I have began training a little over a month at Redline Jiu-Jitsu. Prior to enrolling with Redline I spent a month searching for a place to learn the fundamentals. I did enjoy a few alternative places but when I attended Redline's session I felt confident this was the place I would understand the fundamentals and begin my curriculum. At the other locations I felt as if I was thrown into the fire and trying to pickup something I did not understand. I also didn't remember what I was shown when I left. There are people that are fast learners, however, I am not fortunate to be one of those people for self defense and grappling techniques so structure is what I need. Ty and Jen are great people and amazing instructors with a well organized curriculum especially for beginners such as me. They have passion in what they teach and care for students to understand situations and scenarios. They explain thoroughly (from what to do, what not to do, along with cause and effect of both) and walk students through steps until each one gets it. Most of the places I went the owners weren't there and at Redline I've always seen Ty or Jen or both teaching class. I enjoy this place. I will not miss a class because I am having fun and learning. read more

The owners at Redline are phenomenal people. From the second you walk in the door, everyone is friendly and encouraging. Ty and Jen have created and fostered an environment that encourages people to try Jiu-Jitsu and really grow in their practice. The instructors at Redline are all incredible and share the same vision. I've never done martial arts and was terrified to start. Most places throw you into the fire your first day. Here, they ease you into things with drills and fundamentals. There is a women's only class and classes for kids on top of the regular BJJ classes. If you're even remotely curious about self defense and BJJ, Redline is the place to start! read more

These guys are solid. As soon as I walked in the door Carl was there to greet me. He made me feel welcome right away and explained the history of the school as I waited for the GIANT kids class to get done and the open mat to begin. The owner was not there yet he arrived later and this guy is SOOO chill. He is a solid and true black belt. If you are in the area there are a ton of choices but if you want a school that will truly teach you and your little ones how to defend themselves this is it. read more

Tonight I was highly disappointed in the Redline/Gracie Brand. I am a current practitioner of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. My dad had expressed interest in learning more about Gracie Jiu-jitsu and I thought that I would take him to a "Certified" Gracie gym and have him learn from someone who had received their credentials from a Gracie. We arrived with approximately 20 minutes left in the kids class. We quietly stood in the back and watched the kids finish their training. When the kids class concluded the instructor passed by us several times and didn't even acknowledge us. We also observed a female that had been cleaning the mirrors had finished and came out to the waiting area. I assume this lady worked there because she related to a mother that she was doing sooo much cleaning due to Rener Gracie coming into town this weekend. She also passed us by without any acknowledgement. The adult class began and my father and I the moved to sit on the bleachers. On several occasions, the instructor looked out at us but made no effort to introduce himself to us. After approximately 30 minutes we began to head to the door. As we passed by a guy that had come in a few minutes earlier, he looked up at me and said hi. I responded to him..."you are the only person that has even acknowledged us tonight. Thank you." Not sure who that man was but I really appreciate his efforts. In closing....I would have expected more from a Gracie certified academy. My dad was so disappointed in his visit that he related to me that he will be seeking his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu instruction from another location. read more

I've been training at Redline Jiu Jitsu for nearly 3 years and the instructors and the community here are probably the biggest reasons why I'm still on the mat. Not only did I feel welcomed and encouraged from day 1, as a white belt, I appreciated immensely that they follow a "basics" curriculum designed to teach the most important fundamentals of self-defense jiu jitsu. Many academies use the "what do you guys feel like training today" approach, but this is really difficult to adapt to as a new practitioner. I loved that Redline offered a clear path to follow (especially in those early days when you don't know what's going on), and earning stripes was fairly straightforward, but also a huge confidence boost. I'd recommend Redline Jiu Jitsu to anyone who has ever been curious about the art as starting is by far the hardest part, and you'll be in excellent hands here. Ty is not only super knowledgeable about the art (and related arts), but his passion for martial arts in general and bjj in particular comes through clearly every single class. read more

This is a great place to train! The instructors have created a friendly training environment that helps to maximize the learning process! The curriculum is setup so that adult beginners develop a strong base in the Gracie Combatives classes before being thrown in with more advanced students in the Gracie Master Cycle classes. Additionally, there is an incredible kids program and a women's program. The kids program, known as Bullyproof, helps to bullyproof the students by providing the knowledge necessary to stand up to bullies in a non-violent manner, effectively teaching them to fight fire with water. Plus, the bullyproof program incorporates a character-building aspect that every parent will love! The women's program, known as Women Empowered, focuses on life saving techniques and signs to look for in a potential attacker. There is a free 10 day trial, so go check it out for ten days absolutely free! You won't regret it! I promise! read more

I have taken classes for female self defense as well as classes for my children. Every class is incredibly impressive. Ty and Jen are wonderful and knowledgeable instructors! They are also so great with kids! So much positive energy with lessons that will help you tremendously with every aspect of your life. We have always had such a positive experience here and everyone is always so nice! And as for the attention to cleaning that someone else mentioned. That is SO IMPORTANT in a gym. As a Mom trying to keep my kids safe from gym germs, I am thrilled that there was so much attention to the cleanliness at this facility. A special Thank you goes out to the incredible staff at Redline!! read more

This gym is fantastic! The staff is very friendly, helpful, and they make it a point to learn each kid's name and interact with them on a personal level. My son started class at age 6 with no martial arts knowledge or experience. My 9 year old daughter had NO interest in taking class so we would attend my son's class and watch. Within 2 weeks of observing, my daughter was SOLD! She saw how amazing the coaches are and she wanted to learn and participate. She is fairly shy so the fact that she felt comfortable and excited to join the gym speaks highly of Redline and their staff. I recommend Redline for all ages, we could not be happier. read more
