It starts from the top down at The Base. Ben to the black belts to the brown belts to the purple belts to the blue and white belts. Respect, hard work, technique, love for jiu jitsu, love for you team mates......New white belts are treated with respect. The upper belts have bnot forgotten what it's like to be the new white belt. I'm not saying it's easy.....but it is very rewarding cause you know that what they are teaching you is the real deal so when it does start clicking then you know your learning the right way from the best that Idaho has to offer in Bjj. Best bjj school in the state of Idaho by a wide margin and it can hang with any bjj school in the northwest easily. Highly recommended.

We LOVE this place! My son Jaxen looks forward to every practice and talks about it easily for a couple hours afterwards too! It has definitely helped him behavioral wise as well! I’ve recommended this place to many of my friends ;)

A worm and friendly environment that pushes people to be the best that they can be. Some of the most amazing coaches that I have ever worked with. Everyone is easy going but fair and willing to answer questions to insure that each student leaves better than when they came in for class. A great way to get into shape or peruse competitions and or earn rank whatever your goals my be.

This place is awesome! Period. I came here from another state looking to continue to my BJJ journey and found the Base. Welcoming people and top notch instruction from Ben the head professor and all his staff.Ben takes the time to explain each move and allows plenty of time to drill and free roll. If you want a legit place to train and have fun look no further.

Its a family you want to be a part of. Professor Ben and his staff are just as happy helping a complete novice as they are helping an advanced athlete. Athletes from elsewhere in the country regularly come in and are very welcome when they do. Its definitely a place you won't want to leave and there's a reason why they are the premier Jiujitsu academy in Boise.
