"Awesome gym to train at. I was in town visiting family over spring break and was recommended fellowship to take a couple drop in classes. Both days I had a blast! Professor David and his wife Shanna made me feel right at home. I rolled with most of the students and professor David. It's a great group of guys and would absolutely recommend them to start or continue your journey!"
Jeff Albrecht
"From the moment I walked into fellowship, the energy in the gym was radiating off the mats. Professor David was leading the kids class with a blend of engagement and energy to ensure that they were capturing the technique while understanding how it connects to self defense. I saw this same commitment for teaching and creating a strong community-focused culture in the adult class where there was a perfect blend of training technique and practical application. I’ve trained jiu-jitsu for 10 years and have dropped into gyms from California to New York. Fellowship is doing it right. They have coaches who truly care about their students and the community here in Show Low/Pinetop. I’d strongly recommend popping in and trying out a class - whether you’ve never touched a mat or been training for years! Thanks Fellowship for being so welcoming!"
Reece Nassif
"Fellowship Jiu Jitsu welcomed me in like one of their own. I was in town for a week and needed my jiu jitsu fix. I did 3 classes and enjoyed each one. Passing drills, detailed lesson’s , situational rounds, and live rounds. What more could you ask for? Keep it up Dave and Shanna. Thanks again for a great week of training!"
Daniel Foster
"I always wanted to try out bjj but had reservations about doing so. I’m grateful that I chose Fellowship BJJ to lead me down that journey. Dave and Shanna have created a gym that is very welcoming and comfortable for all levels. They have found a way to incorporate a family atmosphere with high level training."
