Southside Jiu-jitsu is an excellent gym to train at. I personally know the instructors, they're good, professional people with years of competition & teaching experience. There are multiple black belt Jiu-jitsu instructors, black belt judo instructors, and great Muay Thai & MMA classes. The kids classes keep the children fit and engaged. The weight area saves on time, you don't need to go to another gym. The club is improving all the time, even new rainbow lights were put up in the gym 😀 I highly recommend making this your home martial arts gym.
