Do not sign anything here.Did a 30 trial with a friend. He was mistaken on his trial end date and cancelled the day after the last day of the trial.They charged him $300 even though he had been to a total of 2 classes during the trial and hadn’t been in over two weeks before cancelling. While trying to reason with the owners he was met with a lot of hostility and they said he was lucky they didn’t charge him $600 instead of $300 - for using the gym twice and cancelling 24 hours too late.This is a locally owned business and the owner could very easily just decide not burn bridges instead of acting like some corporate machine with an impenetrable refund policy.Fortunately my friend told me about his experience in time for me to cancel immediately. I still had a week left, but if was going to join after that trial I’m sure not going to anymore. I would never do business with someone like this, nor recommend them to anyone else.Now queue the owner replying to this review, calling me a liar and justifying the fine print on his contract stipulations just like he’s done with all the other people here who’ve said the same thing.I don’t care if you’re within your legal rights John, it’s bad business. People don’t like dealing with businesses like you. No amount of legal jargon will change that.

I showed up nine months ago with zero BJJ experience. Not only have I progressed quickly thanks to the phenomenal coaching, but it's helped me adjust my focus in my professional and personal life for the better. If you're looking to actually change and improve your life, I strongly suggest you step onto the mats with us.

John and the team have been outstanding!I experienced a knee injury a few years ago and wasn’t certain if ever make it back to training. I found John’s gym and gave rolling another go. John listened to my story and showed that he truly cared about helping get back and helped ease me back into the fold. I’ve been training the last 3 months and my knee has never felt better and my confidence is back!John and everyone single person I’ve met at the gym all have great attitudes and genuinely want to help others out with improving their game. The culture at the gym is very laid back and inviting. I’ve experienced other schools around Austin and John’s is truly a cut above.Highly highly highly recommend John’s gym to anyone thinking about starting to train or just looking for a new gym.Damn good Brazilian jiu-jitsu and a fun friendly atmosphere!!!

I have been at John's gym now for about 4 months. John and the front office staff are amazing. They were super flexible to my specific situation and they always greet you with a smile. The coaching staff is great as well as the people who train there. Everyone is so helpful and the utilization of technology to keep everyone informed and in the loop is simple but super effective. My experience here has been nothing but positive. Thank you John, I'm having a blast training with you guys!!! - David Q.

This is our 3rd gym for Jiujitsu for my kids and it is by far THE BEST one we found and we are here to stay!! The kids love it here and all the coaches are fantastic. John is very knowledgeable and knows how to teach the kids really well. I am so happy we found this place and after only a few months, we already feel like we are part of this gym's family. Don't look further, this is the best place is town and my kids have learn a lot more here. Quality teaching is hard to find.

I've been going for a little over 6 months now for boxing and I feel like it's time for an honest review. This place has far exceeded any expectations I had. I leave better every time because the coaches really focus on individuals and help get rid of bad habits. If you show up, you will become great. I look forward to staying and getting into their other classes. This place is the bomb! Thank y'all

The gym is decently sized and they have pretty new equipment/mats. I went to this gym for three months and would have continued going. My only negative is that I would have liked to have had some backing and been able to fight under their brand. Anyways, the coaches will make you better and the team was fun to be a part of.

I moved to Austin not knowing anyone and not knowing the first thing about Brazilian jiu-jitsu. I was a former wrestler and I was looking for a good workout. I found a place where I have an incredible workout and a place where it's more of a family then a gym. I have been training for over 1 year and I still wake up planning my day around going to noon class. If you can relate to the former me ((A 40 something/ X athlete and better days were in my 20's ..)) then come to my gym.. I am in better shape today then 15 years ago. If your not finding results or bored of your gym this will be your new home. I have a new purpose and motivation to wake up every morning and train.
