I tried a few classes at another bjj school in NJ, but after one class here I knew it was the one for me. The instructors are great and so is the usual crowd. Everyone is friendly, patient, and understanding. It felt like I found a new little community. On top of that I come out of every class feeing like I learned something new. Truly a great place with the best people. 10/10 would recommend.

Great all around school. I started two years ago with zero experience. Lou is very good at teaching techniques and very professional. Plenty of class options available to fit anyone’s schedule. Highly recommend for people looking to get in shape and learn self defense.

Have been there three months so far. The head instructor Lou is extremely professional and welcoming. The atmosphere is very supportive, members all strive to help each other learn and grow as Jiu Jitsu martial artists. I originally joined to get into shape and lose some weight. In doing so, I have found BJJ to be both physically AND mentally interesting, fortifying, strengthening, as it tests your capacity to learn and grow in multiple dimensions. Would recommend to anyone.

Professor Lou’s teaching style is excellent, and he really takes his time to give everyone individual attention when there’s something that can be corrected in your game. Great atmosphere, everyone is helpful, humble, and respectful. Honestly one of my favorites places to be on any given day.

I have learned so much in such a short amount of time, I’m moving my body more than I have in a while, and my stress levels are way down. It’s a great physical and mental workout. 11/10 recommend!!
