I highly recommend joining Jiu Jitsu Life. The gym has knowledgeable instructors, effective curriculum, and a welcoming team. In my opinion, the gym has the best hours/schedule of any combat sports gym in Connecticut.

Only in town for a few days needing to train…found this gem!! If you’re within an hour of this place, come train. Professor Sargent and everyone in the gym was so hospitable and awesome to roll with. May our paths cross again!

There are plenty of gyms out there that can get you fit, but Jiu Jitsu Life is so much more than that. It is a family run place where everyone, young and old alike, can train and focus on self-improvement. Each training session, whether it is strength training, kickboxing or Jiu-Jitsu is focused on helping you discover the best version of yourself. Brian and Sharlene care about the members and are always nudging you gently out of your comfort zone each day for your own benefit. I highly recommend this gym, as it will exceed your expectations for not only the fitness workouts, but for the quality of the lessons you will discover on the Jiu-Jitsu mat as well. It is a life-changing place. Try a workout and let it change yours.

Jiu Jitsu Life is the best training facility you’ll find. With world class instruction and unlimited classes, I’ve gained confidence that only comes from knowing that you’d be able to defend yourself and protect those you love if need be. You don’t have to visit or try out any other gym; Jiu Jitsu Life SCA is home.

Both my daughter and I have been going to Jiu Jitsu Life for a year now and the level of instruction, facilities and price just can't be beat! Neither of us would want to go anywhere else. The outside of the building isn't as shiny as a lot of other places, but within you'll find world class instructors and training, for fitness and jiu jitsu!

I’ve been visiting from California for the past week, and decided to come here to train. From the start, Sarg and Brianna made me feel at home. Everyone else on the mats was very welcoming and helpful as well. Any one teacher’s jiu jitsu game is different from another, however, most great teachers have a few important qualities they have in common. Patience and attentiveness. Sarg is no exception. In addition to his legit credentials, and wealth of knowledge he brings to the table, he will stay with you working a specific technique until you have it down pat. If I lived anywhere in Connecticut, I would not hesitate to make this my home gym and train every day. It’s definitely the place I’m going whenever I visit in the future.

Awesome place, I visited and tried it out and learned a lot, unfortunately moved away to another state pretty soon after. Sarge is a great guy, and charges a very, very reasonable price because of his passion for Jiu Jitsu and passing it on. I highly recommend joining.

Me and my wife come here every day in the morning. We do the fight fit and jiu-jitsu to start our day. My son comes here in the afternoon as well for jiu-jitsu class. I even bring my Thanksgiving guests over here. In short it is a very family friendly place.

I showed up to Jiu Jitsu Life a little over 3 months ago completely out of shape and overweight. I am happy to report that since I've joined, I've lost 60 lbs. and I've basically been given my life back. Coach Sarg has been an huge inspiration and motivator for me - he always knows how to get maximum effort out of me, and his teaching methods are to-the-point and extremely effective. I've never once felt lost or out of place at Jiu Jitsu Life - our gym feels like one big family that I enjoy being a part of a couple hours a day. As someone who's never done jiu jitsu before, it has been an addictive learning experience to say the least - I am constantly learning and evolving everyday. Their Fight Fit classes are designed to get the best effort out of you every single time - under Coach Sarg's programming, I am now able to lift heavier and push harder during my workouts than ever before. I recommend Jiu Jitsu Life to anyone and everyone, no matter what shape you're in - you don't need to be in shape to start, and I am living proof of that.

Jujitsu life has had an incredible impact in my life and The life of my family. Since I started I now bring my wife my daughter my son my sister and my brother-in-law in to train. There are very few men I've met in my life that has the character that Coach Brian has. In my opinion Jujitsu is the most rewarding activity that I can do with my family. It teaches discipline, humility, and work ethic. I consider it an honor to have such a high level coach as Coach Brian in Wallingford Connecticut. I Challenge anybody that's reading this to come down to Jujitsu life give it a week and Watch how addicted you will become

I will admit i was intimated as someone with no martial arts experience to give ju jit su a try but after my first class I was sold on it. Coach Brian gives you the structure and encouragement needed to excel and everyone there makes you feel like you are part of the family.

Jiu jitsu life is the best training facility in the state of Connecticut. Just walk in the front door and see the caliber of Athletes that are training and have trained under a true vested black belt. I have recommended my family members and closest friends to join and they are extreemly pleased with the results. Since my son has started less then 6 months ago he has adopted a stringent training ethic, healthier life style and phicial strength he never achieved in other sports. Drop in and see for yourself..... You will be impressed and most definitely not leave an angry person.

A taste of West Coast Jiu Jitsu. Getting his Black Belt from Royler Gracie himself, Not to mention training with his close friends and training partners Dean Lister, Jocko Willink, and Jeff Glover for over 20 years. His dedication, experience level, and teaching motivation is unmatched. Jiu Jitsu Life is an amazing environment where we not only are teammates but also part of a family. I've been training jiu jitsu competitively since I was old enough to tie my belt, having won multiple Worlds and local tournaments throughout the years. Whithout Coach Brian and his support and dedication I wouldn't be where I am today in my Jiu Jitsu Journey.

I started in May this year and can't get enough of it. Brian is a great coach. The combination of whole body training and jiu jitsu is amazing. I liked it so much my three kids do it as well (1 boy 2 girls). I would recommend it to anyone.

Jiu Jitsu Life is a place to become the best YOU possible. The owner and black belt instructor at the gym is an inspiring instructor. His back ground and Jiu Jitsu pedigree is beyond reproach. He coaches my 8 year old son, my beautiful wife, my parents and me. During his military career Coach served our country with honor, and now serves our community with that same distinction. I feel blessed to have found Jiu Jitsu Life, as I am a better person for it in so many ways more than physically. Jiu Jitsu has also strengthened our family bonds, as my eight year old son and I always have something to talk about, Jiu Jitsu, and he loves to tell me what he’s learned each day. My son is more confident, more respectful, and becoming a great leader, in large part because of his amazing coach at Jiu Jitsu Life. I take a picture of my first step of the day here every morning, because I'm here for the 6:30 am Fight Fit strength training class, then for the 7:30 am Jiu Jitsu class, and I couldn't be more proud to tell the world and challenge them to come join me. At the last local tournament, Jiu Jitsu Life had 9 competitors enter, garnering almost 21 medals. What’s more impressive is the dozen members of the gym and their families who came, just to cheer our warriors on. You truly are part of something here. With all due respect, I have to call foul on Angry Ang’s review. Frankly I’m offended by it and know it to be false. I have been a member of Jiu Jitsu Life since it’s opening, I am often there 5 days a week, more than once per day as the whole family takes classes at different times. I can honestly say I know everyone who comes to the gym, and I don’t recall ever seeing or meeting you. To the contrary of what your post infers, Coach demands the highest respect for and from EVERYONE who steps on the mat, male or female. I trust Coach with the tutelage of my son, my wife, and my mother in law, which includes rolling, and have never seen even a modicum of disrespect towards them or anyone else. On the mat we are all just warriors. Perhaps you weren't aware Jiu Jitsu was a close contact sport. The gym also offers no contact strength training which might be more comfortable for you. If not, there is likely another gym close by that offers Zumba. I could not recommend Jiu Jitsu Life enough. It is life changing and I miss it every day I can’t be there. ANYONE is welcome to contact me regarding this wonderful place.

The slogan states be part of something which is a difficult statement to believe and fully undeestand until your give Jiu Jitsu Life a try. I didn't expect to feel like I was part of a family and gain such a strong spirit of comradarie in a week! The owner and his family create an atmosphere of trust and community beyond anything I have experienced. You will challenge yourself beyond your limits (trust me) because of this environment and feel like you can't make it through the workout, but then immediately miss the academy as soon as you leave. I strongly recommend that you give Jiu Jitsu life a try. Wouldn't trade this experience for anything.

When Covid shut everything down in March they continued to collect payment for months. When we finally got in touch with them to find out what was going on. They refused a refund or a credit for future months. Then they claimed they were open the whole time. Extremely shady business.
