Jiu-Jitsu at this academy helps practitioners develop mental fortitude, learn problem-solving skills, and build self-confidence. The coaches create an environment where students of all levels can thrive.The academy truly embodies the spirit of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu – teaching not just martial arts techniques, but life skills of patience, humility, and perseverance. It’s not just a place to train, but a community that helps you become the best version of yourself. All 3 of my kids as well as my husband have trained here and we highly recommend it to everyone!”

“An excellent place to go to as a beginner. Deven is a very welcoming and encouraging instructor who knows how to work with everyone where they are at. As a beginner, it can feel like everything is moving at the speed of light, but the progressions we work through logically build upon each other and Deven breaks them down very clearly and explains everything thoroughly, which makes it easier to digest. The other members are also very welcoming and encouraging. There is no ego involved and it feels like a community. We are incredibly lucky to have such a high quality academy situated in Ardrossan.”

“My son really enjoys the classes and coaches. We homeschool and we love the fact we can attend a weekday class during the day!!! Coach Deven is great with the kids. I’d fully welcome him being a bit stricter with our homeschool kiddos as he is in his evening classes. We will certainly be attending more classes should they offer this option for homeschool programs.”
