Lakeside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

My three boys go to Lakeside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu three times a week and absolutely love it! The coaches are amazing, patient, encouraging, and really wonderful with kids. The classes are fun, structured, and such a great value for the cost!! We’ve seen so much growth in their confidence and discipline in a short period of time. My boys come home sweating from the workout. They take the class seriously and yet are smiling the whole time. Couldn’t recommend Lakeside more! The classes are tough, and kids will be grappling and engaging physically with others, so it's not for the faint of heart.

Lakeside Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a great place to train and learn jiu jitsu. The atmosphere is positive and motivating, with coaches who really care and a community that makes everyone feel welcome. It’s a great environment to learn, challenge yourself, and build friendships that go well beyond the mats.

I have been going now for 2-3 weeks and have been welcomed by all staff, students, and instructors with open arms. There are many high level grapplers ranging from BJJ black belts to collegiate wrestlers, and everywhere in-between. Paying for classes isn’t fun, but I understand it is necessary. With this said, Lakeside BJJ is one of the most affordable places in the area I found and even offers discounts for certain professions. Beginner friendly, advanced classes, great people to train and learn from, and a plethora of classes to fit any schedule. My only complaint is I didn’t start sooner! Looking forward to many more training sessions. Photo attached from my first class!

Lakeside Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has been nothing short of amazing for my family. Both of my boys attend the kids’ class, and I joined the beginners’ class myself—our experience has been excellent so far. Mom and sons bonding on another level, building self confidence for all three of us, full body work out, mental sharpness, self defense, and many more benefits. The coaches are knowledgeable, patient, and truly invested in every student’s progress, no matter the age or skill level. The kids’ program has been incredible for building discipline, confidence, and teamwork, while the adult beginners’ class has given me a supportive space to learn and grow at my own pace. Everyone is extremely welcoming and friendly and willing to help you learn and progress. The environment here feels like a second family—welcoming, positive, and motivating, and very clean! You can tell the instructors care deeply, not just about teaching Jiu Jitsu, but about creating a community. If you’re considering trying Jiu Jitsu for yourself or your children, I couldn’t recommend Lakeside Brazilian Jiu Jitsu highly enough.It’s been a life-changing experience for us! Deserves well over 5 stars!

Stepping onto the mats at Lakeside BJJ was one of the best decisions I've ever made. What started as a place to train, became a place of growth, challenge, and amazing community. The quality training here is absolutely top-notch. Every class is expertly structured, and I’ve seen my skills grow exponentially thanks to the dedicated coaching staff. This isn't just a place to drill techniques; it's an environment built for real improvement. But what truly makes it special is the incredible community. Everyone is welcoming and supportive, fostering a genuine camaraderie that pushes us to be better both on and off the mats. We celebrate together, we struggle together. It’s a true family. And of course, the amazing coaching is the core of it all. Our coaches don’t just teach top tier BJJ; they provide genuine mentorship, creating a positive, motivating atmosphere that makes coming to the gym the highlight of my day. If you’re looking for a place to train, belong, and genuinely feel at home, I can’t recommend Lakeside BJJ enough. Come join the family!
