It’s been such a positive experience for my kids—one of them has really come a long way with their DP and AXT skills, while the other is gaining so much confidence. On top of that, I’ve been managing my weight better, too! I’m just thrilled that we found this amazing place! Coach Nolan and Coach Kon are the best, and everyone here is so friendly and supportive. If you’re thinking about joining, just go for it! You’ll absolutely love it and won’t regret a thing! Oh, and the prices are great, too!

This place is amazing. Coach Kon and Coach Nolan are extremely professional. Once you start practicing martial arts, you don't want to stop. It's really a great workout for your body and mind. CoBLAD2025-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A professional, friendly, and experienced team. They are always happy to welcome you and will do their best to help you. A lot of attention is given not only to physical well-being but also to inner and mental well-being. Children are taught discipline, how to protect themselves from bullying, and how to handle other dangerous life situations. Both children and adults have a lot of fun and positive experiences during training, as well as improved health. I am very happy that my family is part of this wonderful community. I highly recommend it to everyone. I also want to add that if you or your children have any questions or difficulties, feel free to reach out to Coach Nolan and Coach Kon.

Our son has been training in kickboxing and jujitsu for roughly 8 months and has come so far in skill, discipline, and understanding his body. The coaches are thoughtful, attentive, and know when to be serious and when to have some fun. The facility is large, incredibly clean and very family friendly. We got lucky stumbling upon this place and are so happy we did. All in all, great community, wonderful coaches, incredible skills in teaching and lots of fun!
All Union Martial Arts Jiu-Jitsu classes are led by an expert coach that will guide and motivate you every time you train. Our coaches make sure that you are getting an incredible workout, but that you’re also furthering your knowledge of Jiu-Jitsu techniques, principles, and strategies.
We have developed our own unique and structured curriculum that progresses systematically. It starts with fundamental techniques and concepts and gradually introduces more advanced techniques as students develop their skills. The curriculum covers all the various aspects of Jiu-Jitsu, including self-defense, positions, submissions, escapes, and transitions. In addition, we are strong believers in the constraints-led approach to coaching Jiu-Jitsu, which can often enhance and speed up the learning process for our students.
We constantly strive to create a friendly, supportive, professional and inclusive environment. Students of all levels and backgrounds are welcomed, and mutual respect among training partners is expected, creating a positive atmosphere conducive to learning and growth.
