Royce Gracie Jiu Jitsu Academy

"My son and I have been training at Underground for over two and a half years now; we both enjoy it a lot and have a great time in class. John is a great instructor and is really good at simplifying the moves and explaining them well in a way you can easily understand the movements and the reasons why we do them the way we do. An amazing self defense school. My son has grown so confident and opened up more socially over the last few years and I feel that training here has really helped with that. Friendly people that help each other get better every class, great atmosphere. I highly recommend."

"At Underground Jiu-Jitsu, John and Winona offer quality self-defense-based jiu-jitsu training in an environment that welcomes everyone, from beginners to advanced students of all ages. They will do their best to meet you where you are and help you train to reach the level you want to achieve. If you think you want to try jiu-jitsu, this is a great place to start!"

"I cannot say enough good things about John and the studio! They have always been extremely welcoming and kind people, and always have the students best interests at heart. My son has always been very interested in martial arts, and meeting John has only amplified that interest and love for it ten fold! The dedication that the studio shows to its teachings and attitude is unparalleled in the area. If you are looking at getting into Jiu Jitsu I HIGHLY recommend visiting Underground Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, you will not be disappointed."

"I love watching my kids learn here. You can already tell the respect and discipline they got from being in class. They have learned a lot more than just athletics here, the coaches teaches them about everyday situations, to have respect for your self, parents, and family. They learn how to control themselves at school if ever to come across an altercation. My boys really like coming because it’s fun for them, the coaches make it enjoyable for the kids."

"My son loves his time at Jiu Jitsu! As parents we appreciate that they teach lessons beyond athletics - being a good person, being healthy, and being a good student. The coaches are super patient and great with kids! The classes are balanced well between content/learning and fun games so the kids don’t lose interest. The pricing is very affordable and the membership structure is perfect for busy families whose schedules change weekly. Overall Jiu Jitsu has been a really positive experience for our son—thank you!"
