It was with great trepidation that I approached Winchester Jiu Jitzu. Mind you, I had heard nothing but great things… but personally I hadn’t trained hard in anything for several years and had never taken any martial art. I walked into my first class like a total creep mouse, scared to death that it would be full of high level practitioners with tons of ego who would scoff at my ineptitude. Yeah, it was literally nothing like that. From the moment I walked in, everyone there made me feel incredibly welcome. Yes, there are a ton of high level folks(along with newbies of course), but they are enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge with you. The instructors are fantastic teachers, as well as genuinely kind, encouraging people. I am now completely addicted and feel as if my week is not quite complete unless I’ve had at least three BJJ classes(preferably more) and two HMT classes. I’ve also dragged my son into it, and it’s the first extra curricular activity in his life he’s never complained about. Highly recommend this school.

I moved to the area a few months ago and was freaking out that I wouldn’t find a good jiu jitsu gym… and boy was I wrong! The crew at Winchester Jiu Jitsu Academy is as good as it gets! They’re super nice and train hard! Come check it out!

Best place in the Shenandoah Valley for cutting edge BJJ and Muay Thai instruction. Great group of people to train with and friendly atmosphere. If you are experienced in martial arts or looking to try something new, I would strongly recommend Winchester Jiu Jitsu.

I moved to Winchester about a year ago and stumbled upon this AMAZING place to train. I love it here. Everyone who trains here is incredibly friendly. It’s like a family. The instructors are so knowledgable and you can tell that they love to share their passion with others. Its a great environment for kids and adults alike. I can’t recommend this place enough!
