“If you’re looking for a Jiu Jitsu gym with an amazing community, this is the place. A real sense of belonging can sometimes be hard to find or gets lost over time in other schools, but here the culture is truly community first.

Drew, the owner and head professor, is the real deal. He’s dedicated not only to teaching high-level Jiu Jitsu, but to spreading it the right way, with humility, passion, and a focus on building people up. You can tell he genuinely cares about his students and goes above and beyond to give back and create something special.

The gym is also lucky to have Professor Luis Redig, who is just as community driven and always bringing people together. Luis has a way of making everyone feel welcome, and it’s obvious how much he cares about the students and the atmosphere on the mats.

They host open mats that are truly open to everyone, including people from other academies, and they’re always welcoming to drop-ins. It says a lot about the environment they’ve built. It’s all about sharing the art, learning together, and keeping the Jiu Jitsu community strong.

Couldn’t recommend this place more.“

“More Than Just a Workout—A Second Family

I’ve been training at Panthera Fighting Arts since the COVID pandemic—over three years now—and I can confidently say it has been life-changing. From the very first class, I was welcomed into a community that is supportive, skilled, and truly inspiring. The camaraderie among students is unmatched, and Sifu Dave is an incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated instructor. His expertise and guidance have helped me grow not just physically, but mentally as well.

The workout? Unbeatable. Why drag yourself to a boring gym when you can train in real-world self-defense, build confidence, and get 10x the workout—while actually having fun and making friends? Whether it’s the intensity of Jeet Kune Do training, the challenge of empty-hand combat, or the mental focus it requires, every class pushes me to new levels of strength and endurance.

If you’re looking for a place to train, grow, and be part of a family that supports you every step of the way, this is it. Panthera Fighting Arts isn’t just a martial arts school—it’s home.“
