"I dropped into this place from out of town just for a month and I was instantly welcomed warmly. This place carries Bjj as a true martial art. Respect and reverence for the art and the community as well. Great instruction and technique as well. I’ll see you there any time I’m in town!"

"Attending this gym has been my first experience with martial arts. It was an amazing introduction and I enjoyed the positive and friendly environment. This is a great gym for anybody wanting to dip their toe in the water and is nervous or anyone seeking an amazing community."

"Fantastic place to train for all ranks. Plenty on competition to maintain and build skill. Great space, plenty of room to roll without being on top of each other. Matt teaches and builds in easy to learn format. Relaxed atmosphere to learn Jiu jitsu."
