Highly recommend! I’m in Anchorage for work and decided to drop in for open mat—so glad I did! I’ve dropped into other gyms while traveling, and this one really stood out. Super welcoming vibe, no egos, and just a fun place to train. Everyone I rolled with was cool, and I definitely left with some ninja knowledge I’ll be bringing back to my home gym—thanks to one of the coaches, Jamison, who took extra time to walk me through a move I’ve been struggling with. Thank you! 🙏🏽 The only small downside was that there weren’t any other women to roll with, but someone mentioned there’s usually a solid female presence—so I probably just caught an off day. (It was really nice outside!)lol Would 100% drop in again next time I’m in town!

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time on the mats and felt the welcoming vibe that we strive to create. It's wonderfull to know that Jamison was able to help you with some of his "Ninja Knowledge" to take back to your home gym - he is truly passionate about sharing his knowledge with others. We're sorry to hear that there weren't any other women to roll with during your visit, but we're glad someone mentioned that it's usually not the case. In fact, we have a women's only class on Wednesdays from 5-6:15pm that is extremely popular. We hope you'll get to experience our solid female presence the next time you are in town, perhaps the sunny weather won't be as tempting outside! ☀️ We would be absolutely delighted to have you drop in again whenever you're in Anchorage. Your positive energy and enthusiasm make our community even better. Safe travels and happy training until we see you again!🙏 Warm regards, Management Team

Jiu-Jitsu mom here visiting from Seattle and professor Ryder invited my teen daughter and niece to train while in town and my gosh, the professionalism the minute you walk in the studio by his staff and the cleanliness of the gym. The girls talked about how organized and how friendly the kids they trained with were with them. They felt intimidated at first but were thankful of how attentive professor Ryder was when needed. Speaking on their behalf, they had one of the best training experienced at ABJJ. My cousin who is from Anchorage is ready to sign up her 10yr old daughter and ready to be a part of the ABJJ family. Thank you professor Ryder and the staff for welcoming us during our short visit.

I was visiting the gym with my kids who practice BJJ in Florida. As soon as we entered, Bryan, one of the students started talking to my kids and making them feel welcome. He introduced them to the head coach who was also approachable and friendly. The vibe that we felt from both made us understand the spirit of the school. We were able to see practice. It was great. Several coaches at the same time, each attending to a great many individual groups and skill level. Their dedication was also commendable. It's a great place.

ABJJ is an incredible gym with top-tier coaching and a welcoming atmosphere. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely care about your progress. They were also very understanding and professional when I needed help with a specific issue, which really showed the strength of their culture. Highly recommend to anyone training in Anchorage.
