Good coaching matters, but so does the environment. That’s what keeps people training here.
Garrett is hands down one of the best instructors I’ve ever trained with. I’m over 50 and he is great at helping me adjust to things my old body just won’t do. Tess is also a great instructor, ladies… you need to be learning from her. I learned more in 6 months training with these to than I had in 3 years. Highly recommended!

I’ve personally trained with both Garrett and Tess and can attest that they’re both high level grapplers. If you guys are looking for high level jiujitsu and good vibes then this will be the place for you. These guys are all about positive vibes and high level training. Their track record with the past competitions speak for themselves. Also if you guys get a chance check out their clothing brand Bigdawgfightwear, make one of the best rash guards I’ve seen on the market.
