I've known Coach Deon for over 4 years and have competed at his tournaments every year. He's got a great group of guys and girls. No other team around is doing what brasa is doing. The love and drive they provide is unmatched. Love stopping in for promotions, seminars, etc.

I’ve known Deon for a very long time and I can say without a doubt he is a one of the most technically sound instructors in the country. I was scholarship wrestler for Michigan State and have been around grappling coaches my whole life he’s right up there with the best. I highly recommend him.

Deon’s uniquely cerebral style of teaching combined with the welcoming culture he’s created makes this academy the best I’ve ever been to. If you want to try Jiu Jitsu but are nervous because you’re not sure what the atmosphere is going to be like , look no further. This is a warm welcoming environment that will push you to be your best self on and off the mats.

My son has the privilege of training at Ohio Brass's Jujitsu, and it is an exceptional experience from start to finish. The facility was impeccably clean, reflecting their commitment to providing a safe and hygienic environment. The coaches were truly excellent, demonstrating deep expertise in jujitsu and working seamlessly with students of all ages, including children. Their patience, encouragement, and tailored instruction created a nurturing atmosphere where everyone could thrive. The focus on working with kids was evident, as the coaches struck a perfect balance between discipline and playfulness, fostering a love for the martial art while instilling important skills. My journey at Ohio Brass's Jujitsu was a transformative one, characterized by camaraderie, personal growth, and a sense of belonging. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking an outstanding jujitsu experience.
