A solid group of fighters at this gym. I was fortunate to stop in while I was in town for work and the instructors and students were incredibly welcoming to me and helped me prepare for an upcoming competition. No AC in the gym makes the rounds more fun and your opponents even tougher. Absolutely will stop by next time I’m in the area

Update- stopped by again tonight and the team at Ybor was just as welcoming and just as tough as before. No way you can find a better Jiu-jitsu gym in Tampa

Awesome gym. The people are super friendly and the instructors are amazing! I feel like I always leave having learned a lot

- Joshua Zammit

Stopped in for a class while on a work trip and I’m glad I did. The class was long and tough but I got some great rolls in and everyone who was there was super cool! Great spot to train if you find yourself in Tampa!

- Phil Crabb

I go here with my two kiddos and we absolutely love it ! What is perfect about this place is they really take their time with you and work with all levels. Motivate you without pushing you too hard. A welcoming environment not only for men but for us ladies and children. I recommend to anyone looking to get in shape, learn self defense or really looking for just an experience..This is Tampas best kept secret when it comes to a great martial arts center.

I was able to able to find Ybor City Jiu-Ybor City Jiu-Jitsu Club, and let me tell you this the hospitality they showed the kid was nothing short of amazing. The guys/gals at the gym were super friendly, the rolls were toughhhhh, and the instruction was top tier and detailed.

When I come back to Tampa I will definitely be returning because they treated this Georgia guy right!!!

Yesterday was my first day and it was a great experience. The instructors were nice, patient, knowledgeable and professional. Being a woman in a primarily male environment they did not make me feel uncomfortable. The place itself is clean and kept up with. The students represent their school well being that they were also respectful & patient. They also have children classes which I plan to observe soon and will write a separate review for that. For now, I would recommend anyone looking to attend BJJ in Tampa woman or male to come here and check them out. You won’t be disappointed.

The only place where you will get choked harder than your last Tinder date, be more humiliated than a 1 night stand, and still wake up the next morning proud of yourself.

BEST VALUE, FRIENDLY, CLEAN.

Staff are awesome, people are awesome, feels like an authentic genuine training gym. Transparent pricing from the get-go

Also the price to value ratio is unbeatable here.
