A message from our owner, Bill Jones.

Are you a parent, looking for some backup teaching your child about discipline and respect and personal courage?

Or are you an adult; looking for an amazing workout that’s not boring like the gym, and will give you powerful self defense at the same time?

Then Gracie Jiu-Jitsu taught at Top Level Martial Arts is the answer for you. 

Since 2010, Top Level Martial Arts has helped thousands of people with those exact problems. 

I’ve seen kids come in who couldn’t stand still. By the time they were done with their training here, they understood the value of discipline and focus. Shy kids, who were afraid to raise their hands in class at school have gone on to be outgoing leaders in their grades. 

 

Our adult members have shed pounds, grown more confident, and learned how to protect themselves and their families. 

This is why I have made the mission of Top Level Martial Arts “To present Gracie Jiu-Jitsu as the tool for improving lives in our community.”

My name is Bill Jones, the owner and Head Instructor here at TLMA! And I am personally inviting you to try out jiu-jitsu and see how it can help you and your family, as it’s done for so many before you.

About the instructors at
Top Level Martial Arts.

Top Level Martial Arts is a Full Time Jiu-Jitsu Facility. This means that we have classes all day, every day. This makes things way easier for you. We know your schedule is busy and that’s why we have gone through painstaking measures to train an entire instructor core!

Every instructor at Top Level Martial Arts has:

  • Passed CPR, First Aid, and AED certifications
  • Earned a minimum of 2 stripe Blue Belt in Jiu-Jitsu (over 400 hours of training) to teach our kids program.
  • Earned a minimum of 2 stripe Purple Belt in Jiu-Jitsu (over 800 hours of training) to teach our adult program. 
  • Completed an intensive 40 hour instructor training program
  • Undergoes continuing education to keep up to date on the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to provide you with the best training and experience possible!

About the culture!

The culture of Top Level Martial Arts is unlike anything you’ve experienced in the past. 

Your children will be led by example, not by fear. You won’t find instructors barking orders or treating them as though they just enlisted. Instead, their instructors will meet them on their level and set clear expectations for behavior. Your children will understand that they are accountable for their actions and we’ve found this to be the best way to build children into leaders. 

The adult members describe it as “Cheers!” It’s the place you go to unwind, blow off some steam, meet amazing people, and get a good workout in. Come for the Self Defense and Workout, stay for the people and friendships. It’s not uncommon for members to sit in our lounges or locker rooms and just talk for a while after class.

About our affiliation and lineage

We are proud affiliates of the Pedro Sauer Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Association! Master Pedro Sauer is an 8th Degree Coral Belt under Grand Masters Helio and Rickson Gracie. He was voted “Best of the Best” among Jiu-Jitsu instructors in a worldwide poll in 2005! He’s made it his personal mission to spread the power of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and talk about the positive social benefits that it provides to enrich the lives of those who train!

Bill’s Full Lineage: Helio/Rickson Gracie->  Pedro Sauer-> Tony Rindaldi-> Bill Jones

Jiu Jitsu is for everyone.

These guys are great. They offer great instruction from beginner to advanced. The atmosphere is extremely welcoming. No EGO. They do great classes for adults. I've showed up early and their classes for kids are so well run. The kids are engaged and having a blast. Highly recommend these guys. If you want to get in shape, defend yourself, or are just interested in learning more stop on by.

I spent 6 years in the military and have been training martial arts for over 10 years. A little over a year ago I got out of the Army and my buddy recommended this place for me. I tried it out day 1 and instantly signed up for a year. This last year and half has been some of the best time of my life. I have trained at many different gyms across the world and I feel I'll never goto another one. From day 1 you are considered family. I love this place and will always recommend this place. Love you Top Level!!!

Top Level Martial Arts has very friendly instructors and teaches your children discipline and respect. My son has been going there for over a year and it's worth every cent! Would never think of taking him somewhere else. You become a family there!

I happened to be in town this past week and needed a place to train. The kind folks at Top Level were most welcoming. I appreciate their kindness and open willingness to let me drop in and train with them. Everyone was real cool there and I really enjoyed myself while learning a few new tricks and got to roll around with folks who had their own preferences in style that I haven't felt yet. Everyone has their own specialties. All in all it was a great experience and maybe someday I'll find myself back out that way and we'll get to roll again and feel out our progress in this art we all love. Bless.

I am so grateful a friend shared their experience with us about Top Level. I wasn't sure what Ju Jitsu was. My 5 year old has learned exactly what respect, discipline, integrity, courage, and focus are. We are so grateful because the skills he learns in his Ju Jitsu classes carry over into his home and school life. They even teach and role play about how to deal with a bully. The teachers are wonderful with the kids. You can tell the effectiveness of Mr. Jones and his staff just by observing how his students carry themselves. I highly recommend this school for any child.

I joined because my son wanted me to work out with him. I was skeptical because of my age and being out of shape. The instructors and fellow students made us feel welcome and encouraged us both. I have found that I enjoy it so much I go when my son is in school and then again with my him after school. Great experience, and would recommend it, not only for your kids, but for yourself as well!

It's a great experience for anyone of all ages especially kids. I've seen such a great improvement in Landon K. since he's started, he has come a long ways since day 1 and he's only getting better and better with every class. Very proud of Landon and what he's accomplished. Thank you all

The staff is skilled and great with kids. My nephew loves the training and guidance he has received at TLMA. The owner (Bill Jones) is constantly doing community outreach programs and donates his time and resources to serve the city of Cuyahoga Falls.
