We've had such a great experience at Sheepdog Jiu Jitsu. My son is in the pups program, he is…read morenaturally shy and was really nervous when he first started, and even now he has moments where he feels a little scared. What truly stands out is how patient and understanding the coaches are. They never push him too hard but instead gently encourage him to join in at his own pace, which has made such a difference for him. You can tell they genuinely care about each child and want them to feel comfortable and confident. Because of their approach, my son has slowly started opening up more, and that means everything to us. I'm so grateful for the environment they create it's supportive, positive, and perfect for kids who may need a little extra reassurance. I highly recommend Sheepdog Jiu Jitsu to any parent, especially if your child is shy or a bit anxious. It's truly a special place.

I've not lived in Tulsa long and a lot of this area is new to me. As soon as I got to Cohesion BJJ and Judo I met the owner Steve. He was amazing! He answered all my questions I had about the academy and BJJ and trust me I had a lot of questions. Steve is patient and kind. When all the other people got there they all spoke about how they have so much fun there and how they have learned so much from Steve. It was like joining a family. My first lesson from Steve was great. He is a wonderful professor. He explained everything. I now know the difference between BJJ & Judo. You can tell that this is his passion because of his knowledge, ability to speak about the art, and his professionalism. If your new to the whole BJJ and/or Judo like me, I would highly recommend going to Cohesion BJJ and Judo.

I was pleasantly surprised at the care they take in making sure the youngsters are ready to engage in such activity. My daughter has been in for a few months now, has since turned 4 and LOVES it. I like how they teach the kids as much about excerise, respect and how to behave at home as well as the martial arts. They want you to be engaged with them and let them know if the kiddos are doing good at home and at school and that behavior is factored into their success in the program here. For me this is well worth the invesment!!!
