This is an awesome place to learn martial arts. The instructors are Brazilian and have competed many times. They are good instructors that know their stuff. Also the community here is really supportive and encouraging. I’ve never done anything like this before in my life and while it’s hard to get tossed around a lot, the community is helpful and I feel encouraged to come more. They have a week trial for free so come and see!

Went to their Open Mat today and was very impressed with how technical the lower belts were. Very nice and welcoming group. Thanks again Coach!

I have been training here for over a year, and this place has become a home away from home. The mats are good quality and are always clean. The instruction is fantastic. I use the weight training area for all of my exercise needs. I canceled my other gym membership because everything I need to stay in shape is right here. If you want to train casually for fun or relaxation, you can do that here, or if you are serious about competing and need a place where you can be pushed and challenged, you can also do that here. The kids classes have a nice fun family feel, and are full of great kids who have an absolute blast while still learning the importance of exercise and discipline. They also offer all female classes, beginner classes, and intermediate to advanced classes. This place is great.

Great place to train! Everyone is welcoming and friendly. The instructors are very skilled at Jiu Jitsu and also at teaching. Awesome gym. I will be coming back whenever Im in the area!

Great coaches and a safe environment. They have a good mix of upper belts while providing lots of support for new practitioners. I dropped in last week and wish I could have stayed in town longer. The gym is filled with nice people focused on improving each other. Thank you for letting me stop by and looking forward to returning one day.

Cant recommend this place enough. Staff and members are extremely friendly. Instruction is excellent. Ive been going to classes here regularly for over a year now and havent had a bad experience yet. Joining this gym was one of the best decisions Ive made.

All Jiu Jitsu, all the time. Great instruction for kids and adults.

A great place to start your martial arts journey! Fayetteville BJJ has world class instructors. Safe and clean gym! The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Check them out!

I’m new to the sport and was nervous to start. Matheus, Julio and Dalton made me feel welcome, respected, and comfortable. BJJ is excellent exercise and the staff cater to all ability levels to keep you challenged and safe at all times. There is no pressure to compete or spar if you don’t feel ready. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Very patient and understanding instructors. Everyone is very friendly. I wear hearing and don’t wear them all the time. The instructors are very patient with me and will explain many time over to make sure that I understand what is being taught.

The atmosphere is great. The instructors are very patient with the kids. I highly recommend!

I’ve played sports my whole life. Lacrosse through high school and up until a thumb injury my sophomore year of college. The summer before my junior year my thumb had finally healed and I decided to give this gym a shot before lacrosse practice started back up. I never thought I would leave something I loved so much in the dust so fast. Although lacrosse is a very physical sport I was pretty nervous to try this. The group here is so welcoming and they let you go at your own pace. Although this isn’t a team sport like lacrosse, there is a very strong ethos and respect upheld amongst the practitioners of this sport. I can’t recommend this gym enough. It has changed my life. If you’re on the fence about trying jiu jitsu for the first time you have nothing to worry about. Give it a shot (free trial) and I promise you won’t regret it.- Nathan Koepnick

Great facility , instructors, staff and environment. Facility has weights, showers, and a sauna on site. Great gym for competitors and casual practitioners alike. The vibe in the gym is amazing with no big egos to deal with. Lots of sparring and there will always be a hard fight available (If thats what you are looking for) . Learn the art of Jiu-Jitsu in a fun, friendly, and safe environment!

Went here for about a year while I attended college at the U of Ark. It’s an awesome environment with the best instructors you’ll ever find to teach you. The classes were super fun and filled with practical Jiu Jitsu techniques. There’s a spot for everybody at this gym whether you’re a beginner or black belt. The monthly pricing was very affordable, even for a college kid without a job.

I came into the gym knowing nothing about Brazilian jiu-jitsu and was amazed at how kind and accepting everyone was. Everyone is really helpful, and if you have questions they are more than willing to give you tips and make sure you understand. Its a good environment for adults and children. If youre really interested in learning Brazilian jiu-jitsu, the coaches will be more than happy to welcome you. I highly recommend you check it out. :)

I’ve been involved in Combat Sports for 30 years. I love this place. Growing up in this area I have been amazed at the quality of competition and coaches that have moved to this area over the years. Matheus and the Fayetteville BJJ team are the highest level around, but are grounded in humility. I’m 43, and don’t ever want to stop learning. The people who are part of Fayetteville BJJ are the biggest reason why I never want to stop. It’s a family.

Great environment and instructors! Highly recommend for anyone

Great place! I highly recommend.

Great staff that is willing to work with you especially if you are a beginner like I am!

Really family friendly environment. All of the instructors are easy going and work really hard to help our kids if they are having any trouble.

I did a week of BJJ at this gym with Matheus and his crew, and it was fantastic. They have a great vibe going there with no big egos, lots of sparring, and a detailed approach to both basic and advanced moves. They offer a solid blend of classes skill level wise, and have them spread out through the day which is helpful. I wish I had more time to go, and certainly will become a member when I am back in time. Check them out for sure!

I dropped in for the 6am class while in town on business.The Professor and everyone in the class was great. Welcoming, friendly, and helpful.I will be back the next time Im in town 100%.Thank you

There is a great family atmosphere where everyone and anyone can come to have fun, get in shape, and learn a ton!!!! The professor is amazing and a genuinely great person. I highly recommend this place for anyone at any level of fitness looking for something different and rewarding to do.

Was in town for work and was lucky enough to drop in. This place is awesome. Warm close knit atmosphere, everyone welcomed me with open arms.Warm ups were really fun, and actually useful. Lots of movement drills in the beginner class that highlighted some serious deficiencies that I have. Not an exaggeration to say Im taking home more from a single drop in class than I often get from a whole week BJJ.Mark my words, this place will have to expand into a bigger location within a year because they are doing a great job .

Really great and welcoming community. All teachers are very knowledgeable, professional, and nice. If you are looking for good training and people, this is the place for you. 100% recommend!

I have been training here for five months and this gym is affordable, has a friendly inviting atmosphere, and high quality instruction from Grappling Fight Team alumni.

I love everything about this gym from the teachers to the other students. Its hard NOT to make friends here and everyone makes you feel very welcome. Definitely recommend to all.

Go here to find jiu jitsu taught by knowledgeable hard working instructors

This gym is the BEST and yes I mean BEST of all the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gyms in Northwest Arkansas!!! The family atmosphere here is unmatched and the skills you will acquire by training here will be unmatched by any other gym in the area! These guys are not only fun to train with but they know how to build you from the ground up whether you have never trained before or are just looking to start this is the place to be!!! CHECK THEM OUT!!!

A small yet warm and friendly environment with high level of teaching. Very welcoming! Fayetteville is fortunate to have such a quality of BJJ available. I know this place is going to grow like wild fire and some amazing jujitsu is going to come out of Fayetteville BJJ!

I love this place. If you have never tried Jiu Jitsu, you should! It has changed my life for the better and I haven’t been practicing the sport but for 2 years. It has literally made me a better person. Stop by and see us!

Amazing people, amazing instructors, great atmosphere

Thank you so much to Matheus and his team for his hospitality and hard rolls!!! Awesome gym and people.

Great place to learn under a true competing bjj teacher who also is Brazilian. Very authentic training that this guy should charge double for given the level of knowledge the instructor has. For pure jiu jitsu this is the person to learn from in NWA. Caveat he is a really nice guy and doesnt judge and is not an elitist which is another plus.

Great instructor and community! Learned a lot in the two months I have been with this gym.

Dropped in with a friend while I was in town, and I’m so glad I did! Everyone there is family, and it’s easy to see. I only wish I lived in Fayetteville and could train with Matheus full time.

Lots of fun with great people and great instructor. Been training there for about 5 years.

Best gym I have ever been apart of!The instructor is patiant and extremely helpful. I highly recommend comeing and trying Jiu-Jitsu, not only is it a great environment but its also great for losing weight and hey theres kids classes to !!

Ive tried gyms all over NWA and I am proud to say that Ive found a home at Fayetteville BJJ. This gym is a small one but dont underestimate its size. The instruction is top notch from a former world champion with guest instructors like Roli Delgado and Denilson Pimenta coming in from time to time. The schedule is very flexible and everyone is friendly and does their best to help out. People from all walks of life train at this gym and its great for families with kids that need a physical activity that teachers discipline, self-defense, and self-confidence. Come join us!

Awesome instruction. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Great place to train BJJ!
