    GTBJJ is a second family to me. The instructors Gregg and Todd are amazing and care about each of their students. They are always walking around the class making sure that everyone understands the new moves that are being shown and have no problem showing them again if there is any confusion. Being a female, I have always felt accepted and comfortable from day one. The instructors even check to make sure that nothing inappropriate happens and that the women (and men) always feel safe. During drills you are always paired with another student that is more experienced than you, belt color doesn’t matter, and is relatively the same size for safety purposes. The academy is always clean and taken care of. I recommend GTBJJ to anyone that would like to start the sport or anyone that has trained for many amount of time. It is an academy for all belt levels. They are never driven by money to promote people, you only get your next belt by earning it and that should be highly respected.

    Highly recommend. Having trained at multiple gyms over the years, I have nothing but good things to say about GTBJJ. Great coaching, clean mats, and family like atmosphere. I would recommend to new and experienced practitioners alike.

    I've been training at GTBJJ with instructors Gregg and Todd for over two years. When I was new to training I was welcomed into the group by everyone and always felt included. Gregg and Todd always make sure that newcomers are paired up with more experienced partners to help them during drilling. This is especially true for new females. Gregg and Todd always chose an experienced partner that would work with me to make sure I was learning in a safe environment. This academy has now become an integral part of my life and I look forward to each class I get to attend. I would highly recommend coming to GTBJJ to try out a class, you will not be disappointed. I am forever grateful to have joined the GT family that Gregg and Todd have created.

    I started training at this gym over a year ago. Walking into this gym was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I was very nervous my first time coming, not knowing what I was getting myself into. Everyone was so welcoming & very patient with me. Everyone is so willing to go out their way to help you learn. If you are looking to get into jujitsu, or you’ve been training for some time & want a new place to train I highly recommend coming out to check out a class & see for yourself.

    Todd and Greg are amazing instructors and overall just great people. GTBJJ is a clean environment, safety focused, and a family like atmosphere. I have been training here for over a year and there is nowhere else I'd rather train.

    I started about 7 months ago, I came in very nervous from not have any martial art background but the instructors and class is very patient and runs at a great pace for everyone to understand. The mats are always clean, class is always fun. I recommend GTBJJ to anyone with or without experience.

    Our son has trained here for 2 years starting when he was 13, in the adult class. Having him here has been one of the best decisions we ever made. Not only has he learned bjj, but he has gained confidence in himself that he didn’t have before. He has been treated with the utmost respect by the instructors and other students and he looks forward to going 3-4 nights a week. Greg & Todd have been great role models for him and they have helped him improve in other areas like the classroom and his high school wrestling. The facility is always clean and well organized, and I always see them clean the mats in between each class.

    I've had a great experience with GT BJJ. I've Won some matches in two competitions that I've competed in so far and went to a few seminars with some awesome coaches and trainers. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to get started in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I started when I was 17 years old and I'm still here!

    I have been training here for over 2 years and nothing but great things to say about GT BJJ! Todd and Gregg are both excellent instructors who take the time to make sure you are learning correctly, and are always available to answer questions. There are opportunities to train 5 times a week which a lot of places don't offer. At GT BJJ there are: no complicated contracts, no specific gi requirements, no paying for belt testing, and the instructors roll with all students. I highly recommend stopping in and giving it a try, all are welcome!

    Been going for about a year now, everyone is very welcoming and ready to take you under their wing, great training partners that are willing to work with you on whatever part of your game you're trying to get better at. The instructors Todd and Greg are extremely knowledgeable and more importantly they really care about the martial art and the people. Overall great and fun environment.
