It is the best place to go if you want to learn jiu jitsu

Although I’m one of the only girls that train here, I don’t get treated like one. All of the guys are cool, supportive, and don’t treat you any different - they just treat you like part of the team. Not only does the team make this a great place to learn, but Kaj Falls is the best instructor I’ve ever met. He treats everybody the same, gives it to you how it is, teaches in great detail, and only compliments you if you’re actually doing it right. This way, you feel very accomplished and know when you’re actually doing good. Martial arts may sound intimidating, but anybody can do it. I love it because it’s a sport for which you’re constantly learning, it’s super fun, and it’s a great workout. Without changing my diet, or doing anything different, I’ve lost 10 pounds since I started training. Whether you are interested in joining for your health, social life, or a challenge, I think you will find that there are more pros than cons to join! Don’t you want to be able to tell people you do martial arts? Come on by and try it - you might like it (:

Very safe place to practice BJJ...

West End Martial arts has by far surpassed my expectations. Kaj is a phenomenal instructor for both kid’s and adults. It is a very family oriented academy and parents are encouraged to participate with the kids. I love sharing such an experience with my son as well as challenging myself. Come in and see just how amazing the people and academy is. We look forward to meeting you!

I highly recommend training under Kaj. The gym has a culture of prioritizing saftey. The instructors are very knowledgeable in multiple martial arts. This gym is great for recreational and competitive training.

Excellent MMA school all round. Kaj is a great instructor in both BJJ and striking - very patient, knowledgeable, and technical! Highly recommend this school for beginners and advanced trainees alike.

Love this gym. Amazing, detailed instruction for everyone from the beginner to the advanced student. I feel like Kaj really cares about my development as an athlete and the other students are always so welcoming and supportive. As someone who had never done any kind of contact sport before the age of 30, I can confidently say that I always feel safe when training here and have learned so much. The facility is brand new and so clean! I moved away but I still come back regularly to train here (Bjj, kickboxing, and judo).

Supper, this place is where I traine.

The most technical training in Gainesville by far , whether kickboxing, jiu jitsu or judo. The instruction and detail kaj falls delivers is unparallel. Learn real techniques for self defense and modern day competition (mma,kickboxing or bjj)

Definitely the best, most technical and modern Jiu Jitsu in the area

World-class instruction.💯💯💯
