My kids always enjoy going to class. They have learned so much from Master Phil and have fun as well.

I used to go to Theodorou jiu jitsu before they shut down the academy and I’m gonna miss going to jiu jitsu but I have to say they taught me a lot I ranked up to a blue belt and they made learning martial arts fun (it is anyways) and if you guys read this I’m Gabe

About six months ago, I rediscovered Total Body Shaping. I had been a member many years ago and I had amazing results. It was only natural to come back. I love the program for so many reasons. I feel that it is appropriately challenging no matter what level you are at. You have the ability to modify any exercise if you happened to have an injury. You develop meaningful relationships with other members who are just as proud of your successes as you are. Phil, who is knowledgeable and supportive, will guide you every step of the way no matter how big or small your goals happen to be. But most importantly, if you are willing to put in the work, you will get seriously noticeable results.

The Theodorou Academy produces real results. Attending this gym is about investing in yourself and living a lifestyle that YOU are happy with. Phil is extremely motivating and each class routine varies continuing to challenge your strength, mentally and physically. The techniques are thoroughly explained, so I feel confident and comfortable during my workouts. The cardio and weight training combination is much more challenging and rewarding than a typical weight training routine. I am thankful for all of my results and love how motivated I’ve become because of Theodorou Academy!

I started taking the total body shaping classes about 8 months ago!!! This class is GREAT! There is a perfect mix of weight training and cardio. The instructor(owner) is great. He cares about your progress and is knowledgeable about nutrition. He knows how far he can push me and he holds me accountable when I start to slack off!!!! The class times are very convenient. There are always plenty of weights for everyone.

I’m 52 years old, overweight and very out of shape. I joined the Body Shaping class which ranges from beginner to “very fit” and with people of all ages. The instructor modified the exercises for me so I’d be able to keep up and still benefit from the activities. We discuss weight loss goals and dietary plans to help get results. Phil (the instructor) is very active in this journey. He frequently texts me to check on my progress and this helps keep me accountable. I’ve tried this on my own in the past and have always failed. To be honest, I hate exercising! But the group class setting introduced me to some great people which makes it easier to stay focused on my goals. I highly recommend the class/experience!

I love the total body shaping program! I’ve tried so many different workout classes over the years and I’ve always become bored after awhile. And just going to the gym is never enough motivation for me. I honestly feel that everyone in the class motivates each other and there is so much camaraderie and good energy that makes you want to keep going.

Amazing workout day in and day out.. I look forward to going each day to have my heart rate raised and calories burned. Great family atmosphere and amazing trainer who can help not only with the workouts but with diet as well.. Thank you Phil for kicking my butt, pushing each day and helping me get into shape!

My daughter, co-workers and I took a 6 week womens self-defence class which was informative, fun and physical. Our instructors could not have been nicer or more helpful! We had a terrific experience which has made us more aware of our abilities and inspired us to become stronger in body and mind. They pushed us out of our comfort zones and we had fun the whole time!

Total Body Shaping is the most fun gym you could join. As a longtime member I have thoroughly enjoyed this gym for many years. Friendly, polite and family orientated staff makes going to the gym for a workout a very pleasurable experience. The TBS workout is a 50 minute class that combines strength training and cardio 5 days a week for a 10 week period. There is an assortment of class times to suit your needs weather you need mornings, afternoons or evenings. Once you settle on the time that fits your schedule you look forward to going every day. And because it is a specific time, you don’t make the excuses like “I’ll go after dinner” or “I’m too tired, I’ll go in the morning”. Everyone is welcome. The trainers are fun and the members are very nice so there is no need to feel intimidated. After a few classes you feel like family. Different instructors daily bring a dynamic and energetic atmosphere to each class that totally makes you enjoy each workout. If you are looking for motivation this is best gym by far and at the end of the 10 week session you definitely want to continue and stay with it. And I have made many friendships from the TBS classes, the instructors and students support and encourage each other. It really has been a very enjoyable experience.

I highly recommend the Total Body Shaping program at the Centereach location. The Instructor is amazing-making everyone feel comfortable and modifying all the workouts to fit your individual needs. The place is always clean and the staff is always friendly. If you are looking to get in the best shape of your life, then check this place out!

Great gym! Plenty of equipment, never wait for a machine. Pool, basketball court, punching bags, spin room, classes, etc. Staff is great!!

Extremely welcoming environment for beginners. Fosters learning, builds confidence and allows you to challenge yourself in a comfortable atmosphere. The instructors are highly qualified and give individual attention while the techniques are taught. Highly recommended!

Great Place! Great instructor! Some of the most kindest and welcoming people there, and lost 40 pounds!!

My son started at Theodorou a little over a year ago. He could be very shy and didnt want to really play any sports. I figured I would try Jiu Jitsu to get him to overcome that and also build his confidence.Well he has made a lot of new friends, is more outgoing and loves going. And is now going to try basketball too!Master Phil is great with the kids and really gets them involved and interested. And for a parent its wonderful to see your child thrive.

My son has been attending Theodorou Academy of JuiJitsu for the past 2 years now and I couldnt be any happier with the results both personally and physically. He has learned respect and self discipline. Its helping him academically while also teaching how to defend himself against a larger adversary by using leverage & proper technique. Master Phil is incredible with his students. I look forward to having my child build his self confidence and mastering this sport by getting his black belt.

All three of our boys train at this martial arts school. Our oldest son has been training for more than 10 years and has become a junior instructor under the guidance of this highly trained staff. Our children have found an activity they truly love thanks to the dedication of all the instructors at Theodorou Academy of Jiu Jitsu!

Excellent program for children. My sons been going since age 3 1/2. 3 years now. lm very happy with the discipline, respect, as well as the self defense training hes learned.

Ive been coming here for more than two years and everyone is pretty much like family now.The total body shaping instructors are fantastic and they always push you to work harder so you get the results you want. They listen to any concerns you might have. Training Jiu jitsu here is also great, Ive learned valuable skills to protect myself and gained so much confidence in the process. In addition, just about everyone in class is great to train with.

Great work out, while you learn techniques and real life scenarios for self defence.

This is a good Japanese jiu jitsu gym. I was originally looking for a Brazilian jiu jitsu gym but I joined here for about 6 months. I definitely learned a lot and had fun. Master phil definitely knows what hes doing, and after training judo and bjj now I know the techniques he teaches are pretty good. He seems to be great with kids.Theodouro academy is a great place to learn some striking, grappling and self defense techniques. I wish I could train judo, bjj and here but unfortunately thats too much time and money.The best part of Theodouro Academy is the live sparring. Both boxing and grappling. Its extremely enjoyable and useful. I miss having so many people to box with.His students are primarily young adults which isnt too great for older adults, as you wanna train with other adults. Also, class was usually cut a few minutes short for the total body shaping class, which felt like they were being given priority. Those are the only reasons Im giving it 4/5 stars.I had no problem cancelling my membreship. They asked for 2 weeks notice, i gave them 2 weeks notice, and they never billed me again.

My son, loves going to jiu-jitsu here. Professional and friendly. I would highly recommend theodorou jiu-jitsu

The most fun ever!!!! Nerf night is awesome!!! Perfect night for the family. Up next.. dodgeball!

My son has been attending Theodorou Academy for about 7 years now. He started as little ninja at 4 years old and has advanced through the years wonderfully under the guidance of a truly patient, powerful, and fun instructor Master Phil. He and the other amazing senseis have taught him so much more than just self defense skills. He has learned discipline, focus and teamwork to name a few. I would highly recommend Theodorou Academy to anyone looking to learn jiu-jitsu!

Ive been training jiu-jitsu at Theodorous for the past 10 years. Master Phil is an excellent instructor, his patience and teaching methods makes every class a great experience. It is a pleasure to train with all involved and to be a part of this school. Everyone is very friendly, respectful of one another and has a true passion for the art. Jiu-jitsu is great for all ages including kids! It is an excellent way to teach them discipline as well as self defense.

Best workout !!!! Only workout I have ever stayed with and continue to enjoy!!! Highly recommend!!!!!

Can anyone tell me what the cost or program options would be for a 7 year old?
