Our History
Co-owner Jared George has been invested in Next Level Martial Arts & Fitness since 2012. After six years of teaching, Jared fulfilled his aspirations and aquired the academy in 2018. Jared has dedicated himself to improving the academy every day, shifting the focus from trophies and fighters to building a family-like community and values. He’s done that by establishing a safe and supportive environment and surrounded himself with complimentary individuals, including co-owner Bryan Vandergriff. They work daily to pass down Jared’s 25 years of Jiu Jitsu experience, including his greatest lesson: live with a set of values and principles, your pathway may not always be easy but it will always be simple to follow.

What Are Students Are Saying
I’ve also started consistently strength and conditioning training thanks to the programs at the gym, and I’ve been able to make friends and meet a great community.

In addition to the great people, the facility is clean and offers a small weight room if you’re looking to use a squat rack, bench, free weights, kettlebells, battle ropes, and more.

Teammates and coaches really support both which I think is very special but also helps me feel like I can have longevity here as an adult athlete.
