Training at Gustavo Machado BJJ under Greg Walker has been an incredible experience. Greg is not only a highly skilled instructor but also a dedicated and supportive leader who truly cares about each student’s growth. The atmosphere he fosters is one of respect, discipline, and community. Whether you’re just starting out or have years on the mat, this school offers high-level instruction in a welcoming environment. The techniques are taught with clarity to all styles of learning and the training partners are respectful and motivated. I can’t recommend this place enough for anyone serious about learning the science of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and expressing it in their own artistic way.

An amazing space with a team that really cares. Greg, his family, and staff are amazing to work with. Extremely professional and always willing to help with anything. If you come here you will be met with kindness, respect, and most of all a wealth of coaching/knowledge.

Just moved here from Florida and took some time to check out a few schools. This one felt right as I walked through the door. Strong friendly culture of respect and focus. Greg is a great communicator and instructor. He does a great job getting around the room during instructional and drilling periods. The students all have an air of comfort and community. Looking forward to continuing my journey at Gustavo Machado Chesapeake

Completely agree with all the other reviews. Great facilities and professor Greg Walker is awesome with both children and adults alike. We started with our two kids and then my wife and I decided to join. Along with great facilities and instruction, the people that train together here are an awesome group. My family started with zero formal experience and all felt welcome from day one. Stop by and check out the free week of classes; no pressure, no obligation, no uniform required. Young child intro (my 4 year old) Tuesday and Thursday 5-5:30pm Saturday 9-9:30am Youth fundamentals (my 6 year old) Tuesday and Thursday 5:30-6:30pm Saturday 9:30-10:30am Adult fundamentals class times: Tuesday and Thursday 6:30-7:30pm Saturday 11:30am-12:30
