Testimonials:

"I've been training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for about 8 months now and I am having the time of my life. My goal in starting this class was to become more fit, increase self-confidence, and learn more about a skill which has been very intriguing to me for a few years now but never really had the guts to try. I am almost 37 years old and never thought I would be able to keep up with the younger guys but I have lost 28 pounds and feel better than I ever have. The instructors are great, the students are like family, and the facility is top notch. I highly recommend this class no matter what age or athletic ability you may have. "

"Jamal is a great teacher and an amazing athlete. From the first day I walked in to Victory Gym in Iraq, I was inspired by his passion for Mixed Martial Arts and Jiu Jitsu. He was always there to challenge me mentally and physically, and he pushed me to expand my knowledge of the sport. His mentorship and support helped me to win the MND-B Combatives Tournament in Iraq, despite the fact that I was the smallest guy in the heavyweight bracket. I intend to continue competing in MMA and sport Jiu-jitsu upon my redeployment in May of 2009. Had it not been for Jamal's leadership and organization of the Jiu-jitsu program in Iraq, I would not have had the opportunity to improve my skills and rekindle my interest in competing. I am forever grateful for the mentorship and teaching he has provided me and look forward to training with him again when I get back to the states..... thanks Jamal."

- Kyle Considine (Kyle "Juggernaut" Considine is an officer in the US Army. He trained with Victory Top Team while in Iraq and went on to compete and win the heavyweight division of the submission grappling tournament held there.)

"I trained with Jamal Smith for 10 months in Iraq and his teaching techniques are tremendous. He changed me from a just another guy who wrestled in high school into a guy who can grapple and submit guys that outweigh me by 50 pounds. He will motivate you and guide you to realize your full potential. I look forward to heading back to the States and training with him again."
