My three kids, my wife and I have all (and do) taken Jiu Jitsu lessons from Mark! Seriously cool dude with a gift for teaching and demonstrating to kids and adults alike! Killer opportunity and great location. Mark has a knack for creating an amazing atmosphere of learning with a chill vibe. Can not recommend enough! Lovely soul and lovely place!

My wife and I have been bringing our 3 kids to West Side Jiu Jitsu for about 6 months now. The instructors are awesome with all of the kids, they get the kids engaged in healthy exercise and the workout gets them sweaty and tired. Mark is an awesome teacher and I cannot say enough about how great this place is. Bring your kids or your adults there are classes for all ages and abilities.

I've trained at 20+ martial arts gyms over the past couple of decades and I've got to say that West Side Jiu Jitsu is one of the best. The head instructor Mark is a very clear teacher with a lot of knowledge and one of the friendliest personalities. His teaching is reflected in his students, who are all very welcoming and friendly, and also skilled and hard workers. Great place to learn Jiu Jitsu, and a great place to help prep for competition.

I LOVE West Side! You should be training Jiu Jitsu, and you should be doing it at West Side. It's like my second family, except we're not mad when we're choking each other! Mark is a great instructor and the people training there are awesome.

I was in town for vacation and I dropped-in to West Side BJJ Ogden for an open mat session. The crew was very welcoming and I had a number of rolls with every level of experience. If I'm in Ogden again, I will definitely swing by for another training session! Thank you!

My child has been going to West Side for the last 7 years and still looks forward to going every day. Mark Johnson is great at teaching the kids Jiu-Jitsu as well as making it fun for them. I’d recommend West Side to anyone who is interested in learning Jiu-Jitsu at all levels.

West Side Jiu Jitsu is a fantastic academy. Everyone is so friendly and the teachers are 100% world class! Each class goes over fundamental techniques that cater to new students as well as upper division. The atmosphere is great and everyone is quick to bring you into the family.

West Side is a great facility for Jiu Jitsu and fitness. The atmosphere is welcoming, never intimidating. And Mark is not only an excellent jiu jitsu instructor, he is also great with kids. Our son Jackson loves the classes at West Side and his time there has increased his confidence and skill. Highly recommended for beginners and experienced alike.
