Brian Neihoff
"Not a student of this gym, but dropped in over the weekend. When I called in, the owner/coach David was very welcoming and invited me to their 11am Saturday class. I found the facility to be very clean- even cleaner than my gym in Nashville. The coaching was on point and the students were all respectful and welcoming. I'd probably join here if I lived in Memphis"

"I feel like this place is an awesome place with a family oriented environment. I joined but than illness took place again . To only go to a few classes and for Mr David to reach out after I missed a few classes it was heart felt . Also I been to other jiu jitsu gym and the level of cleanliness is top tier . Also the teaching is awesome . I can’t wait to return ."
Jennifer Klemke
"Wonderful place with the best jiu jitsu family environment. Coach David Morrison was amazing. My kids and I are from Texas and wanted to get in some mat time while in Memphis. The entire family here took us in and made us comfortable and provided world class techniques and instruction. Highly recommended you check it out!"
Tommy Parker
"This place is amazing! I had zero experience in anything remotely resembling jiu jitsu but these wonderful people welcomed me in and have been nothing short of great. David and all of the other instructors are fantastic and have a vast knowledge to share. I 1,000% recommend GFTeam!!"
