BLACK BELTS
GOLD STANDARDS

  • Nothing I can write will give this school the props they deserve. An amazing place, with amazing people. You can go hard or you can go light. A great atmosphere for all levels of Jiu Jitsu students. After being inactive for the past 3 yrs, this is definitely the workout and physical activity I needed. Take advantage of the free trial class and gauge it for yourself. I believe you would not be disappointed

  • Black Gold Jiu Jitsu encompasses everything positive within the grappling community. They truly emphasize Jiu Jitsu for everyone. It has been regular practice for many schools to discourage students from training outside their own academy. Black gold promotes others from all gyms and belt levels to come by and train. On any given Sunday it is common to see a mixture of schools sharing the mats and their passion for Jiu Jitsu. Along with their fantastic fundamental principles professor Michael Hay is a fantastic instructor. The attention to detail and knowledge he shares shows his love for the sport, and passion for teaching others. I can speak from first hand experience when I say after he’s done teaching the kids class, the parents have to drag their kids away. They are having so much fun while learning an important life skill and developing discipline without realizing it. From the moment you step in the front door, you’ll receive one of the warmest welcomes from Pascale Leonard, to the moment you throw your bag on your shoulder. I can make you one promise. You will not regret calling Black Gold Jiu Jitsu your home. The dynamic duo that is Michael Hay and Pascale Leonard have built something amazing together.

  • A passion for teaching and attention to detail are apparent when you walk through the doors. This academy is such a great place to learn, it's clean, spacious and the other students bring a great vibe. I came in from out of town for their grand opening and was welcomed like family. Highly recommend checking them out.

  • Being in my 30’s I was hesitant of starting Jiu Jitsu, but the professor and the team welcome everyone so easily and make the experience painless (mostly 🤣). Black gold is such a fantastic place, clean, professional, and most of all fun. I couldn’t recommend both Jiu jitsu as well as Professor Mikey and the crew. My wife and I both attend class while our kids play and distract themselves. It’s our favorite part of our day.
