Grapple

"JC has done an incredible job with this school, creating an environment where students receive top-quality instruction and genuine care. His dedication and investment in the school are evident in every aspect, from the expert teaching to the welcoming and supportive atmosphere. The culture here is truly one of a kind, making it an exceptional place to learn and grow. Highly recommended!"

"After a college friend recommended Grapple, I decided to check it out. As someone with four years of BJJ experience, I believe cross-training is key to improving your skills. Having trained at six different gyms across Mississippi, I can confidently say Grapple stands out as one of my favorite places to roll. Though it’s not my home gym, Grapple feels like a second home. The members are welcoming, genuine, and stay connected with me regularly. I’ve built strong relationships with the owner and many teammates, who care not only about sharpening my BJJ skills but also about me as a person. Their support extends beyond the mats, making every visit meaningful. Training at Grapple has boosted my confidence in multiple areas of my BJJ game. If you’re in the Rankin area looking to compete or simply want a great workout, Grapple is an excellent choice for learning and growing in a supportive environment"

"Grapple has a fantastic atmosphere! The coach is a great teacher, who doesn't take himself too seriously. Also, there is a camaraderie and joyful ethos in the gym as a whole. I have been only training here two months, and yet everyone is eager to help and works to avoid the "one-upping" that can creep into martial arts."

"Came here for the Placido and really enjoyed the gym. It has a very welcoming vibe and a great mat space. I enjoyed the training methods as well. I would definitely come back here for more training."
