I love this gym! The people are so kind and welcoming, and the classes are clear, concise, comprehensive, and engaging. I wouldn't want to train anywhere else.
A pristine and inclusive environment suitable for all ages, the coaches excel in teaching the lion classes and maintain discipline throughout all sessions. Their exceptional coaching skills, coupled with their positive attitudes and unwavering support, ensure that no student is left behind. Overall, it has been an exceptional experience for my children and my family, and we will undoubtedly continue to attend these classes!!
I moved into town about a month ago, checked out a couple places and as soon as I set foot in Pride Jiu-Jitsu I knew this was my place. I have been training for close to 10 years and have trained many places, with that being said this gym has the whole package. Top notch instructors, friendly training partners, and a clean, beautiful facility.
As a parent, you hope your kids find something they're passionate about... it didn't take long for my boys to feel right at home here, even as complete beginners. The Coaches have been amazing, as have the other students! The environment is so encouraging and uplifting while learning displine and confidence! It is the perfect balance of fun and learning. I truly can't say enough good things about it! If you're looking for a place for your kids to feel welcome while learning amazing skills, Pride is the place for you!
I took a long break from BJJ and finally got the courage to come back. I'm glad I did. Tony and the school are very welcoming. There's a very chill vibe about the place and it is clean.
The instructors are AMAZING, the advanced students are as well, they all take the time to guide and motivate new students. My Little Lion works hard, enjoys the classes and is proud of the progress he has made.
Great place for a beginner to learn the ropes! I enjoy every class. Great instructors.
My husband and I have been training here for about a month after taking a long break from BJJ. It’s a great gym full of awesome and supportive people. Everyone makes a great training partner and is very respectful. Love the environment! I look forward to continuing my membership here.
Pride is a great place to be. Welcoming group of people with great instructors. I have learned a lot and enjoy my time at pride.
Coming in as an "older" man with zero jiu-jitsu experience was awkward, to say the least. A couple of months into this journey and am thoroughly impressed with the talent, professionalism, and leadership of the coaches and staff. As well, I have met some of the most authentic, genuine, and skilled people at Pride Jiu-Jitsu. Started bringing my son so he could learn from these humble elite! The culture at Pride Jiu-Jitsu reminds me of the Miyamoto Musashi quote. “It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.”
Chloe loves it here! You guys have been nothing but welcoming and can’t say enough positive things about pride!
Amazing culture and program! Easily one of the best, if not the best, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu programs in the area! Could not recommend enough!
I wanted to do an update on this review after about 9 months of training here. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. To start i have lost about 30lbs and am actually in better shape than when I was an active duty Marine. Coach Tony (owner) is doing all the right things at Pride. There are a lot of toxic academies out there that are more focused on running a business and trapping you in long term contracts than developing practitioners. I can tell you Pride BJJ is not that place. Tony really makes his student’s development the main priority. He’s always willing to spend extra time with you as well as the rest of the colored belts. It can be intimidating coming in for the first time, but what I’ll tell you is if you come to Pride you will find an entire team of people who’s collective goal is to make each other better at this art form. We all know what it’s like to be a beginner. I genuinely hope to see you on the mats.
It’s a great environment that is clean and respectful. So glad we found it! Hoping to see it grow and succeed.
Started my 5 year old with the Little Lions. Instructors are incredibly patient with the kids and make it a fun learning experience for them.
Just trained here while I was in town for a month. Very clean gym and welcoming atmosphere. Would highly recommend.
We love the staff at Pride Jiu-Jitsu. The coaches here are second to none. The amount of time and care spent with each student allows them to catch on quickly and hone important skills. Our daughter has truly come into her own with the help of this academy.
Pride offers programs for kids and adults. The coaching staff is professional and great with the kids classes. The adult classes are awesome as well. Pride also works well with other gyms in the area and offers guest instructors and seminars on a frequent basis. Come to learn Jiujitsu stay for the atmosphere. Did I mention the offer boxing as well.
Great group of people taught by an awesome instructor!
Get coaches, great class mates.
Everybody's amazing. Love the positive vibes and energy.
Starting this journey in my mid-forties was nerve-racking, but the instructors and fellow students have all been outstanding! I look forward to every single class!
Pride jiu jitsu has been fantastic for both my kids Patton and Jackson . Coach Tony is very patient with the kids and takes time to explain in detail the different techniques used in jiu jitsu. Coach Tony installs discipline in the kids as well. I recommend Pride jiu jitsu for any parent wanting to get their child/children in a active, competitive yet fun sport.
I have never experienced such a great culture in my life as I have experienced with Pride Jiu Jitsu Academy. The leadership is a direct reflection on that culture and it's members.
Pride Jiu Jitsu is a great place to train! Everyone is very welcoming and helpful. The classes are always a good size. Tony does a great job at teaching, going around to observe, and helping students when needed. One of my favorite things about Pride Jiu Jitsu is that they have the Adopt A Cop program that allows active duty police officers to train for free until they get their blue belt! There is no other gym in the Rockford area that has this program so if anyone knows a LEO send them over to Pride to help them learn how to better defend themselves and keep the situation as safe as possible.
Pride Jiu-jitsu is great! I’ve been going for two months now and I don’t regret signing up. Coach Ingara is a great instructor who is clear, precise, and helpful. Everyone that attends is very friendly and welcoming.
Friendly people that are a blast rolling with. Will definitely go back
