“Great environment for learning and development. Ray gives great pointers and fosters a culture with good training partners. I dropped in for a BJJ class only (which you should probably email about ahead of time). The gym is really easy to reach via transit.”

“Training here is therapeutic for me. I originally came here as a way to stay in shape but love how much Iu2019m learning and how my body composition has changed. I was intimidated at first because I am 42 years old and had no previous experience with jiu jitsu but everyone has been so kind and helpful teaching me various techniques. I canu2019t say enough about the amazing culture here, highly recommend!”

I have attended these classes twice a week for about 3 months now and not only am I in better shape but my confidence has skyrocketed!! Highly, hig”
