What Our Students Say

Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.

Jesse Bultongez

"Highlight BJJ has been my home gym since August 2022, and I couldn’t imagine training anywhere else. I originally joined for a weight loss challenge, but I completely fell in love with jiu-jitsu. The classes are led by Professor Allen Brooks, whose dedication to the art is unmatched—he teaches sound, effective jiu-jitsu that delivers real results. The gym is welcoming to everyone, making space for both hobbyists and active competitors like myself. If you’re in Duncanville or the surrounding area and want to have fun while developing great jiu-jitsu, I highly recommend joining Highlight BJJ. It’s family-oriented with an awesome children’s program and a community that makes everyone feel at home."

Anahi Rodriguez

"Professor Alyn has cultivated a safe environment for children, woman, and adults from diverse cultures to come and learn Jiujitsu together. Highlight has both: competitors and non competitors (children and adults). Professor Alyn and Coach E always show up for their athletes, in and out of the mat. Their love for jiujitsu has inspired many kids and adults. The personal and athletic growth of the team is a true testament of their support and great coaching skills. I am a proud member of Highlight. Thanks to Professor Alyn and Coach E, I placed 1st in a tournament. If you want to learn self defense, simply work out, and/or compete. Come try it out. We have a very welcoming environment."

Devin Fletcher

"Had a great time training with Professor Alyn Brooks and the team while visiting from Florida. They have an Great facility and welcoming environment. I will definitely be coming back next time I’m in town!"

The Wholistic Market

"Been attending weekly classes at Highlight for about 5 months now. As a woman who did not grow up having to physically protect herself from the world this form of martial art gives me sooooo much confidence. Coach Alyn, Coach Elver, and Coach Isaiah are some of the dopest to take time out of thei RV busy schedules to teach (even when there’s only a handful of us). Ladies PULL UP! It’s not easy, but nothing worth having ever is. Peace of mind knowing I can defend myself alone or protect my children is priceless."
