Arthur B., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Aug. 19, wrote, "[Edwin] uses his advanced knowledge of sports science and body mechanics to create a very unique approach to teaching the art. The curriculum focuses a lot on the fundamentals of jiu-jitsu and grappling."

Yelper Asia Y. added, “...The clear and easy-to-follow format and classes make each session challenging for novices like myself, and [help] habitual practices looking to refine their skills and gain more control with their movements.”
