What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Austin Madnick
"During a trip to Maine, I attended a few sessions at this gym. I have visited 5-6 gyms previously which helps put things in perspective. I really enjoyed the atmosphere. The gym was clean, the people were friendly, and the classes were well taught and fun. I spoke and met with three of the coaches. They were excellent. I highly recommend this gym, and I am glad to find BJJ being taught in rural Maine."
Robert Wales
"Great academy, welcoming people. I was in the Farmington area, visiting family, and dropped in to the Foundry for my son to take the kids class and for me to take an adult class. The instructors were great and the other students were friendly with a good range of skill and sizes. I definitely recommend The Foundry for people in the Farmington area looking to improve their BJJ game."
Joe Proulx
"What a great BJJ club! Seth and all the members were extremely friendly. I was in the area and stopped in for a workout. The club is extremely clean and accommodating. The rolls had great energy without going overboard. Will definitely visit again when I’m in the area."
Gabriel Midkiff
"I have been a member for several years. My whole family joined having no experience. The children's class is great. My son and daughter both love it and the teacher of the kids class is very good with the kids, he is patient, but firm when needed. My wife was very nervous about joining but quickly settled in as there are several women who have made her feel very welcome in class. And they are offering a women's only class! I love class as well. There are lots of guys who are very proactive about including me in training and rolling. The foundry has different teachers on different nights who each have their own style. When i have missed class and see other class members around town, they always ask if things are ok, tell me they missed me in class, and encourage me to make sure i get back to class. The camaraderie and discipline make it totally worth going."
