Fairfax Jiu Jitsu Academy

“I did a drop in class. This class was perfect. We did a lot of positional sparring from butterfly. Then rolled. Wavier is easy and so is payment will drop in again. Thanks Conor for showing me around and give me great rolls and showing me how you adjust the shoulder crunch. It was clean everyone was friendly. Good vibes”

“Highly recommend checking out the BJJ classes here! Training at this gym was an incredible experience. Coach Mark and Coach Sam were always supportive, helping me improve my technique and making each class enjoyable with a mix of drills and fun activities. The students here are also super friendly and helpful, especially when you’re just starting out. When my schedule got hectic and I had to pause my membership, they were super understanding and flexible. The new website is also a great upgrade. It’s clean, user-friendly, and makes it easy to find everything you need. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to sharpen your skills, this is a great place to train.”

“My husband and I started at Fairfax Jiu Jitsu 9 years ago and I could not recommend it more. Coach Mark has fostered an environment where learning and respect are the top priority. Higher belts are not only studying and evolving their own games but are willing to help lower belts get better and learn as well. There were not many women when I started at FJJ. Since then our group has grown and it is all because of the environment that Coach Mark created. As a woman, it is easy to feel safe and included in any class. The Women’s Only class has given us the space to grow as athletes and friends. I look forward to putting my daughters in the kids class once they are old enough!”

“Fairfax Jiu Jitsu truly feels like family, and that’s thanks to Coach Mark’s leadership. His unmatched energy, passion, and dedication create an environment where everyone — from beginners to seasoned athletes — feels supported, challenged, and motivated to grow. The women’s program has been an incredible place to learn and be pushed by amazing higher belts who genuinely want to help you succeed. FJJ is a place like no other, and I’m so grateful to be part of a community led by Coach Mark that truly helps you grow.”

“Incredibly welcoming academy and instructors and very accommodating to Military members. The moment I walked in and expressed interest, I felt welcomed and part of the community. Not only from the coaches but the members as well. No arrogance or egos to deal with or experienced members trying to “humble” white belts - only the desire to learn and make everyone better. And that mentality and culture begins with the coaches. Extremely grateful for my time there and cannot recommend FJJ enough!”
