What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Kristan Rosario
"Awesome area to train, knowledgable instructors, conducive environment to learn; and build friendships and team support that carry over to tournaments, just overall worthwhile place to practice and improve your grappling."
Jon Drivas
"My 18-year-old son, a complete beginner, joined Gambit Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai, and I'm incredibly impressed with his progress. The instructors have been fantastic at working with his skill level, building his confidence, and teaching him valuable self-defense techniques. He's fitter, more focused, and more confident than ever before. Highly recommend Gambit, especially for those starting their martial arts journey later in life."
JM MD
"Going through small town America, I did not have much hope for a good roll. Yet I found in Gambit Submission Fighting a great mat, great rolls, and great dudes. The moment the owner found out I was only passing through he waived his daily fee and offered me a spot in the class. I recommend you swing by if you have the chance π"
Derek Grant
"Amazing instructors and great people on the mats. One of the best gym atmospheres around. The hardest part is walking through the door for the first time - come try a class!"
