Was in town recently for work and wanted a place to drop in and get some training. Shawn welcomed me with open arms. Everyone there was humble and friendly. Definitely would train there again when I’m back in town. Thank you Shawn!

First time in Oregon for work, and I showed up here looking for somewhere to train during the 3 weeks I was in town. I was welcomed with open arms by the owner who’s called Shawn, and all his students. There are plenty of classes with flexible time options. The coaching is at a very high level—this is 100% one of those gyms where you’ll definitely learn something.

From the moment I found out I was pregnant, I knew I wanted my daughter to be involved in a martial art. I wasn’t sure which one at the time, but I knew I wanted her to gain confidence, discipline, and the ability to defend herself. When she was finally old enough, I began exploring options and reached out to CTA Hillsboro to inquire about class times and age groups. I received a prompt and helpful response, and from that moment, we’ve been a proud part of the CTA Hillsboro family. Now, a little over three years into her Jiu Jitsu journey, I can’t begin to express how grateful I am for this academy. The structure of the program is solid and thoughtfully designed—not only to develop skill, but also to nurture confidence, resilience, and a sense of community. The growth my daughter has experienced since her very first class has been incredible. She has not only developed strong technical skills, but her self-assurance, focus, and determination have all blossomed thanks to the guidance she’s received. Professor Shawn has played such a meaningful role in that development. The care, support, and consistent encouragement offered to her have made all the difference. It’s clear how invested the entire coaching staff is in the progress and well-being of their students. They lead with integrity and truly want to see each child succeed both on and off the mats. We also deeply appreciate the number of class options available each day. The flexibility has been so helpful for our family, and it's wonderful to have the opportunity to train consistently. Beyond the physical and mental growth, one of the most beautiful aspects of her journey at CTA Hillsboro has been the friendships she’s formed. It’s a place where our daughter continues to grow, and we’re truly grateful to be part of the journey. If you’re considering martial arts for your child—or even for yourself—I wholeheartedly recommend CTA Hillsboro. It’s more than a gym. It’s a community that motivates, empowers, and grows with you every step of the way.

We love this Jiujitsu academy! We as a family have been training for 4-5 years now, we joined the adamson bros jiujitsu academy under the Rafael Lovato Jr. association in Seaside Oregon back in 2018/2019. Trained there regularly until we moved out to the Hillsboro area in September of 2022. I didn’t do much research on what gyms were around this area, however I narrowed the options down to two choices. Went to this gym for the first trial classes and I decided the first day this was my new gym. Never tried the other gym, the class schedule is consistent and very workable for my job. I love the training here, it is a little more geared towards competition but they train in a manner anyone with any ability is able to join in and have fun. The instruction is great and I’ve learned so much in the past year! I recommend if anyone male, female..adult or child to try Jiujitsu, it will change your life for the better. This gym is great for both kids and adults, females and males! Everyone can learn Jiujitsu and this gym is a friendly place, very welcoming. Our family of four trains Jiujitsu and I couldn’t recommend it more, I am always telling people they need to try it, you won’t regret it.
