TESTIMONIALS

TESTIMONIALS

"Tim Sledd is one of the most dedicated students that I have. He is a
loyal Caique Jiu Jitsu representative and an instructor who pays
attention to the details and to the principles of Jiu Jitsu. I highly
recommend Tim Sledd's classes to anyone who wants to learn Jiu
Jitsu."

-Professor Carlos “Caique” Elias

“I have done MMA for 3 years now. I started working with Tim Sledd
(Small Axe BJJ) just over a year ago. Tim tightened up all my
techniques (positioning, pressure, submissions) and gave me new ones
to suit my game. Tim’s coaching has now become the most
important part of my training. Whenever I have a fight coming up I
call Tim Sledd. Small Axe BJJ is where it is at!!!”
