About Us

Freestyle Dojo specializes in No-gi Jiu-Jitsu and MMA style striking. We work to uplift every student past their limits on and off the mat. We strive to build strong communities and camaraderie primarily through training but also This comes through social events like holiday celebrations, hangouts, and UFC watch parties! What sets us apart from other gyms is the breadth of technique and holistic approach we take to training. From their first month our students are taught with the ultimate goal in mind, to create as complete a martial artist as possible. All our lessons are taught with safety and self-care in mind, instructing students how to protect themselves and their training partners. We ensure the best instruction with a variety of methods: coaches and students rolling together, 1-on-1 time, after-class help, and tape review. All of this awaits you at Freestyle Dojo!

I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing both my son and daughter flourish, with a bounty of previously untapped confidence. Navigating, post-Covid, thru pivotal years has been facilitated by a tremendously engaged Dojo master, Mike, and a manager, Jen, who have delicately balanced the kids’ emotional and spiritual wellbeing with a need to equip them with confidence building tools to address life’s challenges with an assertive yet measured approach.....

My favourite NoGi BJJ gym, and I've trained at several places over the last few years. I have to commute further than normal to get here and its still worth it. It's great for all levels, from beginner to black belt.

I had a fun time learning the techniques of the takedowns and the guard. Mike is a great teacher. He help me correct my mistakes while in guard and it help defend myself from getting mounted when we were situational sparring. The situational rolling was very fun and a great learning experience. Freestyle dojo is great place to learn No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu.

Freestyle Dojo offers free trial for the first class. I had minimal to almost zero knowledge on jiu jitsu before coming here. However, Mike and Jesse have been very patient and encouraging. You can tell they care a lot about their students and the work they do. And they are just super cool people.....
