Explore Jiu Jitsu Techniques“Starting to train at Americana has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made and it has had a huge impact on my life. Jiu Jitsu is a great teacher of humility, perseverance, hard work and community. Even though grappling is an individual sport, you can’t get better without good teammates and teachers. Americana has the best of both. Everyone is friendly and willing to help you learn and grow. You won’t find a better group of people anywhere. Whether you’re an adult or looking for somewhere safe for your kids to train, I wouldn’t recommend any other gym.”
“There are a few things that come to mind when I think about Americana BJJ. Quality is the first. The amount of black belts under Americana is impressive. Their instruction is top notch, as evidenced by the number of people that compete and win. Pride is another. I'm proud to be a part of Americana because the instructors create an environment of belonging and genuinely care about you as a person. Last is family. All of the instructors welcome you into their classes and get to know you over time. Add to that the intimacy of grappling with others and you start to feel like you are part of a family. The shared struggle of learning and practicing an art form to hone your skills and improve yourself creates a bond that is very unique. Andrew Osterlund and his instructors foster an incredible environment here, and if you can have the courage to walk through the door... you won't be disappointed.”
“My son has been training at ABJJ for the last year and absolutely loves it. The owner is a great guy and surely knows his stuff along with all of the staff from Tori to the folks training the kids classes. It’s been so nice working with them all. They’ve got such a good team that flows so nicely. My son is developing the skills to help him thrive in the world we live in and they’re really helping him to learn and grow as a Jiu Jitsu student too. Thank you ABJJ for all that y’all do for our youth!”

“I Paid Good Money to Get Choked... and I'd Do It Again. There’s nothing quite like walking into Americana Brazilian Jiu Jitsu thinking you’re in shape… only to be folded like a lawn chair by a teenager who weighs 40 pounds less than you. And I loved it. Every class at Americana is a masterclass in humility. But here's the thing — I've never felt more alive. If you're looking for a place to get stronger, both physically and mentally — and don't mind losing to a 12-year-old prodigy now and then — Americana BJJ is the spot. Highly recommend.”
