on each other or on me. I can tell they have learned so much in such a short time. I now regret we didnt try this sooner as others recommend this place to us over the years. I'm now recommending this place to all parents now. My daughter wants to compete now and focus all her energy on this new love for jui-jitsu. I have never seen my children smile so much. It has built both of their confidence too and has made them stronger. They faced their fears to the unknown and my daughters favorite thing is she is learning how to defend herself. If I could give them 10 stars I would. All the people here are splendid and really love what they do. Everyone is welcomed and no one is left out. Parents are kept involved. The place is clean and well taken care of. Thank you for all yall do."
