Love this place!! Amazing atmosphere, and a great structured environment. Ryan is very patient while teaching a class full of kids! He is very knowledgeable and a competent teacher. He has great integrity. My boys (9&7) have excelled under his instruction in a few short months. Jujitsu has become a big part of our life. I can’t wait to see my boys continue to grow under Ryan’s guidance.

After training elsewhere for two months and looking for a new place, I was definitely made a part of the gym. Everyone is friendly and ready to work hard towards a goal. The facility is nice and hope to develop my skills more as I go on. Great coach and a great person to train alongside.

An amazing gym! I have seen my kids grow so much and become bully-proof! My daughter’s ability to defend herself and protect against an attacker is comforting as a mother. The family environment is like no other!
