"We have been on the mat with our pops since before we could crawl; the fact that we are now by his side instructing kids is unbelievable! After all the years of being in the kids' classes and playing all the games, we now get to spread the joy that we continue to feel from a sport that we now understand goes so far beyond the technique we teach."

GIVE YOUR CHILD THE GIFT OF JIU JITSU!
I have watched my kids train for their entire life. Their father also has practiced for most of his life and knows 1st hand the benefits that come with dedication to this lifestyle. For my family it was an easy choice to pursue and stay committed to the practice of Jiu Jitsu. For us the greatest joy of opening our family gym has been watching the evolution of each student (of ALL ages Noticing how posture changes as confidence grows, watching as they begin to shine brighter with enthusiasm for everything. It has been an incredible opportunity to share our passion with eager and excited students everyday.
