The facility is one of the nicest jiu jitsu place I’ve been! They also have great customer service and they keep their facility clean and well maintained!

Amazing new dojo! The attentive staff, clean mats & incredible ambiance. I’m so happy to have my daughter enrolled here!

DTJJ - Clean, friendly and professional. Everyone there has great training background and most of all…they are all humble people. Willing to help you on your path in Jiu Jitsu. I feel they really want you to both succeed and feel comfortable both on and off the mats. They have often taken time after class to answer questions and to get to know you. I would highly recommend this place for both new and experienced people.
Awesome new place to train, it’s very spacious and the owners are very friendly. I highly recommend anyone looking for a good environment to train at to come here.

Amazing gym in the heart of the city. My kids and I train here. Kids classes are organized, they teach them discipline, techniques, self-defense, and they have a lot of fun. For the adult classes it’s competitive and at the same time they make new people feel welcomed and get to their level. Overall an amazing gym.
