"Black Belts Andrew Kochel and Jason Palmer are the best instructors out there! It is one of the only gyms I’ve been to that are incredibly friendly and treat you like family. Valley is a great place to train for all levels. Highly recommend for any people currently training or beginners."
Rebekah Parry
"We have been so pleased with classes at Valley Jiu Jitsu. My daughter has HATED every sport we have tried and this is the only place she looks forward to every week. They work so well with all levels and ages. I highly recommend for any adult or child in the Lehigh Valley!"
Kamil Krukowski
"Went in unsure of what to think at first, to the wrong location listed by googled as Broad Street (as opposed to the new location at Penn Drive). The instructors are amazing and accepting of all skill levels. They know their stuff and the overall atmosphere is very supportive. It’s incredibly common for new people to show up and try some trial classes with no experience, and they’re integrated into the lesson. The space itself is somewhat small at a first glance ~ but works wonderfully and always seems to somehow accommodate everyone in a tight knit family like atmosphere. Overall I highly recommend Valley Jiu Jitsu for any and everyone, with plenty of options offered from nogi classes to fundamentals, wrestling, and children’s classes."
Eric Gaumer
"Very hospitable environment. Instructors promote a safe and friendly learning environment for students at any skill level. If you're interested in competition, there's a team that competes in the grappling tournament scene. They offer kids classes as well and my eight year old daughter loves it. Whether for hobby or sport, it's a great place and a great group of folks."
