This is a great place to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu from a Black Belt Champion. Erik "Magrino" Alves…read moreis from Brazil. Professor Magrino is a humble down to earth master of BJJ. His teaching style is strict but easy going at the same time. The school vide is a great environment for any type of student. If you are planning on competing in tournaments, Professor Magrino has a ton of experience & has won many tournaments. He is also there to coach when you yourself is competing. This school provides classes for the young to old. As young as 4 yrs old to as old as you want. They teach Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, self-defense, & they even offer MMA class. There's several different times of class. Early morning, afternoon, or evening. This school is located right in town also. Personally, I think this is the best martial arts to start your child in. They teach your kids discipline in a fun environment. They instructors are all very patient & knowledgeable. This isn't a giant school with hundreds of students. This is more of a medium sized school. It's more family like & everyone is there to each & teach each other grow & learn. The 1 month I had the privilege & honor to train there, I've met a lot of other students & instructors. They were all so graceful, humble, & knowledgeable. The mats, facility, & restrooms are clean. There's parking out front. There's also great restaurants to grab lunch, dinner, or even a snack after training. I definitely recommend CS Jiu Jitsu school.

I had been boxing as an amateur and wanted to challenge myself to try something I knew very little about. Had a co-worker recommend this place and went in for the free 2 week trial. I knew after the 1st week this was the PLACE. The rest is history I guess. The instructors: Erik is all class and a great teacher. He's VERY passionate about the sport and wants to see you improve. He always preached that you get back what you give, to be patient and to not measure your success just by the color of the belt. Joel and Daniel were the other instructors. Daniel was very technical and Joel had a more old school approach. Each one brought something to the table to keep your game versatile. All the training partners were boys and no one was egotistical. All around great people, teachers and family men. I gained a lot from this place and look forward to one day going back.

They meet the kids exactly where they are, keep things fun, and still teach real technique at a level they can understand. We've already noticed him building confidence, listening better, and learning valuable skills like focus, respect, and perseverance--not just physical moves. It feels like they're teaching life skills as much as Jiu Jitsu, and that means a lot to us. Highly recommend for any parent looking for a positive, age-appropriate martial arts environment!
