A Place To Roll

A Place To Roll is a jiu-jitsu studio in Valley Springs. We teach youth and adult classes in a mellow environment.

"Train For Skills", not "Train for Toughness" because we all have to work in the morning. I am starting this business because I want a place to roll in my small town. For the last 2.5 years I have been driving an hour each direction for training. I know there are many people locally that would train if they have a local place to roll. I will be the head instructor here while continuing to drive an hour each direction for semi private lessons under a black belt each week.
