From the moment we walked in, everyone was incredibly welcoming--from the staff to the kids. The class sizes were just right, and the coaches were not only highly skilled but also patient, encouraging, and clearly passionate about helping the kids grow.

A special thank you to Rafael Formiga & Vitoria Assis for the encouragement and knowledge!

A champion on the mat gets their hand raised, a champion off the mats raises other's hands.

I was vacationing in the area for the holiday season. I reached out via instagram to inquire about…read moredropping in. I got messaged to call, I spoke with professor Ryan. I was able to take care of my scheduling and payment online prior to getting to the class. Upon arrival I was greeted by Steve and filled out a waiver. Then I got to chit-chat with professor Ryan a bit before class. The class was 2 hours with a warm up, self defense, Jiu jitsu technique and positional sparring. Really great class, as they say "the devil is in the details", professor Ryan had the "invisible Jiu jitsu" tips and concepts to help out the whole class. He was able to help me with my stack passing! As a traveling brown belt, it's always nice to experience other academies. The practitioners at Kama Jiu-Jitsu were tough and technical, but also very welcoming and friendly. I hope to return. Thank you for the hospitality and rolls!

It was a great open mat, I wish I was able to stay longer. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, the level of Jiu jitsu is very high at this academy. Got beat up a bunch and enjoyed the learning experiences. Thank you to Michael for beating me up but also taking the time to teach me as well - inside camping lesson both during the round and after. There aren't many academies that have a master walking around and mingling with their students. I was so lucky to be able to talk with master Machado and take a pic with him. He is a true legend and is such an ambassador as a master of Jiu jitsu. Thank you for the hospitality and rolls!

I dropped in on a 5:45 am class, I reached out a day or so prior and heard back very quickly.

I dont know too much about this place. A friend invited my 8 year old son to a free open mat…read moreoutside of Dallas. It was class oriented for kids in all weight groups at 5:30pm. The outside only says "Jiu Jitsu" so unless you come up to the door and read some details, you couldnt possibly see that its Roanoke BJJ. And as a Yelper the biz wasnt even in there so it was more difficult to research. We saw our friends go in from the parking lot so we followed in soon after. There were about 30 kids separated into three groups based by weight and size. There were two coaches, one of which was taking the lead in instruction so he was probably the Professor. We werent acknowledged because the session was underway. Our friend directed us where to stand so that was helpful. And they were off rolling. They were put in positions of all different scenarios with rotating partners. It was clear that this was geared towards competition training. Most of the students were advanced(not necessarily by belt or stripe level), aggressive, and proficiently using moves and submissions. The professor was stern, quick, and efficient with teaching, talking, and getting the students to progress through class. It was the way I wish all BJJ classes are run. This Professor is dedicated and developing exceptional BJJ students around the Dallas Fort Worth area! By the time we left there were kids still sparing and it was 7:30pm. Was told it usually goes till about 8pm!! 2 1/2 hours of competition training!! Just f'n amazing!!
