I have been training here for the last few months and they have awesome coaches and this is very a good place to get trained even if you are a beginner.

I’ve been training at this gym for a number of years now. All I can say is that training here has greatly improved my life in a number of ways. The coaches are top-​notch and are willing to work with everyone. The facilities are the best in the area. There are numerous classes throughout the week to accommodate most schedules. Everyone at the gym is amazing and friendly and willing to work with new people.
If you’re interested in jiu-​jitsu, I cannot recommend DMJJA enough.
ADDITIONAL:
I wanted to add that Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is an excellent form of exercise that also has been shown to be an effective form of self defense. The academy has adult classes every day but Thursday for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and recently increased the number of kids’ classes during the week. The gym also has Muay Thai kickboxing and a modest MMA program. Yoga was also recently added to the schedule two to three times per week.
The academy caters to athletes of any level, from straight-​off-​the-​couch to expert martial artists.
The academy also has a weight lifting /​cardio room for members to use during the hours the academy is open.
I seriously cannot recommend this gym more. It is amazing and I feel like anyone would enjoy and benefit from classes provided.
