Awesome Gym with an amazing atmosphere and knowledgeable as well as friendly instructors. Plenty of mat space and great gym equipment. All of my training partners were confidence, skilled, with friendly rolls. I will suggest anyone who wants to train or drop in for Jiu-Jitsu and New Orleans to this business.
I visited here a couple times during vacation and only have positive things to say. It's a nice, clean gym. Very welcoming and friendly community. The instruction was very good, seemed thoughtful and planned out. Safe training partners. Would definitely go back.
Black belt here who dropped in recently while on vacation. The team at nola bjj was super friendly and welcoming towards me and other students as well. Got in some awesome training while here. I would recommend training here if you live here or are in the area.
I came here for the judo. All of the senseis were very helpful. They follow a slightly "looser" style of teaching, allowing everyone to work on what they want to work on, and warm up of your own accord. There's a good group of people that come, and it is a tournament/competition minded group. They have it once or twice a week, and their monthly rates are not bad.
Super welcoming gym. Walked In with my stuff and was allowed to train. Super great structure of the class as well. Learned a ton from the coaches here. People were super friendly and great training partners. Will definitely be back!
