"Absolutely Awesome BJJ Gym! I can’t say enough good things about this place. The quality of the people, the instruction, and the community are top-notch. Everyone is welcoming, supportive, and skilled, and the coaching is both technical and easy to absorb. I've already seen rapid growth in my skill set since joining, and I’m excited to keep learning and improving here. If you're looking for a gym that’s serious about Jiu-Jitsu but also feels like family, this is it."
"Gabe and everyone at the gym was super friendly and inviting when I dropped in on a work trip! Learned a lot and got a lot of good rolls in when I went Tuesday and Wednesday. Next time I’m in Austin, definitely heading back to this gym."
"Shield BJJ is awesome. Gabe the owner and instructor is extremely knowledgeable and well rounded. It’s a very tight knit group, and everyone is welcoming and friendly. The pricing is affordable and a great deal for the superior level of training that’s provided. Definitely Recommend shield for all levels."
