Claim this gymMountain State BJJ in South Charleston, West Virginia, operates under the guidance of Professors Scott Layton and Teddie Malone, both black belts awarded by Saulo and Xande Ribeiro. With over two decades of experience each, Layton and Malone bring a strong emphasis on practical Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu rooted in the Ribeiro Brothers’ approach. The academy also integrates defensive tactics training tailored for military and law enforcement professionals, reflecting its instructors’ certifications in this specialized field. The curriculum is structured to develop fundamentals in adult practitioners through gi classes focused on solid technique and positional control. Kids train separately in gi classes designed to build foundational skills appropriate for their age group. Women have access to dedicated classes that address their specific training needs. Open mat sessions are regularly scheduled to provide students with additional time to drill or spar beyond formal classes. Competitive-minded students can participate in combined team classes that focus on preparing for tournaments. Mountain State BJJ maintains a private training environment with drop-in attendance generally limited to members of affiliated Ribeiro or Six Blades teams. This structure supports focused instruction and a consistent learning atmosphere aligned with the academy’s goals. The school’s location at 1101 Jefferson Road serves as a hub for BJJ practitioners who value disciplined training under experienced coaches with strong ties to the Ribeiro lineage.
