We decided to bring our daughter for BJJ with Sensei Jay. This is a family and team environment that we were looking for. There is a sense of support from everyone how attends or participates in the classes. Our son enjoyed watching his older sister and wanted to join too. We have 2 kids attending and look forward to their growth within the discipline. We both recommend Cephas BJJ Academy.

My daughter has been coming here for 2 years, she started when she was just 3 years old. She was so scared and way too sweet. She’d cry for the first couple of months - she did not want to come. Eventually this became home to her and she now loves it! Her confidence is through the roof and she now understands what she’s there to do and just does it! She is excelling! Sensei J is the best with kids and he really speaks their language. I wouldn’t want my little girl anywhere else.

We have spent the last 9 months with our son doing classes at Cephas BJJ and we enjoy every minute we get to be there. My son has grown in confidence, perseverance and respect thanks to all of the work that Sensei Jay pours into all of his students! I highly recommend anyone to bring your child here and witness there growth and development!

Heard about Cephas BJJ through our friends & really grateful we did. We enrolled our 6 year old son about 6 months ago and he’s already learned so much. He’s always so excited about going to class and loves it. Sensei is a great teacher who doesn’t let them quit & pushes them in a positive way! All the kids love him. Totally recommend!

I began my journey under sensei Jerrell 2 years ago now. I have since moved, and had the opportunity to train at multiple other gyms and experience multiple other teaching styles. He has quite a unique teaching skill, and different approach to encouraging. His students are strong, regardless of competing or not, and have so much fun. My kids absolutely loved it, and so did I. He strives to challenge his students. The facility is extremely clean as well. He has a strong family environment. One thing I am most proud of is my foundations. Everywhere I go it stands out, and people comment on it. I have Sensei Jerrell to thank for that. 1% better 🙌🏻 👊🏻
