Professor Dias and Coach João allowed me to train there while I was in town and it was an excellent experience. They are very passionate about molding excellent bjj practioners through intense drilling and rolling. The whole team there is very welcoming, and I really enhanced my game in the four days I trained there. They will push you past your limits and get you in great shape. I highly recommend this gym.

Visiting town and stopped in to a competition training class. They worked me out hard and gave me an awesome, and grueling, training session. Everyone was friendly and welcoming even though they were getting ready for the worlds competition and megaton personally shared some time with me, very humble and very confidence inspiring. Great rolls with great people. Highly recommend!

They canceled the youth class unexpectedly. I have been fighting for two months to get back my $150 for the month of classes my son did not get. Neither Megaton nor the billing service Member Solutions have responded to my repeated attempts to resolve the issue. Even before this, they would regularly cancel individual classes but never pro-rate the monthly cost. Do not recommend this place at all!
