What Our Members and Families Are Saying
Fundamental Jiujitsu is a phenomenal place for kids to learn jiujitsu. My daughter had been training in another gym and I moved her to Fundamental. She loves it here and has really improved since the switch. My son was always afraid to try martial arts in general, but the first day I brought him in to watch the kid's class, he was immediately interested in trying it. Joe and his team create an environment that everyone can learn in: Todd, Glenside
Fundamental jiu-jitsu is a gem of a gym! Joe is really passionate about the gentle art and transmitting his knowledge to us students to make us better grapplers. I really love the games-based format here; it makes for really fun sessions, and I feel that the training time is optimized. Our other instructors are just as passionate as Joe and each one brings a unique angle from which to approach the art. The atmosphere is welcoming and the community is invested getting better together. We have a great kids program, and the adult class has practitioners from a wide range of age groups, so there is something for everyone here at FJJ: Sean, Philadelphia
This is a great, community-oriented, and non-competitive place to learn jiu jitsu. I am an adult female beginner and I feel comfortable and safe here. Highly recommend: Sara, Flourtown
