Legacy Jiu Jitsu
About Legacy Jiu Jitsu
At Legacy Jiu Jitsu, we've been building a strong martial arts community in Anchorage since 2016, offering Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, Judo, Wrestling, and MMA in an environment that fosters personal growth and confidence in every student who walks through our doors.
Our instructors β including Niko Novelli and Danny Chong on the mats β bring competitive experience and a genuine passion for teaching. We are a proud affiliate of the Ares BJJ Association, training under the methods that have produced champions at every level. Whether you're stepping onto the mat for the first time or preparing for your next competition, Legacy is the place to grow.
We believe in the words of Theodore Roosevelt: "The Art of Jiu-Jitsu is worth more in every way than all of our athletics combined." That philosophy drives every class we teach. Adults train traditional Gi and No-Gi jiu-jitsu at multiple levels, while our youth programs β including Kids Jiu-Jitsu, Kids No-Gi, and Kids Muay Thai β build confidence and discipline in the next generation.
Located at 501 West International Airport Rd Suite 28, we welcome athletes of all backgrounds. Come train with us and leave a Legacy on and off the mat.
