I've been doing jiu jitsu for 4 years and have trained at gyms all over North America and I think Nova Mente is one of the best gyms out there. Easily one of my favorite gyms I've been a member of. Everyone at Nova has been so kind and welcoming and the instruction is top notch. They are receptive to ideas and feedback and you can tell they care about their members. They do a great job of making sure members and visitors feel comfortable and safe. I'd recommend it to anyone, beginners and seasoned practitioners alike.

Nova Mente is not my home gym, but I am grateful to be a part of their weekly Brunch Club for small grapplers under 175lb. This place is filled with people I consider to be "good souls," who are patient and kind - but simultaneously bad ass. These people know their technique, and they can adapt their instruction for any body type and every goal, no matter what level you are. I highly recommend their Sunday 11:30 class, open to ALL gym affiliations.

I’ve been involved in BJJ & MMA since 2006, and Nova Mente has been one my favorite places to train. I started attending classes in late 2024 and have really enjoyed the vibes and energy. Friends , Families, Kids , Fighters - However you identify and no matter what your goals Troy and his team will help you get where you want to be!
