Excellent facility and even better people. I was on vacation in the Dells made the 45 minute drive based off the reviews and wasn’t disappointed. Everyone was extremely welcoming, and the classes were amazing. Thank you Jordan for the hospitality I’ll definitely be back next year!

Dropped in for just one class a few weeks ago. The instructor was incredibly outgoing, welcoming, and laid back, as well as a good teacher from what I saw. The the gym overall seemed like a great learning environment and community. Definitely recommended for drop ins!

I was in town for work and messaged Jordan about dropping in. When traveling, I only bring my no gi apparel, but I was able to borrow a loaner Gi and had a blast at their 0630 Drill to Win class. We went over three different entries into the baratoplata, followed by 30 minutes of drilling. Everyone was very welcoming and the mats were super clean. I had a great experience and will definitely come back if I’m ever back in the area.

I was visiting from out of town for a few days. Excellent classes with multiple black belts on the mats. I will be coming back when I am in the area.

Sanctuary Jiu Jitsu is top notch. I’ve been training over 6 years and spent the last few months at Sanctuary and haven’t regretted a single day. Jordan is very detailed in how he instructs and can make the most complicated techniques into something everyone can do. The cherry on top is most definitely how welcoming everyone is as soon as you step foot inside. There’s a reason why Sanctuary is as successful as it is without binding everyone into a yearly contract or any “fine print”. 10/10 recommend!
