This place and sensei chuck are absolutely great. I highly recommend Northeastern.
Longest running jiu jitsu school in the valley area, accept no substitute. You will get in shape and learn proper techniques. Richie is a great teacher who has many years of experience. Rex Harris is a genuine boxing instructor who will teach you proper boxing techniques and conditioning. Price is great too. Have not been there in a few years due to financial situation but would still train if I could.
Going to Norteastern jujitsu is the highlight of my week. It's a great place to get in shape and have fun doing it. I'm learning new skills from the best!
Have attended classes here on and off for the past several years. It’s incredibly beginner friendly! Richie, who’s the Bjj instructor, is extremely knowledgeable and one of the nicest guys you’ll meet, along with the owner Chuck. If you’re interested in trying martial arts out, this is the place to go!
I've been training off and on at this location for 23 years. I've known Chuck the entire time. He bought the school from our original instructor, Paul Marsh. It looks nothing like it originally did when I was 13. Both constantly put money back into the school to improve it. Likewise, a style that was basically hard style Karate and AikiJiu-Jitsu evolved as the rise of MMA exposed what was effective, and what was speculation. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, and Kickboxing along with other elements such as Wrestling, Judo, and others, reshaped the curriculum. I speak from personal experience, Chuck, Rex, and Richie are excellent instructors. All the while, maintaining a safe, fun, yet still challenging, training environment.
