Gracie Combat Jiu-Jitsu Academy — Local services in Ashburn

This academy has everything I was looking for in a gym. Instruction - Beginning with great instruction, Dave, Matt, and Adam teach basic and advanced techniques and break them down so their easier to understand. There's also optional cardio and drills to help you improve more quickly! Mat time - After instruction, it's time to roll. Class doesn't have to end until everyone wants to leave (sometime after 10 or 11!) We can practice the techniques of the day or have open rolling.

Great people - The gym members are consistent and everyone wants everyone else to improve. It's a great way to spend time...

I definitely recommend that you drop...
