This is a great community made up of coaches, students, and parents who care. I've worked with Coaches Cory and Sam at the NAGA Tournaments for some time now and both are kind, ethical, intelligent, humble guys who also happen to be highly respected BJJ Black Belts. The facility is very spacious, super clean (The bathrooms were so clean I thought they used toothbrushes on the toilets) and there's plenty of opportunities for open training, private lessons, and structured classes. What I like most about this particular academy is the encouraging environment they've created. There's a healthy non-bro-ish competitive spirit. Students are always cheering their classmates on, encouraging each other to push a bit harder, do better, and be the best they can be. It's a really inspiring culture, which is easy to get into and something many people could use in his/her lives. If you or anyone you know is looking to get (and stay) in shape, learn ho
In a world that is ever changing and full of uncertainty it is always relieving to come into sam's gym and enjoy the clean quality training from a very experienced and high level black belt. there is no doubt that this gym offers some of the highest level of training because of the staff and instructors not to mention the outstanding level of respect that comes from the training partners as well this gym is a family and proves that statement every time I arrive. if you are looking for a place that can be trusted you have found it.
I was visiting from out of town and looking for a place to train. I found Professor Samuel Kimmel's gym a very welcoming place. He was very hospitable and his students were friendly. The location was good and easy to find. The gym was clean and well kept. I could tell that Professor Samuel took much pride in his school, his students, and his jiu jitsu. Had a BLAST, Professor! It was a pleasure to come and visit, and I hope to come back very soon.
Short version: You won't be disappointed. This place and these people can change your life. I've never made so much physical and mental progress in such a short amount of time. I am humbled daily and it's somethings I think everyone could use in their life. Even more impressive, I never feel like a little fish in a ocean of sharks. (Despite how true that really is.) Because everyone has welcomed me with open arms (and closed guards.) Sam is a Jiu Jitsu beast, and one of the most approachable and friendly people I've ever met. He comes across honest and sincere and has nothing but love and patience for his students. Come on down, and give it a roll.
This place is awesome. Good humble people willing to work with people from out of town, and make them feel like family. Absolutely loved it. Recommend them 100 %. Hard to find a legit black belt willing to share all his knowledge take advantage people! I have to drive 2 and a half hrs from home just to find a legit Brazilian Jiu-jitsu black belt to train with. 5 stars. COME CHECK THIS PLACE OUT. Their kids program is legit too!
I've been training here for almost 2 years. I've had martial arts experience elsewhere and I have to say this is the most welcoming and enjoyable place to train! Our instructor, Sam, is very knowledgeable and patient. Whether you're looking for an after-school program for your kids or looking to train yourself, this is the place to be!
