I have practiced at several BJJ centers. There is something special about Scott and his gym. To me,…read morethere are two fundamentals for choosing a gym. First, how good are the instructors at teaching? Owning a black belt is irrelevant to whether you can explain moves effectively, showcase moves effectively, and develop a training regimen that matches individuals and their unique personalities and skill sets. On this front, Scott and his team are exceptional. Good communicators. Patient. And they possess that rare ability to deconstruct moves into simple to follow sequences. Second, what is the culture of the gym? You can have an exceptional set of teachers but the culture could be unhealthy. A gym can be too competitive, with men and women trying to prove their mettle and worth by berating each other and hazing newbies. A gym's culture can show shades of misogyny, racism, ageism, and degrade students who lack sufficient strength, stamina, speed, agility, and general wit and ease. On this front, I have never been to a gym with a healthier, friendlier culture than Centreville BJJ. It starts with Scott and extends to all of his staff. I have seen how they interact with superior athletes, non-athletic teams, men, women, boys, and girls. The staff here makes an effort to be open, receptive and friendly while providing the serious discipline and training that is desired. To go one step further, Scott worked with my wife to create a one day workshop for our teenage daughters and their friends on self-defense. It was fun. It was serious. It was thoughtful. And the girls learned several moves to protect themselves that are still in their arsenal today. I give my strongest recommendation.

I once knew nothing about the many different forms of martial arts and I honestly have nothing to compare Fairfax Jiu Jitsu to, but I strongly believe it is the people who can make or break any kind of establishment. Needless to say, it is everyone here, from Dave (one of the managers) to the students in the [I'm not telling you what I took!] class, that make this place amazing. Classes will challenge you, you will learn, and you'll enjoy it all. I think I found my 2nd family. Try it out, let them know you saw my review, and that you're ready for some ass kickery!

It makes the whole experience more worthy. Instructors: What makes this a good place to go are the Masters (instructors). They rotate the Masters who are giving instructions, routines, and exercise. Son's experience: He always looks forward going to TKD. His biggest motivation is the tape that goes on his belt to prove he did well with whichever routine was given. He gets so proud. His goal is to get a black belt - hah... we will see about that. Price - I'm not sure about the cost, but I felt the people there were honest and with my son's experience so far - it's well worth it. Thanks Taekwondo in Action!

You're definitely going to find something that works for you! The gym is a warehouse with plenty of parking around it.

The owner, Sean, is very kind and helps walk you through all of the options that you have for classes. You can tell he really cares about all of his students and is easy to talk to. Additionally, everyone else in the gym is extremely welcoming and friendly. They make sure that you feel like you are part of a team even if it's your first class. If you are looking to switch gyms or try something new, this is the best place to try it!

I'm very pleased to see that he finally was able to open his own independent dojo to celebrate traditional Okinawan Uechi Ryu Karate, as well as the rich cultures that Okinawa brings. The Cultural Center has many artifacts in a museum style in a side room. There's also many people from the community like the DC Okinawan Kai who utilizes the space. It is a safe and welcoming space for not just Okinawan people, but those interested in learning more about the culture and tradition. This spacious dojo has two kicking/punching bags ready for training, many talented instructors, and classes for children and adult alike! I am excited for what's to come for this OKCC! I hope new students can find their new karate home like it's been for me throughout the years!

During that time, he hosted some of the Okinawan masters at his dojo, which is how we met. Those were great classes, and when it was time for me to find a new dojo, I joined Master Folta at his new location. It's a fine space, and the training there is authentic and excellent. Master Folta is kind and genuine, while also encouraging everyone to reach for the highest standards. His careful eye has improved my karate in many ways, large and small. I was careful in my choice of schools, and picked the best one in the area. I've seen his students, both kids and adults, get better over time and stay with the program. If you're serious about learning karate that works, this is the place I recommend. There is a lot to learn, and this is the real deal.
