New Wave is a great place to learn Jiu Jitsu. My daughter has been enrolled for a few months and her confidence and skills have been boosted exponentially! The environment is clean, very welcoming and family oriented. They have classes for all ages that include girls, boys, men and women. My daughter does a 45 minute class up to 3 times a week. It's very affordable and the owner makes sure you feel welcomed each class. We did a trial class prior to joining and we were definitely sold on all they had to offer. The professors are knowledgeable and very good with the students. I'm glad we chose New Wave.

If you're looking for a jiu jitsu or judo program for yourself or your child(ren), I would highly recommend New Wave Jiu Jitsu. The instructors are exceptional, the program is competitive, and the facility is top of the line. Check them out before signing up anywhere else. You can thank me later.

Indy's best kept secret. A wonderful atmosphere to practice BJJ for the entire family. Tahir, the owner is really encouraging, welcoming and a problem solver. Ive appreciated all of the instructors I've met and the community, students, and parents have been warm and inviting. They offer classes for ages 3-5 BJJ and 6+ BJJ classes, as well as Adult Jiu Jitsu, Youth & Adult Judo, Muay Thai, and Wrestling. I would recommend this gym to any person or family looking to improve in martial arts or wrestling, as well as improve their physical and mental health. New Wave is a supportive environment with expert instructors. As a beginner I am in the same class with advanced belts and I feel like I'm already learning so much and my family is loving it as well. Professor/Coach Gabriel (squared) has been really kind and patient with me and I feel super lucky to have found New Wave.

My 4 year old son has been attending New Wave for a little while now, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. When we first started, I wasn’t sure how he would take to jiu jitsu at such a young age, but the instructors here have been incredible. They are so patient, encouraging, and really know how to work with the kids. What I love most is how the teachers balance structure with encouragement. I can already see his confidence and coordination growing week by week. If you’re considering enrolling your child in jiu jitsu, I can’t recommend New Wave enough. The atmosphere is welcoming and the instructors are great. It’s been such a positive experience for our whole family.

I was in Carmel this last week for work and hit the no gi class Thursday night and the Saturday am class. What a great and welcoming group of people. Highly recommend checking it out if you live in the area. Great instructors and solid rolls all around with a super friendly group. Will definitely be back!
