Mike Turpin
"I come here every week as an instructor and black belt at another gym. It is bittersweet knowing that this isn't my home gym but is as true of a family as I could ask for. Great people and training. Look forward to every open mat. Come out and see what it's about! Thank you Bel Air BJJ and crew 👊"
Natalia Spac
"I’d give them 100 starts if I could! Great place! Awesome staff and coaches! Also, the cleanest gym I’ve ever seen! And no obligations or contract like in other places. They are absolutely The Best!"
Michael Barreca
"My 14-year-old son and I fell in love with the Muay Thai program at Belair BJJ in Maryland where Coaches Taylor and Dominick provide exceptional instruction in a welcoming, family-friendly environment. The clean, state-of-the-art facility accommodates practitioners of all ages and skill levels, making it the perfect place for our father-son martial arts journey. We highly recommend Belair BJJ to anyone looking for quality martial arts training in Maryland."
Ryan Rivera
"Bel Air BJJ has truly leveled up. What sets this gym apart isn’t just the welcoming atmosphere or top-notch instruction—it’s the structured curriculum and the clear focus on progression. Whether you're brand new to Jiu-Jitsu or have years on the mats, the curriculum gives you a solid path to follow, making it easier to track your growth and really dial in your fundamentals. Lately, there’s been a noticeable push toward competition training, and it’s awesome to see how the coaches are tailoring classes to help athletes prepare for tournaments. The energy is electric, with everyone pushing each other to be sharper, faster, and more technical. But even with the competitive edge, the vibe stays supportive—teammates help each other level up without ego getting in the way. The facility itself is clean and spacious, with plenty of mat room even during busy classes. If you're looking for a place that blends solid fundamentals, a clear learning structure, and a competitive edge—all while being part of a community that feels like family—Bel Air BJJ is the place to train."
