Not Your Average Martial Arts Studio

We were excited to learn all about Standard BJJ and how they have gotten where they are today, so we sat down with the owner, Greg Souders.

With over 15 years of experience, Greg is able to get Standard BJJ to stand apart from its competitors thanks to Greg’s style of teaching. He says that he takes a more indifferent approach so that his students can figure out what works best for them individually. He will have conversations with them to make sure they are achieving individual goals. He told us that learning jiu-jitsu creates more opportunity for his students to gain skill acquisition and mastery. Greg works to make things as easy as possible and offers a simple sign-up process, one price, and no contracts.

Building Success Through Word of Mouth

Standard BJJ has earned an incredible reputation, which Greg says is all thanks to word of mouth! He tries to stay visible with SEO (search engine optimization) and social media but does absolutely no paid advertising.

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as Standard BJJ has managed to. We asked if Greg could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what he had to say:

“Just get started and go.”


Congratulations to Standard BJJ for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Greg for taking the time to speak with us!
