I had an amazing experience training at Soulcraft. Brad and the rest of the instructors have created an amazing training environment for their students. I only trained there for a year, because I moved back to California, but I would highly recommend them if you are looking for a place to start or continue training BJJ.

Although I tried group lessons at other dojos, based on my busy schedule constraints I determined that the private lessons option worked best for me in terms of packing as much training and detail into every session, with a dedicated coach to provide real-time instruction and feedback. Brad worked with me to develop a BJJ game plan that suited my skills and interest (age 52 years, non-competition focus, instead with emphasis on self-defense, technical skill development, and (most importantly to me) fitness and sustainability). Brad is a very knowledgable and patient teacher who is engaged and cares about his students progress. The environment at Soulcraft is friendly and welcoming to all, from us older adults down to the kids. I highly recommend Soulcraft Martial Arts for your training needs.

I travel 40 mins out of my way to train here. Positive, friendly, supportive environment. Instructors here are very patient, easygoing, and true BJJ enthusiasts. Can't wait to get back to training! - Beau

I was able to attend one of Brad Wolfson's seminars at a Jiu-Jitsu camp a few years back, and I'm still using some of the pointers/techniques even to this day! Brad is knowledgeable, professional and patient with his instruction, and I'm looking forward to running into him again sometime in the future. Highly recommended!

I started training here about 7 years ago and I've been here ever since. Ages range from under 5 to over 50. There are people who have no martial arts experience and are just looking to try out a new activity, as well as people who regularly compete in local tournaments. The instruction is top notch, and it's a great community. Give it a try!

Soulcraft Martial Arts is one of the best places to learn vital skills to defend oneself and to have a blast doing it. My experience training here has been nothing but professional, informative, safe and fun. I highly recommend!

I had a wrestling background, but found a home in this gym. By all accounts, Brad is "plugged into" the local community.Whether your goal is competition or fitness, I highly recommend Soulcraft to those considering. It is a place where you will be surrounded by those who eat, sleep and dream about BJJ, without losing the perspective that can also make the gym a home away from home.

Just started training here and can’t say enough good stuff. The coaches are always emotionally present and clearly invested in your training. Their passion for jiujitsu and teaching is tangible. I am grateful for this being a newb not only for the quality instruction but how their teaching style is reflected in their students. Everyone here helps you be better. If you are thinking about joining, JUST DO IT!

Brad is one of the best instructors i have come across. He is a great person as well. I've had the privilege of learning from him at multiple camps and seminars.A person would be lucky to learn from Brad.
