What Our Students Say

Real testimonials from our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu family

"I'm 37 and have been a member at Cornerstone for two years now. I came in at 260 lbs and out of shape... I'm currently competing at 215 lbs and have won several medals including 1st place in the 2012 NC State Championships. I'm in the best shape of my life."

Billy 2+ Years Experience

"Coach Charles Nunley gives awesome instruction and has a vast knowledge of BJJ and MMA. Coach Charlie does not cater or favor any student over another no matter what their experience is. The new location is great and I love the new mats."

Joey T. 1-3 Years Experience

"What I like about Cornerstone Martial Arts is the instructor's experience and patience. I am a first time student of any type of martial arts. Charlie makes it fun and easy to learn. You will not only get technique and style but history of BJJ."

Daniel New Student

"Best instructors I've had, very knowledgeable and articulate can explain techniques to all levels of students provide great feedback when drilling and a strong sense of community and very welcoming. Will always recommend this place anyone who will listen!"

Jason Figueroa Experienced Student

"I have been to many other schools that taught jiu jitsu and thought I was getting great training. When I started at Cornerstone I was pleasantly surprised to learn all sorts of new takedowns and submissions. I would not go anywhere but here."
