Betty and Ed are amazing! They have embraced my 2 boys and our challenges no hesitations at all. My older son even had a one on one with Ed and their daughter and he was able to learn some new techniques and to be able to feel more comfortable and confident in class! Highly recommend Cactus Jui Jitsu!

Cactus Jiu Jitsu is amazing. They help build self confidence. Coach Ed is very kind, patient, and always positive working to strengthen the kids and overcome their weaknesses. The kids always look forward to it. Thank you Ed & Betty keep up the work.

Coach Ed is really great with the kids. He explains everything in ways they can easily understand, he has the kids contribute to the lessons and he shows so much patience. The class is always engaging, safe and fun. I highly recommend Cactus Jiu Jitsu. This is a wonderful family Academy!

We love Cactus Jiu Jitsu Academy. Ed is a great master and he is perfect with kids. He is calm and very patient. He involves the kids in every step. I truly recommend Cactus Jiu Jitsu Academy.

Ive been training here since they opened. One of the many things I love about training at Cactus JJ is the focus on safety especially for students new to Gracie Jiu Jitsu. Ive trained at several academies over the years and know theres nothing worse than training with careless or aggressive students; you wont find that here. I love the Pedro Sauer Affiliations attention to the finer details of the arts technique, youll notice a major improvement in your self defense confidence.

I had an opportunity to train at Cactus BJJ with Coach Ed while traveling for work. I was very impressed by both the cleanliness and decoration of the gym, and the quality of the instruction. The class was very interesting and educational, and above all, FUN! I highly recommend Cactus BJJ to anyone in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area!

Awesome school, Ed genuinely cares about his students progress and information retention. Thing I love the most about this school is the emphasis on street safety, instead of focusing only on sport jiu jitsu.

Ed focuses on self protection which is the power of bjj. Ed is a Pedro Sauer trained black belt so the level of detail is beautiful. Im a 45 year old blue belt and I appreciate the technical focus, the focus on safety and the great training partners at Cactus BJJ. Im glad to be at this school.
