Anchorage Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Great instruction, cleanest gym ever, dramatic improvements in strength and functional movement! The instructors and staff are amazing! Every one of them is a skilled teacher that takes time to give personal feedback even if you're a clueless beginner like myself. The facility is super clean and they are extra diligent about disinfecting between every class. My fitness has improved significantly, I have gained about 6 lbs of muscle in 4 months and just easily beat my neighbor in an arm wrestle this morning (she won the last match we had in July).💪🏽☺

If you want to sign your child up for an excellent class where they can exercise and learn self defense skills, this is it! We started going there with my 5 year old not long ago to build social skills and self esteem and I can tell already we will be there for years. First of all, the monthly price is unbeatable for a 3 day a week class! We called around to other martial arts studios before coming here and the prices are astronomical. One studio wanted $200 for uniform and $1500 prepayment for tuition! Omg. Some studios think parents are made of money. Another thing that we loved about anchorage Brazilian jujitsu is that kids can try few classes for free to see if it’s the right fit. Owners are totally cool about it! No obligation, no pressure. Other studios around charge $19 or so for a try out class, which makes it feel like all they care about is money. Anchorage Brazilian JiJitsu even give kids who are trying a class uniform for the duration of the class so kids can feel like a part of the team. There are 3 class times you can bring your kids (3,4,5 pm) whatever time fits your needs and parents can stay there to watch. There are several skilled and patient teachers during each class. This is an excellent school for kids to go to; no wonder some classes have like 40 kids in them! My child doesn’t want to do anything else anymore, all we hear is “when is jujitsu class?” His self esteem already improved and he is no longer afraid to go to a regular school in fall.Try it! It’s great!:)

This is an awesome school! I’m an old hobbyist, I travel for work and have had the chance to catch a class in a dozen schools internationally and over a dozen schools in the U.S. Stayed in Anchorage on vacation got to try out this school. This school is one of the best I’ve ever seen. The instructors are high level, the facility is great, the atmosphere is cooperative without knuckleheads and egos. As an old guy I would recommend this school to anyone regardless of age or sex.

I've been going to ABJJ for about a month and it's definitely a fantastic gym. I used to train mma and loved it, and tried out a few different gyms before settling on this one.It's a nice and clean facility, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and it's a great place to be at overall.If you're thinking about starting classes and haven't made the jump yet, stop by and try a couple of classes! The other practitioners are friendly to new people and will take the time to help you out if there's something you're confused about. I don't have anything negative to say, ABJJ is great and definitely worth checking out!

My wife and I are Bjj Black belts and travel the country for work . We have visited many gyms in our time traveling and Anchorage Bjj has been one of our favorite schools to train at thus far. Really nice/clean gym , tough team and a very welcoming atmosphere. We were treated like part of the ABJJ family from the beginning. 🙏🏽 …

I just love the whole environment when coming to this gym. Everyone is so welcoming with a big smile and they are all very nice. The coached are truly dedicated to their students and they care about their progress. I highly recommend this jits gym.

Traveled from Houston, TX and trained here for a month. Great gym culture and I really appreciated the program. We focused on a specific position and really spent time to understand specifics and nuances of techniques. I highly recommend them.

Came to town for a few weeks and decided to join my sister at her Muay Thai classes she's been reading about for a year. Now I wish I lived here so I could keep going! I felt very welcome by all the staff and the classes were great. I learned a ton and got an awesome workout.

Best gym in town, with that said, Anchored Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has done fantastic job adapting to the new environment with COVID-19. Daily they have several class offered vothnin the gym and through zoom. Classes available for training no matter where you are. Their on line library for learning is extensive. They are complying to state regulations and it is by far the cleanest gym I've ever been in! They sanitizing the mats between every class. ABJJ is going above and beyond to support students and ther training goals!! The owners Ryder & Christine along with their staff do a great great job. The trainning is top notch along with the a wide range of training partners at all levels. Highly recommend.

Overall, Anchorage BJJ is definitely the best martial arts academy in Alaska. Ryder and all of his instructors create a great atmosphere for learning, training preparation for competition. I have trained at many very high level schools across the country and this school is among the best. The entire family here at the academy are very friendly and welcoming; nobody is out to hurt anyone here and it is a very non intimidating environment. So no matter if your goals are to become a world champion, or just for you or your children to develop confidence and character while learning to defend yourselves, Anchorage BJJ is the place to go!
