Takedown City Wrestling & Jiu-Jitsu Academy

“Super helpful instructors for my children. I might have the most introverted child and it can be difficult for him to stay in social situations with people other than family. They are incredibly patient with him and I’m incredibly thankful. My other two children are learning so much. They have several classes available during the week for children and adults which is different from other locations I found in my research. My children can attend Mon-Thurs. There is also a Friday class available for those that are training for competitive activities.”

“Professor Danielle and Gabe are the best in the city! My daughter LOVES going to wrestling classes and has made friends there so quickly! If you’re looking for a gym for your kid, this is the best place to be hands down.”

“This gym is amazing & the professors are 10/10 I currently take adult jiujitsu classes, & my 6 year old daughter takes kids jiujitsu & wrestling classes. We have found an amazing home gym where we can both grow together & compete together. The vibe is very welcoming, the families are so sweet and caring. We’ve all really become one big family. It feels good to know we are being taught by some of the best professors there are in San Antonio. They offer classes everyday so you’ll definitely be able to find something that fits your schedule. My daughter has won several gold & silver medals under the guidance of Professor Danielle for both Jiujitsu & Wrestling in less than a year. Her skills with kids are unmatched!!! And the true care Professor Danielle has for her kids is why I continue the journey here. You can see the true love she has for these kiddos and their sport. We can’t thank both Professor Gabe & Professor Danielle for all the hard work they put into each and every one of us!!! Stop by & try one of our classes!! You’ll fall in love with the sport, like we did!!!”

“I was visiting from out of town and needed an academy to train at for the week. I ended up dropping into Takedowncity after someone recommended the gym to me. As soon as I walked in at 6 in the morning, I was greeted with a smile from the instructor letting me know where the bathrooms were and where I could put my stuff. I was nervous about dropping into a new gym and that there would be no ladies but there was a big group of ladies training there who introduced themselves and were great partners. Highly recommend checking this gym out and making this either your home gym if you live in San Antonio or dropping in if you are just visiting!”

“I joined Takedown City a few months ago in order to learn good, fundamental bjj in the interest of self-defense and fitness. This is a friendly, family-oriented school that is accommodating to all ages, skill levels and ambitions. There is a strong emphasis on fundamentals, with Professor Reynaga often staying late to provide one-on-one, detailed coaching to help beginners with the basics. The general atmosphere is highly supportive and conducive to consistent improvement. In addition to live rolls, the instructors constantly incorporate positional, high-resistance drills that help students develop muscle memory in a variety of situations. Rather than taking a "sink or swim" approach, Takedown City focuses on incremental development of foundational skills. It's no coincidence that the students who do choose to compete always perform well. I heartily endorse Takedown City, and I encourage you to give it a shot, whatever your goals.”
