Checkmat Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Riverview

Just recently moved to the area, and decided to try this gym. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the instructors are very knowledgeable. In addition, the gym itself is well maintained and clean. I’m looking forward to continuing my training here.

I've had the opportunity of taking a couple BJJ classes with Jeremy teaching the main technique under the eye of his black belt professor, and I have to say he's a really good coach. He's very patient, understanding, and communicates very well the concepts and techniques that are being taught I also appreciate the genuineness. If you have a chance to come check out the gym, I implore you to give it a go. You may find more than what you're looking for, perhaps a community you didn't realize you wanted or needed. It starts from the top, and the top is as good as they come.

Professor Jeremy made it known to me when I first started at the gym, that we are a family and this is our home. He teaches us that there are more things to learn in Jiu Jitsu than guards and submissions, that there are lessons and philosophies we can apply to everything you do. We as a family treat everyone with kindness and respect with respect on and off the mats. The environment is great for practitioners of all levels, and the workouts are absolutely savage. I’m proud to be a part of the family.

I’m not sure who will see this post, but I wanted to tell anyone who looks up this Jiu Jitsu school that this is Exactly the kind of environment I recommend to anyone who wants to learn the art without being judged or looked down on in any way shape or fashion. The men and women at Checkmat Riverview, smart, polite, and humble. It makes it easy to fit in with the class no matter your skill level. The instructors are so patient, and as a beginner that patience is much needed and appreciated. Thank you

I just started attending classes and Jeremy and the rest of the crew have made me feel really welcomed. As a newbie, they have taken the time to work with and motivate me. It has been over a year and a half since I actively did BJJ, and I need a lot of work. Since joining this gym I feel highly motivated to get back on track and continue training to become better.
