"Soneca and all the coaches here are great. I started here 5 years ago and haven't looked back since. Everyone at the gym treats you like family, I started my 9 year old son 3 years ago and just recently started my 4 year old. They have an absolute blast. The coaches do a great job keeping the kids engaged during lessons while keeping it fun for them."
Rebecca Casey
"My family cannot say enough wonderful things about Soneca BJJ. My daughters and husband train in both the Marlborough and Worcester locations. Both gyms have the most caring coaches who build bonds with their students. This was a game changing decision for us - making all of our lives better. If I could more than 5 stars I would. What a blessing to be a part of this BJJ family."
