If you wish to learn authentic traditional Brazilian Ju Jit Su, from the ground up and from a lineage that is the central bedrock to this amazing art. You must reach out to Coach Mike Contreras of Four Point Base BJJ. This is the best place and instructor in the area to learn BJJ from. I drive four hours, from Pennsylvania, to and back to his gym, in order to train under Coach Contreras and his students. Locals to this gym in Ohio, have something really special right in their backyard. Go get after it! Team Vaghi for Life!
I was in town for just one night and wanted to train. So I found 4Point Base BJJ and called to see if they wouldn't mind if I dropped in for the night. Coach Mike and his team welcomed me. It was a great experience and I will definitely stop in when I am in town some other time. Thank you to 4Point Base BJJ for allowing me to have a great night of training.
Coach Mike shows more attention and dedication to each individual student than I've seen from any other instructor. From the first day, it is obvious that he cares about his students and has a deep passion for teaching BJJ. He will make you feel right at home even if you're a complete beginner. If you've ever wanted to get into a sport/hobby/martial art, then give the free trial a try and see if it's right for you. :)
Mike is a wonderful coach with a hands-on approach and patient spirit. Mike has created an environment for learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu that welcomes and challenges all levels of experience. Whether it’s your first class or you’ve been practicing for years, Mike brings years of experience, enthusiasim, and patience that keeps you wanting to return and learn. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has and continues to help me grow both in the sport & as a person. I am happy to call Mike my coach and 4Point Base my home for learning all that Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has to offer.
Started going here 6 months ago as an overweight 40+ year old. A super supportive and low stress environment to learn a new lifelong low impact sport, get in shape and form friendships. Coach Mike is very knowledgeable and, more importantly, a excellent instructor. If you are waiting for the right time or thinking you need to get in shape first don't, just join. BJJ as it is presented here is self paced and allows you to stay in and expand your own comfort zone. My only regret is not joining sooner. One of Ostrander's hidden gems.
I'm 51 and have parkinsons disease just started in October (I think)Coach Mike is welcoming to the great group of people and everyone has helped and give pointers. I have learned a lot and want to think everyone there. Thank You for the opportunity.
I love this gym !! Coach is very experienced, attentive, and dedicated to our growth in the sport.
We started one of our kids at 4Point Base and within a month had 5 of our kids attending every day. Mike simply loves to teach and it shows. I could not imagine a better experience!
I have known Mike and have trained with him for well over 10 years. He is the greatest coach I have ever trained under and an even better human. You can't go wrong training here.
Great gym to train at for kids and adults. BJJ is challenging and fun and Mike makes it very enjoyable. Great instructor and awesome at making adjustments to techniques to make it work for a wide array of people. I have three kids in the kids class and they LOVE coming to class (and practicing at home between classes). Mike always has time to field questions and tries to make sure everyone is comfortable before moving on. He answers questions without making the asker feel dumb for asking the question. That seems simple, but not every instructor masters this like Mike. Very impressed with his knowledge and patience!
Amazing instructors as well as classes! Well worth the time, and very useful! I am in the kids class and love the quality of the classes!
Coah Mike is an incredible guy! His knowledge for all this is amazing. The way he makes the body flow and execute all types positions is so awesome. Really nice, works with all ages, highly recommend checking this place out!!
I highly recommend 4Point Base. I currently have my 12 yr old son and 10 yr old daughter enrolled at 4Point Base. I am especially pleased with confidence my daughter is exuding after just a few months of training! Coach Mike is wonderful with the kids and does well at individualized instruction to meet the skill level and needs of each student while in a group setting.
My family knows Coach Mike on both a personal and professional level. His knowledge and professionalism is outstanding. Better yet, he is kind, entertaining, fantastic with kids of ALL ages, honorable and is a true TEACHER. We appreciate Coach Mike and his entire family. What a treat to have his BJJ school right here in Ostrander!
Coach Mike is awesome! He is able to connect with each individual, and is amazing at teaching. Each class you will come out with more knowledge and a better understanding of the sport. Highly recommend it to anyone of all ages!
I highly recommend 4Point Base! Mike is so respectful to each and every student and incredibly knowledgeable. My son (9) enjoys each class and soon we will be signing up the whole family! Don't miss out on this opportunity.
Been training with Mike for 5 years now. Great focus on the basics and technique to really hone in your personal game! Also, the kids class is amazing to see your kids be apart of. My daughter is gaining confidence in herself and ability after every session! Thanks 4Point Base for being a “cornerstone” in our little community!
Mike is simply one of the best humans you will come in contact with. I have worked with him for years and thrilled that he has pursued his dream of opening a school. He works with me (41), my 16 year old son and 9 year old daughter. He caters to each individuals’ skill set and age. BJJ is definitely a lifelong journey and you should bring the whole family out and give it a try.
