IRONGRIP Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

“Iron Grip is an amazing gym right in the heart of downtown Raleigh. Coach Glayton is a patient, communicative and highly experienced teacher who can work with a beginner through the fundamentals just as easily as more advanced/intermediate student through more advanced levels. Helpful is an understatement. You quickly make friends with the other students as well! Overall, would highly recommend anyone to join and get to rolling!”

“I had the privilege of attending a training session at IRONGRIP JIU JITSU this afternoon, led by Coach Glayton, whose detailed and focused instruction made for a truly enriching experience. If you're ever in the Raleigh area, I highly recommend visiting for a top-notch class and excellent rolls with solid training partners!”

“Iron Grip Jiu Jitsu is a hidden gem for martial arts enthusiasts in the area. The instructors are world-class, with a perfect blend of technical expertise and approachable teaching styles that make learning enjoyable for all skill levels. The facility is clean, spacious, and well-equipped with quality mats and training gear. What really sets Iron Grip apart, though, is the supportive community they've built. The students are friendly and encouraging, creating an environment where everyone pushes each other to improve. Our son has seen significant progress in technique and fitness since joining. The curriculum is well-structured, offering a mix of fundamental drills and more advanced concepts that keep classes challenging and engaging. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced grappler, Iron Grip Jiu Jitsu has something to offer. If you're looking to learn self-defense or get in shape Five stars - I can't recommend Iron Grip Jiu Jitsu highly enough!”

“I joined IRONGRIP about a year ago and can’t recommend it enough. I was on the fence about trying something new, but I’m glad I did and haven’t looked back. Glayton (and the entire gym) were/are extremely welcoming. Coach is the real deal! Not only is he great at teaching jiu jitsu and helping us get better, he also cares about his members beyond the mat. Come join the crew!”

“Love this place! Learning Jiu Jitsu at IronGrip has been awesome. Been here for two years now and have truly seen a change in how I approach my health outside of class so that I can be ready for my time on the mat. Coach is super encouraging, and knows what he is doing!”
