More jujitsu classes to include a expert level. Cardio kickboxing and an amazing striking program. My 8 daughter trains kids jujitsu there and loves it. It's the only sport that she has stayed with and loves going to class. The instructors are amazing and I have no idea how they get my kid to listen so well. Proud to say my wife is a member of the Main Chicks Jujitsu Team, the largest women's jujitsu team in the Northeast. Over 30 strong and still growing. Just attended an amazing seminar there by Ryan Hall, this season's winner of The Ultimate Fighter. I'm always seeing the areas top jujitsu black belts and professional MMA fighters coming in to train with Andy and Mike Main. The group of people that I have the privilege of training with are the best I could ask for, we all want to see each other improve. Andy, Mike, and all the instructors there have proven to me time and time again that truly care about my development as a martial artist. I feel completely comfortable knowing that I can walk up to any person there to help me. Doesn't matter if I want to practice, drill, or just have a knowledge question. The people that have been training longer will alway take the time to answer my questions or help me find the answer if they are unsure. I started training here just for fun. It has definitely been fun and so so much more. It has become something that my wife, daughter, and I have in common and can bond over. A great stress reliever and confidence booster. The people at pure have become our friends and going there is so much more then just training.

We initially took an intro class because our son has special needs. They have been extremely attentive with him and still hold everyone to appropriate standards for their experience level.
