This gym has everything I need. I signed up because it's close to my work and has a steam room and a jacuzzi, which I love after a workout. The showers are nice and they provide towels and all the toiletries. I've never seen it overly crowded, at least not on the days that I'm there. I've recently seen some new staff members who are super friendly and actually smile when you walk in, as opposed to some I've seen in the past. And, they validate parking!

My son began taking jiu jitsu classes last April. We have seen his self esteem rise up. He is more confident and has matured a lot. The coaches are great. They are teaching him discipline and hopes to be an overall good athlete. The gym is local and very family friendly. In addition, the gym is always hosting family events. Highly recommend it.

Love this place. Great coaches, great staff. Awesome conditioning area, which is rare for a BJJ school.

The staff is very friendly and personable. Classes are fun and always different. The trainers will kick your a$$...this isn't for the faint of heart...unless you're serious about getting into shape (or just want to throw your money away) I wouldn't recommend it. I'm pretty thin but recommend 3-4x a week for results (in my case strength and toning).

I do the personal training with Monique Selva. Twice a week. Its a clean facility with one one focus, to work your body. She handles me different than she would handle another client. Each session is designed to focus on areas of my body that will benefit me. Ive worked out with her for three months, dropped 35 pounds , become stronger and flexible. I would reccomend this training for anyone who wants to invest in them selves.

I've been training here for over 4 years and haven't looked back. I started brand spanking new as a white belt in jiu jitsu and through my consistency and coaching here at Selva I am currently a purple belt and competing.
This facility is worth every penny, they give you literature on what it takes and the type of training needed to become a black belt in jiu jitsu as well as to compete at a high level. I had no martial arts prior to my jiu jitsu career except for wrestling. The instructors spoke to my style and work ethic which gave me the opportunity to be a 2x IBBJF national champ in jiu jitsu.
They also offer MMA, Muay Thai and Women's Only Boot Camp. I Can speak on behalf of the women's only boot camp I did it for 60 days and lost 15 lbs, it gave me the discipline to be able to loose the weight and compete in BJJ.

After spending some time here, I can safely say that this place is an excellent gym to learn either Jiu Jitsu or Muay Thai properly. If your a beginner or out of shape, i recommend the fundamentals classes. No matter what fitness level you are at, it is a great workout depending on how hard you push yourself. Sparring is, mostly, only done in the gold team class. This class you have to be invited to, by taking enough fundamental classes, or you have proof that you have prior experience in the art. At the end of every month there is an exam based on the techniques that were being taught for belt stripes or a final prerequisite for admission to a belt promotion test. It is a family friendly environment as many children take classes before the adult classes begin. The people are very friendly and try to help you out as you learn. I definitely recommend Selva BJJ.

I have been training here for just over 2 years and the experience has been great. I understand there are many different gyms out there with different styles of training that I have read about but the way Selva is run seems to be pretty effective.
The way the gym was run compared to now is totally different and is able to cater to both beginners and veterans. Workouts are tough but it really depends on how hard you push yourself. There may be times where it can be a little hectic around the gym when competition seasons start but you can bet on the gym getting right back on track as soon as its over.
