This was not our first school and the school we came from was one of the best in the country, in a different state. We've been with them for 6 years so it's not our first rodeo. Do not waste your money, coaches are not coaching. One wears dirty " white" Gi without a rush guard! Disgusting! No respect for mat, people are allowed to sit on it with their shoes on.

Mark employs a full time coach with world class accolades backed by a friendly environment where everyone feels like they are part of a community and the community strives to get better. I have trained at dozens of Jiu Jitsu gyms in my 8 years of experience. Without a doubt this was my favorite gym that I got to call home on the road and can't wait to come back, visit, and roll. If you're looking for self defense, exercise, competition community, sense of belonging... stop looking. When I got to the NB area... I already did the looking for you by trying other gyms... just go here you won't regret it.

Brazilian jiu jitsu is a martial art that teaches ground fighting techniques and is a great way to get and stay fit. Professor Dalua and the other instructors at NBTC really know how to teach, and they are more than willing to answer questions. They have created a really great environment at NBTC where everyone from the newest student to the seasoned competitor can enjoy classes. NBTC offers classes for kids as young as four, as well as a women's only class, in addition to the regular evening and day classes. I encourage those interested to come by and try it out for yourself!

I trained at this academy regularly, competed with the team, and for most of my membership…read moreconsidered the gym and its members an important part of my life. I learned a great deal, developed meaningful friendships, and previously had a positive relationship with the coaches. As a veteran, Jiu-Jitsu had become more than a recreational activity for me. It provided structure, community, purpose, and a constructive way to manage the transition out of military service. This context made the end of my membership particularly significant for me. Management developed concerns about my communication style, but I was not spoken to directly or informed that my membership was at risk. I later learned that the coach's wife had been discussing her concerns about me with one of my close friends for approximately one month. My friend repeatedly stated that she believed I was joking rather than intending disrespect and offered to speak with me about it. She was told that the coaches would handle the matter. No coach raised these concerns with me directly. And because my personality had never changed and had previously been accepted and interpreted positively, I had no reason to believe it was suddenly unacceptable and that a narrative was being built. When I later became aware that a joke in the team group chat had been interpreted as disrespectful, I sent my coach a private apology and explained that disrespect had not been my intention. I did not receive a response. This shows that once aware of issues, I was willing to adjust, apologize and communicate. It also shows that my coach and his wife are incapable of direct communication. Shortly thereafter, my membership was terminated by phone. The decision was communicated by my coach's wife. I did not receive a direct explanation from the coach who had worked with me most closely, mentored me, and had been preparing me to compete. During the call, I requested a conversation to better understand the concerns, provide my perspective, and assess whether the situation could have been addressed differently. I was informed that the decision was final and not open for discussion. I was not given a warning, a clear opportunity to correct the behavior, or a detailed explanation prior to the termination of my membership and my involvement with the team. I felt betrayed and discarded by someone I looked up to, admired and wanted to make proud. To have someone you trust not deem you worthy of even a single conversation felt like the cruelest abuse of trust. The last thing said to me during that conversation was "I hope your next gym gets your sense of humor", which was just an unnecessary insult and clearly a veiled insult driven by a personal vendetta that I was not privy to. I understand that a privately owned academy has the authority to determine membership. My concern relates to how that authority was exercised. Concerns were discussed with someone close to me over a period of weeks while I was not informed. An opportunity for direct communication was not taken, my apology was not acknowledged, and the matter was concluded without a direct conversation with the coach who had mentored me. I remain appreciative of the training and relationships I developed while I was there. However, I would not recommend this academy to students--particularly veterans or others who rely on Jiu-Jitsu for structure and community--if they prioritize transparent communication, clear expectations, and an opportunity to address concerns before membership termination. Update following the response: I understand the decision not to discuss these supposedly existent "private details" in a public forum. However, the central concern in my review is that they also declined to discuss those concerns with me privately. I was not warned that there was an alleged "pattern of conduct", my apology was not acknowledged, and my request for a direct conversation with my coach was denied. Their response does not address that communication process, which remains the basis of my review. Do better, Steven.

I let them know he's on pull ups and it was fine. They got back to me promptly with emails and got him into a trial class within a couple days. We got there and one of owners Juliana greeted us. She was super nice and friendly, explained everything and got a practice gi for my son. The other owner came and met us as well and took my son into the practice area to meet the coaches. They all were very kind and friendly. He had no problems at all. I was worried he would be too young and wouldn't be able to understand. After the class I met with coach Chris and he reassured me he did well and it would be good for him. I met with Juliana again to go over the breakdown and fees and how things work. They have a great promo right now til June 22nd. After leaving I knew we picked the right gym for my son. Everyone was friendly and they were all great with kids. Definitely recommend
