I've been training at Buffalo Bjj for over 9 years now. I'm a purple belt. I'm the definition of hobbyist when it comes to Brazilian jiu jitsu. I can only make 1 or 2 classes a week, sometimes less than that. With that being said I still feel like part of the team. When the competitors go off to tournaments a part of me goes with them. We all shed blood sweat and tears on the mat (which are thoroughly cleaned after every class) so their achievements are our achievements. I've been in addiction recovery for most of the time I've been training Brazilian jiu jitsu and I believe without the training and fellowship of this academy, I would not be here 9 years sober. The positive changes that Brazilian jiu jitsu forces you to make both mentally and physically can not be understated. If you're a person who is facing issues like me, then get in to Brazilian jiu jitsu and get into Buffalo BJJ.
As a local Police Officer in the area, I was looking for the absolute best training for my job. I was referred by a friend, who had over a dozen years of experience and attended dozens of schools.

The Head Instructor, Professor Chuck Anzalone earned his belts directly from Masters Carlson Gracie Sr. and Ricardo de la Riva. Anyone who is unfamiliar with these legends, need only google their names and read for a few minutes to see what an honor that is. World Champions travel here from as far as Brazil to give seminars throughout the year. The atmosphere is relaxed, friendly and very welcoming to new people walking through the door, but the training is a serious work out. While some come to learn MMA, others just come to learn self defense. The
