Cactus Jiu Jitsu Academy

“I’m not exaggerating if I say that Cactus Jiu Jitsu has changed the trajectory of our kids lives. Not only have our daughters learned a new self defense skill, but they are more confident in themselves and more connected to their bodies since starting Jiu Jitsu. Coach Ed and the entire Cactus Jiu Jitsu team made us feel welcomed and a part of the family from day one. Everyone was so patient and compassionate when our daughter was feeling anxious getting started and they continue to encourage and motive the kids to be better, mentally and physically. If you are looking for that jiu jitsu gym with a friendly family feel, for your kids or yourself, then you will love it here.”

“I’ve visited Cactus JJ twice. I’m a member of another gym under the Pedro Sauer association. Highly recommend. Ed and Val are excellent instructors and leaders. They and all the students were very welcoming and friendly. Anytime I’m in town, I’ll look to drop in again.”

“Coach Ed is really great with the kids. He explains everything in ways they can easily understand, he has the kids contribute to the lessons and he shows so much patience. The class is always engaging, safe and fun. I highly recommend Cactus Jiu Jitsu. This is a wonderful family Academy!”

“Cactus Jiu-jitsu is a great place to train with small class sizes, awesome coaches, and great people. If you have been considering jiu-jitsu, this is a great place to start. It does not matter if you are 30 or 60. You will receive great training, great rolling, be able to put in the hard work needed, and be able to wake up and go to work the next day. The perfect balance for this 41 year old dad trying to balance a family, a business, and my personal interests.”

“Best school out here! The members are super kind and friendly, there are multiple instructors offering different teaching styles, as well as offering any assistance you may need. There are private lessons suitable for nearly everyone, and it’s a great opportunity for anyone and any age. I would most certainly recommend this academy.”
