I cannot say enough about my positive feelings toward Broken Anvil. Next level technique, and instruction to match. Friendly and respectful. Great environment for both the competitor and the hobbyist. After training at other gyms in the past, I feel like my understanding of the sport is growing faster than it ever has and I am proud to call Broken Anvil my home gym. Clay’s approach to instruction is structured and systematic, building on past lessons while laying foundation for future instruction. I always leave class feeling like I have learned something new. Classes are 1.5 hours and include warmups (non typical, relevant to that evenings instruction), drilling, conditioning, and live sparring. Also, a big shoutout to coach Zack and his fundamental program which accompanies group class instruction and is sure to accelerate learning for the beginner. All around great gym environment. If you are looking for the best BJJ in Nashville, lo

I’ve been training under Clay for about 5 months now and have loved every second being here.

Don’t be scared to take the first step in your journey!

This Jiu-jitsu gym is freaking awesome man. I was visiting from another Jiu-jitsu gym and they treated me with kindness, love and respect. They made me feel very welcome and everyone help me become a better martial artist. If you ever though about doing Jiu-jitsu. Do it with these guys. I can't say enough good things about broken anvil. They welcomed me back whenever I am back in town. And I will most definitely come back for not only the Jiu-jitsu, but for the new brothers I have made there.
I am a woman and have been doing bjj for about 4 years. We are very lucky that our gym has multiple black belts and a good set of high belts in general. You get to learn from a variety of coaches which has provided a lot of gains for my game. I can be my fiercest self at this gym and appreciate that. There is a strong female group and all men that train here are safe. I highly recommend broken anvil for anyone that is new to bjj or to anyone that isn’t into murder pajamas. The community is great and you’ll be stronger and have a better game than ever!
I've been training under Clay for a little over a year and am confident to say that the core tenants of the system will greatly improve your confidence to pursue the kind of jiujitsu you want to do. The environment created is one that is scalable from the complete novice to high level players looking to challenge themselves to become the best they can. Clay's style of training is fun and engaging while being welcoming to all different people from all different backgrounds regardless of fitness level.
