Testimonials

My husband and daughter have been training extra at Prodigy (not our home gym). They recently competed and the additional training, mat time, and helpfulness of the community and instructors at Prodigy helped them reach their personal goals and feel confident competing.

I visited here from Texas. As a black belt, I've visited many gyms over the years. This one ranks super high for how friendly and welcoming they are. It was a great time and professor Thao was awesome!

Great time dropping in from out of town, super friendly staff that helped me with a gi. If you’re thinking about trying Jiu Jitsu for the first time this is a great place to start.

Prodigy is amazing!!

Instructors were amazing and the owner is so kind. Knew i was going to sign up the second I walked in the door.

Awesome first experience. Definitely recommend trying this out.

Great first experience would for sure recommend

Love it! Great instructors! Highly recommend

Our experience at Prodigy has been really positive. The staff was very welcoming to my daughters and I. The adult classes are full of diverse body types and skill sets. Each instructor has their own unique style of teaching but the lessons still applies to everyone. You also have the freedom to develop your own style of jiujitsu while receiving feedback from the instructors. Everyone is allowed to roll with anyone. However, you are allow to say no if you don’t want to roll. (It’s not a taboo to ask higher belts to roll here.) The kids classes have knowledgeable instructors and are hands on. The kids are always having fun learning while being safe. Some of them even stay after class in groups to play because of the friendships they have created. The gym is very clean and spacious. Overall, if you are looking for a gym that offers good camaraderie, sense of community, great juijitsu and will push you, Prodigy is the place to be.

My daughter loved the class! Great environment and instructors! Highly recommend!!!

After years of promising to make it and get training started I finally made it in today. Great people, great environment and very knowledgeable people. I look forward to a lifetime of training. If you have any questions or want to try the gym out reach out the Justin. Very fair priced with a variety of classes for everyone including children.

Extremely friendly and welcoming environment with some of the best jiu-jitsu and muay thai instructors around.

I love seeing the kids learn so much technique in a fun way - it’s never the same class there’s always more!!

My son just started, everything has been great so for, I’ll leave another review after he’s been in a while and I know what I’m talking about.

I have been attending Prodigy for about 3 years now. I can honestly say that the community and the atmosphere could not be better. Instructors are knowledgeable and truly take an interest in the success of the students. You always feel like a valued member of the team at Prodigy.

I just showed up to see what it was all about and got right in for a free class. As a short female I wasn’t sure how I would be received, but everyone was extremely welcoming, friendly, and helpful. I very much enjoyed my experience and came back to sign up and continue with Jiu Jitsu and Prodigy Martial Arts. Highly recommend!

Awesome gym. Very clean and everyone is welcoming. Great staff and training partners. Perfect for beginners and experienced. Can’t say enough good things about Prodigy!

Prodigy provides top level instruction from seasoned professionals. The gym and all facilities are very clean. The atmosphere is friendly and it is a great place to train for beginners and advanced members.

Really cool place and friendly staff. This is the 6th different gym I’ve gone to and it seems to have a really good mix of helpful and skilled trainers and beginners. The most impressive facility I’ve been to

I received a recommendation from a friend to try this gym and I was not disappointed. Knowledgeable and friendly instructors, and a great community of people that help each other progress and improve their skills.

Love learning jiu jitsu at Prodigy! Everyone is always so welcoming and patient and excited to help you learn, no matter where you are at in your journey. The facility is always clean and bright. The 101 Class on Monday nights is very beneficial for those that are new; questions are always encouraged and answered and members of all belt levels are always willing to help. Such a welcoming community.Walking into the doors of Prodigy is one of my favorite parts of the week!

I have been training at Prodigy for over a year and a half, and I can confidently say that it is one of the best martial arts gyms I've ever experienced. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm, friendly atmosphere that made me feel welcomed and part of the community.

I highly recommend trying this gym out! It does not matter what experience you have or physical shape you are currently in. The best time to start is now! Come check this gym out I guarantee you will not regret it!

I have been going to Prodigy for 2 years. I have tried multiple other Jiu-jitsu gyms but eventually ended up quitting without making any progress. At Prodigy, I've felt a real sense of belonging and mentorship. Everyone from the coaches to students are very welcoming and want you to succeed and grow. The instructors are top notch! The classes are easy to follow and they have a wide variety of black belts to help. The facility itself is beautiful and kept very clean. I couldn't have found a better gym and am happy that I've finally found somewhere where I've made real progress, friends, and continue to improve my skills. I highly recommend!

Prodigy Martial Arts provides valuable knowledge for those who want to learn Jiu Jitsu. The instructors are friendly and great at teaching techniques. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone wanting to learn a martial art.

Great customer service and very kind. Easy to get along with!

If you’re interested in Jujitsu Prodigy is the place. No matter where your skill level is, Prodigy has a class for you. I’ve been to several other different gyms and Prodigy is the the best one I’ve been to. There are no egos here. Everybody is here to train and work hard together. It is great because while I’m training nn the downstairs mat, my son gets to take the kids class upstairs. My son loves Jujitsu and the instructors. They also offered Muay Thai classes and have free weights that you can use before and after class. It is the one stop shop. Thank you to the owners. They are the friendliest guys there.

My daughter and I go to Prodigy! As a full time working parent, we needed a place that we both loved the atmosphere but also where I could workout while she does to save on time. It’s a well balanced place that provides great technique, good workouts, and wonderful people. We are very lucky to have such a great place to train at.

My 15-year old son and I just started at Prodigy yesterday. We took a Muay Thai class and it was awesome. The facility is clean, well lit, and properly outfitted. The staff is friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend Prodigy!

Visited from out of town. Really incredible facility with a great atmosphere and great people! 100% recommend

The staff at Prodigy immediately reached out after I requested to train here. I was nervous like most people trying things for the first time. However, when I arrived, I felt so welcomed by the staff and the people who attend. I look forward to continuing my journey in Ju Jitsu and Muy Thai and encourage others to check Prodigy out.

My first BJJ and Muy Thai gym . Haven’t felt more welcomed anywhere else . The instructors are the best and everyone treats each other well and with manners . 10/10

I have been at Prodigy for 6 months and really enjoy this journey. Jiu jitsu has made me physically stronger, and mentally calmer. The atmosphere at Prodigy is family like, and emphasizes learning and growth, with some humor thrown in.

i tried my first class and it seemed like a really good place to start training best place i’ve ever trained at and i’d recommend training here too if you wanna get good

Great clean modern gym! Excited to start training here.

Instructors are super patient and very patient with beginners. The gym is also very clean and welcoming!

Glad I came to Prodigy! Lots of drilling in class which I really appreciate. Very welcoming and open environment as wellEdited a year in: due to my unpredictable schedule, I have dropped into some half dozen BJJ gyms in the Twin Cities. I can say with complete confidence that Prodigy is the best gym in the cities in every way.The facility is spacious and always clean, with bathrooms separate from locker rooms so you can change in privacy without holding up the bathroom.Black belts / Coaches are approachable, knowledgeable, and above all, good teachers. Their focus is on fundamentals of BJJ rather than trendy sport BJJ that’s obsessed with footlocks and NoGi fads, though there is still NoGi training as well as Gi.The team have also done an excellent job of cultivating a culture of respect and kindness for all that come and train. There are no mat bullies at Prodigy, and I’m proud to say that Prodigy is my home for Jiu Jitsu.

Very nice gym. I travel often for work and was in town for the week. A coworker told to check Prodigy Martial Arts out and I was glad I did. Very welcoming instructors and students at the gym.

This is by far my favorite jujutsu gym I’ve ever been to. The staff is friendly and welcoming, the gym is big and clean. I enjoy both the kick boxing and jujutsu classes that they offer. And overall a really fun experience.

Great place one of my favorite gyms to go to clean gym friendly people and staff, best coaches I have ever had super motivating. If your looking into learning jujutsu or kickboxing definitely worth giving this place a try truly a great experience you get here.

The 3 owners have created such an incredible environment for every kinda person who walks in their doors. I would recommend them 100 times out of 100! Thank you Prodigy! Thank you so much!

One of a kind training experience here!!! I’m a brown belt (145er) out of Texas and was visiting someone close, when she suggested we train!
The advanced class, held in their upstairs area, was fantastic with unique scenarios set up. I rolled with everyone from blue belt all the way to all 3 black belts and had a truly fun experience that was amazing. Challenging rolls all around but still an awesome time!!!
I stayed for the fundamentals class as well just to work the techniques and was met with clear instruction and concise answers for anything I mentioned.
The atmosphere was extremely welcoming and I already am looking forward to visiting for another reason now. Every time I’m in the area now, this is my go to spot hands down.
Thank you so much to the Professors who welcomed me with open arms and generous rolls!

PS Also going back on Saturday and Sunday for more of this amazing place!!!

My daughter just joined. Justin is easy to work with and everyone is so friendly.

My daughter and I go here! I do class while she’s In the kids class. I can’t think of many activities where a mom and daughter duo get to watch each other progress through a sport in quite the same way. It’s like being surrounded by family at this gym. People are genuinely committed to helping each other thrive. It’s the atmosphere I’ve always wanted my kiddo to grow up in and I’ve found it here, with these wonderful people. Our time spent here is priceless. Thank you to everyone at Prodigy! OSS!👊

My 9 year old son has been a member for a few years. The coaches are great with kids of all ages. Love that kid classes are available Mon-Fri and that you can stop in any day. Highly recommend Prodigy Martial Arts!

The coaches are great here and the other students make you feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend this gym to anyone who is looking to start out in Muay Thai or BJJ. Looking forward to the progress made.

I had wanted to get into jiu jitsu for years but had so many worries and fears so I kept putting it off. I thought I would just get beat up, made fun of or get hurt. I finally pulled the trigger because my friend got a membership at Prodigy so I thought I would atleast try it. I AM OBSESSED! Not only was I worried for nothing but I had no idea the excitement and joy I was missing out on. Prodigy Martial Arts is a fantastic gym. The cleanliness is immaculate. The friendliness is more than welcoming. The vibes are chill , everyone is there to have fun, learn and support each other. The music is vibing lol and the work out is top notch. Truly a spectacular gym with incredible Instructors. I would recommend Prodigy to absolutely anyone.

Great group of people to learn Jiu Jitsu with. Very family friendly, facility is bright & clean. With the simultaneous Adult and Kids classes, it's a breeze for the whole family to learn.

Some of the best instructors I've ever met and worked with! A genuinely awesome place and group of people as well!! Highly recommend!

Great atmosphere and instructors! Everyone is really cool and trying to help each other out! Effective BJJ training

Great gym with nice atmosphere. Spring floor, two training room, friendly stuff and 3 black belts at the core.

Very responsive to my questions. Very friendly. Great instructors.

Our 7 year old is developmentally delayed and has work he has to do with occasional therapy. He also has a hard time focusing for more than a few minutes at a time. I was amazed at how focused and well he did when he took his first class at Prodigy Martial Arts. Not only are his lessons improving his core strength, coordination, and balance, but his focus still is amazing while he’s there. I already see such an improvement. I definitely recommend Prodigy Martial Arts to anyone and everyone. We are even talking about joining.

Stopped in for a free class for our son, it didn’t take long to realize how great everyone here is! My son was welcomed into the class and we immediately felt comfortable. The instructors are amazing and so nice!

Welcoming and friendly with a modern, clean, and organized gym. Attentive and knowledgeable instructors who definitely push you to learn. A great workout with great people!

These guys are great. My daughter loves the classes, and it’s a very supportive atmosphere!

Everyone at the gym is so inviting, the gym is clean and the atmosphere is energetic. Even with no martial arts experience I am having a lot of fun and learning a lot at each class.

Great instructors. Great environment. Love it!

I have stopped in at this gym a few times now while visiting family here in MN. Always friendly, always fun rolls. Great folks and very welcoming.

Our 2 younger kids take classes here and they absolutely love it! The gym is very clean and well organized. The best part is it's such a friendly community and the instructors are so great with the kids. They really take the time to help them learn at any level. I recommend this gym for any person or age!

An amazing place! We have young daughters that attend classes here. A very fun and exciting atmosphere for kids to learn in. I highly recommend this gym. The instructors are amazing!!!

Great instruction, friendly staff, my 13- yo daughter is addicted!

If you are looking for a place to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, this is the place. I go every day, twice a day when it’s open and I love it!

A fantastic family oriented gym. Very helpful and professional instructors. Highly recommend this gym to increase skills and learn in a fun environment.
