    Both my young children have attended this school for several months now and both love Professor Bill and the other instructors! The kids and parents that attend the school are well mannered and genuinely nice, kind and helpful to the new students! I highly recommend this bjj school!

    I dropped in this past Monday. There was a kids class going and Bill(the instructor) was leading class. After a few mins, he came out to greet me and welcome me in. A couple students were there and everyone was very welcoming. The facility was clean and well maintained. Mats were in excellent condition. They have a fair sized mat. However it is oddly narrow and long. There’s plenty of room, it just feels a little odd when you first walk in. The room is split down the middle with a warm up side to stretch and workout with weights, bags, etc. bathrooms in the back were clean and well kept. There’s plenty of space for people to sit on the side and watch and a fair sized lobby separate of the training area. The students were nice and friendly. They were good rolls. Most of the people I trained with were my age, 30-50, and gave a good, hard, technical roll. No one was really spastic or felt dangerous to roll with. The best thing about it was after the rolls, I did not feel like I got ran over by an angry blue belt. I got a good solid workout from these guys. The instruction was on point. There are few guys this technical that can teach it that well. Definitely felt like the instruction was top notch. Simple, clear and concise direction of class. He taught 4 techniques from closed guard. All of them tied in to one another and made sense in the sequence. Well thought out instruction. I will be going back. I’m not a competitor. So I don’t know how they match up competitively, but they have quite a few competitor medals hanging up. So take that as you will. Facility ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Instructor ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ Rounds ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️(the class was small. So low sample size) Schedule ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Openness ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    From out of town, and needed a place to train, the instructor Bill welcomed me with open arms. Attending the Brazilian jiu-jitsu class led by bill, who embodies the perfect blend of informativeness, attentiveness, and patience was an absolute delight. Throughout the session, the instructor demonstrated a deep understanding of the techniques, providing clear and detailed explanations that were easily grasped by students of all levels. His attentive nature ensured that each participant received personalized feedback and guidance, fostering a supportive and inclusive learning environment. Furthermore, Bills remarkable patience shone through as he took the time to address individual questions and concerns, fostering a sense of confidence and progress among the students. Overall, this class was a fantastic experience that left me feeling motivated, empowered, and eager to continue my Brazilian jiu-jitsu journey.

    Had an amazing time at Old School BJJ! Professor Perez is awesome! He breaks down everything so it’s super easy to understand, especially for beginners. He’s great at giving one-on-one tips, which I really appreciate. The place itself is spacious and clean, perfect for drilling and rolling safely. It’s also super welcoming for families, which is pretty cool. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been at it for a while, you’ll fit right in. Definitely a top spot for anyone into Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu!

    I’m coming back next time I’m in town. I was only in town for one night and emailed ahead to see if I could stop by for the evening class. I received a quick reply welcoming me. Great guard passing instruction and a good group of people to train with.
