St. Joseph Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Mixed Martial Arts

Extremely friendly and welcoming. I moved from Washington state and the team here made it easy to start training at a new facility!

My 5yo loves doing BJJ! We are not very long into this, but it's the one activity that he refuses to miss. Deryck has been an excellent coach, and is excellent with the little ones! He keeps the atmosphere light for the kids, but also does great at teaching them discipline when they start to lose focus. I highly recommend letting your kids at least try BJJ out to see if they like it. It's a great sport that's often overlooked by basketball, football, soccer.

Highly recommend training here, amazing atmosphere. coach deryck actually cares abut his students and teaches moves that actually works. In competition and in real life senerios. Best place hands down.

Phenomenal place to learn and grow in martial arts. The atmosphere is fun and exciting yet professional and safe. Classes are available to children and adults at every skill level. Prices are affordable.

Best martial arts school in the KC area! Wether you’re looking to lose weight, get in shape, learn self defense, or interested in training/competing this is the place to do it! The Coaches are awesome, they treat everyone equally and will push you to do your best but will never make you do something you’re uncomfortable with doing. If you want to become a better you don’t look any further because this is it!

I have been training for just under a year and half at this gym and love it! Whether you are looking to improve your self defense capabilities, or just get in better physical shape you will not be disappointed here. The staff and teammates are amazing and have become a second family to me. My 12 year old son now trains here as well and loves it! If you are looking to challenge yourself, come check us out!

Best martial arts academy in town! Great instructor who's knowledgeable and passionate about the sport. Having programs for all ages and a large group of dedicated members who are very supportive and helpful really makes it a great family oriented environment. Training here has literately changed my life.

I put my 5 year old son in class as soon as the gym opened. After watching how well the coaches worked with their students, I decided to join the adult classes. I do not regret it, and I am so thankful this gym came to our community.

Family friendly and clean environment. Coaches are highly experienced and knowledgeable. Classes for all ages. Students are welcoming to new comers. Relevant, real world self defense all while getting in the best shape of your life.

I've traveled quite a bit and have been to many gyms - St. Joe BJJ is one of the most welcoming gyms I've been to. Coach Deryck is knowledgeable and very fluent with his instruction. The gym has a great vibe and very family-oriented. Children have their own play area while mom and dad get to train! For the BJJ and MMA community in St. Joe, this place is definitely a gem. Highly recommended.
