What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Justin Fitzpatrick
"I brought my son here several months ago and have been truly impressed by the facility and the Coach Bruno and the other instructors. The mats and gym are very clean and the coaches have been fantastic. My son quickly gained more physical conditioning and confidence, as well as greatly enjoying every class. I also like being able to let him train both gi and no-gi classes in the same membership, as well as the month-by-month billing schedule. Classes are flexible too, so we can pick which days we go. Highly recommend you try a lesson if you are curious!"
Christopher Tyree
"Westside BJJ is an awesome place to train with a super friendly vibe. The coaches really know their stuff and make learning fun and easy to follow. Our son loves the youth classes and has even competed. The confidence he developed at Westside was a big factor in making him feel comfortable competing. Whether you’re new or experienced, you’ll feel right at home here."
Dustin Powell
"If you’re in the Little Rock area, and you don’t stop by Westside BJJ you’re do yourself a disservice. Bruno welcomed me the second I walked through the door, and every student introduced themselves making me feel right at home. The instruction was clear and thorough. The rounds were excellent, challenging without being overwhelming. Everyone did an amazing job at matching pace with a visitor on vacation. Stop by, and bring a friend."
Oleksiy Gudz
"Great club with top coaches and fantastic atmosphere. My son loves time he spends here, makes him more confident and atletic. Good place to make friends and socialize. Coaches are amazing and supportive. Coach Bruno always helps and focuses on individual growth. Would highly recommend !!!"
