I’ve been a member for six years and it’s been an incredible place to train. The instruction is excellent, the training partners are supportive, and the new gym looks fantastic. Highly recommend for anyone looking for high-level jiu-jitsu in a welcoming environment.

Daimyo is an outstanding academy with a really well balanced group, from complete beginners all the way to experienced black belts. Everyone is there to help each other learn and grow, which creates a welcoming and supportive training environment. The gym itself is very clean, organized, and professional.

Our kids have been part of the youth and Tiny Warriors programs at Daimyo Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for the past three years, and we truly couldn’t recommend it more. The coaches are incredible—patient, encouraging, and great at teaching discipline and confidence while still making it fun for the kids. Our children have grown so much in skill, focus, and character since starting. The community at Daimyo is welcoming and supportive, and it really feels like a family. And their new facility is the cherry on top—clean, spacious, and a great environment for the kids to train and learn. If you’re looking for a place in Tucson for your kids to learn jiu-jitsu, build confidence, and be mentored by amazing coaches, Daimyo is it.

Daimyo is a great academy with amazing coaching. Ive trained at a couple of different gyms before, and none ever felt like Daimyo. It's an amazing place, and if you are looking for the best Jiu-Jitsu in Tucson, then look no further.

My son has been in the tiny warriors for two years and has gained so much confidence and new skills. The coaches are great with little kids. I recommend for boys and girls. We will start our daughter when she turns four as well.

All three of my children take jiu-jitsu classes at Daimyo. My youngest is in the tiny warriors class, my middle is in Youth 2, and my oldest is in the Adult classes. My middle child also enjoys the wrestling class. All of the instructors are fantastic and we have found an incredible community of training partners and friends.
