We have had a terrific experience at Taylor Biagi jiujitsu. My son is 13 and everyone has been so helpful to him and going out of their way to make him feel comfortable while still effectively teaching him moves. This is definitely increasing his confidence and I highly recommend this very family friendly place!

I started cross training at Taylor’s gym back in 2024 to prepare for a competition…and I was instantly hooked. In the last two years it has really been awesome to see the growth of the team and the scope of offerings expand. They definitely train adults and they also have an incredible kids program…which is producing some super strong grapplers! I recently reconnected with the gym again to cross train and find more mat time. What I am most grateful to Taylor and her team now is their flexibility and consistent motivation to stay on my journey. If you are thinking about starting jj and/or want to get your kid(s) involved, 10/10 recommend you give Taylor’s gym a go 🫶

I dropped in for a BJJ practice yesterday and was warmly welcomed immediately upon walking in. The studio was beautiful, clean and basking in sunlight. (I love a storefront gym with big windows!). The class time I attended was newly added, so we had a small turnout - but this did not at all detract from how much energy and passion was delivered through the teaching. Taylor taught movements I hadn't seen before and clearly communicated so many helpful refinements. As a strength and movement coach, I was super impressed with her attention to detail and placements with the body. I am very much looking forward to returning and meeting more of the community!

I’d like to leave a sincere and very positive review about Taylor Biagi JJ Academy. My children haven’t been attending jiu-jitsu for very long, but they already go to every class with excitement. They enjoy absolutely everything — the atmosphere, the coaches, the team, and the overall approach. The coaches are very attentive, supportive, and explain everything clearly. They always make sure the kids understand the techniques, feel confident, and develop both skill and discipline. It’s obvious that they truly care about each child’s progress. The academy has an amazing energy — there is respect, structure, and at the same time a friendly environment where kids can grow both physically and mentally. My children love every session, and we’re very happy we chose Taylor Biagi JJ Academy. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a professional approach, a strong team, and an environment where kids can grow and fall in love with the sport!

I participated in an afternoon trial class today and had a great time. The gym was bright, welcoming, and most importantly...clean. The training was well paced and easy to understand. I was welcomed by all the other students and at no time did I feel like an outsider. I will definitely be going back for more training.

Frequently Asked Questions

IS THERE A FREE TRIAL CLASS?

Absolutely. We invite all prospective students to try their first class free at Taylor Biagi 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! Taylor Biagi 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 Taylor Biagi 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?

Yes! We offer dedicated programs for children and teens at Taylor Biagi Jiu Jitsu. Our youth classes focus on discipline, respect, confidence-building, and the fundamentals of BJJ in a safe, fun environment.
