Reviews
I started going to this gym right when they opened… it was a fraction of what it is now. Rob does an amazing job with all of his students. All ages. He’s a salt of the earth guy. I’ve witnessed people I used to train with get their black belt in their 70s, I’ve witnessed young men get their black belts from here as well… and I can 110% say everyone has always deserved it. If you train under Rob, you’re well trained.
Fantastic facility. Clean, affordable and great instruction. I love how there are so many classes to accommodate everyone’s schedules. So many gyms only have one class time which rarely works for others. Great job Team Leverage making your gym so welcoming and accommodating to everyone.
As a mother of two young girls, we have always been encourage and welcomed here. My husband has attended for years and now our 6 year old daughter, with the 4 year old on the waiting list. They have live videos going while they are in the building and welcome spectators. I have only heard great things about the support and encouragement from other and the coaches. It's been a constant in out lives and I highly recommend Leverage to those of all genders and ages!
I was up from Tennessee visiting a friend and dropped in for a class. I was greeted with a warm welcome and professional instruction during class. I would highly recommend that if you are in the area to check out this awesome gym. Thanks Professor Ryan and the rest of the Leverage crew for welcoming me in.
Professor Rob is like no other! He knows every student, every student’s journey, and he knows how to run a Jiu Jitsu academy at its finest. His professors and coaches under him are beyond the scope of incredible at their crafts. They each hold different backgrounds in martial arts, and they share knowledge and teachings that are unmatched. Professor Ryan is the epitome of a fierce competitor, instructor, and warrior on the mat. He has developed incredible programs for the kids bjj, striking, and adult bjj and striking. He is training true mma fighters in the making. If you have any hesitation starting BJJ, hesitate no more. It doesn’t matter, young or old, heavier, or thinner, you can start your journey today. There is so much more to this academy than belts and techniques. There is comradely, friendship, encouragement, life lessons, discipline, and more!
Frequently Asked Questions
IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?
Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at Leverage Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It's the best way to experience our training environment, meet our coaches, and see if BJJ is right for you. No experience or equipment needed — comfortable athletic clothing is fine.
DO I NEED ANY EXPERIENCE TO START?
No experience necessary! Leverage Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu welcomes complete beginners. Our instructors break down every technique step by step, and our community is known for being welcoming and patient with new students. Everyone starts as a white belt, and that's exactly where you should start too.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO MY FIRST CLASS?
For your first visit, comfortable athletic clothing works perfectly — a t-shirt and shorts or athletic pants. Once you commit to training regularly, you'll want to invest in a gi (kimono). Our coaches can recommend quality options at a range of price points.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I TRAIN?
Most students at Leverage Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu train 2 to 3 times per week and see consistent progress. Showing up regularly matters far more than training intensely once in a while. We offer multiple class times throughout the week so you can find a schedule that fits your life.
DO YOU OFFER CLASSES FOR KIDS?
We primarily serve adult students. Please contact us directly to ask about availability for younger students — we're happy to point you in the right direction.
