What our students and parents say
Read what students and parents say about training at the Academy.
"Training at the Metrowest Academy is intense and highly effective. But most of all, it's FUN. Join for yourself or join for your family. But join."
"I had already visited a half-dozen schools without finding what I was seeking… He treated them as near to adults as they could be expected to handle, with a firm but empathetic tone… No ego trip for the sensei, scare tactics about the dangerous world, or pressure to go compete for the school. Just an excellent education in self defense, self-control, and maturity, taught by and with great people."
"Little did I know at the time how quickly it would become a second home to our family. It is a place where she has gained confidence in herself, leadership skills, and even more importantly some of her best friends both in and out of a choke hold or arm bar… Come in and say hello, I don't think you will be disappointed."
"My son Elliott was hesitant to try Jiu-Jitsu, agreeing to just one test class. By the end of that first lesson, he was tugging on his shirt asking when he’d get his gi! Fast forward nearly two years: he deeply loves the training, the friends, and the positive outlet it provides—he’s even stepped up into leadership training."
"The staff create a very welcome and fun place where our kids feel very challenged but also successful… Our shy non-athletic daughter blossomed during her training and our son who struggled to fit into team sports has discovered the perfect combination of individual and team practice. Highly recommend!"
"Every person from the senseis to the coaches to the students, is helpful, encouraging, and do their best to bring about an environment of positivity. My daughter has told me multiple times that going to jiujitsu is the highlight of her day and what she looks forward to the most."
"Sensei Paul is an outstanding teacher. He relates very well to children, is capable of teaching all ages and abilities, and really makes the classes fun for all. He clearly has mastery of the material and a great deal of passion for what he does."
"A well deserved 5 stars. We're in the ninja class. Paul is a phenomenal business owner and has structured a great program and community. The ninja class instructors are great!"
"I love the amount of patience they have with the little ninja classes… I have a 4y that started who has such a hard time focusing and attending the classes have helped so much. They even give great encouragement to the parents of the real rambunctious kids like mine where I don't feel like I'm “that parent, with that kid” lol."
"The instructors are fantastic. Enthusiastic, motivating, and challenging. The community is great too. I'm here four or five days a week and can't say enough good things."
"We've been attending for about a year and my 6-year-old is having fun. More importantly, he's learning valuable life skills. The coaches and senseis are great, and the prices feel incredibly reasonable for the value."
