I've seen a drastic boost of confidence in my son and he actually enjoys going to Kickboxing now. I truly appreciate the smaller classes and the fact that they pay close attention to every child there regardless of their skill level / age. Jason (the owner) is extremely accommodating and understanding. He did an amazing job with the coaches that he selected to work at Funk! My son looks forward to hands on training every week with his coaches, Manny & Justin! They even have weekends! Give them a try, they also have adult classes, you won't be disappointed!

I received a call from David who answered all my questions and invited me to try it without strings attached. I was on the fence for a few months not sure if I wanted to try until I decided to give it a shot. Their schedule was perfect because it was 20 mins away from where I live/work and I could pop in right after work. So I said you know what I have nothing to lose. Did the trial and I am hooked ! Going 6 months this coming month. I love the place . It's clean, well kept, the trainers are wonderful and it has a very welcoming and engaging atmosphere. I think I found my sanctuary :)

I have trained around the world at who knows how many gyms over a 16 year span. I can pretty…read morequickly understand the culture of a gym. Immediate 5 stars for that, friendly, open and engaging, with rolling that was controlled with escalating intensity that remained safe. One of the few places I have been to that took time before rolling to remind people to be open to a conversation about your physical state and goals for that session. Safe, controlled, technical and open to higher intensity when both parties are up for it. Various skill levels from beginners to old school black belts. I can not sing the praises of the environment more. MORE IMPORTANTLY! The locker rooms and showers were top 5 for all the places I have trained. I feel blessed if there is one warm shower with decent water pressure and a line that is less than a 10 minute wait. This place has a locker room, with over size lockers for gear, and multiple showers with those giant square rainfall overhead shower things that feels like you are in a warm monsoon and I didn't feel guilty for taking a shower that was longer than a minute. Also soap and shampoo provided, or I stole someone's shampoo without knowing. Either way it was great.

My Personal Experience with Carlos Henrique Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu…read more This post reflects my family's personal experience after being involved with the academy for approximately six years. During that time, my son was extremely dedicated to the program and is an avid competitor in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. For over five years, he was at the academy almost every day from approximately 4:30 PM to 8:30 PM. He would arrive early to assist with coaching younger students for two classes and then stay to train for two classes himself. We invested a tremendous amount of time, travel, and resources so he could compete at tournaments around the United States. Unfortunately, during that time my son experienced what we perceived as ongoing bullying behavior from another coach/parent at the academy. From our perspective, he was ridiculed, made fun of, and demoralized in front of others, which negatively impacted his confidence and emotional well-being. We raised concerns but did not feel the situation was adequately addressed. During the COVID shutdown, families continued to be charged full tuition while the academy was closed. We were told online classes would be provided, but in our experience those were limited or did not occur as expected. The academy also holds belt promotions twice a year that include a promotion fee (approximately $150). Families considering enrollment should be aware of those additional costs. When we ultimately decided to leave the academy, the transition felt uncomfortable and we felt discouraged from training elsewhere. This post reflects our family's personal experience after six years at the academy. Other families may have different experiences, but I believe parents should have full information when deciding where their children train. We have been gone for over two years now BEST DECISION I COULD HAVE EVER MADE. My son is excelling and learning to enjoy the art and sport of JIU JITSU AND COMMUNITY.
