From the reviews
My daughter has been training in the Kids BJJ program at American Combat Gym, and it’s been an absolutely amazing experience! Coach Miranda is knowledgeable, patient, and truly dedicated to helping every child improve—not just in jiu-jitsu, but in confidence, focus, and discipline.
American Combat Gym is amazing! From the second you walk in, Coach Charles McCarthy makes you feel welcomed—he’s the owner and honestly one of the most genuine and knowledgeable people you’ll meet. The no-gi jiu jitsu class with Coach Devin Moultrie is 🔥.
My son (6 years old) and I both train at American Combat — he takes the kids’ Jiu-Jitsu class, and I do boxing. Miranda is the best coach I’ve ever had! The gym is always super clean, organized, and has such a great atmosphere. Highly recommend — best gym around!
Whether your looking to compete, get in shape or learn self defense this gym has it all and under leadership of World champion coaches. My kids attend and love it. This is not only a gym, this place and the people have become family.
New to BJJ? Start at American Combat Gym
American Combat Gym comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first BJJ class at American Combat Gym
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
