By far one of the coolest gyms I’ve been to. Coaches are super dedicated to jiu Jitsu and are constantly evolving. The students here are very welcoming and great to roll with. Highly recommend!
This place has been life changing for me , from self defense to wright loss and health
For some people it’s one day .. others day one !
Coach Liam is amazing and so is Coach Frizz. The kids program is awesome.
You will learn a ton and the schedule is wide open with lots of fun classes and interesting seminars.
The best joy Jitsu school in the north shore by far
First Colony is an extremely welcoming gym. I was nervous to try Jiu jitsu out and the coaches as well as students made me feel at home. They were supportive and patient. Thank you very much First Colony! I’ll be back
Been training here for just over 1.5 years. Amazing group to train with! Supportive environment for a beginner and everyone helped me get better though those first steps. I’ve heard of gyms where members go hard on beginners to “weed them out” but this place is encouraging as you go though the beginner stage which can be intimidating.
Outstanding BJJ academy. Instructors are in the game, rolling partners are serious and sane. Welcoming for every level. So glad to have this in our community.
Very supportive environment! Great teamwork here and definitely accessible to everyone. I've been really impressed at how much people want to help each other grow.
Extremely welcoming and motivating for beginners and for people with all different levels of experience. Great group of people to work and learn with. I look forward to continuing to learn and recommend anyone who wants to have fun and challenge themselves.
I've been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at First Colony for almost two year. During that time I've lost weight, made great friends and gained tons of confidence. Doing Bjj at First Colony is one best decisions I've ever made.
Dropped in for an open mat on a Saturday morning, and were turned away at the door by a brown belt. Told us “we don’t show up to your house when we hear there is a bbq” (ok, but if you did we’d still give you a plate?). Been to a lot of schools globally and never had this happen before.
