TESTIMONIALS

What others are saying

"Indy's best kept secret"

"Indy's best kept secret. A wonderful atmosphere to practice BJJ for the entire family. Tahir, the owner is really encouraging, welcoming and a problem solver. Ive appreciated all of the instructors I've met and the community, students, and parents have been warm and inviting. They offer classes for ages 3-5 BJJ and 6+ BJJ classes, as well as Adult Jiu Jitsu, Youth & Adult Judo, Muay Thai, and Wrestling. I would recommend this gym to any person or family looking to improve in martial arts or wrestling, as well as improve their physical and mental health. New Wave is a supportive environment with expert instructors. As a beginner I am in the same class with advanced belts and I feel like I'm already learning so much and my family is loving it as well. Professor/Coach Gabriel (squared) has been really kind and patient with me and I feel super lucky to have found New Wave."

"couldn't ask for a better professor"

"This place feels like my second home. From the moment I walked in, I knew I found something special. The atmosphere is welcoming, the people are supportive, and the encouragement is nonstop—like a true family. I couldn’t ask for a better professor or a better environment to grow in."

"Everyone is very welcoming"

"New Wave Jiu Jitsu has been a great place for me to train. I have been here for a little over a year now and have made some good friends. The instructors are great. I absolutely love their attention to detail. I think I am the oldest person that trains consistently but I still feel like a put up a decent fight with the young bucks that are half my age. The students are eager to learn and willing to help others improve. This is a place where you can be serious as well as crack a joke from time to time. The establishment is clean and well maintained. It offers tons of amenities as well as other classes like Judo and Kickboxing. Everyone is very welcoming and you never feel left out. I encourage any and everyone to come check us out.."
