Proffosor Noah is a great gym owner and athlete. Same goes for professor Vic. This location truly lives up to the Atos name. Tacoma is really lucky to have a world class gym like this. Love coming here when I am in town. Thank you guys for all the lessons!

Would never want to go anywhere else ... to get a beating. Jokes aside, very intense, and very educational. Am looking forward to my journey in BJJ and am glad to be under the guidance of Prof. Noa and the rest of the team.

Great environment and coaching for beginners with a tons of additional students with higher belts always willing to teach and help newbies to the sport like me. There are a ton of classes all through the week at different times. Professor Noah is a great athlete, mentor, and true martial artist who dedicated his life to the craft which shows in his classes. Hope to see you on the Mats.

I had been wanting to start training BJJ for a while, and I'm glad I found this place at the beginning of the year. It felt like home right away. I did the trial class and signed up the next day. Everyone is so welcoming to beginners and we all just want to help one another improve. Professor Noa harvests a great culture and is extremely knowledgable and friendly. If you're thinking about starting your BJJ journey, do it now! It's a challenge, but it's totally worth it. Atos Tacoma is the place to be. 🤙🏻

I moved to Washington State in January of 2023 from Los Angeles Ca and I was itching to find a new place to train and hopefully call my home. I've been training for a lil over 7 years now and I've been around a few jiu jitsu academies. I'm very fortunate to have trained under schools that nourish a positive environment and promote growth both on the individual level and of course on the jiu jitsu level. I am very confident and happy to say that I've found that nourishing environment here at Legend Jiu Jitsu of Tacoma (an affiliate of Atos).If you are familiar with top bjj schools then you already should be familiar with the name Atos, as they've produced top ranked world champions. Prof Noa and Prof Vic are two of the most fundamentally sound and technical jiu jitsu black belts that I've ever experienced. You can tell that their style is suitable for everyone and if you are looking to grow your jiu jitsu game or are curious to see what it is all about, these two gentlemen would be the perfect teachers to start you on your journey.Coach Ben, (may look intimidating when you see him) but he is genuinely one of the nicest humans I have ever met. He is also very fundamentally sound and he teaches the morning classes on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. He is a sponge that is capable of absorbing all of what Prof Noa teaches and he is able to re-teach and demonstrate those sound techniques in the morning class.I should say that I am currently a purple belt, and I am confident my jiu jitsu journey and practice will grow exponentially from training here.All of the students at this academy whether they are white belts to black belts are ego-less and that is what you want in a jiu jitsu school.

I had been visiting from California and was looking for an academy to train at during my stay in Washington. I have to say, I’m so happy to have had the opportunity to train at Atos Tacoma. The culture of the school was immediately felt. The people were so inviting, encouraging toward one another, and so hospitable toward me. They emphasize technique over brute strength, which I love. The techniques that were taught that day were taught so well and with crucial detail, and for someone who easily forgets the technique of the day unless drilled repeatedly, I can still remember and implement effectively. I definitely would love to return when I visit again. If you’re looking for a school to train jiu jitsu, I highly recommend this one! Thank you, Atos Tacoma!!

Dropped in for Open Mat and received an island🤙🏼 and warm welcome by Professor Noa and the Atos/Legend Team. Professor Noa was gracious enough and open to provide instruction on techniques in-between rounds and I could clearly feel his passion for the martial art and his exceptional teaching ability. This gym is a must to stop through and train if you are in the area.. Thank you Professor Noa and the Atos/Legends Team.. Ossss🤙🏼🙏🏼
