We've had 2 of our kids enrolled in the kids' program for several months now and we know it's been a great outlet for them. Coaches Brandon and Remy are exceptional. They're incredibly patient with the kids and do an amazing job of redirecting and guiding them, even when the kids get a little rowdy. They strike the perfect balance between keeping things fun and maintaining structure, and it's clear they genuinely care about each child's growth and success. We trust Brandon and Remy completely with our kids' learning and development, and we know they're in great hands every time they step onto the mats. We're so grateful to have found this program and would highly recommend it to any family looking for a supportive, positive environment for their kids.
Safe, fun, engaging, skill-building lessons. Great community. Brandon knows every participant by name, and checks-in regularly with them/their parents to ensure a great experience.
I’ve been going to the Intro jiu jitsu class for 2 weeks now and I’ve been really enjoying the classes and the people I meet. Coach Brandon is so knowledgeable and great at helping explain different moves and techniques. I look forward to the next 3 weeks of this intro block.
Top notch gym. Great coaching and training partners.
We've had a fantastic experience at 519 Jiu Jitsu! The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and kind, creating a welcoming environment where everyone can learn and grow. The kids' program is outstanding, with coaches who do an amazing job building skills and confidence while making classes fun. We highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to learn Jiu Jitsu in a supportive and positive atmosphere!
My daughters have been going to 519 Ju-Jitsu and they love it! Coach Brandon and the community are amazing with the kids. They’re really patient and explain every move in a way that’s easy for them to understand. One of my daughters was really shy to begin, but coach made the classes fun and exciting. They can’t wait for the next class each week. It’s been great to see their confidence and skills grow over the past year. I would definitely recommend 519 Ju-Jitsu to anyone looking for a great place for their kids to learn and have fun!
I just wrapped up my 5-week intro program, and I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. I’ve always wanted to try BJJ, but I was nervous and didn’t know what to expect. Martial arts felt a little intimidating at first, but from the moment I walked through the doors, everyone was welcoming, supportive, and respectful. It didn’t take long for those nerves to disappear. A huge shoutout to Brandon. He’s an amazing instructor who explains techniques clearly, he is patient with beginners and creates an environment where everyone feels comfortable learning. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping his students improve, no matter their experience level. The gym has a great atmosphere, and the people here made me feel like I belonged from day one. Every class has been challenging, fun, and motivating, and I’ve learned so much in just five weeks. I’d definitely recommend giving this gym a shot. I’m glad I did.
I've bounced around a lot of BJJ gyms over the years and 519 definitely has one of the most welcoming, down-to-earth atmospheres I've ever experienced. The first time I ever attended a class, everyone was respectful and treated me as a teammate. I think a big part of that boils down to owner and head coach, Brandon, who seems to have a wealth of knowledge and clear passion for BJJ that I think spreads across all members. Brandon's instructions as a coach are crystal clear (making learning a sport like BJJ much easier) and takes the time to ensure every member understands what to do and how to get there.
My son has been attending 519 for six months, and it has been a great experience. While he never really connected with traditional team sports, he has found interest in Jiu Jitsu. The environment is incredibly supportive and provides a solid foundation for kids and beginners. Brandon does a wonderful job of offering constant encouragement, which provides confidence both on and off the mats. I’m glad my son gets to be part of this positive and kind community. If you are looking for a place that focuses on personal growth, a positive atmosphere, and community, I highly recommend checking them out!
