Went to open mat and had a blast! Very welcoming gym. Thanks for the rolls! Oss!
The coaches at the Kodokan are high level BJJ practitioners and instructors but they make everyone feel welcome regardless of ability. There is a real family feel to the place and I can honestly say that many of the people here have become my closest friends. There is room for everybody, recreational and competitive athlete alike. I've never felt intimidated or unwelcome.
Awesome little team and very technical, detail-oriented instructors. I like the fact that both instructors are smaller themselves and teach a style that relies on technique and movement rather than physical strength. Great mix of competitive and recreational students.
After trying out Bjj from other gyms, I found my gym, and it's my second home now. Kodokan members are very friendly, happy to help everyone improving their techniques. Kodokan coaches are great with their students. They pay attention to each student on their progress. I never feel being judged in any way while training at this gym. I'd recommend everyone to come and try out their trial classes. You'll know what I mean.
Instructors are knowledgable and able to modify and cue to help students with varied body types and abilities. Not a one size fits all approach. I've been going here for about 6 months and haven't run into anyone who is unreasonably aggressive or unhinged. That being said, there are some very high level players here that will help identify holes in your game. Great group of people.
