learn, grow, thrive, and become the best version of myself on and off the mat

What truly sets Kola Ajose Brazilian Jiu Jitsu apart from other academies is the exceptional coaching and dedication provided by Coach Kola. Not only is Coach Kola a master of the art of Jiu Jitsu, his ability to inspire and motivate goes far beyond the lessons, moves, and techniques shared on the mat. Oftentimes training leaves me feeling mentally empowered, ready to tackle challenges life throws my way.

One of the remarkable aspects of the academy is Coach Kola’s commitment to creating a space where everyone feels like a valued member of the community. The camaraderie and encouragement among both youth and adult members make every class and competition welcoming and supportive.  

As a woman and a mom, finding an academy where I feel respected and empowered has been truly transformative. While learning Jiu Jitsu, I’ve developed self-defense skills, confidence, and resilience that have seeped into other aspects of my life.

I appreciate the pace and technicality of all the training, how I’m learning the art of Jiu Jitsu, and how to own and enjoy every step of my journey. For me, Kola Ajose Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is more than a place to train—it’s a place to learn, grow, thrive, and become the best version of myself on and off the mat.
