  Did a session tonight with Heather, Rachel, and Jen leading our Towson Women’s Lacrosse players and staff through self-defense fundamentals and it was an engaging, informative and absolutely empowering hour together. The girls certainly will feel more confident and strong in the future! We are so grateful for the experience!

  I visited Hereford BJJ when I was in town to see family, and came to a nogi class and an open mat. Good mat space, clean, etc. I worked with Richard in class, and rolled with him again at the open mat, and I felt super comfortable and safe, as a visiting white belt. I used something he and Tom taught me a few days later actually, and that was really fun for me! Thanks for hosting me!

  My son (5) has been taking the kids all level class twice a week for about 4 weeks. He absolutely loves it, he wakes up each morning and asks "is today Jiu Jitsu?" He has gained confidence and the class helps him use some of that little boy energy. The coaches have been great, coach to kid ratio is exceptional and each kid is coached where they are. We've been looking for a way for our rambunctious little guy to have a place to be physical and safe and we found it!

  When in search of a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym with great training practices and a welcoming atmosphere, you need not look further than Hereford Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Fun combined with safety expertise and cleanliness, it has everything. The positive energy is felt right from the minute you walk inside. The coaches are highly knowledgeable with loads of mat experience, but immediately stand out because of their friendliness and support.: every student, whatever level he or she may be, is treated warmly and encouraged. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or just starting, there's a place for you there. Safety is always guaranteed, and it clearly is visible. The coaches ensure that every movement is carried out safely under control so that everybody can learn and progress without worries. Another asset is how clean everything is: the building is kept in amazing shape, which adds to the overall experience. Obviously, they are huge sticklers when it comes to matching one person's hygiene to that of everyone in the room. Overall, Hereford Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a great place for training, for friendship, and for relaxation. Highly recommended!

  If you’re looking for world-class Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instruction in a welcoming and supportive environment, Hereford Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the place to be! I’ve had the privilege of training with Coaches Richard and Tom for about a year, and their passion for the art is matched only by their dedication to their students and the community. Whether you’re a total beginner or a seasoned practitioner, they make the journey accessible for everyone. If you’re on the fence about starting, don’t hesitate—these guys and their amazing team will take care of you every step of the way. Oh, and one last thing: Coach Tom’s music selection during class is *chef’s kiss*. Come for the world-class instruction, stay for the vibes! You won’t regret it.

  Most reviews will say that Hereford BJJ is a great place with great instructors. That is certainly true, but it does not explain why I don’t just train here, my family NEEDS THIS in our lives. I’m a married father of two boys, work a stressful 9-5 job, and the last thing I want is to add a complex, expensive or demanding hobby to my life. With the popularity of BJJ, there are several gyms around where a person can get in shape, learn self-defense and discipline. Hereford BJJ does that and so much more. First, this is not just a new gym, this is the dream of a close group of friends to share the love of a sport, a home to bring families together, and a place to invite neighbors to build strength in each other. My oldest son is a natural athlete, plays on the school football team, is hard working and disciplined. At Hereford BJJ, and affiliated schools, he can train with friends in a safe place, is both challenged and rewarded by coaches to put his best efforts into training, and to be a great teammate. Herefeord BJJ has partnered with a scholastic wrestling program and offers this instruction to students. This gives a pathway to excel in the fastest growing school sport and numerous opportunities for success. The coaches not only bring their experience in BJJ, but experience as parents, with patience and dedication to kids along with more experience than a belt’s color could ever indicate. My youngest is a child with special needs and medical disabilities. Some of the coaches hold credentials in special education and are incredibly supportive. BJJ itself was modified from other martial arts by the founders to mitigate physical limitations and discover strengths. No other martial art is as adaptable. It offers training for everyone, especially those that may struggle with other sports. It can help improve mobility and offers a way for kids not only to defend themselves, but to gain confidence. Kids and adults are welcomed into a diverse group of people from all walks of life and all abilities with a variety of personal goals. For myself, training was expected to help me improve physically and mentally, it has done so much more. Training with the founders of Hereford BJJ has introduced me to a group of people that build each other up, a home to socialize, friends to enjoy success with, and a foundation to stay grounded through life’s struggles. This is a community that I am proud to be a part of. It offers incredibly rewarding work guided by the greatest coaches and teammates one can hope to meet. Hopefully anyone that made it this far in my review might find that they need this in their life as well.

  Great instructors who make it a family affair. Followed them here when they started this school. When I first started a few years ago I wasn't sure if it was for me. Welcoming instructors, atmosphere, and classmates made me want to keep coming back and learn. Learning a martial art can be daunting (especially in your mid 30's) but these guys make it fun. After I bit I realized I was actually learning alot while I was having a good time, making great friends, and getting in good exercise. It is much more mentally engaging than wasting an hour running to nowhere on a treadmill. I lost 15 pounds the first few months and noticed I am more physically fit. Built up my core quite a bit which eased my chronic back pain. More flexibility too. Added bonus learning an effective self defense style and actually use it in class against an actual resisting person. Come to learn a martial art and get fit. Stay for the great friends you will inevitably make.

  If you’re looking for a place to train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, this is it! Friendly, knowledgeable instructors that truly care about your success whether you’re looking to get in shape, compete, or learn self-defense. The prices are fantastic and they don’t nickel-and-dime you for promotions, belts, gis, etc. They offer classes for both adults and kids, so the whole family can train in the same gym! Love this place! It’s the BEST!

  If you are looking for a jiu jitsu gym that is relaxed with an amazing community feel then this is the place. Perfect place for any ladies wanting to learn self defense. As a woman just getting in the sport I feel welcomed and supported. I feel way safer walking around at night with the skills I have learned. Jiu jitsu is something every girl should learn and this is the place to do it.

  You won’t find better instructors! These guys are the best; creating a safe and truly welcoming atmosphere! They go out of their way to make sure everyone feels accepted and HAVE FUN! Walking into a BJJ class can feel intimidating - these guys alleviate that anxiety immediately for both adults and kids! My husband and son train here and I am grateful to be part of this group that, even though sounds cliche, has become an extended family.

  My daughter and I both train here and couldn’t ask for better instructors. The main focus is Jitsu and not the McDojo nonsense that a lot of other schools are hung up on. If you’re looking for a place to just train Jitsu and leave the rest of the nonsense behind this is it.

  My daughter and I take classes here, and we are fortunate to have amazing instructors, especially the ones who teach children. These instructors have a unique ability to connect with their students, making learning both fun and engaging. Each class brings new challenges and opportunities for growth. My daughter thrives under the guidance of these talented coaches, who build her confidence and bjj skills. It’s inspiring to see how they tailor their teaching methods to meet the needs of each child
