“Incredible group of people here. Coach Null is a fantastic instructor who is able to explain technique simply, and in a way that produces repeatable results after a single lesson. I really enjoyed my two weeks training here while I was away from my home gym. Thank you, everyone”

“True Grit is a fantastic place to train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for both adults and children alike. The friendly welcoming environment is perfect for those looking for a place to learn what this art is all about. I have visited this academy on multiple occasions (I live out of town) and cannot imagine training anywhere else when I’m in McAlester. Check this place out!!”
