The testimonials
Been attending this location for jiu jitsu for 3 years and couldn't recommend it enough! Plenty of availability in classes every day, enough to accommodate anyone's weekly school / work schedule. Professor Marco is an excellent and well trained teacher that cares for all of his students of all ages. He works hard to keep the lessons clear and well communicated, and the gym is always very clean and looking great. Everyone who attends regularly always remarks how good it feels once the class is over, and the students work well with one another to better their techniques and skill. A very supportive and motivated community and I couldn't recommend it enough!
Excellent, family friendly Jiu-Jitsu gym. The owner and coaches are active competitors and actively train vs just coaching which shows in the quality of coaching. This is a safe gym on all fronts, from cleanliness to grappling partners which is immensely important to me as an adult female that trains. The owner is constantly pouring back into the gym to elevate the training space and the students and he runs an honest and trustworthy business. I would highly recommend this gym to kids and adults. I have been training at this gym for 4 years.
My husband and I have been training with Coach Marco at Aguilera/Double Five for 4.5 years now. We have both really enjoyed being part of this gym, the coaching and instruction has been top notch, positive training environment, and our team mates are all very encouraging. Family oriented gym, which also offers a wonderful kids program. Definitely check them out when looking for bjj gym/family!
Great gym!! I train there as well as two of my children. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and willing to help each other grow their knowledge and skills. The atmosphere is always positive and that starts right at the top from Professor Marco who is a great teacher and mentor with patience and desire to always help his students develop and succeed. I couldn't recommend AGBJJ Double Five any more!!
Great school! Everyone is very welcoming and always willing to share techniques and drill. No egos here! A very family friendly environment and safe place to train.
Rex taught me the way of the Bushido. My Bo staff skills and numchuk skills went up and I've also improved my style. Everyone fears a roundhouse kick from me when I wear my American flag parachute pants. There was no way I could get a girl like Starla before attending these classes. My confidence level has never been higher. I can fight with a Sai better than the red ninja turtle now. Splinter is proud of me
This is a great gym with a welcoming and dedicated culture. I signed up my son for instruction , and decided to share in the pursuit shortly thereafter. We have gotten better each day, and have enjoyed pushing ourselves to get better with the new friends and gym family that we have made. Behavior and attitude at any gym is rooted, shaped, and trickled down by the head instructor. Here, you will confidently find the values i was seeking: self-discipline, respect for others, goal-setting, support, and knowledge. The secret recipe for success is just showing up!
