Renzo Gracie Jiu Jitsu Portland

“Dropped in a 10am nogi class & and had an outstanding experience. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and the instruction was top notch. Facilities were beautiful. If I lived in Portland I would absolutely train here. Highly highly recommend this gym!”

“Very welcoming. I dropped in for a class when visiting Portland. Aaron and his students couldn't have been more accommodating. Tough rolls with good people, great facilities (a shower! big windows! clean mats!), and awesome instruction + pointers from Aaron. I hope to be back next time I visit my pals in the PNW.”

“My coach from Seattle recommended I join this gym when I told him I was moving to Portland and for obvious reasons! The coaching is clear and organized, and there are a variety of times available which offers great flexibility. Everyone is very friendly and offers great pieces of advice.”

“My, now, almost 17 yr old, and 13 yr old have been studying jiu jitsu at Renzo Gracie approaching 2.5 years. It is an exceptional place. It is serious in the best way possible- Coach Aaron and every instructor provide clear, modeled, instruction on the moves. He is a warm demander, constantly moving around the room, observing and providing feedback. As important, it is a joyful and accepting place. Ya’ just feel good here. Awesome women instructors are a part of Renzo, and there are many girls and young women participants in the youth classes. Amazing wrestlers. My older son moved on to the adult class. He has found the environment welcoming and supportive. I suspect that Renzo has contributed greatly to my sons’ confidence. Both are athletic, but neither were drawn to traditional team sports. Also, it’s just fun!”

“It’s been about 6 years since I practiced BJJ, but the combination of excellent instruction from Aaron and Frank is top notch. So glad I came across their location, and couldn’t recommend them more for new, or seasoned practitioners. What a great place to roll.”
