Northwest Jiu Jitsu Academy

“Extremely clean facility! Owner was super welcoming and has obviously set a wonderful culture for the gym. The coach for the evening, Joseph, was very thorough and added some really amazing details for my game. At the end of class, live training with both the coach and students was an absolute blast and I will 100% be coming back next time I am in town!”

“Where do I start? Brian is one of the most patient, collected, and direct teacher’s I’ve worked with, and I’m a teacher myself. The community is nothing short of a mirrored reflection of the humility, respect, and levity that he brings everyday to both training on the mat, and his relationships with all the students. If you’re just starting BJJ, this is the place. If you’re experienced and are looking to take your game to the next level and join a welcoming and badass community, this is the place. See you there.”

“Great gym with friendly peers and high level instruction! Brian is professional, patient, and extremely detailed. Day classes have around 8 black belts regularly. This speaks volumes on the quality of this gym! Highly recommended!”

“Dropped in here while visiting the area. Great gym. Clean mats with a nice strength/conditioning area. Technical instruction. Training partners in the 11AM class to suit a wide range of skill levels. Would feel comfortable here as a beginner or experienced competitor.”

“I joined Northwest Jiu Jitsu as a brown belt because I was looking for a more convenient place to train given where I work, and the fact that I can only train in the mornings. After reviewing the reviews here on Yelp, I decided to give it a try. After my first class, I knew this was the perfect place for me to continue training. I have now been training here for nearly a year, and couldn't be happier. Brian Johnson is a great teacher, talented Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practitioner, and extremely approachable when you have questions about techniques. When watching him teach, you can see that he has a real passion for Jiu-Jitsu and teaching. The facility and mats are immaculate, I've never seen a cleaner school. The students are extremely friendly - there are no egos here. I strongly recommend Northwest Jiu Jitsu to anyone looking to get into Jiu Jitsu for the first time, or if you are looking to change schools.”
