Very well taught techniques that are very simple and easy to understand.
Very welcoming and very knowledgeable. The instructor was really thorough and helpful when going through the techniques.
Attending this gym from 2023 to 2025, my experience has been nothing short of phenomenal. The instruction is always interesting and learning is quick. Master Taube is the best part of this gym. He is extremely experienced, yet a humble man. During my time learning BJJ here, I was in college and AFROTC. Master Taube was always supportive of my education military training. I could not maintain the standard rate of membership due to the financial challenges of being a busy college student. Master Taube consistently made deals with me to help my financial struggles. He was always understanding and willing to work with me. Additionally, he took the time to get to know me and I got to know him. I consider Master Taube a close friend for life and I have the upmost respect for him and this gym. I highly encourage anyone interested to give it a try!
My son is new to the school and I love it. The staff is great and very knowledgeable. The owner works with me as a single mom and provides a great rate.
Great facility and ownership! We enjoyed our first trial as a family and looking forward to our return! This club offers classes for all ages!!
RIMA is awesome! The masters have a wealth of knowledge and know how to teach it to you. It feels like a family. A family that fights and sweats and learns to break each others bones, but a family :-)
Amazing facility,amazing staff,the people I trained with were great, everyone's trying to help each other improve and take each other to the next level. If you looking to start training,compete or just looking for a fun way to get in shape i'd highly recommend stopping by.
Great energy for all levels of athletes, Very knowledgeable crew and a fun time!
This place is a must for any Muay Thai, BJJ training. Everyone you meet is so welcoming starting with John, the owner. They welcome all ages and their instructors are very knowledgeable and patient with you! On top of that, they keep the facility clean! I love this place, and will be coming back when I can.
Love this place!
Everyone is super welcoming and helpful. Professor Tricoli is awesome and his expertise is very broad and deep across many martial arts. Several other high ranking veterans yo provide guidance as well.
New location is great too.
I have been training here for about six months and I absolutely love this gym. Professor John, Professor Sean and Professor Alex are all extremely knowledgeable and committed to helping you develop your Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills. This is an incredible gym for all levels of jiu-jitsu practitioners.
John Taupe, called Professor by his students, is a stolid keeper of the faith, a true master of his craft. He teaches not only martial arts but humility, how to be both strong and fair. The gym is unpretentious and inclusive.
I’ve been coming to this gym for the last 4 months or so and I absolutely love it. John is an amazing BJJ instructor and teaches me individually given my previous wrestling experience. The entire experience is welcoming and engaging. I highly recommend anyone who has previously trained or even wants to start fresh, please swing by. (He didn’t charge me for a trial class so if you’re on the fence you have nothing to lose.) Seriously if you want to get into BJJ I strongly vouch for this gym!
I dropped in for a class while I was In town. This is a great place to train. Everyone was very nice and helpful. The locals here are lucky to have such a great place to train! I will be back next time I’m in town
Trained in Muay Thai here for over a year. Highly recommend!
I've been here for a month now and I really like it! I take their fitness kickboxing class a few times a week with different instructors and they're all fantastic! Great workout. Highly recommended :)
I've been training here for almost 2 years and this is the best gym I've ever trained at. All phenomenal instructors, friendly students, and Master Tricoli is a great head coach to have in your corner.
RIMA has been amazing. Everyone has been welcoming to me and my family. I have trained in Hapkido for 6 years. I felt stagnate and wanted to continue to learn. Professor Tricoli has taught me so much in the few months that I have been here. He has pushed me and helped me continue to grow. I look forward to learning more.
I am new to RIMA and am a big fan of this gym. It has a family feel and Master Tricoli and the other trainers are very passionate about what they do.
You can come in with zero experience (like myself) and never feel overwhelmed. They break everything down and offer a variety of mixed martial arts to fit your life and fitness goals.
A very welcoming environment. I spoke with the owner who was very polite and knowledgeable. Also throughly explained different types of martial arts classes the gym offers. I highly recommend this gym. The instructors are extremely friendly and helpful.
Nice environment and the staff is very professional. Great work out space and I love the basketball court. Excellent way to lose weight and burn lots of calories. Instructors are patient and make sure you learn the proper techniques. I also like the hours of operation. You should check it out!

Fantastic teachers and very kind staff! John is raw but professional and you can tell he knows his stuff! The teachers are extremely energetic and patient particularly when dealing with the younger kids, but they still keep things orderly and disciplined...vs other places where the instructors can't keep a handle on the kids. A great experience all around and highly recommended!
Raleigh Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai facility is top-notch . Professor John was amazing to learn from. Very very knowledgeable on jiu jitsu Concepts and techniques. I came to Raleigh from out of town and professor John was very welcoming.
My two boys truly enjoy their time, they're excited to go weekly. Plus, it helps enforce discipline for use in every aspect of their lives. The prices are reasonable, especially with having two children in routine activities. My spouse and I are considering to join as well, due to the ease and the professionalism of Sensi John and the entire staff. I recommend everyone to give it a shot!
I love this place, my little brother and I have been training here for a little over two years now. Instructors are nice and new comers are always welcomed with open arms!
