Shorty’s is the first ever Jiu-Jitsu place where I started about two years ago and could not have found a better place. I was surprised how the instructor approached to me with full of dignity and respect. I thought the martial arts would be brutal and tough, but the atmosphere was warm that treats individuals as a family. Do not hesitate to try the first week free trial! Shorty’s is the great academy not only training hard physically, but also growing your mentality, such as being humble, learning attitude, and being perseverance. But the most important thing is that you will just love this place!

I wish I had walked into Shorty’s much sooner because this place is fantastic! Mike is incredibly knowledgeable, extremely attentive to students, and most of all - an awesome person. His instruction is top notch. He emphasizes important details and explains rationale for positioning. The warm and supportive community makes for a great vibe while offering a range of training styles. This is an exceptional place - check it out!

This gym is awesome! All of the instructors are extremely skilled and passionately dedicated in training anyone who walks through the door. You are definitely getting more than your money’s worth. The welcoming attitude from everyone in the gym made my experience that much better.

Shortys is amazing! Mike (owner) is a thoughtful, friendly BJJ instructor. This is a really solid community, everyone is friendly, no big egos, everyone comes to have fun and learn BJJ.

Dont be fooled by the outside look of the building, Mike is running an amazing school. Hes an incredible instructor, and everyone that goes to class is always willing to help. If you want to learn BJJ I cant recommend this place more!

Dropped in for an open mat, everyone was very welcoming and a pleasure to train with. I would definitely recommend this gym to anyone in the area.

Excellent training and atmosphere. Love training here when I get the chance.

No nonsense instruction combined with friendly and clean atmosphere. Good mix of black, brown, purple, blue and white belts with fun atmosphere and highly qualified teachers

Sideco and Mike are both experts and very welcoming. This is a great place to begin jiu jitsu or for people at any level looking for a good place to roll. Since it’s a smaller environment you get expert attention from the instructors which can be a problem at larger schools. Their schedule is great for students or anyone working full time. There’s always a slot to train. Definitely check it out.

The is an awesome gym. The instructors are highly qualified and the gym has a great atmosphere.

Excellent black belt and brown belt teachers with quality jiu jitsu and judo instruction. Clean, friendly environment and great location. Let’s get this work baby

As the one of the first students at this school, I have to admit it is definitely one of the best place to check out for any one looking to learn BJJ or already has a comprehensive knowledge of the art. As someone who already has their Purple belt I went in with a fear that everyone would be out to get me lol, in fact it was the exact opposite and they have been more than welcoming and asisting me plug up the holes within my game and move forward on my journey in BJJ!

Great gym! Female friendly and coach Sideco Honorio is welcoming to students of all belt levels. If you want to compete or just want to get fit, his vast expertise in Jiu Jitsu, Judo & MMA will have you achieving your goals. If youre in Philadelphia go check it out, you wont be disappointed!
