I started training jui jitsu a while back from the recommendation of a friend and wow, what can I…read moresay? I have never looked back. I was really nervous at first because of the thought of grappling with other people but my friend recommended the Maven Jiu Jitsu Academy because of the Professor James Quan and I am glad he did. Professor James comes from a teaching background that translates extremely well into his teaching style and the atmosphere that he creates at this academy which is really incomparable to anything other academy that I have ever experienced. Over the years, I have had the honor to train at several other academies around the country while traveling, including some of the most popular and well respected academies as well as many of the surrounding academies in the greater Houston area and one thing that I can say without a doubt is that this place is special. They are super friendly and welcoming of new students with no experience and that is what really made me stick to this environment for such as long time. It takes away all the anxiety that you get from starting a combat practice like this and really makes you feel at home. I have been so glad to witness my transformation through training not just in a self defense aspect but also physically, mentally and through the many friendships that I have gained. They also have a great kids program that I enrolled both of my kids in and they absolutely love it. So if you are thinking of getting into jiu jitsu or looking to join a martial art that is gentle yet effective, then look no further than Maven Jiu Jitsu Academy. They offer a flexible schedule, competitive pricing, a great beginner and family friendly atmosphere and best of all, a place that will eventually feel like a second home.

Excellent Jiu-Jitsu school with good culture. Highly recommend this, if you're interested in…read moreJiu-Jitsu and live in the North Houston area.

The facility is always clean and well-maintained, and the beautiful surroundings make it a great place to spend a summer day. There are plenty of shaded areas throughout the park, convenient concessions when you need a snack or drink, and the location is easy to get to. I also appreciate that there are lots of lifeguards on duty, which makes it feel safe for families with kids. The biggest downside is that it gets crowded very quickly, especially on weekends and holidays. While there is a good amount of shade, there still isn't enough for everyone once the crowds arrive, and you'll definitely run into a few "shade hoggers" who claim large areas early in the day. If having a shaded spot is important to you, plan to arrive early. Overall, it's a great value and a fun place for families--I just wish there was a little more room to spread out during peak times.

Tickets are only $10, and that alone, is worth the 5-star review. For less than the price of a couple coffee's or cartons of eggs, you are able to have some really cool interactions with animals. If you want to experience anything else like this, you'll have to drive an hour to the Houston Zoo, pay a lot more money for tickets, deal with crowds/parking/etc. The Learning Zoo is obviously not trying to compare itself to the Houston Zoo, but where else are you going to get to play with goats, pigs, birds, a pony, tortoises and snakes? The location is really hidden behind 1488. You drive through a residential street, and then all the way at the back, you make a couple of turns, and suddenly you're at The Learning Zoo. When you walk in, you are offered some lettuce and carrots for the animals for an additional $10, which is definitely worth it. Plus, they have some animals inside the lobby area - snakes, hedgehogs, other reptiles, etc. Then you head outside to the main part of the experience. You can walk amongst the tortoises, get "attacked" by all of the birds in their sanctuary, join the goats and pigs in their pen, and they even brought out a 14 foot snake for people to hold and take pictures with. Everyone here was incredibly nice, too. We were only there for about 45 minutes, but for $40, it was worth every penny.

We need it down to two, but ultimately Ultimate Warrior because I came highly recommended by a trusted friend, and I agreed with the methodology of its owner Jake And his staff. They are firm and nurturing, disciplined, yet still fun. Other successful places in the area wasn't a great fit as they felt more industrial and performed for appearances than what I had in mind. I ultimately chose ultimate warrior for my son, because he has fun while learning to protect himself at a very natural pace. Further, because my son is clumsy... They also work on "how to" fall effectively. After just one of these classes, my son was riding horse riding and was bucked off the rear from about 6 foot off the ground. As he fell, he automatically went into a forward fall position and saved his face and glasses from hitting the ground. Needless to say, after seeing this, I am sold that the methods taught here are effective and strategies used for learning these skills are something that kids can relate to easily. An added bonus is that Jake must have a radar that draws in good people. All the parents I've met here have been really kind and so are the students and coaches.

The potlucks and social events really show that UW wants to be part of our local community.

Not to mention, there is a supplement store where you can shop for protein, preworkout, vitamins, healthy snakcs, etc. so I thought that was pretty neat! As a powerlifter, Rise Barbell is hands down, the best place to work out. The powerlifting side just opened this summer and I cannot thank the owner Dr. Sean for providing such an amazing facility for me to train at before I competed at Raw Nationals this year. There are plenty of brand new TSS combo racks and barbells as well as new Rogue Kilo/pound plates. There's also many deadlift platforms as well as one olympic weightlifting section. Aside from that, there is a long strip of turf that separates the powerlifting section from the machines for body builders. Speaking of body builders, there is a posing room so that's another big plus! Inside this building, there is also a Physical Therapy section run by Dr. Sean. Oh yeah, did I mention there's AC too? I've visited numerous powerlifting gyms in the Houston area but none of them had AC so I appreciate how I'm not drenched in sweat just from walking into a gym. Aside from the amazing facility, the staff and trainers here are incredibly kind. I appreciate how they helped host/run fun events for members to participate in! Overall, the amount of hard work and passion that the owners and workers put into this gym speaks volumes. Honestly, I could go on and on as to why this is the best gym I've ever visited but I hope everyone gets to experience working out at Rise Barbell.

This is a nice gym. There is a lot of equipment and cardio machines. When I enter, there is always…read moresomeone who greets me. Classes. I have not done those, but would like to try those. Personal trainers. They have amazing trainers that can help you reach whatever goal you are working towards. My trainer has been so encouraging and listens/makes modifications to help support a gradual improvement in strength. Cleanliness. This is the reason for the 4 stars. There could be more attention to cleaning of equipment from staff or cleaning services in both the rise gym and barbell. The main door entering rise has been seen multiple times with handprints smudged all over and dust on equipment. I do appreciate the cleaning products and towels to clean off instruments after use, however during non peak times there are no towels available. Not sure who to let know regarding this, but will change my review once I see this area addressed.
