What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Tyler Dyer
"Can't believe I have not given Great Grappling a review! Around 6 years ago I entered here after finishing college and haven't left since. The team instruction here is amazing and the community is top notch. I'm a little biased though since I'm an instructor here as well 😉. This gym has made me a better public speaker, a better listener, and an all around better grappler. If you're ever in the area come to the fundamentals class or Saturday open mat and say hi."
Rob Evans
"I had no prior experience in grappling and no expectations, so I decided to give the week-long trial period a try. The upper belts, who I mean anyone who wasn’t a beginner, were incredibly helpful. I attend classes during the day, and it’s just as great. I want to express my gratitude to Evan and Bob for being patient with me. If you’ve ever thought about trying out BJJ this gym is great place to start."
Jason Dayton
"I love training at Great Grappling! I've been there for 6 years now and couldn't be happier with the instruction that my kids and I receive. The community aspect and family atmosphere makes it feel welcoming to anyone and everyone, and the variety and different levels of training partners keeps everyone challenged as well. Jeremy is a fantastic teacher with a degree in education that helps keep the instruction at this school far above what you'll find just about anywhere else."
Carroll Fox
"I’ve done business with Jeremy and seen him interact with the students. He is great and his students are very respectful! Highly recommend."
