I’ve been coming for about six months. I originally came for a Women’s self defense class and felt really empowered by the whole experience. I really appreciate Professor and the entire school! I leave each class with a better understanding of core techniques of BJJ, hangout with great people, and get a great workout too!

Our son started Procel BJJ in the Elite program when he was 13 years old. Although he began later than many of his peers, his development has been remarkable, and he always looks forward to his sessions. His consistent training has instilled a strong sense of discipline and independence, and I have been especially impressed by the level of self-control he has developed. When he participated in his first competition, his coaches supported him every step of the way. The sense of camaraderie among the kids—cheering one another on—was truly special, and we were very grateful for that experience. More recently, my son shared some of the safety principles they practice in class, such as applying pressure slowly to avoid injuring a training partner. I found this to be a phenomenal example of the values and lessons that are ingrained in the students. In addition, training alongside younger children has given him meaningful opportunities to practice leadership and mentorship. We are extremely grateful for Procel BJJ. Professor Brian and his team create an outstanding environment that supports not only technical growth, but also character development in their students.

Our family (daughter and son) has been enrolled in the children’s program going on our 2nd year. We’ve had a really great experience with Professor Brian and the coaches at Procel. Professor Brian keeps the classes organized, teaching technique, discipline and confidence in his students. He teaches the kids to work hard and earn their stripes (and that they are not automatic), you’ll also get candid coaching on what opportunities could help improve your skills/better benefit from the class. The classes are co-ed, which allows for a great opportunity to practice with a mix of students. Also important to us, is that there is a great community of girls in the class. With the school, we’ve had the opportunity to participate in in-house tournaments, a local NJ tournament, and a local jersey city demonstration, where Professor Brian has provided our family with tons of support. I also appreciate as a parent, Procel’s communication is top notch. We are always informed of what is going on for training on each respective week and for stripe testing. There is advanced organization of schedules and clear communication around closures and other special events. We appreciate the community at Procel and would highly recommend!

Can't recommend Procel BJJ enough. Professor Brian and all the other coaches have created one of the best training environments I've seen. Whether you're just starting out or you have years of experience, this is the place to go.

Procel BJJ deserves a five-star rating. I have been attending the beginner’s classes for nine months now. I have overcome my fear of being on the spotlight by joining my first ever in-house competition in the academy. It definitely boosted my confidence and self-discipline especially as a woman. Most of all, I’m glad to have met individuals with unique personalities from different career backgrounds but with the same goal of becoming the best versions of ourselves. Professor Brian and Coach Caitlin are two of the kindest people I’ve ever met. They truly are the strongest foundation of the school and the family that they created. I’m looking forward to continuing my jiu jutsu journey with Procel BJJ in the years to come. Cheers to getting my 2nd stripe today!!!
