I love training at Upstream! Seph and Nora provide a welcoming atmosphere and the instruction is top notch. The culture of the gym is very laid back and all members have a no ego approach during drilling. I'm a huge believer in this gym and the owners and look forward to many years of progression in my juijitsu journey.

I love this place and so does my kid. They are awesome instructors, they are able to manage a busy class and focus on every kid. That is a big deal considering due to the size most places would leave some kids out. They split the kids in a pair of twos and monitor them until they get the moves, which I like because it forces my kid to keep on trying. This is our first month and I already see a change in my kid, when doing homework so doesn't quit until she gets it right. This is definitely building character.

Overall this place seems like a great place to train and I would recommend it to anyone in the area. I stopped by for a drop in class while in Richmond for work and have mostly good things to say about it and a couple nitpicks. They were very welcoming, laid back, had good instruction and seemed to have a very good rapport with the kids class that was going on when I first arrived. However, when I first asked the cost for a drop in class I was told $15 then was charged $20 in person. Not a huge deal. But then during class after the instructor demonstrated a move that was new to me, I asked for some guidance and instead of breaking it down for me I was just told to do whatever we were doing before since it was probably too much for me. I’ve been training for 6 months and understand that I’m pretty low on the totem pole, but I feel like if I’m paying $20 for one class a little guidance isn’t asking too much

Our child attends Upstream BJJ in Richmond VA and is completely taken. He’s four and a half year old and initially felt nervous and shy in the group environment, however Coaches Seph and Nora were brilliant at easing him in with enthusiasm and space for giggles. As parents, we appreciate the new found interest in listening, focusing, and of course, the quick bedtimes! Beyond that, it’s in a great central location, so when you feel like your kids were especially good in class, you can always walk around the corner to many of Richmond’s best eateries.
