The instructors at Alchemy took the time to teach my son as he was rolling with other students as opposed to letting a new student learn on his own with a more experienced child. Very very good instructors that re-ignited his love for BJJ. You don't need a black belt to teach a child, you need patience and the ability to communicate to a child. My son competed in his first tournament with Alchemy and can't wait for the next one. We have since moved to a new gym after re locating. It should be noted that our son was immediately competitive at his new gym. Thanks Alchemy 5 stars!!

Their team of staff and student leaders help each student progress individually while growing with your group as well. You don't just train--you become part of a community where everyone cheers for each other's progress. When they believe in the student, the student starts to believe, too. For me, it's been a chance to push myself in ways I didn't expect. The confidence you gain on the mat carries over into your life, whatever you're doing. And honestly--it's fun. Why is sore knees and sweating fun? Because even while you're working hard, you're learning new skills, overcoming challenges, and taking a break from everything else. It's like stepping into a different "box" for a while. I'm a firm believer that anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. You don't have to be great to start--you just have to start. Keep going and you WILL progress. You can try 2 weeks free.

I took her outside to try to calm her down, and Master Bang came over to us, calmed my daughter down, took her hand and walked my very clingy baby to the floor. No hesitation in her one bit, and she is not one to trust any stranger. I was very impressed with how excited and yet controlled these very little kids were. I only saw excitement and dedication in every child's face. My daughter was the youngest one of that class, this was her first experience in a large group, with rules and routines, she did better than I expected, but had about 3 tantrums in the 30 minute class. And each time, Master Bang,and the rest of the staff, calmed her down and had so much patience and kindness with her. I really felt that they care about their students. I can't say enough good things. On top of that, the area was so clean and well taken care of. I was so impressed!!
