With a little over a month training at Guerrilla I am hooked. It is a great place to train. Matt Darcy, the head instructor, has a wealth of knowledge. He is very patient with beginners and offers alternative ways of doing different drills if you have injuries which helps me out a lot. The staff is very helpful as is the culture with the students. I have found myself learning a lot from others with more experience. They offer their knowledge willingly so that you can improve. I don't see anyone with egos trying to prove something. Everyone is very measured. You will be sore, you will sweat, you will build confidence with every class you attend. If you're looking for something challenging, that's also a great workout and helps make you a humble person look no further.

One of the big things that I think distinguishes Guerrilla from a number of other Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academies in the area is how accommodating they are in terms of the range of programs that they offer. Whether you're seeking a family-centric environment (inclusive of young children), looking to learn a practical form of self defense, compete more seriously in the sport, or just generally stay in shape and have fun, Guerrilla will help. Matt Darcy, who is our head instructor, is a father, a coach, and a very seasoned competitor with a deep understanding of combat sports. Whatever your goals might be, Matt and his staff can help you achieve them on your terms. I started training at the age of 38. Now, at 43 years of age, I am still here, injury free, and better off in almost everything that I do these days for having walked into his academy (thanks Matt!). It's also worth mentioning that one-on-one lessons are available with a number of senior practitioners there. Shout out to Chris Fletcher who is a Guerrilla blackbelt available for private lessons! Chris has been a phenomenal guide and has managed to make things that seemed impossible to me before, possible now, and in some cases, easy. Guerrilla is much more than an academy. It's a wonderful community that is a reflection of the leadership there. It's a family.

Great place to train for all ages. Especially for kids. Every instructor is great. The environment is very welcoming as well. If you are an adult that wants to train Jiu Jitsu, definitely give it a free trial. You will meet some great people.

We moved here from San Diego and we were looking for a place to have my son train JiuJitsu. I called around and a friend of mine recommended this place. My son tried it out for the first time for free. He immediately loves it and now a proud Grey belt. He love this place and so are we. Great place and amazing atmosphere with plenty of space. We’ve been with this academy for almost 2 years now and will continue to stay. I highly recommend this place.
