Had a chance to take a class while I was up for work. Professor Brandon was extremely welcoming to an outsider from another school. Extremely knowledgeable and amazing class! Will absolutely come back again!
Professor Brandon is in a class by himself. He is one of the best there is. My son loves the classes and as a parent I cannot be happier with watching my child work hard, focus and have fun. I highly recommend Core Academy BJJ to anyone considering a program.
Professor Brandon has been an influential teacher and positive influence to my teenage son (now 14) over the past 6 years or so, and he finally convinced me to start BJJ at Core Academy last month. It’s a great challenge at 57 years old to enter into such a physically and mentally demanding challenge but Professor Brandon has the skill, confidence, clarity and passion to make it all incredibly rewarding. He embraces all skill and experience levels equally and genuinely instills a sense of community and commitment for all. Come check Core Academy out - you won’t regret it!
