Kioto BJJ Green Belt Featured in Newsday!

Sebastian Regis, Kioto BJJ Green Belt, is taking the Long Island wrestling world by storm… as a 9th grader! Here is a piece of the article:

“Perhaps one of the bright spots for East Islip came at 285 pounds, where freshman Sebastian Regis pinned returning league champion Henrik Pierre-Louis in 2:50.

“I pinned with a half-Nelson,” said Regis, who is 6-0 with five pins and one win by forfeit. “I work on that move a lot. My balance and body control are keys to my wrestling technique. I’ve trained Jiu-Jitsu since I was four years old and that has helped me to become a successful wrestler.”

This is a great place! I am so happy we found it. My son has ADD and dyslexia and I have seen such great improvements in his focus.

The kids are so sweet and have really bonded, they all have so much fun!
Amanda Oliveira
I have taken many different types of exercise classes, but none compare to Melissa's Fitness kickboxing class. I love that its a continuous 45 minutes of high intense, well-planned and engaging exercises. Be prepared to work your butt off, but you will see results quickly! Melissa is a very motivating instructor, that is why this will be my third year taking her class!
Erica Neugebauer
My son has been training here for 3 years now and we hope he'll continue for a life time. Not only are the instructors supportive and dedicated, but they integrate you into part of their family. They care about each kid's development on both an individual and group level which is so rare to find these days

Mayra Robayo
Kioto BBJ is the real deal. The teachers are attentive and helpful. They have taken in my son and treat him like family. His confidence is high. He works hard and really enjoys going to class. It is a great way for any kid, boy or girl, to learn to protect themselves, respect others, and burn off some steam. I love the class and think it is absolutely worth the money. Our youngest son will be a student here as well.
