TLDR: As a member of the over 40 club, I'm living proof that it's never too late to start training in BJJ! With zero experience and a whole lot of skepticism, I joined Claunch Academy of BJJ last December (12/23) as part of my mid-life crisis - best decision ever. If you're thinking of trying BJJ, don't let age hold you back! The Good Stuff: I've been attending Claunch Academy for about 9 months now, and I can honestly say it's one of the most supportive and welcoming communities I've ever been a part of. Unlike some gyms where people are more interested in "win at all costs" than actually helping you learn, everyone here genuinely cares about your progress and is always willing to break things down for you. Whether you're 20 or 40 (or older!), there's a place for Claunch Academy - they've got a great mix of ages and skill levels, all working together towards the same goal. The Details & Extras: For those interested in specifics, Claunc
This is a great place to learn jiu jitsu. The academy's atmosphere is friendly and welcoming to all students, both new and experienced. The culture of any institution always comes from the top down. Jason Claunch, the head coach, is an awesome instructor and an all around good guy. The other coaches are friendly and knowledgeable as well. I would absolutely recommend training here to anyone interested in starting or furthering their study of Brazilian jiu jitsu. Five stars all around.
I was looking around for a BJJ class nearby, and Claunch Academy so happened to be close so I made the call to join for a free class. I came in with no experience, with no wrestling or grappling background and 7 months later I'm very motivated to continue doing BJJ. Claunch is a legit instructor, very nice, also helpful with many of the techniques that he teaches and has helped me improve my jiu jitsu. Everyone here is very chill, we're all there to learn and help each other out on the things we could work on. If you're looking for a great jiu jitsu spot, I would recommend coming here.
Whether you're looking to start or continue your Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu journey, the Claunch Academy can do no wrong. Solid fundamental techniques (as well as some fun, unorthodox ones), a welcoming no-pressure atmosphere and a lasting bond with your teammates are what you can expect here. Couple all this with Jason's cheerful and easy-going personality, a more than reasonable price point, and all the hidden benefits - plenty of tough rolls, free training at our sister schools, and a solid connection to the larger Austin BJJ scene chief among them - make this Academy a welcoming home to anybody looking to challenge themselves.
Could not recommend this place higher if I tried. Jason Claunch is both a phenomenal person and jiujitsu instructor, always wanting the very best for each of his students. Set in a welcoming family environment with loads of mat space, classes are always fun and challenging with people of all ages and experience levels. No matter your goal when you first walk in, you can rest assured everyone will support and celebrate with you as you reach it. Come give it a try, you’ll be glad you did!
I went to Claunch Academy while living in Austin for a short time and have nothing but positive things to say. Jason was an informative instructor who was always positive and explained everything well. From the perspective of an overweight person, I was never pushed to do more than what I was capable of and the environment helped me to push myself to my limits without overdoing it. The people in the class were extremely encouraging and accommodating to my endurance without making me feel embarassed and helped me learn. Should I ever move back, I know I will have a place to learn and practice BJJ and would recommend this Academy in a heartbeat.
