Description

Before Jiu-Jitsu became a sport, it was a martial art used primarily for Self Defense. Principles of respect, discipline, self-control, and patience are worked on. New CONFIDENCE and calm dealing of difficult situations are results of training. BJJ is a non-striking martial art ideal from anti-bullying and street techniques for man and women who cannot use physical force. It is based on techniques developed by the Gracie family since 1925. Since then, others have tried to learn from the Gracie family the fundamentals of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for different purposes. Learn from the Source!

The trainers are absolutely wonderful with the kids. The environment is very welcoming my son was shy at first. He has learned so much in a short period of time, he enjoys the classes. His confidence has increased. He knows that it’s helping him learn self defense techniques which I feel is a must for kids. I wish I would have started earlier than 10. My twin girls will start at 5!
They advertise this free workout challenge online and I thought it'd be good for the husband. We walked in, they made us sign a bunch of stuff, refused to confirm the whole thing was indeed free and when they finally admitted there would be a fee they refused to tell us the number until they had taken half an hour of our time trying to sell the program to us. After all the handouts they couldn't hide from the cost. Here it is in case you need it: 499 which is 500 dollars. They'll try saying there's a discount and that it was 600 originally. Bull. TLDR, their "free" training challenge costs 500 per person. There's supposed to be honor in martial arts, but this practice stains this school's.
Great gym! My son trains it. The children's class is amazing, and so much fun. In addition to having excellent teachers, and very patient to teach. I will recommend to all my friends.
great instructors providing safe, caring and fun environment for the kids. In a short time my son is picking it up and looks forward to advancing.
Very responsive staff who helped me get settled in as a visitor for two days. The instructors were so nice and welcoming to me. Easy parking for those who drive. I had great partners and will be returning again every time I am in the area.
I trained for one year in 2019 and then moved here and haven't trained in two years. I did the trial class to try it out. Everyone was friendly and the professor was very nice. No pressure the whole time, just let me learn. I ended up signing up and have been training for ~ 1.5 months. The environment is really fun and we train hard. The professor is very knowledgeable and give me specific feedback during and after class. I am very happy here and encourage anyone looking to train to try it out.
The atmosphere is great, the people are passionate and speak from the heart. They leave ego at the door and are far from arrogant, a great spot for people to try new things and work on themselves for the better.
This place refuses to be transparent about pricing unless you come in to hear the sales pitch. They won't respond to emails and verbally told me over the phone that I "wont understand the value without seeing what they offer". No thanks!
My son has been attending SIA since last September. He is getting stronger and stronger and using his techniques in real life. I can see him being more confident. My whole purpose of having him learning Jiu Jitsu was self defense and getting confidence in himself. He has improved a lot! He enjoys each class! Also, the professors are very good with kids! I highly recommend it :
Professor Henrique is knowledgeable, experienced, and engaging. He has the rare ability to connect with and motivate each student. My son is more disciplined in school as a result of his participation in the SIA class. Today, my son told me that he can't wait to be a professor one day because of the impact that Professor Henrique has had on him.
