I’ve been training No-gi bjj here for just over 6 months and I wish I had started years ago. This gym has a great community. Coach Justin’s knowledge and love of teaching combine into a program where you can see real progress being made each week, for students of all levels. Wish I didn’t have to leave so soon.

I've been competing under Justin for coming up on 3 years this Fall, and not one thing that he has said has fallen short. The approach and strategy for this match was to try to get to a leg lock, being my opponent is a teenager and likely had no skill set in that realm. He was exactly right - when I went for the knee bar and switched to an ankle lock, she had no idea what to do, tried to go for her own ankle lock with a failed/terrible attempt. If you're not 100% sold with what he has to offer, it's really at your own demise. Take this as brown nosing but at the end of the day, real recognizes real. Lock in with the curriculum or you'll be turning your own wheels. It's your choice and your performance will speak for itself.
