Highly recommend EDGE! I did a trial class as I was curious and wanted to try BJJ. Not only was Al and his brother very welcoming from the get go, all the other students were supportive and offered tips.
Al stresses safety first above all else but also going hard and putting in the effort. Hell of a place.
