The head instructor is a fantastic teacher with endless enthusiasm for BJJ. I've wrestled for years and been a member of several different BJJ gyms, but I've never received better instruction than here. The gym is clean, with professional staff and has a wholesome sense of community. My wife's game has elevated since joining Mission Grappling Club.

My family has moved around a bit (military) so I’ve trained at a few gyms. Mission Grappling Club is the best. When I started at MGC I was in a bit of a training slump. The folks at MGC effortlessly got me back on track, somehow always knowing exactly what coaching I needed. My training has never felt so purposeful. The owners are kind with well calibrated moral compasses making for a welcoming, safe, and professional training environment. Words can’t accurately describe how wonderful this gym is. You really have to experience it for yourself.

Amazing Club, did their free trial and immediately signed up my 2 oldest. Run by some great men and cannot wait to see this place blow up over the coming years.

The gym is clean, professional and super friendly, there's a bunch of men and women of all ages and ranks from white to black belt. The high-quality elevated mats make it comfortable for wrestling, judo and jujitsu.

I got to drop in here and I'm glad I did. Relaxed atmosphere, knowledgeable instructor. I personally got some great insights from the instructor that I think will really help me improve. They are doing a lot of cool different things. Personalized goal oriented training. They've made an app that gives ELO scores for matches based on ride time spent in a dominant position and everyone who uses the app is ranked in the population. Can't wait to see how this place has grown when I visit again. I'd sign up here if I lived here.
