Great gym! Family friendly, safe, professional and clean. You can get an amazing workout and learn to defend yourself here. I really like this place and most people in Helena will tell you this is a really good BJJ studio
I went to my first class today. I have absolutely no experience in any type of martial art nor wrestling. There were 6 men there, no women, all of varying levels of experience. I was made to feel so welcome and comfortable. Everyone was so kind and generous. I took turns with the instructor twice and then 3 other men. Everyone was enthusiastic and gentle. They took their time to explain the moves, demonstrate, and allow me to try both positions top and bottom. I am looking forward to continuing my journey at this jujitsu gym!
Broke down on the road home from worlds masters. I had time to spare so I called the gym up for a drop in. Very responsive and super friendly. Morning class had a good bunch of guys with some great instruction. I would recommend this friendly and welcoming gym.
Stopped in for an open mat recently while I was in town for a wedding and had a wonderful time. Everyone there made us feel welcome and comfortable and we got a bunch of great rolls. Next time I'm in Helena I will definitely be going back.
Great place to train and everyone welcomes you with open arms. I always look forward to my time on the mats at Helena BJJ it’s always a great time!
