Frequency Martial Arts is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu academy that I highly recommend to anyone interested in learning a martial art. Even though I live almost an hour away and there are other gyms closer to where I live that offer BJJ, I choose to go to FMA for the following reasons: (1) the people - everyone is friendly and supportive...there are no jerks or over-inflated egos; (2) the instructors - all are knowledgeable, remarkably patient, and genuinely interested in making sure that you are learning and making progress; (3) the class schedule - classes are offered Monday through Saturday, and there's usually open mat on Sunday, so there's always a class available for you to attend; and (4) the affiliation - FMA is an affiliate of Robson Moura, 8X world champion...having access to his knowledge and experience is invaluable.

I've been training her about 10 months. And I can say it is an upstanding facility. It's clean, the new location is just amazing, there's a shower now which is incredible and the staff are so nice. Ed Lemonier and Mike Donnovan teach the children's classes and they have an obvious patience for the kids that I envy. Ed, Mike Lavazza, Doug Kimball, and Coach Ben are all exceptional teachers. They are kind, patient and always willing to to take time out and help you during and after class. One thing I respect is that they always make sure everyone is safe and that no one is going to get injured. They also make sure all the students are respectful and never let them get too aggressive on the mats. I started my BJJ journey as a way to express my obvious aggression. Now it's become something more for me because of FMA. I have serious goals and ambitions I working towards and I wouldn't be able to reach them with out FMA and all their staff and students

The knowledgeable coaching, diverse and talented student population, and overall positive atmosphere at Frequency makes training here feel like a privilege. It is evident everyone genuinely cares about helping one another grow in their BJJ journeys' and it starts from the top coaches. I would highly recommend training here if you are interested in Jiu-jitsu. You won't regret it!

Frequency Martial Arts is a great place to learn jiu jitsu. It's clean, affordable, and has great coaches. My daughter has trained here over a year now and has learned so much not only about jiu jitsu but respect and accountability for herself and others. The kids classes not only focus on jiu jitsu, but they talk to them about bullies, helping others, good manners, being respectful, personal responsibility, ect. All the coaches are great with the kids and are patient and willing to help them learn. When you train at Frequency Martial Arts, you are not just a member of a team, you are part of a family!!

My son has been training at Frequency Martial Arts for almost 2 years now. He has grown so much since we started. No longer is he afraid to talk to kids, especially ones older in age. He has made some great friends in class. I love how each class is not solely focused on BJJ but also incorporates how to handle bully situations.. At FMA, kids respect each other and encourage one another to try their best and work their hardest. This comes from the great coaching of Ed and Mike. You won't be disappointed if you enroll your child or even yourself!
