Ares Arizona Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

“My family joined, but my three sons mainly go ages 14, 13, and 7 years old. I find the academy to be a great place for people of all ages. The coaches are patient, understanding and will knowledgeable of the Brazilian jiu-jitsu art, and a very youth friendly environment. "It's a Great Academy" ~The Espinoza Family~”

“Paul and Leslie Nava and all his coaches have created an amazing atmosphere of learning. I love being part of this family and community! BJJ will change your life, and if you ever want to take that step ... Ares BJJ is the place to start the journey!”

“My husband has been going to AEM for years. Our son joined this year too. He attends classes multiple times a week at a flat rate. The coaches are fantastic, great seminars and lessons, the location is convenient, and there is a family vibe between everyone that goes to this academy. Highly recommend if you're interested in BJJ for yourself or your family or looking for a new BJJ gym to join.”

“This place is truly amazing. I’ve never done any martial arts or wrestling or fighting. I took my family for an intro class and it was exactly what we’ve been looking for. Something for me, my wife, and my daughter. Very inviting! Going into a gym for the first time is always intimidating. Between the other students, the coaches, and the atmosphere that intimidation goes to zero almost immediately. This is the kind of place that makes advanced students better but also gives white belts a seriously well balanced base in fundamentals. You will not regret checking this gym out.”

“I have been a student under Paul Nava since January 2013. I'm truly thankful for the positive impact that he has made, and continues to make on my life. This school is for anyone, from any walk of life. Come on in and train with us!”
