Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Scottsdale

Coach Darin and Coach Emily are extremely patient, knowledgeable, professional and courteous. We love having our little champ in the Bullyproof program!! She has learned so much and absolutely loves coming to class. I would recommend this specific program to ALL parents with littles. They learn discipline, respect, kindness and gratitude along with ways to survive tough circumstances. They learn how to de-escalate, and get out of sticky situations, while gaining confidence in themselves and their skills. The class is structured to be fun, while learning, and is absolutely amazing. Thank you both for creating a safe and healthy environment of instruction for our littles. We appreciate you!! The hubby and I are enrolled in Gracie Combatives and absolutely love class. It's not your regular, run of the mill, Jiu Jitsu school. The instructors go into every detail and encourage smart training so that nobody gets hurt. They want you to come back and keep learning. You aren't thrown into the ring, as a beginner, and made to fend for yourself. You are given very clear instructions, encouraged to go slow, give each other feedback and to stay safe. In addition, I am also enrolled in Women Empowered. LADIES: THIS CLASS IS NECESSARY FOR ALL OF US!!! PLEASE come check it out! I can't stress enough, how necessary, the knowledge this class offers us! I wish I had learned about this sooner in my life, it could have made a big difference. It is the most supportive environment with amazing ladies. The level of instruction here is phenomenal. Patience, clarity, thorough explanations and an incredibly knowledgeable staff. Update: this place is better than ever. If you've ever thought about trying jiu jitsu, or contemplated coming in to watch a class, this is the place to try!! There is a new instructor, Brandon, who has recently joined the crew and he's awesome. This dojo just seems to get better, the longer we are here. All of the instructors are patient, kind and professional.

I love this facility. Coach Darin is amazing and phenomenal with the kids. This place is very clean and well kept. I highly recommend.

Coach Darin and team truly have a passion for installing great fundamentals and life skills while impowering my children to be a better person and having self confidence

I absolutely love this place. Coach Emily, Darin and team are such good instructors. My son has been going for almost a year and his progression, self discipline and discovery have grown so much through the classes and community he is now a part of at Gracie Jiujitsu Scottsdale. He started in a free trial class I highly recommend and has grown to taking multiple classes learning multiple disciplines. Highly recommend to everyone!!!

This is the only form of martial arts my kids keeps wanting to do. I feel this is because the coaches are good t keeping the kids engaged.
