Samantha Downey
"Incredible gym with a family type vibe. I joined bjj with my 6 year old without any previous martial art experience. I was extremely apprehensive with having zero knowledge of the sport, but this gym made me feel at ease. Extremely welcoming and encouraging group of people! I look forward to every class(even on the days my feet are dragging from life.) I highly recommend anyone who’s looking into jiu jitsu to try this gym! Thank you 3G for making us feel at home."
Christopher Huggins
"This Judo and Jiu-Jitsu school stands out for its outstanding instructors, excellent organization, and top-notch facilities. They genuinely care for every new student and excel at both teaching and creating a welcoming environment. Thank you to the entire team—especially Sensei Brogan—for your dedication and warmth."
Carl Nerthling
"My first experience at Harrisburg BJJ East was nothing short of exceptional. Jeff and the Tuesday night crew were very welcoming of visitors. The drilling and instruction were digestible and scalable for all levels, and the rolls were fun and challenging. Thanks again to the members at Harrisburg BJJ East, I will definitely be back soon!"
