Visited the week of Jan. 13th 2026. Environment was very welcoming, clean and spacious with good size classes and mat. Each training partner I worked with was nice and also a pleasure to train and roll with. I attended multiple classes with Eli Knight as the instructor and had a great time learning details on some things I had trained previously as well as many brand new techniques. I recommend anyone of any level to check out this gym and the classes there. Since I only attended Eli's gi and no gi classes I most definitely recommend those for sure and by working with the other skilled folks in the classes I attended, I'm sure the other classes are great as well. Definitely check this place out!

I started training here about 5 months ago with no prior experience and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Everyone from other white belts all the way up to black belt have been incredibly helpful and welcoming. The instructors are knowledgeable and always willing to answer questions and are very hands on with showing you new things. Couldn’t recommend this more for people just starting out and experienced practitioners alike.

Just popped in one day when I was visiting from Charleston. Turns out this place is SUPER high-level. Great facility, great coaches and team members and high-tech jiu jitsu. Definitely go train here, I can't wait to return next time I'm in town❤️

I was visiting Charlotte for the week & was looking for a place to train while I was in town. Several people I know had recommended this academy. I was able to train several days (go & no-gi). Great experience overall. Fantastic instruction. Engaging class pace & drills. Good rolls. But best of all was the gym culture. Great group of diverse people willing to learn and help.

I dropped in for a 645am class while visiting Charlotte for work. Coach Declan ran a great class and the gym is really nice. Definitely will go again.
