Fantastic coaches and high-quality programs! My son absolutely loves his Jiu-Jitsu family. The coaches teach so much more than just the sport — they instill important values like respect, discipline, confidence, and perseverance. It’s wonderful to see the positive impact they have on the kids, both on and off the mats. Highly recommend!

My 4 year old son had a wonderful experience with the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes! He really enjoyed his time there, and the instructors were kind, patient, and great with kids. It was a very positive and welcoming environment, and I loved seeing him learn new skills and build confidence. We are very thankful for the experience and would definitely recommend these classes to other families! ❤️🥋

We couldn’t be happier with Coach Kyle and the entire staff at Bora Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. From the beginning, they’ve made Ben feel welcome, supported, and like a valued part of the team. Ben has had an incredible experience at Bora. He’s not only learning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and developing his skills, but he’s also gaining confidence, discipline, respect, and an understanding of what it means to work hard and persevere. One thing we really appreciate is the balance the coaches have with the kids. They’re encouraging and supportive, but they also understand that children need structure, boundaries, and accountability. There is a necessary firmness when it comes to the relationship between coaches and students, and it’s always handled fairly and respectfully. The kids know what’s expected of them, while still feeling supported and encouraged to improve. We think that balance is extremely important. Coach Kyle and the staff genuinely care about the kids and their development, both on and off the mats. It’s been great watching Ben grow in confidence and ability while learning lessons that extend well beyond Jiu-Jitsu. We’re very grateful for the positive environment Bora has created and for the time, patience, and dedication the coaches put into their students. Ben has had an amazing experience, and we would highly recommend Bora Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to any parent looking for a place where their child can learn, grow, build confidence, and have fun.

My kids have been going here for years. The coaches do a great job of teaching real skills while keeping the classes fun. Kyle and Matt do a great job of running the place.

I've been training here for a few years now and its an amazing place for all levels! Variety of days and different hours available for a busy lifestyle or family and work schedules. Very friendly and inviting to anyone who walks through the door. Highly recommend it to anyone already training or looking to train. You build a rolling family here and it's supportive and provides appropriate feedback to improve your skills. Great place to leave your comfort level and challenge yourself :)

Visited this gym while I was in the area for work, and they are outstanding! The head coach has amazing BJJ and is very professional and friendly. The gym is clean and spacious and they are very welcoming to everybody. As an active competitor myself, there was no shortage of good rounds to help me prepare for my next competition. Their training style is very unique and utilizes cutting-edge BJJ training concepts like CLA and specific situational sparring on top of the traditional technique shown that class. Highly recommend for anyone in the area.

Had a really great time here with their beginners course. Was looking for something new and active to learn, instead of being on my phone or not being productive… and my gawd did I find it. It’s a complete body workout, using muscles and strength you never thought you had. Shaq is an awesome and patient coach - Thank you! If you’re looking to start something new or just need to get out of the house a couple times a week and be active, try Bora BJJ. It’s a really great and welcoming place.

We visited the Stoney Creek area and this place went above and beyond in accommodating our three year old ju jitsu master. Amazing coaches, very clean and organized facility. Highly recommend.

When visiting from out of town, the folks at Bora welcomed me to drop in and join a sparring session. Rolls were great, everyone was very friendly and I hope to join them again sometime when I'm in town. The facility was clean, and they have showers. Overall I'd highly recommend them!

The experience of training at Bora is fantastic. The professors are excellent teachers and practitioners of Brazilian jiu jitsu, the facility is clean and bright, and the culture welcoming and inviting. My first day, no less than 10 people came up to me, introduced themselves, and had an actual conversation with me, welcoming me to the gym. Training bjj can be very intimidating when starting out, but not at Bora. Whether you are experienced or brand new to jiu jitsu I would highly recommend training with the team at Bora!

Start with a free trial and you won't regret it. Super clean facility. Kid friendly environment.My son absolutely loves Coach Kyle and can't wait for his Tues/Thurs nights classes. If you go with the annual plan it's less an $20 per lesson (including the uniform)... a absolute bargain for what you get!
