10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Newark

“10th planet is amazing. Jon is a great owner and coach— he genuinely cares about anyone who wants to learn the sport. The community and environment he has created is also very supportive and welcoming.”

“I've been training at 10th Planet Newark for a little over a year now, and I can’t say enough good things about this place. My 12-, 10-, and 6-year-old daughters train here too, and we all love it. Jon, the head coach, is super patient and always really detailed with his teaching. He genuinely cares about every student’s progress, and the assistant coaches are just as awesome. Everyone here is all about helping you improve and succeed, and it makes for such a positive environment. I started as an adult with zero martial arts background, which was a little intimidating at first, but everyone here made it easy. I never once felt out of place or dumb for being new. Everyone is so welcoming - whether you’re a beginner or have experience, you feel at home right away. Now, a little over a year in, I’m training about three times a week and even started competing a bit - something I’d never have imagined. If you're looking to dive into BJJ or just find a great community, 10th Planet Newark is where it's at!”

“Absolutely the best place to train. Both my children train here including myself. John has been one of the best coaches I've ever been coached by. His patience with the kids is incredible. For a sport that can be very intimidating for kids and adults he has created an environment that makes you feel that you going to accomplish your goals whenever they are. We are so lucky we have found this place.”

“I stopped by to train on a Thursday night and had a great experience. Jon is technically strong, communicates clearly and has instilled in all his students a respect for both safety and fundamental mastery. I have trained at many places over the last 20 years; I strongly recommend Jon's dojo as a welcoming and safe place to train.”

“I highly recommend training at 10th Planet Newark! The coaches are great at teaching classes and the overall atmosphere is welcoming to people from all walks of life! The boxing classes on Saturday mornings are awesome as well! Get a membership and watch your Jiu Jitsu skills improve!”
