From the reviews

Best gym in area. Coaches are very knowledgeable and are great teachers. This gym is appropriate for all ages and skill levels. As a beginner Masters Boxer I feel I get the same instruction as the young bulls in the gym. Anyone who has been to any boxing gyms know that this is not the case most places.

★★★★★ — Brian, Jul 2017

I can't say enough great things about this place. In 9 months I went from a chunky truck driver to an in shape NAGA gold medalist, and an IBJJF Bronze medalist, the results speak for themselves. I'm humbled and very proud to be a part of the family at Temple Underground Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Boxing.

★★★★★ — Jonathan, May 2023

My husband and two boys (7 and 4) have been training here and they love it. The coaches are great, they know jiu jitsu and how to teach it well. They are awesome with the kids classes, and offer training for competitions when the time is right. If you are interested in classes just stop by and watch sometime!

★★★★★ — Hannah, May 2023

Your first BJJ class at Temple Underground Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

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.

BJJ is a contact sport. Ease in, tap early and often, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
