Reviews of Power of Leverage Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

My son attended Power of Leverage's 2 weeks free unlimited classes. And it was just that: free and unlimited. No gimmicks, pressure or sales pitch. They even gave my son a gi to use for the two weeks (yes they wash them:)). Professor Kelly is very friendly and funny, and very encouraging. And most importantly of all: my son loved it! The kids were SO nice. They treated him like they had known him forever and they helped with all the moves. Overall we had a very positive experience and can't wait to start attending on a regular basis.

Coach Kelly and his students were very welcoming. I flew out to California for a short vacation from the east coast and sparred with him. They train in all aspects to be well rounded in ju jitsu (such as stand up, takedowns, ground, and competition training). I definitely recommend training at this gym.

I just started my kids at Power of Leverage Fountain Valley about a month ago. They are 10, 13 and 14 years old. Words can not express what my family has gained in this short time. In addition to learning very usable self defense skills, they are learning team work, leadership, respect, discipline, social skills, compassion. All in a very natural environment. Their self esteem and confidence has multiplied and they have made new friends. They were welcomed openly by everyone, adults and children. Coach Kelly and Mrs. Maya genuinely care about their students. Coach Kelly has a wonderful balance of providing disciplined training in a fun yet professional manner. The studio is clean, safe and family oriented. My kids absolutely LOVE Coach Kelly, Mrs. Maya and Jiu-jitsu.

I am 54 years old and have trained for over 7 years. I knew Coach Kelly before he opened Power of Leverage and was very impressed with his skill and his ability to teach the art. He is a teacher with real competition experience behind him. The people he has in the gym are top notch and great to be around with a desire to get better and help make others better. As an older student both Coach Kelly and his team have made training fun, safe and rewarding. I would recommend Power of Leverage to anyone.

I've trained with Coach Kelly for a couple of years and he truly is a great guy. He is one of the best instructors in Jiu Jitsu and has the game to prove it. I recommend anyone who is either new to jiu itsu or been rolling for a long time to try out his gym. His teaching style is very unique and he encourages all who step on the mat to work hard. He is very compassionate about what he does and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels like family in his gym. Thanks Coach Kelly for all the time you have spent with me on the mats. If it weren't for you, I would have quit a long time ago!

Power of Leverage Brizilian Jiu Jitsu is a place that i highly recommend. My son is 4 years old he was just diagnosed with autism a few weeks ago. I bring him to therapy around here and i saw the school of Power of Leverage. We walk in that day and where offered a free class. My son loved it and ask me all week to comeback. Coach Kelly is awesome with the kids. He is a great teacher and is really patient with my son and the rest of the students. Coach Kelly also goes above and beyond to make his students feel great. Today many students were getting their Gi (uniform) and my son was crying because he didn't get a Gi because their wasn't one his size, so coach kelly let him borrow a Gi he had that is my son size to use for tomorrow's class. That put a huge smile in my son's face. . Power of leverage is a place that make you feel like your family. I have been to other places that just want your money and smell dirty. Power of leverage is a very clean place and it doesn't smell like sweat and dirty it smells clean. I have recommended this place to my friends and family. My brother a thirteen year old came to try it out today and stayed and now he is part of the team. He is being bullied at school. When class ended here at Power of Leverage. He told me he felt safe.

Jiu Jitsu, power of leverage in fountain valley by fresh and easy is so awesome, like you have no idea. . . When my best friend told me to go try it out, at first I was like sure I'll do it but it might be boring or I'll probably get killed. But then, during the first class I found out that jiu jitsu is so much more than your typical martial art because it's FUN. And USEFUL. You learn so many ways and techniques to protect yourself and no matter what size you are, you can do it. I'm one of those people who would lose to a fight and get tossed thirty feet into the air but jiu jitsu literally will save my life. It's all about leverage, not weight and not muscle power. If you know the right techniques you can do it. I mean, I learned how to flip over people twice my size! I've never been a fan of martial arts until jiu jitsu. Coach Kelly definitely knows what he's doing and I learned so much in just one hour. . . I honestly from the bottom of my heart suggest you try it out!! Seriously, this class will save your life. (Not to mention there's a gelato place right next doors so you can cool off after class) :))

One of the most dedicated instructors i've ever had the fortune of training under. I definitely recommend his school to anyone who is currently training brazilian jiu jitsu, or looking just to try it out. ALL AGES ARE WELCOME!!!

I am fully aware of how Coach Kelly trains himself when he goes into any kind of competition. His drive for excellence is uncanny. He will do the same for you.

Power of Leverage BJJ in Fountain Valley is by far the best choice for learning Jiu Jitsu. The quality of instruction is second to none and I feel very fortunate to receive instruction from Coach Kelly. My son is challenged both mentally and physically and I am truly amazed with his progress. He has become more self-confident, respectful, and focused, and he loves the training! I would highly recommend any age group to train at Power of Leverage!
