Out of all the Gracie Jiu Jitsu locations I’ve been to, Gracie Jiu Jitsu Indianapolis is my favorite! I waited for a whole year when I moved to Indy from Arizona for a Certified Training Center of the Gracie Jiu Jitsu self defense program to open up in the Indianapolis area, and boy was it worth the wait!! The curriculum is outstanding and Coach James (a jiu jitsu black belt) is an absolute pleasure to learn from due to his knowledge, enthusiasm, patience, and friendliness. All the classes are structured in a way so that ANYONE completely new to jiu-jitsu and wanting to learn the most effective way to defend yourself and your loved ones can just show up and have a great time with some other new and experienced people alike. There’s also a super generous 10 day free trial period that you can take advantage of with no risk to you to see how you like it! Every person I’ve trained with here have been great to work with and really helpful in
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Indianapolis is absolutely life-changing. From the moment you walk into Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Indianapolis, you can feel that this place is special. The atmosphere is welcoming, professional, and empowering—whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned practitioner. Gracie Combatives is hands-down one of the best self-defense programs I’ve ever seen. The curriculum is structured, easy to follow, and incredibly practical. You’re not just learning techniques—you’re learning *why* they work and how to apply them safely and effectively in real-life situations. It builds confidence fast. The Kids Class deserves special praise. The instructors are patient, positive, and fantastic with children. They teach discipline, respect, confidence, and self-control in a way that kids actually love. You can see the growth in the kids both on and off the mats. Women Empowered is truly empowering. This program creates a safe, supportive envi
As a former Green Beret, I can honestly say that James' instruction and the program outline at Gracie Jiu Jitsu Indianapolis is some of the best that I have experienced. The structured format builds upon itself and helps anyone, whether they are a beginner or experienced practicioner, build their skills to effectively defend themselves and take their jiu-jitsu skills to the next level. Everyone is also incredibly friendly and inviting making it a place that I look forward to going to every chance that I get. They also have a substantial trial period where you can test it out and see if it is something for you or not without making any solid commitments. I highly recommend anyone that is even slightly interested in jiu-jitsu to come here and hopefully I'll see you on the mats!

We LOVE the folks at Gracie Jiu Jitsu - North Indy! The owners & coaches show professionalism, heart, & connection. Our youngest has been attending classes here for months & is learning about himself, others, & of course Jiu Jitsu. The warm, friendly environment here is unmatched.
This has been a great find for our family. James is a fantastic instructor who ran excellent, fun-filled and age appropriate classes for children. Our son has benefitted greatly from the character development, exercise, and self-discipline taught at this location. Further, the curriculum taught is easy to understand and practice at home. Thanks James!
