Great gym great people. Andrew has been around for a long time and has alot of experience. Lots of students at every level, including some very high level black belts. Recommend dropping in.
I trained here for years, then went off to train at Tristar in Montreal. Ive since trained at a lot of gyms, and none of them were as inviting as Cascade. If you are looking for a community of great people who will invite you in and make you part of the family, this is the gym for you.
Professor Andrew does an awesome job creating a safe training environment. We train hard and get after it, but the emphasis is always on the safety of your training partner. Really love this place and would highly suggest it to people of all levels.
Nearly a year ago I walked into Cascade, and it was one of the best decisions I made. I attended a morning session and immediately felt welcomed. I could sense the positive vibes from the people in the class; starting with the instructor. That same quality/energy remained no matter which class I attended. Once I finally met professor Andrew, I could see how that vibe trickled down throughout the school. All the instructors are patient, great attention to detail, and very knowledgeable about the art. If you’re looking to start Jiu Jitsu, like me, one class here and you’ll be hooked.
Moved here from Texas and needed a new school. 2 years later and I’m still going here. Professor Andrew is excellent and coach Kyle on morning classes is great too. I’d highly recommend this school for anybody wanting to get into BJJ.
Very good food, cooked right and nice portions.
A great gym with a lot of experience! Highly recommend.
Great academy, welcoming for both new students and experienced practitioners. Great instruction and friendly vibe. My only complaint is I dont live closer and cant visit as often as Id like!
First time doing Jiu Jitsu! Everyone was incredibly accommodating and willing to help teach you. Very comfortable environment. Highly recommend! Definitely going again!
The family has been coming here for over 4.5-years now (to include my 5-year old for over a year now). Professor Andrew and his wife,Ms Amy, do a great job with all ages and I feel we are all learning at a SAFE/consistent pace for kids and adults. They give the right amount of push for the goals were seeking. If you want to compete, theyre there for you. If you dont want to compete, theyre there for you. Its a positive environment where fellow students are supportive without big attitudes. A place where you can train at your intensity level, but can step up that intensity at any time. We CHOOSE to continue our training here for these and many more reasons..... see you soon.
This place will kick your tail every day and leave you wanting to come back for more. The instructors are awesome, down to earth, normal guys, who also happen to be lethal martial artists. If you are looking for a gym to call home, this is it!
Dropped in for a class from out of town. Gym was clean, and well kept. Professors made instructions clear and concise and showed excellent knowledge the moves they were teaching. Will definitely drop back in next time I’m in town.Bottom line, nice dojo, knowledgeable professors and extremely welcoming. Much respect.
Great training with a real chill atmosphere.
This is a wonderful environment to get started in martial arts. Been thinking about it for a while and in glad I found this place. Everyone here is nice and helpful. Im hooked.
The culture of this gym; set by the owner, Prof Andrew Solheim is one of peace and humility. The place is full of really nice killers that are helpful and humble to everyone on the team. A true team environment has been cultivated by the leadership of all different belts. Ive been training at this gym semi-regularly for about 3 months, and it already feels like home when I walk in. Everett is blessed to have this gem.
Good high level training. Started because I was lookin for something less boring than lifting weights. This is so fun and the time flies by. Thanks Andrew and team.
Love this place and you will too. Been doing morning classes with Kyle who is a technical wizard, and the classes are always fun.
Very convenient location in north Everett. Best BJJ gym Ive been to in Snohomish county. Very low pressure, but high level training. Seems great for experts and beginners.
Best Jiu-Jitsu School, Teachers and people you can find in the North West ✊
I just love this place. Ive been coming here for about a year and a half, and theres a real sense of community and camaraderie here. Everyone gets along, and everyone seems focused on helping everyone learn. I have been in Combat Sports for about 10 years, and due to medical issues related to mma muay thai, I am no longer able to take trauma to my face. I walked into this gym because it was both convenient, and I really like the idea of being able to work my way up a belt system. From day one, I was invited openly into the fold. The students and the teachers are both genuine and funny. The training is great, mixing technique and live sparring. Ive also gotten to watch over some of the Juniors / kids classes, and they are producing some real talent there. This place is a total gem, and I look forward to every day I get to train here.
Super great gym. Friendly staff and fun environment.
