What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Samuel Wilson
"I have been going to TKO for two years now and it is the best BJJ gym in all of northeast Ohio. Chris and Annette are the sweetest people and are incredibly inviting to newcomers. On top of that, they run the best kids program in the area, hands down. Whether you are training to compete, training for self-defense, or simply a hobbyist trying to stay in shape, TKO checks all of the boxes. Chris’ extensive wrestling and BJJ background make him one of the most versatile and credible coaches in the area. There is not a more inviting gym with a better atmosphere. TKO 4 Lyfe"
Adam Booth
"Awesome place to train! Morning or evening classes available to fit your schedule. Plenty of depth so you get a daily dose of humble pie. Professor Kriebel is a talented teacher and fierce competitor. The other coaches are really good too."
Ryan Drake
"Not a bad thing to say. Great instructors that each bring their own pearls of wisdom. Professor Kriebel is a class act. Amazing hands on instruction. Such dedication to the kids program. The ratios of instructors to kids is perfect. They are passionate about what they do. In a short time at the gym we are seeing gains and having fun. Check it out you won’t be disappointed."
Tyler Reed
"TKO is an incredibly welcoming environment. Chris is an amazing instructor. I am brand new to BJJ and martial arts as a whole so I was very impressed with the time the instructor and fellow participants have given me to learn this new craft. I recommend this place to anyone interested in learning BJJ."
