I came to this gym with a bit of knowledge about Jiu-jitsu, but nothing special. Before joining, I really looked around town to see which place should get my business. Unfortunately, many places (certainly not all) seemed a bit haughty with new or lower level students. This is not the case with Alive. Bill, who runs the place, is a hoot. I don't know anyone who has tried a class there who hasn't finished the session having learned several things that directly impact their game and walked of the mat with a smile on their face. The positivity in the gym is infectious. I cannot highly enough recommend it. But honestly, don't take my word for it, go and check it out.
Pros: Awesome, friendly, knowledgable, instructors. + atmosphere.
Cons: Honestly, I haven't had a bad experience yet.
