I've been going for a month just doing the fundamentals class, first time doing any kind of martial arts.

The building smells great and is always very clean. The Coaches are great at instructing and the community is amazing! They don't charge for belt testing like other schools I've gone to do. Overall an amazing experience and I plan on being a member for a long time to come!

I have never experienced the immediate “welcoming” feeling until I joined URSA. I was treated more than just a valued member of not only a team but more like a family member. All the instructions have been directed to enrich my journey in BJJ and they have made every attempt to help me along with my goals. I gotta say I have never felt like I was just a “member” but more like a personal friend. As a older student (48yrs) I had to learn I am not 20 anymore and Professor Kris made it possible. If you are willing to reach out and start an amazing never ending journey that pushes you physically and mentally this is the place.
