"Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Phoenix is a very welcoming gym. Adam Ideson and his instructors explain every move in great detail including how to execute them safely for you and your partner. Even if you have zero martial arts experience you’ll gain valuable knowledge on your first day. Every blue belt and above are clearly in great shape and exude a quiet confidence. Highly recommend."

"Adam is the best! My kids have been attending Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Phoenix since 2022, he's a one of a kind instructor. Highly recommend and love that they've expanded into another location!"

"I have been training with Gracie Jui-Jitsu for 3 years now and recently transferred to the new facility here on Bell. The new location is beautiful, very clean and conveniently located right off highway 51. If you want to learn Jui-Jitsu and self defense, there is no better school anywhere! Everyone is very welcoming and the intimidation factor is nonexistent. Plus, they offer a 10-day free trial for all new students, so there should be no excuse for not giving them a try! One of the best decisions I have ever made!"
Joseph Sabroski
"Adam and his team of instructors are exemplary leaders and practitioners of jiu jitsu. I am humbled to have been exposed to this unique and supporting community of martial artists. I came to GJJ Phoenix to learn self defense, as many new students of jiu jitsu often do. And in this regard GJJ Phx overdelivers. But I stayed to satisfy my never-ending curiosity and love for the sportive aspect of jiu jitsu. I am truly, truly blown away by how devoted Adam is to his school and his students. He walks the walk, both on and off the mat, he is who he says he is. Adam, you changed my life and I'm lucky to know you."
