    Absolutely LOVED my experience here. Purchased a Groupon. 5 kickboxing classes for 45 minutes each…read moreand a 15-20 min one-one training to understand the basics and comes with one free tee that is required to be worn during classes. People were extremely friendly, encouraging, and supportive. Instructors remembers your name after one class and corrects your form if it's not accurate so you don't hurt yourself and teaches you how to kick/punch better. Even the students there were so helpful as it was my first time and was willing to spend a few minutes here and there to correct my form. Scheduling classes was easy as there is an app to shows the schedule of various classes. Also, the place is clean is because there are no shoes on the mats. One thing I didn't like was that there are no lockers in the changing room and it's just a place to change and store your belongings. However, it was safe to leave your belongings there as you are working out. Would love to go back again!

    I was recently trying to rejoin the world of martial arts after a long time of being out of the…read moreloop. I had zero grappling experience and felt like Bjj was the absolute perfect art to fill said gap. I reached out via email and got a quick reply by voicemail and then by text. They were willing to answer all of my questions, even questions about the rates, contract, fees etc. They answered ALL of my questions AT the initial point of contact, which I very much appreciated and showed a stellar level of customer service on their part. So I showed up for my first introductory class, and as someone who's got plenty of experience in martial arts, I was looking for things that might be worth making note off: the equipment (such as the standing body-bags that the kickboxing class use for training) appeared to be in good shape, the mats weren't dusty or with any obvious debris and the place seemed generally to be very clean from the mats to the lockerrooms and bathroom. The instructers were all very kind to work with me and help me to develop my technique and understanding of what it is I'm getting myself into. It was a good class with great people, no doubt. The only thing I didn't like is the hard-sale strategy to sign the contract. That was why I couldn't continue, even though I really wanted to. Had I been presented with the contract differently, it's quite possible I'd be fully enrolled into my first month's classes right now. But they pitch HARD... for example, I wanted to take at LEAST two introductory classes before making a final decision, and I wanted to sleep on it. A 7 month contract (and that's just the ENTRY LEVEL contract which you are likely going to be asked to renew to a year contract in a few months once you're ready for advanced classes) is a big commitment when you're spending $219 a month, which they state is completely inflexible, regardless of income or situation and must be paid EVERY MONTH... no... matter... what... sick? Doesn't matter. Injured for under 6 months? Doesn't matter. You gotta pay). There are ways to get out of the contract, but ultimately, I was given the vibe of "but if you have an issue you will just call the company that handles our payments... they deal with that stuff" Still, this wasn't enough for me to rule me out. I still wanted it and could "kind of" afford it. The issue was that hard-sell. I am a salesman for a living and I can tell when someone is trying too hard to sell something. I see it everyday from my own coworkers and I respect them for it. Honestly I respect them for it here also. They need money. They are a business. It makes sense and there is nothing wrong whatsoever with that. The only issue though it is was the wrong approach for me and I felt like they should've felt my energy on that. I told them I was uncomfortable and wanted to take a second class and make a decision. Rather than saying something along the lines of "go... take the second class... and let me know what you think. If you need more time, that's okay. When you're ready, we'll be here and we'll be happy to have you as a part of the community "(what probably would've had me come back for AT LEAST a month trial). But what actually happened when I said this, is the gentleman seemed slightly disappointed and even slightly frustrated. He then replied, "... cool okay, but if you do this, I would REALLY need you to get back here right after so we can go over paperwork." It wasn't even subtle. It seemed too desperate. I kept replaying this in my mind, as a salesperson, thinking "man they really as desperate to get the sale..." I've seen it hundreds of times. The face when one of my collegues or even I can't close a sale... the emotion behind the reaction. It was all there and it was clear. No denying it. He wanted that paperwork SIGNED and I get why. It's a business, and businesses need money in order to operate. ... but I had to take a star for that... I was not comfortable and was even a little nervous specifically and only because the person working with me had too hard of a sales pitch. It made me decide that maybe this isn't the right choice for me right now and it unfortunately lead to me asking for cancellation before a single business day had passed. But on the plus side... these are all good people. They are trying to run a good business and have a good culture. I'd be happy to be a part of their community and would even recommend these guys if anyone asks. Everything seemed almost perfect about that place. The only thing that didn't work for me was the sales-pitch and the contract inflexibility. I probably woudln'tve noticed any of this stuff if I wasn't a salesperson myself so don't let my words make you look down on these guys. The world needs as much truth as possible these days, though which is why I had to write this review. Gave me some free gear, treated me with respect and gave me a good lesson; give em a shot

    Some facts about me for background: I am moody and can get super cranky, I was never athletic, I'm…read morenot even coordinated enough to tie my shoes the right way (I still do double-bunny ears, whatever, it gets the job done). Basically, I'm a joy to be around and clearly destined for the Olympics someday. Or whatever the complete and total opposite of that is. That said, I still am able to enjoy, push, and be proud of myself here. The instructors' patience will probably get them canonized someday, and the students are all really supportive and friendly, so it makes it a lot less nerve-wracking for beginners. The school is also really involved with the community and everyone seems invested in making the world at least a slightly better place. The instructors will work with you and whatever limitations you may have. Trust me. I have plenty. And thanks to BBJJ, I now also have sick abs and can throw my much larger boyfriend around a bit better when he acts out.

    Here's the deal. The teachers were great - especially Miss Parish who is excellent with the kids…read more(and quite cute and knowledgeable to boot) - but I feel we were misdirected by the management. We signed our 8 yr old son up for the "Junior Basic" class because he's a kid but what we didn't know at the time was that meant he would learn a VERY limited number of techniques (limited enough to bore the crap out of him in just a few months) and that they'd attempt to up-sell us very quickly. When we signed up we were under the impression he would be in the Junior Basic class for closer to a year at least. Now, because of our busy schedules our son didn't go very often per week (maybe 2x per week and not every week) so clearly he had a lot more practice and classes to go to. Yet within about 3-4 months they were not only trying to up-sell us but asked our son, "Would you like to be a black belt some day?" (Who says "No" to this question?) and followed that up by explaining that he would never get one unless he upgraded to a more advanced class for more money. Even my son was very disappointed by this and personally felt mislead by the school (never mind us). So he got bored with the limited techniques and since the school now left a bad taste in his mouth he quit. He stopped wanting to go. Nice going BBJJ! Not just my wife and I, but even my 8 yr old son left feeling wronged. There was also a vibe of constantly trying to get more people to join (bring your friend day for instance - they have a lot of these types of things) to an already full school with over-packed classes. Another thing they do which is strange is they give the kids belt credit by how many classes they go to. After each class they get a stripe for going and x-amount of stripes equals advancement. Now I'm sure this is just a technique to keep the kids excited but it is a far cry from what I experienced when I took martial arts. It didn't matter how often I went - it mattered if I could correctly perform the techniques taught. I was tested for my belts. I didn't just get one for showing up 10-20x. So sadly, I cannot recommend this school since they seem more concerned with numbers than technique. It is unfortunate to say the least.
