This gym has a lot of potential, but ownership is disappointing. Communication from the owner is…read morepoor, instructors and staff are often not paid on time, and concerns are frequently dismissed. The facility needs serious maintenance--several issues feel unsafe and have gone unaddressed. Overall, it seems profits are prioritized over staff well-being and student safety. Proceed with caution.

I moved to Washington State in January of 2023 from Los Angeles Ca and I was itching to find a new…read moreplace to train and hopefully call my home. I've been training for a lil over 7 years now and I've been around a few jiu jitsu academies. I'm very fortunate to have trained under schools that nourish a positive environment and promote growth both on the individual level and of course on the jiu jitsu level. I am very confident and happy to say that I've found that nourishing environment here at Legend Jiu Jitsu of Tacoma (an affiliate of Atos). If you are familiar with top bjj schools then you already should be familiar with the name Atos, as they've produced top ranked world champions. Prof Noa and Prof Vic are two of the most fundamentally sound and technical jiu jitsu black belts that I've ever experienced. You can tell that their style is suitable for everyone and if you are looking to grow your jiu jitsu game or are curious to see what it is all about, these two gentlemen would be the perfect teachers to start you on your journey. Coach Ben, (may look intimidating when you see him) but he is genuinely one of the nicest humans I have ever met. He is also very fundamentally sound and he teaches the morning classes on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. He is a sponge that is capable of absorbing all of what Prof Noa teaches and he is able to re-teach and demonstrate those sound techniques in the morning class. I should say that I am currently a purple belt, and I am confident my jiu jitsu journey and practice will grow exponentially from training here. In addition to a very clean and well groomed facility, all of the students at this academy whether they are white belts to black belts are ego-less and that is what you want in a jiu jitsu school.

Through a recommendation from a family friend, we decided to check Matrix out. Right from the start, coach Leo embraced us as family and really worked hard with our son. It made a world of difference. Normally, our son really couldn't care less if we took him to an activity or not. Now, it's a daily conversation "are we going today, are we going????". I highly recommend everyone coming down to take a class or two. It's super affordable and they offer packages. Classes offered are 4-7yo, 8-teen, and adult classes. Definitely check it out.

I love how my five year old is pushed in his discipline and understanding while very clearly having fun along the way. Every single coach is incredible.

All of the upper belts are extremely helpful and no one holds an intimidating machismo attitude. Everyone should try jiujitsu and this is the place to do it!

I'm a little nervous with contact sports and want my kid to be safe. So it was important to find a gym that had the knowledge and experience to teach my child the right way. When we walked into the Hammerhead Mixed Martial Arts gym, there were many members training, some in gi's and some in plain workout clothes, but everyone was engaged and the atmosphere seemed relaxed and friendly. Joey, the owner and head coach was able not only to answer all my questions but also educate me and gave me advice for what to look out for in a mixed martial arts place. He didn't seemed concerned for me or to sign up with him but rather to sign up with a martial arts gym that can do more harm than good. We got a seven day free trail and my son was able to try out every class Joey teaches. Long story short, we signed up. We felt part of the team from day one and everyone is helpful and patient with my son. I learned later how much experience in various contact sports the trainers have and how well they apply their techniques to teaching. I am very confident that my son gets the right training, support and is in a safe environment with the best trainers. He is excited about his progress in his training and enjoys being at Hammerhead Mixed Martial Arts. Definitely recommend it!
