Would never thought I would be training BJJ. I jumped in not knowing what to expect, with no experience. I called the gym and spoke to Kyle to get information about Saga Jiu Jitsu. He was very pleasant and invited me to a Thursday class that he was teaching. Went to the class as total beginner and got hooked ASAP. Everyone was welcoming, A real community. Everyone training and working together, no matter what level you are. The coaches, Kyle, Meida, Joe, Danny and Paul are great, very humble, and are always willing to take the time to answer a question or go over something you don’t understand. They also have different styles, so decades and abundance of knowledge to develop your BJJ craft. It will be the best decision you made. For one price, you can go to all classes 7 days a week. I highly recommend Saga Jiu Jitsu for anyone. You’re welcome.
It’s easy to get lost looking for a new hobby, especially with the mcdojos that clog up search engines looking for a quick buck. Not Here. Visited Saga recently and was blown away by the facility. What you will find here is the following: Caring, Competitive Coaches. Ones that will do their best to work with you to be the best jiu jitsu player you can be. Each coach specializes in their own style of jiu jitsu. Though it will never feel gimmicky, but more personalized. Friends, who will turn into family - Every student I had met at saga quickly became a friend of mine. Even after class we would talk about details in the class or just life in general. There was never a cold interaction. A spacious facility - Saga has not 1 but 2 training mats, with that they have a spacious changing room, bathroom, and even a weight room (though I did not have the chance to try it) A competitive history: one of the first things you may notice is the walls

I trained at Saga for a few years, from Blue to Purple belt and can speak from experience when i say it’s a great gym with great people running it. Theres a whole wealth of experienced coaches, from real solid fundamentals, to high level wrestling coaches, leg lock experts and choke experts. There is a lot to be gained as far as Jiu Jitsu knowledge in this gym. Great room for both competitors and hobbyists alike. If you want some tough rounds and competition prep, thats available. If you want to just learn from highly experienced people and do it casually then thats available too. I recommend anyone who's into BJJ checking it out.
One of the best things I’ve done is join Saga. Kyle and Maida take the time to personally understand each individuals goals and what they are looking to get out of their jiu jitsu experience. The gym has a diverse variety of students and offer different classes that fit everyone’s needs (no gi/gi, beginner, advanced, open mat, wrestling, Q&A, etc). All of the members and coaches make it clear that when you join Saga, you are now part of a family.
I’ve been a member at SAGA since about September 2022, and I cannot recommend them enough. Kyle was really friendly and made it easy to get started, all the black belts are super cool. Training there has been a huge privilege and I am always challenged and pushed to be better by pretty much everyone there. The more experienced guys are super welcoming and always offering knowledge, and everyone seems to check their ego at the door. Being part of this community has been great for me physically and mentally. 11/10 gym to train at.
