I've been training on and off for the past 5 years at many different schools. This is my favorite. Levi is a standup guy who looks out for all of his students. He is not a blackbelt in BJJ but to me this is better. He is still working, learning and getting better and does not possess the ego that inhibits many blackbelt trainers. He wants you to improve and be comfortable first and foremost and is always willing to share his knowledge with you. Give it a try, you won't regret it.

Darkhorse is an awesome place to improve as a Jiu Jitsu practitioner! Levi will take the time to break down the movements and spend time with you one-on-one to ensure you get the best possible training. The culture and comradery at this dojo is unmatched across the valley! Give it a shot I promise you won’t regret it!

Levi, Kevin, and all of the folks of Darkhourse Jiu-Jitsu are awesome . Really nice people with a ton of knowledge to share. Just a bunch of down to earth guys that practice the sport/art, and they leave their egos at the door, which makes it feel very homey. You get a nice blend of cardio exercise and technical learning. This place is my new go-to for martial arts. I just changed gears from a traditional martial arts, where I was continually injuring my hands, knees, and feet from kicking and punching, to jiu-jitsu, which seems to be far less damaging to my body. It's a great workout for both guys and gals. Live longer, live stronger with Jiu-Jitsu!
