Ataraxis Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Self Defense, LLC

My son has been going to Ataraxis for over a year, and my daughter joined not too long after. A great place for them to learn, work hard, and be a part of a wonderful community. Owners Coach Randy and Coach Laura, as well as the rest of the instructors are great. I couldn't ask for better people to teach my children self-defense and safety.

Training with Randy and Laura is nothing but a win. Randy and Laura are both thoughtful, encouraging teachers and they have created a nurturing environment from which you will learn to love the great art of jiujitsu. Doesnt hurt that they are both super cool people inside and outside of the gym.

This is the best BJJ school in the area. Coach Randy and Laura are a husband and wife black belt team. They and their teaching staff are talented and are great at explaining the sport to students. They offer an array of classes with something for all ages or skill levels. Their kids classes are amazing, they really take the time to teach the kids. Randy and Laura are very patient. It’s a legit martial art school so they build discipline as well as technique. The teaching staff is homegrown so they do recognize and develop talent. All the instructors are excellent at what they do. They are very patient, friendly, and welcoming. The facility is very clean, they recently did renovations, so they have new clean mats to train on, cleanliness is something they take very seriously. All in all I can’t recommend this place enough. Whether your new in town, new to the sport, or looking to get back into the sport after a break, you need to give this place a shot.

I've been training with Randy and Laura for over 7 years. This is the best BJJ school I've been to and I look forward to every class I attend. They both have a vast knowledge of jiu jitsu and provide great instruction of the techniques. The facility itself is always spotless and well-maintained, which makes training even more enjoyable. The thing I like most about Ataraxis is the culture of respect, kindness, and inclusiveness. It feels like everyone at the gym is friends with each other, and many of them have become friends over the years. I definitely recommend joining if you want to learn to defend yourself, if you want to find a good way to exercise that works out your body and mind, or if you are looking to meet people.

I cannot recommend Ataraxis highly enough. I’m 44 years old and new to jujitsu. I was a bit intimated when I first started having never done jujitsu before. The nerves quickly dissipated as the coaches and members made me feel extremely welcome. The owners Randy and Laura have built a phenomenal community of people. I now try to attend class everyday not only for the great coaching but to interact with the people who I have met. I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars.
