This is no martial arts boutique with aisles of pretty merchandise for purchase that don't actually help your game; Instead, they are all about the arts itself, focusing on technique and condition. The no-frills motif makes reminds me of my own living room -- it is VERY easy to feel at home here.
Upon moving to Glen Burnie, I looked up all the local BJJ schools and found Noel Smith's to be the best. I was recently out of the Military and it was an easy transition as there are not only many active service members and veterans alike, but the instructor himself is a veteran. The school has an inclusive membership that covers Judo taught by a black belt, Maui Thai, Boxing, and even strength and conditioning classes. Everyone is humble and you feel welcome from the get go. If one is so inclined, you could even train 7 days a week as someone is always there. Also the purple and brown belts are always staying after class to drill the techniques of the day and/ or answer questions. Private lessons are available also. There is also a kids class full of students, as is the adults. Many also participate in the local competitions and are very supportive as well. I'm very pleased to be part of the team. By the way, parking is great as there is a free parking garage on the same block.
Ive known Noel Smith, his staff, and the people who train here for quite a few years. All are great, understanding, and willing to teach. An extremely welcoming place to come, no matter your prior experience level. A great location for kids and parents alike to come, learn, and train.
Students young and old love this school! For good reason ...
I'm so happy we found this school. This place has become a second home to my family. Noel and everyone of his kids classes' instructors are amazing. They work great with kids (even young ones like mine) helping them focus and learn. They really know how to positively motivate them to improve and give them confidence. My kids love going to their classes. And for me it's been a great place to workout, learn selfdefense, and be warmly accepted as a beginner. Happy to be a part of the Noel Smith BJJ family!
Be prepared to work hard, & be prepared to feel the results.
The BJJ training at Noel Smith's is top notch and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. He has so many upper belts who help out with different styles of their own, you'll develop quickly regardless of your gender, age or body type. Caution: It's VERY addicting!!
The quality of the martial arts they present is truly world class, with a number of students and staff competing regularly at every level, and doing well. They get quality instruction, broken down to the smallest steps so that even the greenest beginners can pick it up quickly and easily, and presented broadly enough so that even the most advanced can benefit as well.
My son loved the kids Summer Camp program this year and begged to attend the after school care program when school starts up.
the Noel Smith BJJ experience is way more than just the typical studio or martial arts parlor. It is a community of it's own. All staff and students alike are extremely friendly. Newcomers are welcomed into the flock & made to feel as though they have belonged all along.
