"Great place to go! My son started off with no experience and they did a great job teaching him! He loves to go and learn new things and meet new people. It is a great environment to be around and everyone is super friendly and caring 100% recommend to come try it out!"
Talia Rice
"Been going to FVGC for years. It’s a great place with even better people. My teammates are awesome and we have two fantastic black belts who put a lot of time into their coaching and students. If you’re looking for a BJJ gym look no further! The skills and technique they have is the best in the fox Valley"
Seth Rottier
"Best BJJ gym around! Our black belts, Dan Williams and Kegan Gennrich, are the most experienced and highest level instructors in the area; and we are affiliated with Wisconsin360. This means we have 6 other schools in the state we can drop in at for free. The facility they operate is the biggest in the city and is attended by practitioners of all skill levels. I’m grateful to be a member!"
Christopher Olson
"FVGC runs a fantastic BJJ program, especially for kids. My daughter has become so much more confident and assertive, and she takes so much pride in getting her stripes. The instructors are fun and make it safe space for the kids to learn self defense."
