This school is absolutely amazing!!!! Super cool location and I promise you some of the best guard instruction in the country… the rolls are very competitive but the team are a very respectful and friendly group of people. I trained here roughly 8 months and I miss those guys dearly
Black belt who dropped in recently on vacation. Great space with great coaching. Everyone at form was super welcoming and friendly. Great training and solid group! Thanks for the training!
My 5 year old son and I love Form. I trained judo through college but have had some time off, and it’s been great to get back into a grappling sport with high quality instruction and a supportive group of practitioners. Many students train and compete at a high level, but there is room for hobbyists trying improve as well. Everyone is welcoming and friendly, with no ego or grandstanding. Professor Rick is a great teacher and leader and sets a great tone for practice. It seems like a great place for women to train as well, with many very skilled women students and coaches. The kids program is great as well, Professor Brenda does a great job balancing fun and accountability, and teaches even the young kids real techniques. The 4-7 year old group is popular with lots of chances for different rolling partners, sometimes there can be 15-20 out there but the coaches keep them in line and still provide individual instruction and feedback. The small independent feel of the gym is really nice too. The flexibility of schedule and month to month membership is great; we’ve paused a couple times for travel and other sports, but always come back. It’s nice to come for the kids class and then stay for the adult gi class. All in all it’s been a great experience; I recommend it to anyone looking to try out the sport first time or get back into it!
Form is the best gym in Baltimore. Everyone is super friendly and helpful while still being competitive, and it’s easy to learn at your own pace. Whether you come one day a week and or everyday Form never gets boring. I would definitely recommend Form to anyone thinking of doing jui jistu

The fact that they love coming here says a lot about the positive impact it has had on them. It's clear that Form Jiu Jitsu is doing something really right, promoting not just physical growth but also nurturing their mental well-being.
