“as a brand new beginner looking to explore what BJJ is like, the staff made me feel welcome in my first class and made sure I was prepared with an orientation first. They were also professional with the follow up before and after. Highly recommend to any beginners like myself!”
“If you are looking for first class martial arts instruction combined with excellent customer service and professionalism from the staff Easton Arvada is a great choice. The GM, Jeff Ake, has been my co-worker, training partner, and friend for years so I've been able to see first hand his dedication and commitment to the art of jiu jitsu and the growth of his own skill but more importantly his students.”
“What an incredible gym! After moving to the area from out of state, the entire staff was welcoming and supportive. JT, Omar, Shane, Wes and all the other coaches and staff are friendly, knowledgeable, talented and all around great people. Whether it’s your first time on the mats, or you’re a seasoned competitor, Easton is a top tier gym that lives up to its reputation!”
“ALL THE STARS! I joined Easton Arvada in July 2020 and have been so happy with my decision. This is my first ever attempt at martial arts so honestly I had no clue what to expect and I wanted to try a class seeing as this location is pretty close to my home. The coaches treat everyone with respect and dignity are so just so cool and easy going.”
