Welcoming gym for all levels. Great for all styles of MMA. Family friendly and very nice facility.
Best gym in Florida. The coaching is phenomenal, amazing environment, extremely welcoming. You won’t regret coming here to say the least.
THIS GYM ROCKS. The people, facility, and instructors are all top-notch. Whether you're a first time student or experienced martial artist they will make you feel welcome and right at home. Submission grappling, gi jiu-jitsu, striking, wrestling if you can think of it, there's a class for it. Truly cannot recommend this gym enough. I stop by to train here every time I'm in town. GO CHECK EM OUT!!
Great place! The gym is clean, spacious, and welcoming. Jay, the owner, is a phenomenal instructor—he breaks down techniques clearly and pushes you to improve, no matter your skill level. The community is friendly and supportive, making it feel like family. If you're looking for top-notch Jiu-Jitsu training with a dedicated coach like Jay, this is the place to be!
Great place to train. I've trained martial arts in various countries for 20+ years and these guys mean business. Never a session where you don't get a sweat in and I always learn a lot. Some of the hardest geezers I've ever met and definitley one of the most welcoming Dojo's I've stepped into. Instantly made friends that I know I'll have for a long time! Lovely bunch of people both on and off of the mats. If you're looking to start or continue your martial arts experience I'd definitely pop in.
Love this gym and all the people in it! It has been an amazing environment to train in. Whether you are new or have experience this is definitely the place for you. There are morning and evening classes to fit whatever schedule you may have, with great instructors. 10/10
Professor Jay is an incredible instructor! My first class with him and I immediately noticed a unique ability to teach that separates him from the average school. It's great to have knowledge and experience but being able to teach those lessons learned is a gift. And Professor Jay has that gift. Go check this school out and you will quickly learn things you didn't expect. You will progress quickly too. His concepts and breakdown of complex movements into simple steps is a game changer. Aetherial WILL be a movement in the combat sports world. You can be a part of that journey!
This gym like a family they will be there for you when you need help on anything they are all really kind an nice one best gyms I recommend.
Amazing gym with top notch coaching. I drop in whenever I’m in the area visiting relatives and I always leave better. Best bjj gym around, you won’t be disappointed.
I came here on a free trial, and decided to keep dropping in for a while. I signed up for the upcoming competition, and even though I didn’t win, I held my own. I went on to win several more competitions down the line, including a gold medal at the Gulf Coast Regional Championships. Six months in, I can already feel a deeper change in my spirit. Plenty more growth to come.
I’m just in town for the holidays so I reached out to the gym about swinging through for an open mat session. The gym was great and fully equipped with a sauna and cold plunge, but even more importantly the Aetherial team was incredibly hospitable and a great group to train with!
Amazing Group of people, Awesome Coaching, the Atmosphere and the community is top notch. I totally recommend training at Aetherial Jiu Jitsu
I have not only lost 60lbs and counting but I have also been able to make some solid friendships and life changes since being here. Highly recommend
Great coaching, Atmosphere, community and many different classes to pick from. Best gym I’ve been to !
Always clean and the owner is very knowledgeable. All the coaches are very professional.
Awesome place with great people to train with. A variety of classes and skill levels.
Amazing place to train. The staff led by Professor Jay is fantastic. The team at this place is beyond words. These guys have it figured out.
Fantastic place. Amazing classes super knowledgeable. Great for new to jujitsu and experience people.
Had a 3 day trial, and it was awesome! There’s definitely a lot to learn, but every time I leave, I feel sweaty and energized
Great place to learn or sharpen your BJJ skills. There are also the options for yoga, aerial silks, kids classes, and concealed weapons education/training. Jay has the talent few can match, I would highly recommend getting involved with Aetherial.
I really can't say I expected any Jui Jitsu coach (or both coaches - thanks coach K!) to be so darn good at teaching adults and kids. Teaching adults and children requires different sets of skills. Somehow, both coaches (Coach K and Jay) have the skills to instruct adults and children. Making it fun and exciting enough for kids isn't an easy task, but they do amazingly well at it. I can't say enough about how great this place is. More than happy to give them my money.
This has been my favorite gym in the local area since I’ve started jiu jitsu. There is something for everyone here, and truly a community of learners, friends, and martial artists. Everyone here is kind and one of my favorite things about it is seeing the high retention rate of new BJJ students. I believe the culture here is conducive to learning jiu jitsu and one of supporting each other in a process of continuous improvement. Jay is a phenomenal coach and is always integrating new elements of BJJ into the curriculum to help us get better, and he also encourages people to develop their own unique style.
First, Jay is the greatest coach I have ever had. He is next level when it comes to breaking things down and ensuring everyone understands. Beyond that, he is just a great person. No one could be a better role model. He has managed to not only create a gym but create a family. Highly recommend coming in.
I just started training here. Professor Jay is extremely knowledgeable and easy to learn from. As a beginner he made me feel very comfortable when joining.
Minor disclaimer: I’ve had only one class there… But sometimes when you get a feeling about a person or place you just know. Ya know? And I know this place rocks!! Everyone I came into contact there was incredibly welcoming and friendly. I stopped by a few weeks ago to meet with Jay and tour the place and immediately went home and signed up even though I knew I wouldn’t be able to make it back for a couple of weeks. The entire place is clean and well lit. Everyone is very respectful. And I had a great time meeting some wonderful ladies at the She Devil jiu jitsu. When you’re there you feel like they want you there for you, not just your money. Highly recommend!
Have been bring my boys to the gym for about a month now and it has exceeded all my expectations. Not only are the boys learning a great martial art from Professor Jay but are around great role models. Highly recommend.
My wife and I stopped by when we were in town, and we had a great time. Competent, friendly instruction, clean facilities, classes started on time and were as advertised. Super nice people and good sparring rounds. We will definitely be back next time we're in town!
Welcoming, clean, and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend. The owner/professor here is extremely knowledgeable. Him and each and every coach under him are so talented and judgement free.
Bright clean new dojo, I loved my visit here for a women’s jiu jitsu class followed by co-Ed fundamentals.
Took the concealed carry class and it was very informative! The instructor is very knowledgeable, and has put together a class that gets you ready to decide if carrying a is the right choice for you.
Holy smokes, what as beautiful facility to do Jiu Jitsu in! I just love this place. Coaches and trainers are friendly and helpful. So glad I get to train here.
Jay is an excellent instructor, and person. His perspective on real application is second to none. You are not just joining a dojo, you are joining a tribe. Everyone looks out for one another. The concepts you learn can be used in everyday life. So much is being offered, by quality instructors. Love my tribe.
Aetherial has top level instructors and is very knowledgeable in mental and physical health. Highly recommend being apart of this family.
I have had a few instructors over the years and Jay is one of the best! Highly recommend!
Profesor Jay is an amazing coach and teacher. He is very knowledgeable and will help you figure out how to a technique in a way that works for you. He is very encouraging and doesn’t only want to see you do good in martial arts but in life. He really truly cares.
Absolutely love the mindset and the environment of unique people. Highly recommended!!
