Traveling through Seattle for work so I decided to drop in at the gym. Coach Fred Borden and all the students welcomed me immediately. Everyone was polite, kind and took it easy on me even though I was just a new face in town from another academy. The gym was clean and modern inside with adequate showers and restrooms. The quality of instruction was unbelievable, Coach Fred was detailed and articulate. Class started with a quick warm up and continued with some standup work. For the main technique of the day Couch Fred taught a basic armband from closed guard but added more and more details to it so students of all levels were learning and drilling something new. All around it was a great experience. I most definitely will be going back soon.
I came out from Ohio to Seattle for work and wanted to stop by and check out a gym while I was here. I went to the submission grappling class. Absolutely loved this place. Everyone was really friendly, coaches were tentative and really took the time to explain and perfect techniques, and the overall atmosphere was really welcoming. Would highly recommend.
I joined Renzo Gracie a few weeks ago to learn BJJ (I'm brand new to martial arts), and it's been a really fantastic experience these past few weeks. The coaches - Fred and Josh - create a welcoming atmosphere for students of all levels and really care about building a community of students. They're great teachers, emphasize technique and details, and encourage students to ask lots of questions during class which I really appreciate. The class is super friendly - honestly everyone I've met is willing to help out new people and even proactively give tips on how to improve which is super cool. I forgot how to tie my belt like the first two classes and people (shoutout to Blake) were super helpful with even small stuff like that. And if it wasn't clear already, it's a ton of fun! Training environment is super clean and just a lot of fun to grapple and learn. Definitely planning on continuing training at Renzo Gracie!
While visiting Seattle from NJ, I had the honor of training at this dojo. From the moment I sent a note asking if I could join a class, to the final bow out, the facility and staff were excellent! The instructor introduced a mix of standing and ground techniques in an expert way, and the fellow students were very welcoming. And who showed up to visit and say “hi” but Rigan Machado! The fact that a bjj legend invested time to visit this dojo is a testament to special place that Josh and his team have built. I would recommend this academy to anyone, whether just starting out, or a competitive black belt. Kudos! Rob from Jersey
