Dropped in at Clayton Phillips Jiu Jitsu and had the honor of training with them for three days. The atmosphere was super warm and welcoming from the moment I walked in. Solid instruction, sharp, detailed, and easy to follow. Clean mats, great facility, and a really good vibe overall. Had a great time rolling with everyone and I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Norfolk!
Posted 7 months agoStarted rolling here a few weeks ago and have been thoroughly impressed with quality of instruction, variety of class offerings and overall responsiveness of Clay and his whole team. Top notch program and culture for anybody looking to progress on their Jiu-Jitsu journey!
Posted 7 months agoIt's been awhile since I felt this much joy on day one! I've been on many mats and of all of them there are few that on day one you just know this is a good space all around. Before I hit the mats the head coach was quick to call me back and answer all of my questions. He encouraged me to drop in and not to worry about mat fees. I was blown away at the level of instruction and the participation. I didnt feel weird hunting down a training partner or finding rolls during sparring. For me it was a different style and very humbling. They also have a womens only class on Saturdays which makes it nice for new ladies. If you're in need of a gi, they're ladies program also offers resources for gear. Definitely worth a drop in!
Posted 3 years agoI have been training at CPJJ for 4 years and some change after 2 years of training at other gyms. From the first day I walked in it has been nothing but quality instruction from Clay and sparring from him and his students. The environment fosters excellence for all levels of the art and imbues a love of learning. If you are an experienced practitioner you will find a combination of tested and innovate technique which is constantly improved upon. If you are brand new to grappling you will find a more than welcoming environment which simply wants you to learn and grow. If you have ever considered learning a martial art this is one of the best places to learn. Gi or no-gi. There is always someone willing to train.
Posted 1 year agoHaving trained at three different Jiu Jitsu gyms, I can confidently say that this one stands out as the best. The techniques taught here are consistently among the most current and effective. Professor Clay is dedicated to imparting practical skills that truly work, ensuring that no time is wasted on impractical methods.
