It was with great trepidation that I approached Winchester Jiu Jitzu. Mind you, I had heard nothing…read morebut great things...but personally I hadn't trained hard in anything for several years and had never taken any martial art. I walked into my first class like a total creep mouse, scared to death that it would be full of high level practitioners with tons of ego who would scoff at my ineptitude. Yeah, it was literally nothing like that. From the moment I walked in, everyone there made me feel incredibly welcome. Yes, there are a ton of high level folks (along with newbies of course), but they are enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge with you. The instructors are fantastic teachers, as well as genuinely kind, encouraging people. I am now completely addicted and feel as if my week is not quite complete unless I've had at least three BJJ classes (preferably more) and two HMT classes. I've also dragged my son into it, and it's the first extra curricular activity in his life he's never complained about. Highly recommend this school.

I wanted to update my review of Tiger Den. It's been 1 1/2 years since my son started. My complaint…read morethat Tiger Den can be pricey remains, I also suspect that graduating to higher belts is a bit accelerated more than it should. However, having taken martial arts a number of years ago I know quality instruction when I see it. The quality of instruction at the Winchester Tiger Den is impeccable, 5+ stars in that reguard. In my book that's what really matters. Great for kids.

There are 2 classes for adults every week (Monday and Friday), which my wife attends only Friday. She comes home exhausted but pleased with the effort she put into the class and all that she has learned. When you go to Tiger Den you become part of a family. Both my wife and daughter have made solid friendships as a result. Our daughter's discipline, confidence and respect has improved dramatically since we started going. There is a gym parents can use while there kids take classes. They offer an after school program where they pick up your child from school and help with homework. The summer camps are a lot of fun for the kids as they go on a field trip every day. Yes, it can be pricey but the benefits you're child will get from the experience are rewarding. In other words, money well spent.

From the time we entered we just immediately felt welcome and like we belonged. Master Adam immediately came over and introduced himself to our daughter and started explaining the class process. It also helped that our daughter had friends in the class so there was no need for shyness, which wouldn't have been an issue anyway thanks to the enthusiasm and personality of her instructor, Master Brandon. He made the class fun and engaging. He is fantastic with the kids! By that evening when we went home, our daughter already wanted to go back so next thing I know we are signing her up for three classes a week as well as summer camp. And everyday since then, she comes home from camp tired but eager to go back. And talking non-stop about when she will earn her belts. Seriously, check them out. You won't regret it. I am completely new to martial arts so have a lot of questions. All were answered easily. I cannot stress enough how WELCOMING the energy is there. YOu truly feel like part of the family and like they really want ot get to know your kid and help them succeed. I can't wait to watch her progress!
