Great place to train with friendly and knowledgeable coaches along with friendly teammates. I've trained at a few places during my jiu jitsu career and this is one of the few gyms where there is zero drama and cliques. Just come in with a good work ethic and train. Coaching and environment is informal (no need to bow, wear particular gis/colors, no need for terms like "professor" or "sir"). Each coach offers their own different teaching style with a competition mindset. If you're looking to push yourself mentally, physically, and build some long lasting relationships, this is the gym to be.

Precision Jiu-Jitsu is a great place to learn jiu jitsu as a beginner or as an advanced student looking for a new home. The high ceilings and extensive mat space makes rolling more enjoyable. Showers are available (always a plus)

This gym is excellent for learning and growing in BJJ. I go to the morning class, and it’s the best one around—a good mixture of people who come ready to learn and improve each other. It’s a spacious facility with a lot of room to roll. Coach Ryan is a dedicated instructor that helps to accelerate the development of our skills. His attention to detail is second to none. I’ve seen my skill grow, and I have become more confident as a BJJ practitioner by attending this morning's class. The morning crew is fantastic and constantly working to improve each other. It’s a great team. No other place I would rather be! I love this place!

I was able to train at this BJJ academy. I had nothing but a great time with being welcomed in by staff and the other grapplers. There was all types of talent at the gym which allows growth. I plan to go back and the next time I go back I plan to purchase some of their great gear to train in.

We love Precision! The coaches are great - so knowledgeable, and not only are they skilled themselves but they know how to communicate the information as great instructors. It’s rare to find people who are incredibly skilled in their craft, and also able to teach others effectively, but Precision has it all. Can’t say enough good things about the caliber of training there.
