My son loves it. I love watching him learn. Coach Durfee treats his students with respect and expects them to be respectful in return. After trying various other martial arts this one resonates with my son. Something real every class. Coach also has a great sense of humor that adds a lot of fun to the classes. Sarah runs the business side of the show flawlessly. Thumbs up all the way around.

Amazing place. We’ve seen such huge improvements in my stepson’s behavior since we started him at Stonecoast. The coaches are all amazing with the kids and we love that the older kids help out with the littles. We recommend Stonecoast to everyone.

Professor Durfee goes by coach for the kids, and his school is fantastic! It is starting to draw big crowds for many classes. Private lessons are easy to book as well. Finding a sport is really hard for many kids, but the emphasis on teamwork and taking care of training partners has been fantastic! Lots of family events and a strong sense of community for parents is a great bonus. Give this school a try

It has been a great learning experience for my 7 year old son. He is excited to attend class and its a great workout! Great opportunity for any child, with a free class you have nothing to lose.

Professor Shaun does an amazing job with the Kids Program at Stonecoast! As a life long martial artist, I am incredibly impressed with his Coaching. He has a special way of connecting with his students, allowing them to learn and have fun all the while maintaining discipline. If you are in the Portland Area and want your child to have confidence, discipline, and focus - check out Stonecoast BJJ for Kids!

These classes are life lessons: coach durfee is a force of nature that the kids adore, and adults are in awe of. it all hinges on love and respect, and he’s the kind of teacher kids will remember for the rest of their lives. an amazing program!

This has been such a gift for my sons. I have seen such a shift in their level of positivity and their confidence. The coaches are both stern and inspiring and were quickly able to connect with my kiddos

This has been far the most rewarding program for kids. Sinse my daughter started a few months ago,the change in her is remarkable. She has more confidence in her self,she can walk tall with a smile on her face. She can walk through those stonecoast doors and feel the love and respect from all the coaches and her teammates. Coach Durfee teaches his kids to love and respect one another,and most importantly to love and respect themselves, And SAFETY first.. I highly recommend Stonecoast for Kids..

I cant say enough good things about Stonecoast, I LOVE that Professor Durfee weaves in social and emotional skills into the classes. One of the best parenting decisions I have made has been bringing my daughter here.

Of all of the extra circulars we have done from Swimming to Gymnastics to Dance to team sports, nothing can compare to the experience that my kids have had over only three months at Stonecoast. I personally did Karate and TaeKwonDo when I was younger but nothing compares to Stonecoasts method of training JiuJitsu. Also you as a parent will be shocked at how great this is for teaching actual self defense to disable a threatening person without hurting them. Coaches are great, the kids are great, value is great, the facility is great. Love this place.

Enrolling my son into Coach Durfees classes was the best choice I ever made. He is a great teacher. If you are looking for a positive place and experience for your child(ren) where technique, discipline and self confidence are an every day experience, stop in and check it out!

Great place, Ive been going for years. I would definitely recommend this to everyone.

Stonecoast Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for Kids is an amazing place. Coach Durfee provides a comprehensive jiu jitsu experience complete with the teaching of life lessons, building of resiliency, promoting humility and respect, along with providing the highest quality jiu jitsu and MMA Instruction. Stonecoast has made a tremendous impact on my kids, and we are very grateful to have found Coach Durfee and to be a part of the Stonecoast family!
