Six Blades Jiu Jitsu NOVA

"Me and a few co-workers I train with dropped in the 6 am class while on a work trip. It was a great experience and we meshed very well with the instructor and other students. We were welcomed and had a great class of both instruction and rolling time. I will definitely stop by again when I am back in the DC area. I also appreciated the quick communication online when I had questions about the school. I would be happy to train here full time if I lived in the local area."

"Six Blades NOVA is THE BEST! My son trains with the amazing coaching staff 3 times a week and he loves it. Highly recommend!"

"Recommend by family friends 5 years ago, and it's become our home away from home. Emil and Pete are passionate about continually leading the legacy of Ribeiro JJ on the mats with discipline and heart. It started off with just loving the kids program to now the whole family rolls together. We will continue our journey until duty service calls us elsewhere. We are grateful for all the lessons we learn on the tatami as it rolls into daily discipline as well. Thank you Emil and Pete -OSS"

"UPDATE: I believe everything in their response about this professor is true, and further proves my point, that someone in his position should be able to control their temper/outbursts; the fact that he doesn't is concerning. There is a teacher here to steer clear of. If you’re in a contract, just keep your distance as much as possible from Pete. If your kid is in the program, make sure you stay engaged while they train and don’t scroll your phone or go for a walk or anything. If you’re not in a contract yet, just go look elsewhere; there are plenty of great schools in this area. It sucks because Emil and the other experienced people here are cool and a wealth of knowledge. But, there’s no way to tell who’s going to be there, and Pete is a loose cannon; a black belt in skill and technique only in my opinion, no anger management or respect. You can find evidence of this on other popular review sites going back as far as 2018, and by talking to pretty much anyone else who has trained there and left."
