Why Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? Why Now?

The Many Benefits of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

What Other Students Say
Andrew Cunningham

Pittman's academy is a locally owned, professionally run, clean, family environment with the highest ranking American black belt (under Carlos Machado) as the owner and proprietor.
The staff is attentive and courteous, and the academy is a very goal oriented atmosphere where there are both child and adult classes available. I'm a local professional and family man -not a professional fighter, "hardcore" trainee, or other tough guy type.
I've always felt welcomed by staff and fellow students. Finally, the owner and proprietor, Professor Pittman, cares deeply for the progress and welfare of his students in and outside the academy.
He is dedicated to training both competent martial artists and successful members/ leaders in our community. Come give it a try.

I am very impressed with Professor Pittman’s dedication to his students and the overall experience with the academy.
I’ve trained and visited numerous gyms over 3 years and have never seen a gym that emphasized core values, becoming a leader, and applying those lessons learned outside the gym. The attitude of the students is all about sharing and continuous improvement.
The staff are very welcoming and the number of black belts assisting classes speaks to the value they have gained through this academy. This is a serious place to train for serious people.
