Triangle Academy is one of the most impactful communities I've ever belonged to. From my first day on the mats I felt seen and valued. The first day I missed a class (vacation) I received a text message checking in. People matter at Triange...Within my first month, students had the opportunity to participate in "Sober October"... i.e. if there's something you need to let go of to become the best version of yourself...just drop your name in the bucket ...So Coach Clay checked in all month to see if I was on the right path. That level of personal accountability is above and beyond! I say all of this to let you know that this academy is DIFFERENT. From a jiu-jitsu perspective... Coach Clay, Owen, Adrianna, Zac, Rishi, Justin, and others are incredible teachers. Knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, and always evolving. I also believe Triangle has the best training partners around. This room is hard! However, my coaches and training partners have inspired me to persevere, believe in myself, and enjoy each step of the journey. On a personal note, training jiu-jitsu has been the best investment on my emotional health. I am more calm, more balanced, and more at peace. This carries over into all areas of life (family and work especially). If you're on the fence, just walk through the doors; you won't regret it!

Clay is the real deal. He leads with integrity, knowledge, and a genuine passion for the sport and for his students. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned competitor, he meets you where you are and helps you grow — not just as a grappler, but as a person. You can tell he truly cares about everyone who walks through that door, and that energy sets the tone for everything at this gym. But honestly, what makes Triangle truly special is the members. The community here is warm, welcoming, and encouraging in a way that’s rare. No ego, no cliques — just a group of people who love the art and genuinely want to see each other improve. I’ve never felt more at home on a mat. Take it from someone like myself if you’re nervous about giving it a go just do it. You won’t regret it and we are all here to help and to grow and get better.

Five stars is truly not enough to express how incredible this gym is. The quality of the programming is unmatched, every single coach is thoughtful and kind, and the foundational elements they teach children translate into every area of life. We have been here for a year and every person is treated with respect and kindness. Don’t hesitate. Sign up and join a gym who truly understands community and that age doesn’t determine capability. In addition to the kids programming, I’ve personally participated in the women’s self defense classes which left me feeling strong, empowered, and capable. Triangle is doing it right!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. From my first time here, this gym feels like home. It’s a clean & comfortable environment, with a very respectful atmosphere. & a pace I believe works for everyone! Regardless of age or experience level.

I reached out to Clay through the website about dropping in the day before, and he was super responsive and welcoming. He went over the house rules ahead of time and made everything easy. When I showed up, Clay and Adrianna greeted me and gave me a quick tour. The facility was clean, organized, and clearly well taken care of. The class was great and really informative. Clay checked in on me throughout to make sure everything made sense and that I was good as a visitor. Everyone was friendly and respectful, and the rolls were tough in the best way, which I definitely appreciated. Top notch academy. I will for sure be dropping in again anytime I am in town.
