Every day this gym is open, every holiday the doors are open in the morning for open mats. Great jiu jitsu, great people!

This is a long overdue review. I've trained at many gyms over the last 10 years and this place is the best for many reasons.1) great culture, all staff, and members make everyone feel welcomed, no egos.2) Absolutely no pressure to join or buy any of their merchandise. Lots of gyms always sell you hard on membership and require you to buy their gear. I buy their gear because I love their branding and designs, something I'd wear outside of the gym.3) They are month to month with no cancellation or additional fees. Don't like it, all good, they don't make it impossible to cancel. You can also temporarily pause your membership4) They have 2 restrooms, air-conditioned facilities with a real ac, not a fan, and a massive parking lot5)Tons of class options, daytime, evening, and weekends6)4 gyms to party in, pay for one, attend any of the 4 locations7) They have a phenomenal kids program for ages ranging from 5-13. The head coach, Ryan knows how to keep the kids engaged and has a balance of fun and discipline. Most programs are either too relaxed where the kids are wild and interrupt other kids or too disciplined where kids don't enjoy themselves. I've taken my kid to three other wrestling/jiu-jitsu programs and this one is the best. Actually, after a bad experience at another location, my kid didn't want to train anymore and I had to bribe him to try a class here. 9 months later, he's already willingly competed in two tournaments and enrolled in anotherThere is tons more to say, but you just have to drop in and see for yourself.

I have trained here as a member for two years and have been coming to their open mats for about six. The coaches are all fantastic experts! As a female it's so important to feel safe and welcome where you train and they are great for that as well. I joined here about a month after having my baby and Ron made sure I was really ready to come back before signing me up. They care about people alot and small things like that really show that they care that their members are happy and want to be there.The kids program has games, techniques, wrestling circle, and rolling. It is so much fun to watch them learn and grow. Some compete, many do not. Usually there are several assistants in the room in addition to the lead coach to help give them more attention. You aren't going to find that kind of attention in any other activities. I can't wait for my daughter to be old enough to train here!Lots of parking, month to month memberships (without all the sketch so many gyms do to trap you, if it's not for you that's totally fine), mopped after every class, community welcoming vibes!
