"My 13 yr old daughter started Westside BJJ about 2 months ago from a previous gym to be able to train & roll with more girls & kids her age & size. All of the coaches have been so welcoming & helpful to her. Coach Betina has been very committed to helping her reach her goals in competition. She attends the kids & adult classes and comes out of each class with a great workout and something new learned. We highly recommend & are excited to see how her Jiu-Jitsu journey continues."
