From the reviews
Highly recommend if you are serious about getting into shape, losing weight, or just increasing your overall conditioning. The instructor will push you past the point that you would push yourself, resulting in one of the best workouts you will ever experience.
Shihan John Petrone is the best at what he does, Vee Arnis Jujitsu Street Self Defense! It is obvious his passion is to make sure none of his students are ever victimized. He makes it thorough yet simple. Weapons. Empty hand. Weapon defense. It's all there.
Attended the Weapon Deployment/Weapon Retention class taught by John Petrone this past Saturday. Thought it would be a good class for concealed carry and it did NOT disappoint!
I’ve had a fantastic experience at Vee Arnis Jujitsu. The instruction is clear, supportive, and incredibly knowledgeable, making the class welcoming for students of all levels. The training environment is respectful, encouraging, and focused on real skill development.
Your first BJJ class at Vee Arnis Jujitsu Tactical Training Center
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
