Our boys are confident, strong, and are excellent listeners and we attribute much of that to the education they've received at Gracie Barra. Keep at it guys!

I always thought that training BJJ would be intimidating or impossible to start. I'm happy to report that I was wrong! The instructors/teammates at Legion create an awesome learning environment. Professor Sean is an excellent instructor and a world champion. I think one of the best things is that they have something to offer for every different type of attendee. I joined to test myself and to get in shape. There are others who aspire to be at the highest levels of competition. There are others who are aspiring/ or current professional MMA fighters. There are people of all backgrounds and skill levels. The cool thing is that we all end up working together and learning from each other. Being in the presence of dedicated BJJ and MMA professionals is very inspiring. The discipline required for learning BJJ is something I've been able to apply to my personal and professional life.
