I have been in BJJ for the past 20 years. I have been a member of many outstanding gyms and this is no exception. The culture at this gym under the leadership and direction of the head instructors is world class. There is no shortage of BJJ facilities in Az, but if you want a safe place to train, heavy on the technique side and enter into a welcoming culture then I highly recommend Gracie AZ Gilbert BJJ.

I searched for a gym for a long time before I decided to try out Gracie AZ Gilbert. I’m so glad I decided to start training at this school. It has literally changed my life. The instructors are top notch black belts, very knowledgeable, and set the tone for a great environment. The owner, Mr. Sandoval is a great guy who truly cares about all of his students and is the type of guy who’d give you the shirt off his back. They will guide you and teach you based on how you want to progress. They’re not pushy but they teach proper technique. They encourage competition but don’t force it on students. It’s definitely a personal choice and I’m glad they’ve been behind me when I’ve competed. All the students get along and help build each other up. Definitely no egos. Makes it a great place to train. If you are looking for a great school, look no further. Less

This program is awesome, great instructors, and a very positive environment. The instructors are knowledgeable and teach in different learning styles. Which is very helpful as I am brand new to this world. It is always very welcoming and everyone supports each other no matter there level or how long they have been there. Less

If you're looking to get some regular exercise or to compete actively in the jiu jitsu circuit, I highly recommend checking out this gym. Not only is the training top-notch, but the environment is also wonderful and welcoming. From the moment you step in, you feel like part of the family. I've met some of my closest friends at this gym, and I truly feel like we've become a family. The camaraderie and support from fellow students and instructors make for a fantastic training experience. The credit for this positive atmosphere goes to Mr. Sandoval, who has created an environment where everyone feels included and motivated to improve. His leadership and dedication to his students are truly admirable, and it's clear that he genuinely cares about each person's progress and well-being. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete, this gym is the perfect place to train and grow as a martial artist. I cannot recommend it enough! Less
