"This place is incredible. My wife and I became interested in putting our son in Jiu Jitsu after reading about all of the positive values it can help develop in kids. Discipline, attention to detail, self confidence, and self control were attributes we hoped he would strengthen all while being physically active. To be honest, I thought my 4 year-old son would hate it at first. I expected it to be hard and new for him, and I thought we would be forcing him to go every day. Instead, it turned out that despite living in Houston for 4 years and only going to RGP for the last 5 months of that timespan, leaving this gym was one of the toughest parts of our move and easily what my son has missed the most. Professors Joe, Ben, & Lauren along with all of the coaches & staff at RGP are phenomenal. It’s not always easy to find a place that will truly care about your kids beyond just the income they provide a business, and if you are fortunate enough to find a place that cares a lot you may sacrifice organization, teaching skill, or other areas. However, this place is a rarity in that each and every employee will know and care for your child but also still hold them to a high standard, push them to grow, and provide a high level of instruction. The classes are well thought out, organized, and structured in a way that provide the kids an opportunity to have fun which is vital, but the students will also leave every class having worked on a new skill. We will miss this place. The people, the joy it brought my son, and last but not least… Turtle tag."

"Great Jitsu gym! Super professional staff, very clean and well maintained. Coach Joe is a great coach and has excellent Jitsu. My son and I dropped by to visit some friends that train here and we had a great time! If you live in Pearland I’d definitely recommend training here! ❤️❤️❤️"

"Exceptional BJJ gym with incredible Professors & coaches. The facilities are top-notch, RGP is an exceptionally clean gym, air conditioned, spacious bathroom for changing, shower & lockers. The kids class options fit any schedule w/ classes Mon-Thurs & Sat, Gi & no-Gi. They host monthly Parents Night Out activities (open to non-members too.) They also host birthday parties where your kiddo gets to be an honorary black belt and train with their friends! Ample parking, easy to get in and out of complex & close to 288. Professor Joe is highly skilled & genuinely kind-hearted. He has an ability to connect with young learners & adults to make each class engaging, fun & instrumental. He’s built a beautiful gym with a stellar team of professors & coaches who exude confidence, safety and are passionate about helping their students grow, both on and off the mat. Top notch communication, scheduling & gym events. Under Coach Ben’s guidance, the kids have improved skills while gaining a deeper understanding of why certain exercises are important for safety & ability. His post-match speeches are bar none. Coach Angelo & Coach Steff are phenomenal & bring the right amount of discipline, guidance, and skill to excel these kids to the next level, every comp! Excited to learn & train alongside Professor Lucky Lauren in the women’s only class (conveniently during the kids class ;) There's a real sense of community here, where everyone encourages and uplifts each other. It's not just about learning techniques; RGP will sharpen your skills & confidence while being surrounded by genuinely supportive individuals."

"Beautiful gym with incredible people! This gym has something very special going on. The facility itself is gorgeous. Very clean, great location. There are two rooms to train in, one for BJJ and one with heavy bags and kick pads for striking and MMA. There is a really nice shower, and big locker rooms. The kids BJJ program is big, and growing every day. Professor Joe has a bachelors degree in physical education from ASU, and he is GREAT with the kids. I think we have the kindest, most inclusive, and hardest working group of kids at RGP. As for the adult program, we have many options! 6:00 AM, 12:00 PM, 6:30 PM, Gi, No Gi, MMA, Striking, Women Only… we have something for everyone! We have kind, passionate, and committed staff, from our amazing General Manager (who will be the first person you meet when you walk in), to our black belts, to our kids class co-coaches… come find out what we’re all about! There’s not a better BJJ gym in Houston :)"
