Select Jiu Jitsu Academy

“I was passing through Waco cuz my friend that I was road tripping with was set on visiting that town cuz of the Chip and Joanna. I looked for a gym to stay active and I called Select Jiu Jitsu and they were extremely kind to let me drop in for a day of training. The class that day was taught by one of the brown belts. I forget his name but he's also a professor at the university. Learning from him was amazing. Kind of reminded me of Danaher style of teaching. Super calm, cerebral, and philosophical. I wish I had the time to take more classes but I was only in Waco for 1 day. Thank you for your professional service and the great mat time!”

“This academy is awesome and so entertaining! This is my wife's home away from home! She loves this place, and everyone here is like a family. I come with Vanessa sometimes to watch her train, and I am always smiling and laughing. Great crowd, great lil' family. #shakyleg 🤣”

“The instruction is great. The instructor and other individuals that attend class are all very helpful with helping out and answering any questions. Everyone does a really good job making sure you feel comfortable in class. The mats are very clean as well. Overall, this is a highly recommended place to train!”

“I don't usually do reviews unless I feel they really are warranted. This is by far the best place to train in the Waco area. I have had my kids in Jiu Jitsu class from Okinawa, Japan to Arcadia, California and now here in Waco. Lance does a great job with the kids and takes the time to make sure they understand the instructions. He also shows the kids how the "real world" application of Jiu Jitsu would aid the kids in a bully situation or an actual fight and not just train for "tournament points" like a lot of other places do. The Academy is very clean. They are always having fun events and special classes like the Halloween fun night and the Japanese sword class. They even have fitness and striking class that you can take. I highly recommend this training facility. P.S they have A/C. I didn't know how important that would be until I moved here to this Texas heat.”

“If you are looking for premium Bjj in Waco, TX this is the place to be. Good teachers make good students and you can tell that when you roll with both at Select.”
