Caroline Johnson
"Great bjj gym for all levels. The vibes are extremely friendly and welcoming, plus Coach Rodrigo ensures everyone feels safe and comfortable on the mats, something you don’t see in all gyms in the area. The coaches all clearly love what they do and strive to make the students enjoy the sport just as much. Highly recommend!"
Nicholas Nuzzo
"Great place to get into jujitsu! The kids program teaches discipline as well as it does the techniques. The adults class is full of helpful, funny, and hungry individuals who understand how to be great sparring partners. Class sizes usually fluctuate from around 20 to 5 people with the larger classes happening during the week and the smaller ones typically on Saturday. Rodrigo is a fantastic instructor, he’s been able to answer every question I’ve had so far and he’s able to work with each person towards attaining their individual goals. You can tell he’s invested in his studentsts growth."

"Amazing environment for newcomers! I’ve never done any form of martial arts so im totally new to this and everyone is so welcoming and nonjudgmental! The instructor takes his time making sure I understand everything and allows me to go at my own pace! I look forward to going to all my classes highly recommend! Especially if you’re a female who’s interested in self defense and has never done anything like it before! Perfect environment for beginners!!"
Annelise Silva
"Way of Life BJJ and Instructor Rodrigo has been a big part of our lives for the past 3 years. Rodrigo started training our son Jacob at 4 years old and his patience, respect, and love for the art of BJJ was evident from the very 1st class. He does an amazing job with the kids class!"
