1701 Quincy Ave #26, Naperville, IL
BJJ Lab in Naperville has one of the deeper black-belt rosters among independent suburban academies. The coaching team includes second-degree black belt John Brooks, Army veteran and black belt James McClughen, third-degree black belt Rodrigo Dini, and Frank Beran, whose background includes Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, competitive kickboxing, karate and a career as a police sergeant. Bill Brooks adds another unusual mix with black belts in both BJJ and Kajukenbo. The academy’s current program includes Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, fundamentals, kids training, wrestling, MMA and boxing-related work. With multiple senior instructors from different martial arts and professional backgrounds, the school can expose students to more than one technical lens without requiring them to leave the academy. For grapplers around Naperville and Aurora, BJJ Lab stands out most for coaching depth. The roster includes military, law-enforcement, kickboxing and multi-discipline experience alongside senior BJJ rank, making the academy more distinctive than a school whose identity depends on one head professor.
