I just recently started training here under Professor Justin Rice and I absolutely love it. My main goal was to lose weight but it has turned into really wanting to learn Jiu Jitsu. I have never felt so good about anything in my life. I feel energized throughout the day and look forward to going to the gym to take the next step. Professor Justin is an excellent teacher and an expert in his craft. He breaks things down so anyone can understand it. Every other student I’ve met so far has been friendly, encouraging, positive and supportive. If you’re looking to find a great Jiu Jitsu academy this is the only place in my opinion.
Avant Garde is the real deal. As another reviewer stated, Professor Justin scaffolds each lesson. He teaches you a small part, has you practice it, then he adds another part that builds off of it, and he has your practice it. It’s amazing to see how he fits the puzzle pieces together for you, all at a pace a beginner can understand. Not only is he exceptionally talented at Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, he is even more talented as a teacher. Everyone at the academy is friendly and helpful. If you are looking to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the Amarillo/Canyon area, you shouldn’t look anywhere else.
Absolutely love this place. The leadership and examples set by Professor Justin and Brooke are unmatched. They relate with the kids and keep it fun putting things into terms they understand. The discipline mentally and physically our child has learned here is priceless and go far beyond the mat. Thankful to have found Avant Garde. If you are wanting to explore something new they have both adult and children's classes learning the sport and art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
My wife and I have trained in many gyms and love to see passionate instructors who create gyms with welcoming and innovative environments. All of the students were very welcoming and respectful. They had a huge mat space that was clean and well maintained. Thank you for having us, Professor Justin, we’ll definitely be back again!
As a student of Avante Garde you can expect each class to be scaffolded, and the professor will teach you the foundational skills necessary for you to grow as a student, so you never feel lost. Professor Justin is a true master of his craft, you can tell that he really preplans his teachings so that each lesson builds off of the next. Everyone is respectful and encourages you to improve. This dojo makes you feel like you're part of the family, a family that will mold you into the best version of yourself.
