This is the most real BJJ gym. They teach really practical and effective techniques for self-defense and competition. The coaches also help you progress by paying attention to your training, and everyone here is very friendly. I highly recommend this gym to anyone who wants to learn and practice BJJ and be able to protect themselves.

The coaches and people truly make this gym. If you are just starting out and worried about being judged, don’t worry. Every person in this gym will bend over backwards to help you, and ensure you feel included.

If you want martial arts that actually work, check out Wiley BJJ. What sets this place apart is the seamless integration of striking and wrestling alongside their BJJ program. The wrestling classes are great for learning how to control the takedown, and the striking instruction is sharp and technical—giving you a complete skill set rather than just one piece of the puzzle. BJJ Black Belt Head instructors Pablo and Sebastian teach a style of "advanced basics" that prioritizes concrete mechanics and effectiveness over flashy "fluff." It’s a very welcoming environment with a great mix of training partners, from seasoned competitors to hobbyists. The mats are clean, the vibe is supportive, and the instruction is high-level across the board. They even offer specialized women's self-defense classes! If you are looking for a safe, ego-free environment to get better at BJJ, wrestling, and striking, this is the spot.

Visited Calgary and was looking for a gym to drop in at. Everyone at Wiley was super welcoming, including the members and instructors. It’s a clean space with a cool view. Nobody there had an ego or were trying to prove anything. The instructions and class itself was great too, highly recommended!

I tried this gym while traveling to Calgary for work one week. (I’ve been training for years in Tulsa at Primate.) The coaches Pablo and Seb are excellent, and everyone was extremely welcoming. I would recommend this to anyone, from novices to more experienced practitioners, and I look forward to training with this group again!

I rolled into the gym during a work trip (no pun intended), and was met with open arms by the black belt coaches. The gym has a beautiful view with a patio overlooking the street facing the sunset, and a welcoming bright interior. I was offered a loaner gi and was instantly welcomed by the community which includes a variety of talent. The coaching is technical and incredible, we reviewed both standing single leg takedowns and escapes from side control along with a complete randori. The community has great talent and fantastic jiu jitsu. I Will definitely be back next time I’m in town!

Stricking and jiu-jitsu classes are great. I am just starting out and the teachers and class accommodated very well. Good for all levels from civilians to assassins. Will come back for sure.

I’ve been doing jiu jitsu for a few years, but just visited Wiley for the first time and would highly recommend it to anyone! Everyone was extremely welcoming and instruction was great. Really enjoyed the focus on jiu jitsu for self defence as well. Thanks Wiley!

Absolutely love love love this place. Never in my life did I think I’d do martial arts but now I don’t think I’ll ever stop. I started with the free self defence seminar these guys put on and almost one year later I can’t stop. It is beyond empowering to know that even if somebody tries to put their hands on me I’m prepared to defend and protect myself. All of the instructors are incredible, they are patient, kind and so fun. I would not recommend searching around for another jiu jitsu studio, this place is the place. Love you guys!

Wiley Jiu Jitsu is without a doubt one of the best groups of people, I have ever spend my time with. They are warm, welcoming and patient, happy to answer any question, drill moves repeatedly and support each other constantly. The coaches - Pablo, Seb and Matt - are professional, highly experienced and incredibly good at explaining stuff. They also make sure that everyone feels safe and train in a controlled environment. I highly recommend trying this place out!
