What Our Students Say

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

Nathan Wranovsky

"We had a chance to watch some family at North Side Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. The main instructor, Dusty Alexander, is an amazing man. Not only is he great with the kids as little as 5, but he works amazingly with the older kids and with the adults. It’s not too expensive for a weekly class of team building, character building, and fun. Look no further for some amazing Jiu Jitsu!"

Erich Allen

"Brown belt here. I popped into open mat while in town training with the military and this place was legit. Loved the atmosphere, members were incredibly welcoming, and the skill level was great; highly challenging. I’ll be in here every time I’m in town."

The Jeff Edwards

"Great place to train with very knowledgeable instructors and friendly students! I like to read review before I go to a place and when one of two people who have written the only bad reviews this place have also wrote a 5 star review for another school it always makes me wonder...? Either way, I've had nothing except a fun time while learning in a safe environment at North Side Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and the head instructor Professor Sean Huff is a great teacher, a professional at what he does and he's just a nice guy in general. Highly recommend you come check it out of you're interested in learning BJJ in Tucson!!!"

Fxit Right

"Sean and Keith are amazing at what they do. "Jiu Jitsu has truly transformed my life! The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, creating a welcoming environment for beginners like me. The classes are well-structured, challenging, and above all, fun! I've gained confidence, strength, and lifelong friendships through this amazing martial art. I can't recommend it enough – definitely five stars!""
