What Our Students Say

I’ve trained in various arts with Coach Lesley and she is incredible. Very clear teacher with the talent to articulate and meet you where you are! She’s phenomenal with kids and skilled across several styles of training. She’s very approachable and non-judgmental, making her a perfect person to learn from! Very fundamentally focused and patient through all aspects of the process. Highly recommend training under her.

Coach Lesley is amazing. I can’t say enough about her. From my son’s very first class with her to his first tournament, all the way up to his last class she was wonderful. Coach Lesley has a huge heart, she loves each one of her students and is there not only as a coach but as a mentor and role model as well. Hands down the best jiu jitsu coach out there!

My kids and I loved training with Lesley in children’s and ladies Jiu Jitsu classes! She has a special way of making training fun but also teaching discipline and technique! She is a five star coach in my book!

I have been coached by Lesley on and off for over two years. In those two years she has helped me learn and sharpen a lot of useful tools. Lesley is very attentive to technique and tendencies while she instructs drills, while also testing your ability to use those skills. Her attention to detail doesn’t stop at the gym — she also supports you with a wealth of knowledge to help you prepare for personal challenges like losing weight or competing at a tournament.

Lesley is an amazing instructor with great attention to detail. She has a lot of knowledge in various martial arts styles. She always makes sure that her students understand the concept by the end of each session. 10/10 will always recommend.
