BJJ mom here! Grit Jiu Jitsu is a WELL TRUSTED facility. Structured coaching, positive reinforcement, and overall respectful and kind leadership. My family and I hold Grit near and dear to our hearts because of their values. Grit Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai is truly something special. From day one, they were welcoming, family oriented, and filled with genuine heart. We were among the very first families when the club started on Fairchild AFB, and even though we’ve since moved away, the connection has never faded. Still to this day, whenever we’re passing through town, Professor Sam and his incredible coaching team welcome my kids and me with open arms. The encouragement, positivity, and passion they bring to the mats radiate through the entire gym. They live by the values they teach: Iron Sharpens Iron. Win or Learn. Proud to be part of the Grit Fam, no matter the distance. Highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a supportive commun
From the moment we walked through the doors at Grit, it genuinely felt like more than just a gym it felt like family. The instructors don’t just show up to teach Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques; they pour into people. They invest time, patience, and energy into every student, whether you’re an adult looking to train or a kid stepping on the mats for the first time. Watching my kids grow here has been incredible. Their confidence, discipline, respect, and toughness have all evolved in ways that go beyond just training. The coaches challenge them, support them, and make learning fun and as a parent, that means everything. It’s rare to find a place that truly cares for your family, but this gym does. The facility is always clean, well-maintained, and organized, and the culture is something special. Everyone from staff to students treats each other with respect. There are no egos, no intimidation, just hardworking, humble peopl
I can’t say enough good things about Sam and the staff who work here. As someone who’s seen the gym grow under the leadership of my friend, I’ve been consistently impressed by the dedication, professionalism, and passion that defines every class. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced martial artist, this place welcomes you with open arms. The instructors are not only highly skilled but also patient, motivating, and genuinely invested in every student’s growth—both on and off the mat. The environment is respectful, family-friendly, and filled with positive energy. It's clear that Sam has built more than just a martial art gym—this is a true community where confidence, discipline, and respect are cultivated daily. If you’re considering martial arts for yourself or your kids, I wholeheartedly recommend GRIT JIU-JITSU. You won’t find a better place to train!
Absolutely worth the 12 mile each way drive to be a part of this gym! My daughter(8yrs) loves the kids BJJ classes and is learning so much! It’s been great to see her building the skill with the guidance from the amazing staff. Coaches Elizabeth and Sam have been excellent guidance for her. My wife, son(13yrs) and I all attended the Muay Thai lessons together. Kru Dalles and Kru CJ are great! Always helpful, pushing us to do better and encouraging. The other folks in the class are welcoming and we have never had an issue teaming up for team drills. If you’re thinking about Muay Thai or BJJ, definitely look around and include Grit in your search. We tried quite a few places before calling Grit home and every week, confident that we made the right decision.
Grit is beyond phenomenal. I've wanted to try Muay Thai for a long time and am at a point in my life where it's something I needed to do so I tried a drop in class. I was incredibly nervous, so nervous I almost didn't do it but I'm so glad I did. Everyone was so welcoming and made sure I had a great time. I left the class bruised and drenched in sweat and I immediately knew I was hooked. I'm currently going once a week but will bump to twice and then most likely throw BJJ in there on top of it. If you're on the fence do a drop in class and you'll be hooked.
Grit has been such a wonderful place for our whole family. My husband and boys started out doing jui jitsu 5 years ago. My husband has lost lots of weight and made so many friends at the gym. The boys have made lifelong friendships with the kids from jui jitsu classes. They have learned awesome skills, discipline, and so much more. I started doing Muy Thai class a few years ago. I have learned so much. It is a great workout, something I look forward to every week. Grit
