on the mat.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Tallmadge, Ohio — for adults, women and kids. Your first class is free.

Hard rounds.
Good people.

Jiu-jitsu is earned one class at a time: drilling the same escape until it works, getting tapped, and coming back Wednesday anyway. At GT you do it next to people who want you to get better.

Never trained? Start with Fundamentals on Tuesday or Thursday. We'll show you where to stand.

GT trains police officers through the C4CPJJ program and stands with community efforts like Adopt A Cop and the We Defy Foundation. Kids train a few feet from the adults who'll be cheering for their next stripe.
