Second home to me. Every dollar for a membership is worth it. The best place for someone who is focused on work but still has a competitive spirit. Everyone is respectful and helpful. The only place where NoGi Grappling is taught and not everyone are high or arrogant 🙏 …

I was on a business trip and and came as a walk-in. I was welcomed by Marty, a black belt that led the training. We did two techniques attacking the turtle position, very effective and was well explained and monitored. Sparing part was great, Marty made sure the sparing partners are well matched, no injuries and lots of fun. I really enjoyed training there.

A few things I appreciate about the academy:- The coaches are truly passionate about teaching and bjj- Classes involve both theory and practice- Classes are serious, but people also make sure to have fun and joke around- Great course booking system. Leo is very responsive to my questions about the membership and classes
