STG Jiu Jitsu

"Came out this evening to train at STG. We are coming from Texas and visiting the National Parks in the area. I thought I could go 6 days without BJJ, but needed to get some training in. Prof. Charlie is an awesome instructor and very welcoming. Gym is very nice and mats look new. If you are interested in learning jiujitsu get through those doors. Let professor Charlie guide you through your journey."

"Vacationing in St George and decided to drop in for open mat. Charlie and Amanda were super hospitable and made me feel welcome. Perfect place for families, clean facilities, and excellent people. Couldn't ask for anything more. Thanks again, see you next time I'm in town!"

"What a great experience! The club atmosphere is very welcoming and friendly. Charlie (the head instructor) is an expert communicator. He teaches the details that could be easily missed and teaches why they are important. I highly recommend STG"

"Prof. Charlie, & his students were great to train with. He can breakdown & demonstrate mechanics of techniques, so his students can easily assimilate. With precise supervision, constructive feedback, & excellent instruction. I will gladly come back & recommend anyone to train at his school :)"

"I have been a practicing grappler since 1984 and hold black belt rank in both Judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Charlie became my professor several years ago. Charlie is amongst the best coaches I have ever had, and that includes Olympic level Wrestling and Judo coaches. Although I came to him with decades of experience I learned a tremendous amount from him. Charlie has all the qualities you need in an instructor. He is patient and observant with his students. He is a lifelong learner himself, always experimenting and adding to his toolkit. Charlie is highly technical and knowledgeable both in Jiu-Jitsu technique and in fitness, strength and competition training. Many instructors don't roll with their students. This is not good because it leaves a critical gap in their ability to assess the student's progress. Charlie, on the other hand, walks the walk. He rolls regularly with his students, and I can attest he is an absolute handful (even though I outweigh him by a good 50-60 lbs.). I, along with my training partners here in the San Diego area, were very sad to see Charlie go. Saint George is very fortunate to have him and I promise that signing on to be his next student will be one of the best decisions you ever make."
