Renzo Gracie Jersey City

“This place is like another home for me. The community is so friendly and encouraging, the teachers are fantastic and the students respectful. I was hesitant to get back into martial arts but this place has supported and guided me every step of the way. On a deeper level, BJJ and Kickboxing has taught me so much about myself, been an incredible stress buster as well as helping me start believing in myself again. Can’t recommend this place enough. Come roll with us and never give up.”

“I enrolled my little guy in this jiu-jitsu gym a few months back and let me tell you, The place is buzzing with energy, and every session is like a mini-adventure for him. First off, the fundamentals – The coaches have this magical way of breaking down the techniques so that even the wiggliest of kids can get their moves down pat. And the patience they have? It's like they've all reached some zen master level of cool that just keeps the whole class engaged. But let's talk about the fun – because, trust me, there's plenty of it! It's not all 'bow to your sensei' seriousness here. The drills come with a side of giggles and games that improve agility and fitness. The kids here are learning about respect, camaraderie, so Highly recommend! P.S. Parents, beware – you might just find yourself itching to join an adult class after seeing how much fun these kids are having. Don't say I didn't warn you!”

“I was determined to learn jiu jitsu but I didn’t know if I was cut out for this; talking to Professor Gabe on instagram and showing up for a trial class at RGJC was probably the best thing I did this year. The coaches are all super supportive, experienced and the schedule caters to individuals from all levels. Professor Gabe is invested in your progress and he truly cares about you doing well. The members here are all very approachable and from a beginner’s perspective, most of them are very keen on helping others. I’ve always got great support from the more experienced guys. The vibe is great, location’s great, there’s an environment that’s conducive to growth and a community that motivates you to come back and train the next day.”

“It's difficult to review what it feels like to become a member of a community. But that is exactly what it means to be a student at a Jiu Jitsu school. You'll find a group of like minded people who will support you, challenge you and teach you how be become better. This is just as true for children as it is for adults. Renzo Gracie Jersey City AKA "RGJC" AKA "Chill Town Jiu Jitsu" AKA "House of Champions" is a powerful community. As one of the lucky members I've learned new self defense and combat skills, found fitness and friends. Update: 5.5 years later. Still here and loving it!”

“I love this place! I’ve been lifting and doing CrossFit at a high level since 2012. On my 37th birthday i joined Renzo Gracie on Newark and have been training here 4x per week since. The classes are an amazing workout and a great way to challenge to your strength, conditioning, balance, coordination, and mobility! The Instructors are all incredibly experienced, knowledgeable, and great at breaking down movements to teach members of all levels. Shoutout to Professor Gabriel, Noam, and Jason! And members in the community are friendly and fun to roll with! I will be a member for as long as i live in JC! And if i move I’ll join another Renzo location! Highly highly highly recommend!”
