I don't go here regularly but I've dropped by to roll quite a few times since 2006…read more It's exactly what I would expect from a bjj gym in Nola. It's like a pop-up in the back of a gym. There are exposed brick walls and some other characteristics you expect to find in these old buildings. It's next to a bar. The students are all friendly and many of them are interesting characters with crazy patches or mismatched neon color rash guards. One guy had a patch on his gi of Johnny Cash flipping the bird, which is the best possible patch if you ask me. I'm surprised there isn't a bar in the back of the gym or a brass band playing while we spar. Professor Matthias is an excellent teacher. I'd also imagine he'd be a great coach ringside as he is always very good at identifying opportunities for attack when we spar. He's also a really down to earth guy with some good stories. I wish I had the time to do bjj seriously again. It's frustrating to know that your skills are devolving while the bjj game keeps changing and evolving, but I guess that's just what happens when you get old. If I did have the time and inclination I would be proud to be a member here. You should check it out.

I became a member of this dojo in December, 2011, with no prior background in martial arts. Aikido…read morewas recommended to me particularly by a trusted friend in the security industry who has vast experience in self-defense. I opted for the beginner's package, which includes 2 months of dues, and a discount on the uniform. This proved to be a great introduction to this fascinating martial art. In two months' time, I had learned the fundamentals, and I shortly became comfortable enough to begin attending classes for all skill levels, while continuing to polish the techniques taught in beginner's classes. Aikido appeals to me because it is a martial art of peace, and the objective is to neutralize attacks through the use of throws, joint locks, and pins, so no one is injured. My monthly dues are affordable, and allow me to train at the dojo any day of the week, as often as I like. I especially enjoy changing the days that I visit, because each instructor has something different to demonstrate to me, and I feel that I earn a very well-rounded understanding of their teachings. I strongly recommend Aikido of New Orleans to anyone interested in self-defense, Japanese martial arts, or simply a great work-out.
