I have done private lessons, and group classes with Michael Westbrook. He is excellent at adapting techniques to my own physical abilities, or lack thereof. He is patient, skilled, and an excellent coach. the classes are well run, and his sense of humor makes every class fun. My children have also trained with Michael, and he is a superb children's coach. Generous with praise, and able to help them gain confidence as they learn practical and effective self defense, and self discipline.

As a total beginner at Martial Arts, I have greatly appreciated the patience and knowledge of the instructors here, as well as the teamwork and attitude of the students attending. I always feel comfortable at my level, while having positive examples of what to aspire to. Not to mention, no one has called me grasshopper yet!

I am 43 years old and have trained at the Westbrook Self-Defense Academy for just over two years and I can say that MWBJJ (Michael Westbrook Academy) provides some of the best training there is. Prior to signing up I had looked at other schools in the area and was fortunate to find Michael Westbrook and Morris Williams (both black belts) who provide solid technical understanding of the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Michael and Morris have helped me add some major polish to my game providing something that I had missed in prior training which is a solid foundation. I would recommend this place for both beginners and advanced, young and old.

Awesome place to learn BJJ applied to self defense and sport. Instructors take time to guide you through moves you have trouble with (especially if you are very uncoordinated like myself), and you never feel left behind. No ego's on the mat either. New students do not get smashed by the higher ranking belts. The higher ranking students help you through your learning process while drilling and rolling (sparring). I have been to other marital arts schools, gotten lazy, and stopped going in. As long as my credit card payments went through these other schools really didn't care. When I got lazy and took a two month break at MWBJJ I got a call from the head instructor making sure everything was ok in my personal life, and he encouraged me to come back in.
