I stopped in here during a work trip. Adam could not have been a better instructor or more welcoming to someone from out of town. The atmosphere was relaxed but focused. He consistently made sure that his students fully understood not only what he was teaching, but the intricate details of the moves. I know where Im coming to for BJJ every time Im in Phoenix going forward.

Came in on a whim, but very impressed with everything. I scheduled a free class, and my daughter and I are now hooked. The classes are run with consistent good energy, detailed technique, and development of skills of people at different levels. Also, there are class times throughout the day for people with varied schedules (like me) to take advantage of. Im learning a ton, and great to see my daughter also looking forward to the next class.

Fantastic gym!!! This place is more than just another martial arts studio. Students and Instructor have a close bond and everyone encourages everyone to excel in their personal goals. I enjoy going to class and would highly recommend this gym to anyone considering a self defense/martial arts school.

I showed up for a drop-in training and Adam was very welcoming and accommodating. The gym is clean and spacious and the class was great. Ill definitely be back next time Im in town. If youre on the fence about trying Brazilian jiu jitsu, you will feel at ease and welcomed at this gym.

Theres a couple reasons why my family and I joined this gym. First, my son (6 yrs old) wanted to try something different than karate and discovered he loved bjj. Adam (instructor) was extremely friendly and helpful. He made my son feel so welcome. The size of the class made it much more personable that he feels he is getting the attention and focus needed to grow in this art. After taking my son to his practices, my wife and I discovered that there is no age or size limit to participate in this activity. Adam has motivated us to be more active and healthy. The people there are so nice and friendly. I havent felt so motivated in years and its great. We are so happy to be part of the CHS family.

I originally went to different gyms to try out BJJ to get back in shape and lose weight and to get a friend in as well. Those larger gyms wasnt the scene for me. Everyone had egos and couldnt let it go while on the mats. However I always thought about coming in to CHS since its right around the corner from home and work and Im very glad I did. Adam is very professional in every walks of life that Ive seen. Hes absolutely fantastic with the children and I plan on putting him in the childrens class once hes of age. When I first walked in his gym he was very upfront and listened to what I wanted to do and hes making my goals a reality.

Beautiful well-maintained facilities, very friendly and welcoming group. Adam (the instructor/owner) explains technique is a very clear and logical manner, and is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about BJJ. Family friendly environment. Had a lovely time training here, would highly recommend it. Thanks CHS BJJ Team!

Joined this gym two years ago and couldnt have been happier with my decision. My cousin joined the gym before me and recommended CHS BJJ for its amazing coaching and family-oriented atmosphere. I decided to try it out and was welcomed as soon as I walked into the door by Coach Adam, who is an amazing individual with a vast amount of knowledge of BJJ. I have been hooked since my first class and am always excited for our daily classes. Coach Adam has an amazing ability to teach us complex routines and moves with ease that allow any individual at any fitness level to execute the moves with precision.If anyone is slightly considering learning about BJJ, thinking about learning self defense, or looking for place to get some physical activity, CHS BJJ IS THE PLACE TO BE! I guarantee that you will not regret your decision! Ill see you all in class!

I started with CHS in May 2017 as a beginner in jiu jitsu and only with a background in weightlifting and Crossfit. Starting BJJ was an opportunity to get outside of my comfort zone (both physical and mental) and Ive enjoyed every minute of it specifically because of Coach Adam and the entire team at CHS. Coach Adams ability to mix up positive reinforcement with an at-times stern demeanor makes him a perfect instructor for students from all backgrounds. In addition to Adams thorough knowledge of BJJ, Ive really found the significantly smaller instructor-to-student ratio a primary reason that the students have been able to quickly (and more technically) adapt to such a complex martial art. The students Ive met here are from different training backgrounds (novice to experienced) and have a welcome attitude which has made for an easy transition as well. The fact that multiple families (both parents and their respective children) have memberships demonstrates CHS commitment to everyone in the community and I highly recommend it anyone and everyone.

Ive known Adam a long time, and we met through MMA. He showed me the Brazilian Jui Jitsu way, and is the only person Ive ever gone to for instruction in the sport/art. Ive seen him grow as an instructor, and it has been very cool to be a part of. He understands how to get to know a student, and understand the way each person learns. He is thorough, and knowledgeable(he has a lot of substantial medals he earned in the sport).The CHS principles and core values that Adam has laid out, are life encompassing and actually applicable to the real world.In short, if youre looking to get in better shape, learn how to defend yourself, or learn a new sport, youd be doing yourself a tremendous favor by giving CHS a chance. There is no other gym like it around.

Adam Nance has a great gym going in Chandler. Having had the opportunity to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in a few spots in the US and Taiwan before settling here, I can say that Adams skills, technique, and quality of instruction of the sport are world-class. Beyond the mat, Adam uses his education and knowledge to uplift and inspire the local community. Really happy with the progress of peers and myself since I started in Februrary, not just in the sport, but also general health/fitness. Highly recommend, super happy I made the choice to stop in after work one day.

If yourre looking for a Dojo to train, roll and just have a good time its definately the place to be. I come from Renzo Gracie in Queens, Ny and Adam and the rest of CHS BJJ welcomed me with open arms. I learned some great useful techniques and met some awesome people who really love Bjj. I will definately be visiting next time im in town, hopefully with a higher rank of course haha! Thanks again for The Hospitality!!

I have seen Massive results in a short period of time after becoming a member of CHS BJJ. The thing I love most about this gym is how coach Adam communicates his clear vision and strategy. It is of the upmost importance to him that people are able to better themselves, defend themselves and he genuinely cares and engages with people to help them see the level of success that they truly desire.On and off the Mat, Coach Adam is a solid dude and a motivating guy to be around. Courage, Honor, & Strength. Coach embodies all of the above with his hard work ethic, military service experience and true, genuine care for the children and members of the gym (including my own 4 year old son).No matter what level of BJJ experience you have, Coach will take his time to help you feel very comfortable and will communicate it in a very simple way that you can apply it. No matter what season of life you are entering into, it is a great choice to step into the next level of your fitness goals and CHS BJJ will be a viable solution to help you do just that.The price was right, the schedule was right and the time is right!

I joined CHS BJJ back in July and can’t recommend it enough! Adam Nance is truly an excellent instructor with tons of knowledge in Jiu Jitsu. It show he truly cares about his students. I haven’t met an instructor anywhere that has the patience and dedication as Adam. During the last few months I can tell I’ve grown as a person both at the gym and in my personal life. I feel stronger mentally and physically. I’m sure that as long as I live in the valley, I’ll call CHS BJJ my Jiu Jitsu home.

So my baby girl, (9), has been going for about 6 months now. When she started bjj she was having a real hard time focusing and doing school work. I havent had a single phone call or bad report in months now. Even her teacher said she was glad I had her in bjj now. She has done amazing both at school and with her bjj class. Thank you Adam.My 3 yr old also is training now, and is soaking it in like a sponge.

My name is sam. I have been training at chs bjj gym for a few months already. I absolutely love training here. I have learned so much. I have trained with two previous gyms in the past, ive learned more from coach adam and my team at chs, than both the old gyms combined, in the short time ive been here. Im so impressed with adams ability to teach. Learning comes easy with a coach who loves what he does. Amazing attitude, fun environment, great students just an all around great bjj gym. I will not choose another place to train as long as adam is still teaching. Thank you adam and my fellow teamates.

I have been attending adult classes at CHS BJJ for a little more than a month now. I have always had an interest in learning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu but Ive always created some excuse to talk myself out of it. Luckily for me, a friend of mine was training here and invited me in for the free class. I was hooked, instantly. The environment in my first class, and every class after, was always welcoming. Coach Adam Nance makes every class fun, enjoyable, and most importantly educational. He uses his experience and knowledge to break down complicated moves and really focuses on helping us all get better. His vast knowledge and passion for BJJ shines through in his ability to teach not only adults, but children as well.After a month of attending as an adult, I signed my daughter up for the early achievers class and she absolutely loves it. She looks forward to the classes and even shows a desire for me to train with her at home. For a five year old child to show so much excitement about practicing something like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, just speaks volumes for Adams ability as a coach. Im very happy with my decision to finally stop making excuses, and to start training at CHS BJJ. I cant recommend CHS BJJ and Coach Adam Nance enough.

For the longest time I’ve been considering Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, but never found a place where I felt truly comfortable to give it an honest shot. As a woman in a predominately male sport that was partly a factor in my choice. I have been training here at CHS Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for a year now and I’m quite happy with my decision. This is a tight knit group, diverse in people and activities. It goes so much beyond simply learning Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Fitness, self-defense, social interaction, a sense of community (both on and off the mats), physically as well as mentally stimulating. This is more attuned with my focus and what I have and hope to get out of continued training here. I have never once felt unwelcome or incapable of the techniques I am learning. The instructor, Adam, is quite attentive and genuinely cares about your progress. Other students are quite involved and supportive of everyone in this positive environment. I am excited to be a part of this team and look forward to future adventures.

I have been going to CHS Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for 3 months now. I am not sure where to start as there are so many great things I can say about my instructor Adam. For one, he has so much passion for teaching his students whether it be an 8 year old child or a 40 year old adult. Every class is different and I learn something new each day I go. Adam makes every single class enjoyable and I you can see the passion and excitement in each class I attend. When I started I couldnt do half the things I can do today. I owe this all to Adam as he pushes me every single class. He does it in a way that is not demanding but shows you what you could of done and explained it in a way that makes it easier for his students to understand. If you want a high quality BJJ and are looking to learn and have fun doing it, I highly recommend CHS BJJ.

The best BJJ school in town hands down! The most passionate and dedicated Instructor that you will come across! Adam is a US Marine Corp veteran who fought for his country and fights for whats right! He has an outstanding BJJ sports competition record with medals from the most legitimate tournaments in the world. He has been to Brazil and has helped in more ways than one to build BJJ schools all over the southern California, Texas and now Arizona. World Class instruction for children, men and women of all ages! I couldnt recommend this place any more to all of the Comunity of Chandler! Come in and see it for yourself!
