I've trained at Lionheart for over three years. In my opinion, there is not a better Jiu Jitsu instructor than Professor George Wehby. He explains the concepts of Jiu Jitsu in a way that is easy to retain at any level. I have had the opportunity to visit other academies, and have found the instruction at Lionheart to be superior. Give Lionheart a try and you will not be disappointed!

This school provides the perfect blend of a fun, welcoming environment and quality instruction. I have trained in eight different styles at various locations over the past 21 years, and Professor Wehby is by far the most accommodating instructor I have ever had the pleasure of training under. Whether you’re an experienced grappler, a striker who struggles with grappling (like me), or new to martial arts all together, this is the place to be. I truly can’t speak highly enough of Professor Wehby and his academy.

I came over from England, and asked to join a session and absolutely loved the place. It has a fantastic atmosphere, lovely people, and has a warm family environment. Professor George, is friendly, and articulates drills & movements very well. I felt extremely welcome! unfortunately I was only able to train a month, and was incredibly sad to stop!I plan to return as soon as possible, it is a fantastic place.

Great family atmosphere, wonderful place to train. Instructors teach the Jujitsu concepts like no where else I’ve been. I’d give it ten stars if I could.
