I checked out all of the schools in the area before I decided to finally sign up with Bodhi…read moreCollaborative, and I couldn't be happier. First and foremost, the instructors Juan and Tristan are exactly what I was looking for. Simply put, they're fantastic! They're incredibly knowledgeable, structured, and approachable. So much so, I feel like my jiu jitsu is getting better than I had anticipated because these guys will actually roll with you even if you're a white belt and a true beginner...something that I hear you don't get in most schools. There are also beginner classes that are taught by Vince, Angel, and sometimes Fernando. These guys are also awesome. There is no rolling in the beginner classes(which is the most fun), however, I have learned the most technique in these classes because they're taught properly. I can't say enough good things about the beginner classes. I feel like I can ask them anything and they always take the time to help. This gym also has a great atmosphere. Being a new guy I can see the great relationships that have been developed throughout the years prior to me joining. Everyone is really laid back and accepting. I'm starting to realize that it could be very easy to dismiss white belts in jiu jitsu, but at Bodhi they seem to be embraced. All of my new teammates are so helpful. There are no bullies here, which I hear can also be a problem in some schools. One of the main reasons why I also joined Bodhi is because I wanted to learn Gi and No Gi jiu jitsu, which are both very cool in their own way. Some schools do not offer both, just one or the other. I've been wanting to learn jiu jitsu since I saw skinny little Royce Gracie choke out dudes bigger and stronger than him in the early 90's. It took me a while, but I finally decided to do it. I couldn't be any happier with my decision. I'm here to stay until Juan and Tristan put that black belt around my waist someday. It's gonna take a while because I really suck, but I am addicted! Look nowhere else if you're considering jiu jitsu. It's high level and fun at the same time at this school. What more can you ask for?

They serve as amazing positive role models for the kids, which is a stark contrast to the style of many local sports clubs we tried. My son loves going to the dojang and is proud to have earned his blackbelt. As a parent, it has been REALLY FUN watching his and his classmates' strength and confidence grow. If you are looking for a rewarding and positive activity for your kid/teen, you have to give this dojang a shot. We feel blessed to have found such a great school.

There are beginners and world champions training on the mats every day, as well as striking and MMA classes taught by a sitting Mixed Martial Arts Champion in the biggest league in the state. My personal experience is that training with these people has helped me lose 100 pounds, and get my health in order while giving me tons of self-confidence that permeates into all of my other deaings. I've been training with the team now for 3.5 years and Jiu-Jitsu has completely changed my life. I'm in shape, I compete and I met the girl of my dreams on the mats! It's a Cinderella story!

This school is run by Master Greg Washington and it has been such a blessing to my family. My son…read morestarted when he was 5 here and Master Washington helped turn around some pretty bad behavior traits. He started listening more and was way more respectful after having things reinforced at the school. Beyond just the behavior bonuses the training is top notch in TaeKwonDo, with my son winning both State and National Championships in 2013 in sparring and placing 3rd in both tournaments in forms. This year (2014) he took 2nd in Sparring at State, and 3rd in forms, with Nationals coming up in July. Another aspect is that he has made so many friends, that go beyond just the school. He regularly goes to his TKD friends houses for playdates, probably more so then the kids from his school. It is a no contract school which means you can pay month to month without being locked in. I think this is super important as a parent because why get locked into a contract if your kids do not like it after a month or so? Everything is very family oriented and Master Washington makes a personal connection with the kids in class, following up with how they are doing in school and other parts of their lives. Master Washington has a first class free policy so the kids can give it a try so you have nothing to lose for coming in and giving it a try!
