Straight Blast Gym Atlanta BJJ

"My first martial arts gym since I was 8.. my favorite gym and people! Lawson and Carson are my favorite coaches! The people here are so nice and respectful and I always have a good time during training. I’m here everyday it’s my home away from home."

"Absolutely love my experience here! I've only taken the fundamentals classes so far, but even from this early stage, I can tell that the gym has a strong traditional background, which was exactly what I was looking for. As someone who's always been very involved in my gym community, I can definitely feel the sense of camaraderie here. Even in the fundamentals, there's a real community vibe, which is rare in those classes where it’s usually more about individual development. The coaches are fantastic—they break things down in a way that's easy to follow and really make sure everyone is getting the attention they need. I also appreciate the structure here. Unlike other gyms I've been to where the training felt a bit random, here there’s a clear focus on progression, which helps me sharpen my skills more effectively."

"Best place to train BJJ in Atlanta. Great community and coaches/leadership. Spent over a year there and it will always be a treasured part of my BJJ journey. Massive respect for Coach Phil and the culture he’s built at this gym as well as the Buford location. Highly recommend."

"I was a member here for approximately a year. I can’t speak highly enough of this gym’s atmosphere, coaches, & fellow BJJ enthusiasts. I really appreciate the foundational classes that give you the foundation (pun intended) that you need before moving to intermediate. This was also a good start as you meet your new brothers & sisters that you’ll journey with as you progress basically like meeting other freshman in college. The wife and I moved to Dallas, TX so im currently finding my new gym but SBG Atlanta will always be my home. Thanks for igniting this fire in me SBG i’ll keep this flame lit and the mats sweaty in your honor."
