South Mountain Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Self Defense

"I have been with SMJJ since the first day they opened their doors. Coach Sarah and Nigel have grown to be more than just coaches. They have become mentors in my learning of BJJ, leaders in our community, and most importantly, family. The school embodies a safe space for folks of all skill level in Jiu Jitsu to come and train and hone in on your skills. Whether it’s you want to train Jiu Jitsu as a hobbyist or a competitor, SMJJ offers it all!"

"As a proud dad watching my entire family train at South Mountain Movement & Wellness, I can't say enough good things about this place. The instructors are phenomenal with both kids and adults, striking that perfect balance between pushing everyone to improve and keeping it fun. My kids have absolutely blossomed here - their confidence has skyrocketed, and it's amazing to see them learning real self-defense skills while having a blast with their training partners. Even my daughter, who used to be so shy about wrestling, now eagerly demonstrates moves at home (usually attempting to armbar me throughout the day). What really sets this place apart is how they've created such a strong family atmosphere. My wife and I get to train in the adult classes, and we really enjoy the community here. Lots of the adults have children who also train in the community, and its wonderful seeing the entire family on the mats! The other parents and students have become great friends, and we often send each other jujitsu memes on Instagram. The facility is always clean, the schedule is flexible enough to accommodate our crazy family logistics, and they genuinely care about every student's progress. I honestly don't know how Coach Sarah and Coach Danny remember all the kids names. Sarah and Nigel have created something really special here, and signing up was one of the best decisions we've made for our family, both for our physical fitness and our sense of community. I hope as the community grows we can add more no-gi classes and continue fostering our wonderful culture. 5/5"

"Wonderful place to learn jujitsu. My children are thriving. I see the adult classes and it looks like they have very skilled coaches. Students are of all levels."
