South Valley Brazilian Jiu Jitsu reviews

Rated 4.9/5 across 45 Google reviews.

My husband and I love bringing our daughter to South Valley Jiu Jitsu and more importantly she loves training there. The instructors and kids are incredibly kind and welcoming. My daughter is on the younger side of the kids class but the coaches and other students have always had so much patience with her. Coach Mike goes above and beyond to make sure his students are successful both in jiu jitsu and in the classroom. We would not go anywhere else.
Been training at South Valley for a while now and can't begin tell you what jiu jitsu and the men that train there have and continue to do for me and my life. Great family environment and excellent real world Jiu Jitsu techniques that work in both street/self defense and tournament situations. Excellent kids program with the best kids coaching staff in town. Kids will learn life skills, respect, and discipline and have fun doing it. Not to mention it's the nicest, cleanest facility in town.
I would like to share my positive experience at South Valley BJJ, particularly within the morning class that I regularly attend. As someone with zero grappling experience at the beginning, I was made to feel welcomed and supported by the instructors, who have been highly knowledgeable and helpful throughout my journey. The facility itself is clean and well-maintained, reflecting the pride that every member takes in creating a safe and enjoyable environment for training and learning. My interactions with fellow students have been incredibly rewarding, and I have met many like-minded individuals. I would highly recommend South Valley BJJ to anyone new to the sport or seeking to train with a great community. The facility's atmosphere and the kindness of its members have made my experience truly exceptional, and I look forward to continuing my training here.
I walked through the doors at SVJJ nearly three years ago. I was really just looking for exercise and to learn something new for myself. Little did I know that I had messed around and joined a family. A family of like minded individuals from all walks of life. The men and women here are welcoming, tough, and caring, many have become what will turn out to be life long friends. Not only have I joined a family, and met many friends for life, I have met myself. I have met myself on the mat on more than one occasion and when I thought I was happy with that new person I had met, one of the others here introduced me to my new self over and over and over again. There is no quit in these guys and I can't appreciate the gift they have given me enough. I cannot wait to get my grandchildren involved with the kids program here. I know that they will grow into hunters and not gatherers once trained here.
I found SVJJ after driving by for a long time and decided I would try out jiu jitsu. I had several questions, so I gave them a call. The owner Tommy picked up and walked me through the exact process of coming to a class. When I showed up that afternoon, he came up and introduced himself, showing me where everything is and helped me find a gi that fit. During class, he made sure to take time to check on me and my well-being. He would demonstrate something and then come over to make sure I understood how to do it. I would recommend this for anyone of any age. There is not a finer group of people to train with.
I’m from AZ and came to visit family for the summer holiday. I didn’t want to miss out on any training, so I reached out in advance to see if it was okay to drop in. I was able to attend the Thurs 630pm class to train and everyone was very welcoming. I learned a lot from Coach Jess and got some good rolls in as well. If you live in the area and want to learn BJJ, I’d definitely recommend this school!
