TAP World Class Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Best place for World Class Jiu Jitsu in Rock Hill SC. We have been involved in the Jiu Jitsu community for 30 years and we can’t say enough good things about Thalys and Abbi at TAP. They are passionate, caring and offer world class instruction. This is the best thing you can do for your child or family. Stop by and experience for yourself.

Since I was a white belt, I've followed and been inspired by the overcoming of life that Professor Thalys achieved on and off the mat. This year, with the help of Thalys, some of my biggest dreams came true, which were to come to the United States, train with you guys at TAP World Class BJJ, and win the New Breed Championship belt…I’m going back to Brazil with a heart full of joy, gratitude, and a 100% mission-accomplished feeling. A big thanks for each one of you guys 🙏🏻❤️

I have 2 children that go to this gym , and they love it! It has improved my littlest’s body control as well as confidence. And it has created new friendships for the both of them.

I am 15 years old, I have been going to Tap for 6 or more months. Everyone here is extremely supportive, I have never been told that there is a limit to my or anyone else's success. Not only do the coaches at Tap give lessons that apply to the sport, but also to everyday life. It has improved my confidence and comfortably in previously uncomfortable situations. I highly recommend giving it a try whether you are a kid, adult, or especially if you are a teenager like me.

Great environment to learn high quality Brazilian jiu jitsu. Prof. Thalys has a lifetime dedicated to the sport with many accomplishments in all belts including world titles. When we talk about kids program, he knows how to make a children enjoy a BJJ class as he’s super didactical alongside his wife Abbi that is another phenomenal competitor and professor.

I highly recommend the TAP.Thalys is one of the most dedicated and passionate people I know, you and your family will definitely benefit from his classes in many ways.

You are in very good hands at this gym! Thalys is a very high level teacher, competitor and all around a great guy! Definitely check it out if you're in the area

I dropped in for a class at TAP academy, run by prof Thalys and his wife Abby. The facility was spotless and very family oriented. Both the instructors have dedicated their life to jujitsu and have accomplishments in the highest BJJ tournaments in all belt levels. I enjoyed how they structured classes adults/kids and guided their students through technique/sparring. I highly recommend if your in the SC area. Looking forward to coming back.

High level instruction from two of the most talented and explosive competitors in BJJ.
