(Lee)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter was very shy at first, but professor Mari took the time to encourage her, guide her, and help her feel comfortable. Thanks to her kindness and patience, my daughter slowly opened up and started participating with confidence. Highly recommended for any families looking for a welcoming Jiu Jitsu community!Posted on ChrisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Was traveling and they made me feel like at home !!! Love the training !!! OssssPosted on Shmoo FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been to BJJ academies literally throughout the United States. Rarely do you find a combination of amazing professors, a friendly environment and a tailoring of individual needs. The Academy of Champions JJ Academy is a unicorn amongst BJJ studios. So blessed to have found this place. It totally changed my life for the better (not only can I defend myself, but I lost almost 40 lbs in the process and am in the best shape of my life). Professors Antonio & Mari (both from Brazil) are incredible! In addition to offering a great environment for adult education, their children's program is also top notch. 5 stars are not enough for this wonderful place!Posted on P TTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 30 minutes into my first experience I knew this was my next home in my BJJ journey. This family walks the walk, talks the talk and leaves any egos outside; way outside. I will be joining in 2 weeks and unequivocally recommend.

Highly recommend coming even if you know nothing about BJJ!Posted on Grant AlexanderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After a 3 year lay-off I was looking for a gym to start back with that had a noon class. I was Invited to an older jujitsu roller group on Sunday evenings with an old sparring partner. I immediately felt welcome and knew I had a new training home. Professors Antonio and Jerome are excellent teachers and walk the walk. Their offerings are enjoyable for all levels. We even enrolled our boys in Professor Mari’s kids class. She has so much patience it’s incredible to watch her teach technique with all the chaos going around her. Anyways, can’t recommend this place enough. Great group of people.Posted on Justin BuchananTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
