It's my third week at Artemis BJJ in Temecula--about seven mat hours in--and I'm already confident…read morein making an accurate review. I'm quite a few years over 50, and this is my fourth academy attempt in the last ten years. By happenstance, I saw their recent month-to-month Facebook promotion and jumped on it, especially when I found out we could wear any gi we wanted. The culture here is the right fit for me. The other academies I tried just were not the right fit, but Artemis feels different. The academy culture is amazing, and it is obvious that it is driven from the top down. The environment is fun, relaxed, professional, and welcoming--without losing the seriousness and discipline needed to actually learn. What also stands out is how inclusive the academy feels. That seems to be the culture of the students Artemis attracts: respectful, welcoming, and supportive of people from all different backgrounds and experience levels. If you want to learn BJJ in a fun and relaxed but professional environment, this is your place. Even if you are a grappling arts beginner later in life, Artemis is the perfect instructional environment. It really is a great fit for almost anyone. The techniques are taught in such a clear and practical way that you start picking them up quickly, and each week's lessons seem to review, reinforce, and build upon what was taught before. Another major plus is that the grappling sessions at the end of class are much more practical for my goals because students start from the standing position. Other academies I attended did not allow that, and for what I am looking for, that just was not practical. Artemis is perfect because you can train with different goals in mind. If you want to focus on sport BJJ and competition, you can do that. If you want to focus more on combatives and self-defense, you can approach your training that way as well. If you have a youth wrestling background, this is your place. Professor Leavy does an exceptional job bridging the gap between wrestling and BJJ. He teaches in a way that is simple, precise, and easy to understand. He is very easy to learn from, and he is clearly a natural teacher. If you have prior combatives training, Professor Leavy is also excellent at bridging basic wrestling and combatives into BJJ in a seamless way that feels natural to the body. I take Professor Leavy's classes because they fit perfectly with my schedule, but every instructor I have seen at Artemis has been exceptional. The private lessons are absolutely worth it as well, and they are very reasonably priced for world-class instruction. The schedule at Artemis is also excellent. They offer 0600 classes, mid-morning classes, and evening classes, which makes it much easier for adults with busy lives to train consistently. I really like it here, and I hope life circumstances allow me to keep training at this academy.

We enrolled our son (9) and daughter (12) at this academy a little over a year ago and it's…read morehonestly been one of the best decisions we've ever made. The entire team has been instrumental in our children's success, both on the training mat and at competitions. My wife and I were both multi-sport athletes, but neither of us ever practiced or competed in combat sports so while we weren't sure what to expect, we both understood what effective teaching/training looked like. From the first day, it was evident that the team was focused on developing comfort and confidence in the new students. They were both immediately assigned to an experienced student who made them feel relaxed and walked them through both the drills and lessons over the next few days. They quickly went from being a little scared of joining a class full of students with varied experience levels to requesting to attend class every day of the week. Of all the extracurricular activities they had tried, this was the one that ignited their passion the most. The professor, Tom Cronin, and the entire team of coaches do an excellent job of keeping the kids engaged by balancing expectations with both fun and recognition. They have a great sense of each student and how to motivate them to excel. They also steer clear of pitfalls we were warned of by friends who have children attending other academies, specifically promotions based on attendance as opposed to merit. At this gym, the children are evaluated on their skills and ability to execute the requisite moves. This encourages them to excel instead of just casually participating. Within 9 months they had developed enough confidence to compete and we were blown away at how well they performed against the competition from around the country. Most importantly, they had a coach prepare them the week before with one on one training and he was the one who attended the competition to coach both of them through all of their matches. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly for us, the academy doesn't just teach them BJJ, it reinforces core behaviors that we expect from our children - Respect, honor, and community. At the end of the day, we are all trying to raise the best humans we can and I can say with absolute confidence, that this academy is an integral part of that process for our children. I absolutely recommend Carlson Gracie, Temecula to anyone with any interest in Brazilian Jui-Jitsu.

Next month I still recieved another charge to which I sent an email again requesting a cancellation on June 29th with no response and I was still receiving charges on my card. I received a phone call today October 11th..from a female speaker saying she was the manager. I again reiterated that I wanted my membership canceled and that I had been disputing the charges. She then stated they were going to fight the disputes and send my "unpaid balance" to collections. And that I need to fill out some form to cancel. She stated that since I'm a first responder that a collections notice would look bad for me. To which I said please just do the reasonable thing and cancel like I had initially requested months ago I don't have a contract it's just a month to month charge but She refused. Look the gym itself is pretty good quality and so are the instructors. But the way they do business is super rude and shady when it comes to management.

I don't rush into reviews--I like to really experience a place first--and this gym has exceeded my expectations in every way. I originally started training here by myself, and now both of my kids train with me. They love it, and honestly, that speaks volumes. The environment is welcoming from day one. It doesn't matter if you're a doctor, lawyer, law enforcement, a mom or dad, or someone walking in off the street--once you step on the mat, everyone is treated the same. No egos, no nonsense--just a solid group of people pushing each other to be better. The professors are top-notch. They take the time to teach real jiu-jitsu the right way, breaking things down so students of all levels can grow. It's also pretty special to train alongside high-level practitioners while still feeling like part of the team. More than anything, this gym feels like family. The friendships I've made here--brothers and sisters on the mat--are ones I never would have found outside of jiu-jitsu. If you're looking for a place with great instruction, strong values, and an even stronger community, this is it.
