Three of my children train here (9,7,5) and have been for about 2 years. We have seen huge improvements in their jiu jitsu game, their confidence and their mental toughness. coach Matt, Colton, Gio and his teenage boys are wonderful coaches and examples for our kids- who are also full of BJJ knowledge! They are super passionate about their craft and it shows. Matt has a great way with kids- and my boys especially look up to him and respect him immensely. This gym and sport have become a huge part of my families' life and the amazing other parents, kids and coaches in the room make it more than just an extracurricular activity for my kids. I would highly, highly recommend OG for any child to learn BJJ. You won't find a better gym or people to teach your kids.
Mat and the guys at OG BJJ are great.
Instruction is second to none, general atmosphere of the gym is very chill and a fun, great room to be in especially if you’re looking to compete and improve your game
Dropped in for a couple classes while in the area and had a great experience! Instruction was clear and top notch, the guys on the mat were welcoming, and I left both sessions feeling like Iearned a lot. Will definitely visit again if I'm back in the area. Highly recommend BJJ gym!
My son participated in summer camp at on guard and had a great experience. Matt was very supportive and ensured my son would feel comfortable, integrated with the other kids and interested in all techniques and drills over the days.
Amazing experience at On Guard. I came up to visit BC for 3 days. Everyone was very welcoming and the rolls were great. Matt is an amazing coach and practitioner. In just these few days I already have many takeaways to improve my game.
We’ve had such a great experience at this academy. No fancy advertisements or flashy signs are needed here - the results, the coaching, and the community speak for themselves.
Coach Matt truly sees every child as an individual. He gives immediate feedback, recognizes each kid’s strengths, and helps them develop techniques that work best for their own style and abilities. That personal attention has made a huge difference for my child.
In just 6 months of training, we’ve already seen incredible progress in his skills, confidence, and mindset. The environment is competitive and pushes kids to challenge themselves, but it’s also friendly, supportive, and welcoming.
All of the coaches are passionate not only about jiu-jitsu, but also about building a strong community around the kids and families. This gym clearly develops athletes who are able to compete at a high level, while still keeping great values and sportsmanship at the center. We’re so grateful to be part of it. Oss!
I started to train in On Guard about a month ago, and I can already see the improvement of my BJJ game.
Matt is an amazing coach (probably one of the best coach I've ever met), he is very knowledgable and he always let you know how to improve your game.
Everyone are so friendly here and I love to train in On Guard, if you are looking for a place to get better in BJJ, OG is the place to go!
On Guard offers an excellent program for both kids and adults. The coaches teach safe and effective techniques, the training partners are great people and Coach Matt stays on top of sanitizating the gym wiping down the mats before and after every class.
Matt Kwan lives and breathes BJJ, and every coach he invites to help shares that same passion and respect for this sport. If your goal for your kids (or for yourself) is to be surrounded by people they can look up to and be inspired by, On Guard is the place to be.
The On Guard Ladies class is also great. It is fun, safe, and super supportive environment for both beginners and pros. Coach Claudia is amazing at making everyone feel welcome from day one.
