  • “My husband and I started BJJ back in the beginning of august. I was so scared to go into a martial arts gym for the first time, but once we got there everything changed. Luke and Josh are some of the nicest people ever. Along with everyone else that attends the gym as well. There are important policies that ensures a safe environment to be able to learn and have fun! Everyone is super nice and willing to teach you or talk to you. 10/10 would recommend this gym for anyone and everyone! ”

  • "My family has been a part of Clinch Academy for over 10 years. The results have been amazing. We have learned so many incredible skills through their classes. Our confidence has increased as we've learned how to protect ourselves, how to build solid health habits for everyday living and how to be a respectful and dedicated team player. Luke, Caty and their family have gone above and beyond to welcome us, train us and make us a part of the Clinch family. We recommend them 100%!"
