"Voyage is a great facility! Coach Bill and the rest of the team do a fantastic job teaching the kids’ classes. My daughter’s self confidence has blossomed as her skills have improved. Cannot recommend enough!"
Paul Shankin
"I walked into Voyage Jiu-Jitsu with zero experience.. just a genuine interest in learning. From day one, the atmosphere was both welcoming and professional. What really stands out is the culture: this place is built on humility, respect, & hard work. In just a short time, I’ve seen massive growth in my skillset, & I owe that entirely to the structure & support of this team. The coaches are incredibly skilled, down-to-earth, & fully committed to your progress. If you’re looking for a place to start your BJJ journey, this is it."

"Voyage is everything you want in a Jiu-Jitsu gym—tough training, zero ego, and an unbeatable culture. From day one, I felt welcomed and pushed to grow. The culture is all about mutual respect, hard work, and getting better together. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned grappler, everyone’s got your back. Huge shout-out to Coach Bill Konkel whose leadership sets the tone. He’s technical, passionate, and genuinely cares about everyone on the mats. And the rest of the coaching staff is just as incredible. They’re knowledgeable, approachable, and always there to help you improve. This isn’t just a gym, it’s a community. If you’re serious about leveling up, start your journey at Voyage."
Joe Chatman
