    Visiting from out state. I tried the Saturday no gi from 12:30-2:00 and it was amazing. Very welcoming. Great coaching, instruction, and rolling partners. The professor rolled with me and did a ton of positional exchanges with catch and release submissions followed up by a pointer. Gonna try to go back in the morning for Sunday 8-10 open mat. Great Gym Oss

    From the first day I walked in for a Rodrigo Vaghi seminar I knew this was going to be a great facility to be at. You have all the fanciest equipment in the world but you don't the people to run it then its useless. Tac Force has World Champion competitors as coaches that have a wealth of knowledge and can guide to the success of achieving your goals. This is a factory of producing success

    The instructors are knowledgeable and world champions. Each care about you learning and growing whether you are on your feet (MuayThai, Taijutsu) or on the ground BJJ ( Brazilian Jujitsu).All the students are very friendly and welcoming. Great place to train if it is your first experience or you are a seasoned vet.

    I started training BJJ at the Axios Academy within the TacForce Training Center as an old guy with no grappling experience. The coaches are welcoming to all no matter skill level and experience, and the teammates/training partners all understand where you're at because they were there too at one point. People take the time to explain things and scale their rolls to your level. It's an expectation of the coaches that the team do this, and they often remind you that "nobody gets better alone." My son is also engaged in the youth Taijutsu classes. He's learning a lot and I've been very pleased with his progress.

    Excellent gym and learning environment to advance your understanding of martial arts: bjj, taijutsu, mma, etc. The instructors are very knowledgeable and are open to working with you, giving you the time and attention to flourish. Every class feels like a private lesson.

    I am a beginner at Brazilian jiu-jitsu. I can’t say enough good things about the coaches here. Their fundamentals classes are outstanding! I feel safe, I learn a lot and my confidence grows with every class I attend.

    If anyone is in the Omaha, Nebraska area, you absolutely have to hit up Axios BJJ at the Tac Force training center. They have world class instruction under Coach John, and the environment is perfectly balanced with intense training while also remaining friendly and fun. Everyone here will make you feel completely welcome from the moment you walk in. I can not say enough good things about this academy!

    I have trained at the Taijutsu Academy and have had 5 of my children train there also. For adult martial arts training, they have the full gamut of training available with elements from the stand up arts like Tae Kwon Do and Karate to the grappling arts of brazilian jiu jitsu. Besides learning self -defense, adults get a great workout. The martial arts training for children is fantastic. The instuctors make learning fun and my kids have enjoyed the classes immensely. When it comes to Omaha martial arts training, I cannot recommend the Taijutsu Academy enough.

    The most encouraging gym I've ever been to. People really seem to care and want you to succeed. They've pushed me when I've given up on myself entirely.

    A great mix of martial arts under one roof. Excellent instructors for all classes. My son and I take bjj classes there. Couldn't ask for a better group of people or a nicer facility. Honestly they don't charge enough for what you are exposed to.

    I recently joined the academy and it has exceeded my expectations. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and patient, creating a supportive environment for all skill levels. The classes are well-structured, focusing on both technique and practical application. The facility itself is clean and well-maintained, providing a comfortable space to train. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced practitioner, this place offers a fantastic jiu-jitsu experience that fosters growth and camaraderie. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their skills and be part of a fantastic martial arts community.

    My teenage sons have trained at Dojo Omaha for 7 years. The first-rate training they receive has made them more confident and disciplined young men. They are both high school athletes and martial arts training has also strengthened their overall athletic performance. In today’s world, knowing how to defend yourself and have situational awareness is so important. And Dojo Omaha is by far the best place to train in the metro area. The instructors truly care about the students and serve as mentors and positive role models. And the students build strong relationships with each other.

    The knowledge in this building can be traced back to the beginning of Omahas self defense, martial arts and MMA foundation. Today, this building houses self defense training, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Muay Tai and MMA Based taijutsu.

  • 5/5 D P. 6 years ago on Google
    No questions the best martial arts academy in the area. Great workout and a great staff to help mentor anyone from any skill level.

  • 5/5 Tim N. 6 years ago on Google
    I have been involved in the academy for several years, both teaching and learning; learning from some of the best martial artists in the area. I've become friends with most of what I would call the community of students who have subscribed and continue to attend the programs of the academy. If you are looking for an alternative to the typical gym experience and wish to get or stay to active, this is a great alternative. Dan Clark, founder of Taijutsu Academy and John Hanson, our resident world champion and founder of Axios Brazilian Ju Jitsu, are always excited and welcoming to new members.

    I just recently moved to Omaha and was looking for a new academy to train at. I went in with my wife and son on a Tuesday morning and was immediately greeted by Dan. He gave me and my wife our waivers, showed me where i could change and let me jump right in as if id been there for years. My son started to fuss and Dan invited my wife and son on the mats and even went so far as to entertain my son while i was drilling. I absolutely love this gym and recommend it to anyone visiting or looking for a place to train

  • 5/5 Michael W. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Jake H. 6 years ago on Google
    Tried out a gym in Omaha to learn some bjj and staff was not very friendly. A friend referred me to the Academy and for me not knowing much, at all, they were VERY PATIENT and VERY HELPFUL and just a fun group of guys to be with! I would highly recommend anyone at any skill level to train here!

    Best place in the midwest if your looking to train brazillian jiu jitsu, muay thai, or taijutsu. Basically if your looking for a place to learn self defense. This would be the place to go.

  • 5/5 Bret C. 6 years ago on Google
    This place is by far the BEST jiu jitsu academy in Omaha!! World champions are made here!!!

  • 5/5 Branden H. 6 years ago on Google
    Greatest place in Omaha to learn about bjj. The coaches there have helped me with my grappling as well.

  • 5/5 Marcus Q. 6 years ago on Google
    If you're looking to train with amazing competitors and great people then I highly suggest checking out Taijutsu Academy. These folks are world class and coach John Hanson is a world champion Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Competitor. If you're looking to start training Jiu Jitsu or if you're already an established competitor, give Axios Academy (part of Taijutsu Academy) a try.

  • 5/5 David H. 6 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Paul A. 5 years ago on Google β€’ 1 review
    Great family atmosphere. Very cool how many children and parents get to share the experience of learning BJJ together. Jiu-jitsu has been more than just a life pursuit of mine; it's given me purpose in my life. It's helped me grow as a man. It's made me who I am. Having 3 world champions to teach class only makes all of us better. If you want to just learn the art, or compete at the highest level in the world, this is the best solution in Omaha. There are people, every week, that travel from over an hour away to make sure they take class at Axios. That is how great the instruction is, and how good the people are there. Such an incredibly diverse and accepting group of people, that want everyone to get better. The other coaches, from the Muay Thai and Taijutsu are great, as well. Everyone is so welcoming. I have to say, the most humble group of people I've ever met. This is easy to be if you're a mouse. But when they're all beasts and treat everyone with the same respect and humility, there's something special there. No camaraderie have I ever experienced like what I experience here, every night .
