Breakthrough Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

I was nervous and hesitant to join a martial art, but it was a very welcoming atmosphere. The instructors were amazing, super kind, and patient. Would definitely recommend!

My 8 year old son has been attending classes for nearly a year at Breakthrough. The instructors are knowledgeable, patient and keep the class focused and engaged. We have seen a huge improvement in our sons confidence and self esteem both inside the gym and at home. We feel this change can be directly connected to the time he spends at Breakthrough practicing BJJ. I highly recommend signing your child (or yourself) up as there is no downside to practicing discipline, patience and overall self-improvement.

Not a bad place or environment to train but the belt system is a little off on average each level of white belt (stripes) should take atleast 4-6 months, blue 6-9 months and so on but here everyone progresses much faster but really should’t.

Great instructors. Great experience. Perfect way to meet new people and learn the fantastic martial art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

I walked into this gym as a nervous overweight 35 year old. I can safely say becoming a team member at Breakthrough BJJ was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. A welcoming team with top level instruction. Every instructor is a talented and competition tested Jiu Jitsu player. They encourage hard work, team work. Incredibly knowledgeable and accessible in their instruction methods. Jiu Jitsu is an excellent sport to develop a useful and fun skill set, build confidence, and get in shape. I literally guarantee if you go into this place with an open mind and the willingness to work you will get more out of it then you could imagine. You will want to go to every class you can!! Come try it out!!!

Amazing Instructors who have created a very welcoming club and an atmosphere that will have you addicted to the sport. By far the best mental and physical thearpy around.

Beyond thankful for this gym and everyone in it! Unreal coaches and teammates always motivating eachother and always there for eachother on or off the mats, best environment you could be in! Family

Fantastic group of guys and gals at this gym. The instructors are very knowledgeable and motivating. Great for all ages and skill levels!!

After 4 years out of MMA and gaining over 100lbs, I decided to move back home to Amherst from Calgary and the last thing I expected to find was a Jiu-jitsu gym. I was nervous to start training again, especially being 370lbs. But, once I got to the gym the transition was easy. The coaches and team are amazing, the atmosphere is super friendly and welcoming, and the price is absolutely fantastic.Come and try the free week of classes and I guarantee you will not regret it. For anyone struggling with their weight, depression, anxiety, etc like me - Jiu-jitsu and MMA are an amazing outlet!

One of the best things I have ever done for myself. Coming 3 days a week has done wonders for my mental and physical health. I cannot recommend Breakthrough enough!
