I recently joined Taylor Biagi BJJ and my experience has been nothing short of fantastic. I came into the gym not knowing anybody, but making friends & forming relationships here comes easy, as everyone is welcoming & eager to help. I highly recommend joining Taylor Biagi BJJ for the following reasons:
First-and-foremost, Taylor is an expert in her craft. She is a high-level blackbelt training for 14+ years, & her credentials speak for itself. Moreover, Taylor has coached BJJ champions, & has even trained UFC fighters asking her to help prepare them for their upcoming fight. This exemplifies Taylor’s mastery of BJJ, as being asked for help by people at the top of their profession is the ultimate sign of respect.
Taylor is also an excellent teacher & effective communicator, which is a crucial characteristic for a Coach to possess, as having the knowledge but being able to effectively teach it are two distinct skills. Taylor has a unique ability to break down techniques in a way that is understandable & easy to digest. This is not only a testament to her expertise/leadership skills, but to her preparation. She goes above & beyond in her duties by taking notes, strategizing what to teach/the best way to teach it, & even provides step-by-step instructions on a whiteboard displayed in class which helps encompass all learning styles. Despite Taylor’s mastery of the sport, she continues to be a student of the game.
Taylor also provides a team of instructors that are very knowledgeable & diligent in their preparation. I have already learned a lot from Taylor, Rohan, & Spencer, as they each offer different perspectives & insights in their teachings, making your progression/understanding of the sport even more complete.
I would recommend this gym to anyone, no matter their goals. There are students who compete, train as hobby, or simply train for personal fitness purposes. Everyone is welcomed & is treated the same. I have been to several gyms in the Chicagoland area, but none compare to the experience i’ve had here. As such, I implore anyone hesitant on joining/picking a gym to do yourself a favor & give Taylor Biagi's a try.
