I have been attending Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Ottawa for five months now, and my experience has been consistently excellent. Coach James has a remarkable ability to break down complex techniques into clear, detailed steps. He is exceptionally knowledgeable and always willing to go the extra mile to answer questions. As a woman, I initially had reservations about starting Jiu-Jitsu, but Coach James ensures every technique is thoroughly understood, providing individual guidance whenever needed. Beyond the technical skills, this program has helped me gain a significant amount of confidence in my physical abilities and self-defense. For anyone interested in learning Gracie Combatives in a supportive environment, I wholeheartedly recommend this location and Coach James! P.S they also have a women empowered class !
James! What a great group of people you have brought together on the mats! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming! I felt right at home. Much love and appreciation!
Would highly recommend this dojo for anyone who wants to train or is thinking about it. Coach James is an amazing instructor who has an extensive knowledge base and is great at breaking down techniques as well as taking care of all his students and making everyone feel welcome and included.
Best gym for learning and practicing Jiu-Jitsu in Ottawa. James is an excellent instructor who explains everything clearly, and you'll notice your progress… Also, you'll be training with friendly and respectful people!
Gracie Jiu Jitsu is a very welcoming and enjoyable gym to train at. Coach James is incredibly knowledgeable and can dissect a technique from top to bottom just like that. Whatever skill level you are at, he will help you improve your game. The environment is also super friendly. There’s not a single person who comes in with an ego that you’ll have to worry about. Would definitely recommend to anyone, at any level.
