Dropped in for a few classes. Very welcoming and friendly environment with high standards of instruction from excellent coaches. Very clean and well set up. Looking forward to training there again!
I trained at Adamson Bros for about 3 months during a work contract in the area. I loved my time training there! The instruction is high level and the people are encouraging and fun to train with. I learned a lot while training there and I would highly recommend anyone, brand new to jiu jitsu or skilled, to check out this gym!
I can’t say enough good things about Adamson Bro’s. I have been training with them for over a year now and it has been a great experience and I look forward to class every week! Not only has it helped me lose a significant amount of weight but it has also helped me become more confident in the skills I have and has opened my eyes to so many more. As a Law Enforcement Officer I am thankful to have a place like this in my community because the skills taught here can truly be life changing. The instructors are top tier and everyone welcomes you and is happy to train with you regardless of your skill level when you walk in the door.
What a great experience and a very welcoming gym to visitors. I dropped in for a class and everyone was very nice and welcoming. Very high level of instruction that was broken down for every skill level to learn from. Very clean gym as well. Great spot, great instructors, great people. Could not recommend more. I will definitely be back.
Went to the school to try out a free class. Initial impressions are that the facility was clean, and the staff were friendly and extremely knowledgeable with any questions I had. Friendly and diverse group of people in my class and I love how you get to rotate among most of the students in the class. I'm looking forward to stopping back in next time I'm in the area.
I came to Seaside with a student exchange program and only got to train here for a few weeks, yet they were very accomodating. Everyone was friendly and welcomed me right in. The classes had a clear plan and the instructors were always ready to help. Thank you for this experience!
Had an absolute blast! I’m from out of town and needed a good place to still keep my training up and Adamson Bros welcomed me with open arms. I truly appreciate the hospitality! Thank you the great lesson. If I’m back in the area I’ll definitely be popping in again!
I had the privilege of training at Adamson Bros for four years, and I can confidently say it was one of the best experiences of my life. I started as a white belt and was so impressed with how the instruction was tailored to a complete beginner and how they made me feel welcomed and supported. The community here is truly incredible, filled with supportive and inspiring people who quickly became lifelong friends. The level of jiu jitsu instruction is exceptionally high, with skilled and dedicated coaches who are passionate about the art and genuinely invested in each student's progress. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced practitioner, you'll find a welcoming and challenging environment that pushes you to be your best. I highly recommend Adamson Bros to anyone looking to train jiu jitsu and become part of an amazing community. I love you guys, see you again someday!
Adamson’s is the place where everyone goes not just learn jiu jitsu but be better at life. Gratitude, humility, patience and perseverance are on the menu as well as learning jiu jitsu. Their Professors are industry leaders in teaching kids & adults alike. Sign your family up today!!!
The best way to spend a week while spending time in Seaside, Oregon, from Everett, WA. I have seen this gym doing amazing at the Revolution competition, and l have to say when l was in town "l need to stop by to check this place out" Zach and Nate opened the doors with arms open and made me feel like family, even though I was coming to visit. The rest of the team were very respectful and welcoming, and l felt like home and my sanctuary. This is the gym that you see as family and locally owned, where they dedicate their time and care for you. Thank you, Zach, Nate, and the rest of your students for having us over 🤙🤜🤛
Late review but have not forgotten. My brothers and I were on vacation over in Cannon Beach, so to have this place close by was amazing. These folks were super nice and welcoming. Students and coaches were really great people to roll with and learn from. I highly recommend stopping by if you get a chance. I for sure look forward to visiting again!
Travelled down from BC for spring break and wanted a place to train during my stay. Adamson Bros allowed me to join in on their class and welcomed me as if I had been training there for years. Class was great and everyone who attended was friendly. The class was motivating, the instructor complimented and gave shout outs to students who were doing a great job during class as well. After class I rolled with 3 members, each of them were great to go against and rolled safely. If you are looking for a place to drop in during your travels or just to train in general I recommend Adamson Bros.
Pros
-Friendly
-Safe
-Supportive
-Relaxed environment
-Great artwork
-Very unique gym layout and style
-Free drop in for guests
Cons
-My body is sore
Great vibes in the gym, great instruction and great rolls. The owners and everyone were all super friendly. Everyone trained with everyone. The higher belts helped the lower belts. Everyone genuinely enjoyed being there. Do yourself a favour and make it a point to train here!
World class jiu jitsu gym.
Community 10/10
Instruction 10/10
Competition level 10/10
Highly recommend for all levels. These guys know the way to just stay fit or become a world class competition blackbelt it’s what you make of it 💪
This is a fantastic choice to start down your Jui Jitsu path. The owners Zach and Nate are wonderful. There calming demeanor and a high level of professionalism helps there students unlock there true potential. The students and professors are very welcoming and help you level up together as whole. I was surprised that the class was about 1/3 of women. I highly recommend this to all, no matter the age or body type.
Came in from out of town and these guys were extremely welcoming. The BJJ is top notch, give this place a try if you’re looking for a home away from home.
Great place to train when you're visiting the coast! Everyone is very welcoming to guests from white to black belt. Quality instruction, great vibes. Definitely made Seaside my new go to coastal town when I'm deciding where to vacation. And no mat fee!
Came in from out of town and was received with open arms. The academy was great and the people were even better. Thank you for having me and will definitely return when I come back to Oregon. Highly recommended for the traveling Jiu jitsero!
Dropped in for a couple days to train in August. The facility is incredibly nice. Tons of space at two levels. Clean locker rooms. Great ventilation. And a convenient location just off Hwy 101.
The coaches are welcoming, super knowledgeable, and well organized. They didn't even charge me as a visitor. They just love when people come by and train. It's really is a testament of their dedication to the sport.
The level of skill is top-notch. I was especially impressed by the efficiency and effectiveness of their pressure passing game. Definitely added to my toolbox by training with the Adamson Bros.
If you're visiting the area, I highly recommend dropping by and training their awesome group of students. If you live in the area, I highly recommend you start training there. This level of skill and knowledge is hard to find, especially in smaller towns. So, take advantage of the resource. Jiu Jitsu lowers your stress levels. And it improves your movement, confidence, and cognition.
You'll really enjoy your experience here. I definitely will be coming back.
Special thanks to Zach for lending me a Gi.
Visited for an open mat, amazing and welcoming experience. Competitive adult rolls for all skill levels, as well as supervised rolls for children. Even let me borrow a belt. Would definitely recommend!
We spend a month each summer on the Oregon coast. Our four year old son has been doing Tae Kwon Do, so I wanted to find him an opportunity to do martial arts during the month away from home.
Adamson Brothers Jiu Jitsu Academy in Seaside turned out to be the perfect solution. The instructors are great, really seem to enjoy working with kids, and promote good life skills along with the Jiu Jitsu.
Our son made some new friends, looked forward to every class, and gained confidence and skills.
We will certainly be back next summer!
Stopped in as a old broken, out of town brown belt. I was immediately greeted by the owner/professor, the gym is immaculate and has a large changing area. There’s plenty of mat space as well. The training partners and professors are all top notch. I would recommend any out of town jiu jitsu players to stop in.
There is an immense amount of care and effort the professors and coaches pour into the classes and students. Not only is the jiu jitsu teaching top notch, the energy throughout the gym makes it such a wonderful environment to learn and grow. I have been training here for just around four months, and it’s absolutely one of my favorite places to be!
While vacationing in Cannon Beach, I was able to make the short drive up and get a great morning of training in. Professor Adamson was very welcoming and knowledgeable. I will absolutely come back here next time I’m in town and appreciate all the hospitality.
I was staying in the area with family for a couple days and reached out to see if I could drop in to train. The professor let me know the class times and I was able to catch a class! Very fun training opportunity I would highly recommend checking them out if you’re in the area or needing to find a gym to train at if you live here. Thanks for sharing the mats! 🤙
Every once in a while we lose our way... becoming lost, stuck or broken. I was all these when I stumbled upon this special place. I ended up staying in this quaint community on a last minute decision to take a pause in life. I was just exiting some storms and in the middle of training for competition. I just previously had a horrific experience dropping in at gym during my travels and was questioning my journey on the mats as well. My coach found this place and pushed me to go. This was the time for me that they say 'when you want to quit or give up you have to go.'
The follow up, kindness and assurance before I even showed up was comforting. When I got there I was overtaken by the hospitality and positive atmosphere. Every Student, coach and Professor was beyond welcoming and helpful. The instruction was technical yet structured in a way that was broken down and thoroughly explained. Everyone I drilled and trained with truly demonstrated what a "good training partner" is.
Sometimes life throws us in the storms and we become torn and broken. Then the storms begin to clear, a rainbow peaks through and you see the path. Then occasionally life gives you a "lil wink," a gesture of hope. This academy was the "lil wink" in the midst of the storm breaking. I plan on making this place a frequent stop along my journeys.
Forever grateful,
Tracy Adams
I was visiting the Oregon coast for vacation and dropped in to Adamson Bros to train. The environment was incredibly welcoming and the instruction is extremely high level. I thought I was going to go visit some other gyms while in the area, but this place has such a great vibe, I just kept coming back. I can’t wait to stop in again some time. 10/10 recommend.
I’ve been training here for six years. Nate and Zack are world-class instructors and their positivity and ethics are reflected in their other instructors, many of whom are decorated black belts themselves.
This gym simply works. Personal growth, weight loss, kids being bullied, learning to fight, or just boredom with regular gyms - this place can help you with those problems. It’s clean, safe, and friendly.
It’s hard to lose. It’s hard to learn in the moment that you weren’t as tough as maybe you thought you were, especially for men. But life is suffering, and suffering is caused by desire and attachment, as Buddha teaches us. You can either choose to remain attached to your not-knowing, or you can face your fear and join us.
It will change your whole world, trust me.
I’m a pretty new white belt who normally trains in California and I came in here on a work trip… incredible experience. Extremely friendly, safe environment, more than enough challenge for me (white belts ftw). Gender segregated locker room, clean mats, knowledgeable instructors… highly recommend!
Zach and Nate are truly incredible instructors and human beings. Anyone who gets to learn from these two is lucky. The technique is world class. The culture they we have built at their gym is a true reflection of the genuine quality of charter they are.
I have been training at Adamson Bros Jiu Jitsu since February 2018. It has such a great group of people that it quickly becomes a family type of atmosphere. World class black belts visit our gym on a regular basis to strengthen our BJJ community. If you want to get in the best shape of your life, give them a try!
Two years my son and I have been able to swing and and roll with these guys while on vacation. Awesome experience great instructors and training facility. My son and I have trained at quite a few different places and this is top notch as any. They teach to all levels and just a good group of people there to roll with. Would highly suggest to anyone wanting to embark on there jiujitsu journey to give this place a try.
Curt in Boise,
Having trained with Professor Nathan in...... 4 countries at this point I decided to fly out to Oregon to steal some of his jiu jitsu. I was super impressed by how welcoming the instructors and students were. They were all very accommodating and I'm excited to come back. I would recommend this Gym to anyone. The instruction is world class and the environment is amazing. 5 starts because I can't give them 6.
Top notch Academy with absolutely great instructors. This place is what Jiu Jitsu is all about. Friendly atmosphere for everyone, great training, and the instructors are incredibly professional. If you are looking to get into martial arts, you cannot go wrong with this academy.
They have something for everyone, kids, adults, beginners and advanced alike. One of the oldest Jiu Jitsu Academies in the state of Oregon, this is a total gem on the Oregon coast.
I’m in town for a week and I wanted to continue training. Zach welcomed me in with open arms, as did the rest of his school. I seriously felt like I was back at my normal academy. Very open and friendly gym with a very through/in-depth kids program that teaches both Jiu Jitsu and life skills. Highly approve and suggest you stop by and see them, you’ll be glad you did!
My husband and I dropped in for a session while visiting and felt immediately welcomed like we were at our home gym. Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable. It was a great experience, we're looking forward to our next visit already.
Training at Adamson Bros has been a great experience. With little Jiu Jitsu background I was nervous that my skill level would restrict me from being able to train with people that have a higher skill set than I do. But it's been over a month now, and I have felt very welcomed by Zach and Nate and the rest of the group that train at the academy.
I spent a few weeks training here in 2017. Zach, Nate and the rest of the crew are all stellar people.
I am a Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and I can confirm that the training at Adamson Bro's Jiu Jitsu Academy is of the highest standard.
The attendees of the academy come from a diverse range of backgrounds and bring a warm sense of welcome on to the training mat. I would highly recommend a visit!
I've traveled and trained with grapplers from all over the World.
I've seen many horrible schools that I wouldn't recommend to anyone at all.
So when I say what I'm about to say PLEASE understand I NEVER make a statement like this lightly.
If you're looking for a martial arts school to train at DO NOT hesitate to enroll into the Adamson Bro's academy. It's amazing for adults and kids.
But don't take my word for it. You can take them up on their free trial program and see for yourself.
You will not be disappointed. Rarely will you ever see instructors so passionate about their craft like these two.
I give them the highest form of recommendations possible. Just go try it for yourself
This is a truly fantastic jiu jitsu academy. Incredibly clean and professional facility and the folks there are very welcoming. The mat vibe is friendly and technical, but there are plenty of monsters on the mat if you are looking for a serious roll. If I lived anywhere near there, this would be my regular academy. In the mean time, I will make a point to drop in whenever I am in the area.
I have known the Adamson Bros for over a dozen years and we have shared the mats countless times.While they have always shown great technique and attention to detail in practicing and teaching the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, their biggest strength is their character. Seeing them work with athletes or all ages and ability levels they've always impressed me with being concerned as much with their growth off the mat as on it. Solid guys building a solid team.
Incredible gym with talented, quality instructors, and welcoming atmosphere.
I stopped in for a couple classes with my husband, who also trains, while we were in town for a job interview; BJJ is extremely important to us and the quality of the gyms around played a huge deciding factor in where to take a job for us. There was no doubt that Adamson Bros is the kind of gym we are both enthusiastic about joining. This gym definitely played a role in deciding to move across the country to Seaside.
I've been training BJJ for 3.5 years and in that time have traveled around the country dropping into various gyms. Adamson Bros definitely finds itself on the top of my favorite list. The instruction was high quality, clear, easy to follow, and included plenty of rolling time. The students were all welcoming, respectful, fun, and most importantly had great technique that made me work hard.
The schedule was filled and every class had a decent amount of people training, it doesn't feel like a gym in a small town. Especially as a woman, I am amazed to see so many women training here, there have been times in major cities that I've been the only woman in a class with 25+ people training. Over the different classes at Adamson I've dropped in at, on different days and different times there have always been multiple other women, its an incredible thing to see.
Ultimately, cannot recommend this gym enough!
Adamson Bros Jiu Jitsu Academy offers a really great program for kids and adults in the Clatsop County area and my son really enjoyed it for the time he was able to participate. The coaches are very personable and friendly and was always there to lend my son a listening ear whenever he had personal issues outside of the academy, which we appreciated greatly, especially considering our son has a difficult time opening up about things. I’ve seen awesome growth in my best friends that participate in jiu jitsu here and think it’s a wonderful program. When things are back on the upside we will definitely be signing our son up again!
Coach Tony and Coach Morgan were FANTASTIC! They hosted a workshop for local service industry workers, focusing on self-defense. Knowledgeable and fun, they made our group feel comfortable right from the start. We learned a ton and had a great time doing it! We’ll definitely be back as a community group, and I’m sure they’ve gained me as a client/student!
Took a self defense class for service industry folks and it was a great, positive experience! Definitely would like to attend more seminars and if my schedule allows it, I would definitely like to attend classes regularly. Coach Tony and Coach Morgan were the best and very positive people!
I would like to thank coach Grant for the remarkable job he has done for my son. The care and discipline that coach Grant showed to my son was second to none. The results of his professionalism and coaching techniques has given my son the drive and determination to excel in a manner that demands me to let others know how proud I am that the decision to enroll him in jiu jitsu was next to the best thing for my son. The best part was having and watching coach Grant mold my son into the next phase of his journey with Adamson bros jiu jitsu academy. I was reluctant to have my 9 year old daughter join the academy. But after 6 months of seeing the consistency and never fail approach by coach Grant. I’m am more than confident that coach Grant is the right choice for my daughter to take the journey to succeed as her brother did. Thank you so very much coach Grant for taking my son to the next level. I look forward to what you will do for Markie. My son Stark says it is a sad and happy day. Sad to lose you as his coach but so excited to be coached by coach Tony. Stephanie
I began training here at Adamson Bros almost a year ago at age 50. The staff are great and want you to learn what is being taught in the program. I have made friends I would never have outside of this sport and training here.
I enjoy the quality instruction and the opportunity to train for competition matches if i desire. And, I do.
The Adamson Bros. have been my training partners and friends for a decade. You wont find two guys more dedicated to the art of jiu jitsu and sharing it with their community. If you're in Seaside/Astoria/Canon Beach you owe it to yourself to try out their classes and take the first step to improving your life!
I love the Adamson brothers they are amazing teachers and martial artists. They always welcome me with open arms and have world class training and knowledge every time I visit I take back tremendous amounts of techniques and self awareness. I highly recommend this facility for everyone wanting to change and better themselves 🙏🏻
I love this gym and team! I've only gone to a couple classes down there, but when I run into them at tournaments they always make me feel like family. The instructors are highly experienced, and they have a big group of female athletes which is a HUGE plus. They also always have seminars with well known athletes making my 2 hour drive down there more then worth it!!
Great place to train! Stopped in on vacation, while in Cannon Beach, OR with my family, and everyone I met and rolled with were very welcoming, professional, and kind. The Adamsom brothers, and all of their students, graciously gave me pointers throughout the open mat. Clean, beautiful gym. Excited to return spring 2020!!!
I’m a 38 year old father of two, I’ve been training since I’m 29, the last four years have been at this academy.
Jiu jitsu has elevated my life in all the important ways and I recommend it to everyone.
World class curriculum
multiple black belt instructors
all types of people
community
growth
confidence
Most importantly for me it’s super fun
Hope to See you there.
I've been training with the Adamson Bros since 2005! They are two of the best guys and best jiu jitsu instructors you'll find in Oregon. I couldn't recommend their school more. Stop by for instruction from two world class Rafael Lovato JR Black Belts. Just just in jiu jitsu, but in fitness, and dieting as well. Oss!
I’ve always enjoyed working out and being competitive throughout my life. After college it was tough to find an activity that stayed interesting and challenging for longer than a year. Ive been in to running, CrossFit, swimming and other general activities during my time at the coast but have moved on always looking for more. At one point I met the brothers and talked with them about their adventures, goals and lifestyle and it was inspiring. They invited me to check out their program and after 1 practice I immediately made the jump BJJ.
I found a sport that offers me the kinds of challenges I always wanted. Day to day, I am physically challenged as much as I want or as easy as I need. I am stoked for the journey ahead for improvement whether it’s my mind, body or heart. Competition will always be abundant and plentiful for those like me.
I’ve really enjoyed the community at Adamson Bros. Just starting out, they had the compassion, knowledge and skill to teach someone who was brand new. The coaches really do a fantastic job helping and encouraging everyone. Soon I was comfortable rolling with everyone no matter their skill level, not because I knew what I was supposed to do it how to do anything special, but because everyone is so willing to help you and genuinely happy to do it. Everyone has something to teach you.
It’s a absolute blast and I will be rolling with the Adamson Bros for so many exciting years to come!
Adamson Bro’s jiujitsu is LEGIT. Nate and Zack (owners & blackbelts/professors) are super genuine guys and are very knowledgeable in jiu jitsu. If you are in Seaside Oregon I highly recommend you join this team or stop by and train. If you’re looking for competition level training, or if you or your kids are looking to learn self defense which in my opinion is most important in today’s society, they have it all! I personally got to witness Nate & Zack host a Bully Proof Seminar for the kids in the community and the smiles on those kids faces really showed how good these guys really are. If I lived in Seaside, there is no doubt in my mind that the Adamson Bro’s Academy would be my HOME gym. 🤙🏽
The Adamson Brothers are two of the most genuine and inspiring people in the entire Bjj community. I have learned so much from my time spent with them and their academy is a total extension of who they are as humans. If you are lucky enough to live within driving distance of this amazing academy, do yourself a favor and get signed up today.
My Family journey at Adamson Brothers started in November 2018. I was 232 lbs with hypertension. I am now currently down to 192 lbs and in the best shape of my life December 2019. No more medications! The transformations did not stop there. My wife and kids have also grown beyond leaps and bounds. Both mentally and physically. Self-discipline, personal confidence has become a normal in our household in large part thanks to the Kids program and excellent coaching staff offered at our Academy. I have served in the Army National Guard now for nearly 12 years and have had incredible support from fellow students all the way up to Professor Zach and Nathan in regards to my required time away. I am currently deployed overseas and have seen the huge outpouring of support to my Wife and children. This is truly a lifestyle and extended family atmosphere. Our Academy has become a second home now a days. I could not recommend training here with any amount of words. Just come in and get after it! You will see positive changes in your life almost immediately and well into the future!
My husband Tony found out about Adamson Bros Academy ten years ago, he hasn’t looked back. It all started with him, our kids Matthew, Kayla and as they got older they dropped off... but Tony is all about it. I thank them for providing such a great place for him to go, be part of where he can go and train, practice his art. It’s a great group of people, it’s an awesome place for the community right here on the Oregon Coast. Jiu Jitsu has been really good for Tony. Thank you, Coach Nate, Coach Zack for creating a jiu-jitsu academy. Keep up the great work!!!
Lissette, Tony Erickson
Zach, Nate, and the Adamson Brothers JJ family in Seaside is second to none when it comes to Jiu Jitsu Academies. I've trained all over the world, and somehow I wound up being stationed in nearby Warrenton, OR. I could not be more impressed and humbled by the training, comaradarie, and family that welcomed me when I arrived. If you're a seasoned jiu jitsu player or are just starting a new chapter in your skill and fitness career, Adamson Bros is where I would immediately refer you if you're on the northern Oregon/southern Washington coast. OSS, my brothers.
I love training there. Great atmosphere great people. Very respectful of the sport. Also very knowledgeable.
one of the most important things you are looking for in Jiu-Jitsu a clean training facility and they have it in spades.
My husband and I absolutely love training here whenever we visit Seaside. Honestly we will take trips to train here and then visit the beach. The entire school is welcoming, courteous, and are all around great people. You couldn't find a better place to train in the area.
Ever since my son joined my son has changed his behavior and attitude at home and in school. Coach Kellan has done an amazing job at training and teaching the kids in his class and I highly recommend for all kids to join. It has truly taught him patience and respect. Thank you everyone at Adamson Bros
My daughter joined the academy about 9 months ago and fell in love with it on the first day. Her coaches Grant and Aiden have been amazing and she has learned so much. I love the fact that my daughter is learning self defense as well as having a good time. So glad we decided to join the academy.
My son has been going here for a few months and has been really loving it. I have seen a spark in him I haven’t seen in him in awhile!!! He also use to get bullied but now he is very confident and hasn’t had a problem, he also will protect fellow kids and stand up for them! I also love the way Adamson Bro’s have the life skills of the month and homework. Never seen a program like that and we’ve been to a few gyms. It really does help them become better humans and members of their community. Zach, Nate and the fellow coaches are very involved with the students, community and the families , making everyone is doing good, need any help, checking in on everybody. You feel like family and also get treated like family! 12/10 recommend! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Not all gyms are created equal!
I’ve had the privilege to train Jiu Jitsu on multiple continents, and all over the U.S.
I’ve been to some good Academies, and I’ve been to some amazing Academies.
A word on Adamson Bros Jiu Jitsu Academy:
This is one of those Amazing Academies.
When you first walk through the door, you are greeted by friendly, attentive students, and staff.
Very welcoming!
I feel like I’m family the second I pass through the threshold.
The gym is very clean, and has a nice aesthetic. The constant buzz of smiling faces, and genuine people is refreshing.
The instruction is world class. This gym is endorsed by some of the most highly decorated names in the sport. So the attention to detail is top notch.
I love that I’m always learning, and being challenged when I train here.
Now on to what separates this Academy from the rest in my opinion:
Kids/teens classes!
I have four children of my own. All four children have trained and competed in Jiu Jitsu. Three of my children are still training and competing regularly in Jiu Jitsu.
The training in classes for kids/teens is amazing for mind, body, and spirit.
These classes teach discipline, humility, empathy (for your training partners and teammates) honor, courage, self confidence, and mental toughness.
The beauty of these focused classes, is that I see every student guided through the process as an individual, but also as part of a team.
Each class includes mat skills/life skills.
As a parent, this is what really blew me away.
We can all agree that the world can be a tough place to navigate in our present times. Especially as a child or young adult.
The mat skills teach kids and teens how to navigate these daily challenges.
Dealing with that bully at school?
Dealing with peer pressure?
Don’t want to power through that tough math homework?
A lot of these issues are actually addressed on a daily basis in these classes.
Not only are the kids learning a fun new sport, self-defense, and self-confidence, they are also learning to be humble.
To be kind.
To be disciplined.
To be ambassadors of good sportsmanship.
To be empathetic to their peers.
To take on that challenge, mental or physical.
They are also learning to interact as team.
All of the good things that the kids/teens (Adults too!) learn in class at this Academy, eventually transfer to the day to day interactions in the real world.
I’m willing to speak for all of us, when I say that we all need healthy, mentally-sound, disciplined, humble, empathetic humans on our planet now, more than ever.
I encourage parents to consider Jiu Jitsu for yourselves, and your children. Give it 1 week, and I promise you will see a positive change in yourself, and your child.
This is one of those amazing gyms I’ve been fortunate enough to train at.
I tip my hat to the Adamson Brothers and what they provide for their community, and what they have provided to me and my family.
5 stars all the way.
My daughter joined a few months ago and it has changed her life! I go just to watch whenever I can and even being an onlooker, I can feel the love and positive energy from everyone there. The coaches are amazing and welcoming and definitely have gone the extra mile. Best choice we have made in a very long time. I'll be joining as soon as I'm able. If your thinking of joining..... DO IT 🙌
I’ve been training here since I was just a kid. I fell in love the very first day of training. I remember the academy as just a small building with few coaches. But now it’s a large place with a downstairs now, with a strength and conditioning facility next door and many many more new coaches. This place is like a second home. The people here always come in with great energy and the coaches don’t just teach techniques, they are there to help you out outside of jiu jitsu to make you a better version of yourself
I am 17years old. When i first joined the academy i was dumbfounded by the amazing endless smiles and support that i received. I have just recently been pretty unmotivated and depressed but immediately after the very first class i felt a sense of refreshment. Everyone was smiling and so supportive!! The Coaches are so amazing, understanding, and like family to me 🥰. If you're interested in joining and you do.. trust me you will NOT regret it. Worth every penny.🥰👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome atmosphere. Good vibes. Amazing people. My son has been taking classes at Adamson Bro’s for a couple years now and has been competing for about a year. Through competing he has made friendships/connections that will last a lifetime. I have seen incredible growth across the board with Mason. This program has helped him focus better, work harder, and deal with frustrations in a more calm positive way. The coaches install discipline and respect while teaching self defense! The kids learn to accomplish goals and are very proud of themselves every time they earn a stripe/new belt. The Professors and Coaches continue to push my son to be the best athlete and individual he can be in everyday life. They have given him endless opportunities to grow with the Academy. Absolutely love to hear Mason talk about future plans that he has made for himself based around the Jiu Jitsu lifestyle!
As a jiu jitsu student & an active competitor, this place is hands down one of the top martial arts academies you’ll ever find in the PNW. From the knowledgeable staff of instructors, to the very welcoming family vibe of all their students, & not to mention the incredible training. . if you live in the Seaside area & want to learn martial arts, work toward your fitness / health goals, or just be apart of an phenomenal community, this is the place to take your very first step.
10/10 would recommend & can’t wait to be back again!
The Adamson Bros Academy is one of the best gym i have visited in the west coast, very clean, great instructionand a welcoming staff. I am a Black Belt in Jiu Jitsu competitor and instructor in San Diego, CA. I enjoy a lot visiting Seaside and training with Professors Zach and Nate.
I’ve been going to Adamson Bros Jiu Jitsu for a few months now and I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience thus far. The Adamson brothers and other coaches have a passion for jiu Jitsu that spreads to the students. The atmosphere in the gym is very friendly and everyone is respectful to each other. I believe it comes from the great ownership and coaching staff. One of the aspects that impressed me the most was the individual attention that students get on a regular basis. The coaches consistently check in with me to see how my practice is progressing. Also, to see how I’m doing physically. When I was out of class due to an injury, one of the coaches who happens to be a physical therapist reached out to me. She was willing to meet me one on one to give me some advice that would help me through the injury and get me back on the mat. Due to the nature of my job I’ve been able to go to some cutting edge fitness and physical recovery oriented courses. I can easily say the staff is very knowledgeable when it comes to staying healthy. I’ve seen them instructing individuals on everything from myofascial trigger point therapy to the difference and benefits of dynamic vs static stretching. All that is a bonus I didn’t expect. The jiu Jitsu and coaching has been phenomenal. They meet you wherever you are in your skill level and help you to progress. Also, their is a ton of talent in the school to challenge and push you. I highly recommended this gym to anyone no matter what your jiu jitsu or martial art experience.
The coaches at Adamson Bros are excellent! They have great techniques and don't just teach jiu jitsu moves, they coach students on how to be better athletes, competitors, and people. The students are all really supportive of each other and of visitors. Great atmosphere and people!
I have visited Seaside BJJ several times. A fantastic, clean and well kept facility coupled with a warm and friendly atmosphere. Zach and Nate are two incredibly knowledgeable and passionate teachers. They are always looking to better themselves, their employees and their students. I couldn't recommend training here enough regardless of your age or experience level. Good vibes and experience guaranteed!
I love the Seaside Jiu Jitsu Academy! Martial Arts has changed my life for the better. I now have more self confidence, better flexibility and a more relaxed mind. I can’t say enough about the instructors and their desire to help me understand the techniques and progress in the belt levels. The atmosphere in the Academy is super chill. The students are really great too, everyone is out to help you and make you better. If you’re looking to for a great healthy hobby then you should check out the Seaside Jiu Jitsu Academy!
I can't say enough positive things about Adamson Bros Jiu Jitsu Academy. Nathan and Zach Adamson have put in so much time and hard work to provide our community with a place you can have fun while learning how to defend yourself and others. They truly help you learn how to take care of your body, mind and soul through their classes and friendship.
I checked Adamson Bros gym while on a work visit. Teaching was excellent and plenty of time reserved for drilling and lots of rolling after class. Everyone was very respectful and humble. This was a true jiu Jitsu experience. If I lived here I would definitely become a member.
The Adamson brothers academy is a place I can always go back and feel like family. If your intimidated about starting Jiu Jitsu but passionate about the sport, I promise they will take care of you and immediately treat you like family. Not only are the instructors informed of the sport, they are always looking to grow and teach the best technique. Highly recommend this academy if you’re serious, not only about the sport, but your overall health.
I first went to Adamson Brothers academy full of social anxiety, and without much overall energy. I decided to go full speed ahead, and attend as many classes as I could a short time after I joined. I not only have met people who I know are going to be lifelong friends, but I have gained confidence socially, and in my own body awareness and control. My life changed drastically, and for the better, in a short amount of time. It has been especially helpful to take private lessons with coach Michelle, as she knowledgeable, and easy to connect with. The attention to detail with all of the coaches is impressive, and helpful in learning. It has been one of the best decisions for myself in my life to join Adamson Brothers academy and learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I look forward to my future in learning Jiu Jitsu.
I met Zach and Nathan Adamson in 2016. Not only did they have really great Jiu-Jitsu and were awesome instructors, they are overall good humans. When we moved to Washington later that year, we began to make multiple trips to the coast to train with the Adamson Bros. Their academy is a great facility with two mat spaces. We were always welcomed like family when we trained there and treated like one of their own. I highly recommend this gym to everyone passing through the area and also those that live there. Quality is what stands out about this academy.
Visited this gym from out of town for their 8:30am Friday class, great group of all levels and awesome instruction. I felt very welcomed and got in some awesome rolls at the end! Definitely would recommend this gym to anyone whether you’re in the area or just visiting.
I love this place!! Awesome community, detailed and accessible instruction. I love the way the techniques are explained and broken down. totally suits my learning style. Plus there are always good rolls!! I have made great friends here, and have never felt as comfortable at any other gym as i do here. So much fun and so addictive. I felt welcome and supported from day one and every step of the way, by the instructors and the whole adamson brothers family. I love visiting and training with these guys.
We’ve been apart of Adamson Bro’s Academy for a little over 6 months. Myself and children thoroughly enjoy the atmosphere, staff, and the life skills they are instilling. If you want to see your child’s confidence blossom, join. If you want to see your child’s attitude improve, join. If you want to challenge yourself and have a great time doing it, join.
If your looking for quality, professional BJJ with a genuine friendly and supportive atmosphere, look no further. The Adamson brothers and staff are committed to providing the best experience possible and to make you feel like family. Highly recommended!
I started with NAte and Zach over 10 years ago when we were just in the community gym. To see what they have built in this small community is honestly unbelievable. Packed classes, great vibes and wonderful place to learn and grow as individual. If you are new to town or start to feel lonely in the winter. Sign up now! You wont regret it. What you learn and the relationships that you will gain are unmatched.
As a 3 month participant of the Green Strength program at Adamson's, I have seen fantastic results from my short time so far. The instructors are awesome and friendly, engaging and do their utmost to help you remain motivated! There is a plant working its way into the building, a tenacious ivy that will not be stopped by walls! A portent of the upcoming Green Strength trend that will sweep the world!
Update June 10th: The plant thrives!
The best BJJ academy on the planet! After 3 years of wanting to join and not pulling the trigger, I finally did 6 months ago. One of the best decision I’ve ever made. With no martial art or fighting background I was intimidated to make the commitment. After one class, and a quick introduction from the staff...you will recognize the great value of the skill...and the even greater sense of community and welcoming from the academy. Professor Nate and Zach are phenomenal leaders and they only bring on staff and coachs with the same standard. My Experiences with my Coach Kellen and every coach I’ve gotten to work with has been nothing short of amazing. My initial plan was to sign up for a month and train one day a week. My goals quickly changed to getting as much bjj in as I can and be a lifelong practitioner of the art! If you are considering signing up just make the jump right now. You will wish you would have stared earlier. If they can teach a dummy like myself how to Jiu-jitsu, they can teach you!
I have two kids that attend classes at Adamson Brothers Jiu Jitsu. The classes are structured in a way that keeps the kids interested and having fun while learning. They don’t just teach jiu jitsu but also important life skills. Their program has provided our kids a positive environment to burn energy while increasing their confidence and focus.
My son has been coming here since Aug of 2018, he started in the warriors class, and 7 months later he got an invitation to join the black belt club, and I am so glad we took this route. My son has been having better attitue when asked to do things at home, he is more active, better attention in school, and just over all it has been a good sport for him.
If you have the resources to enroll your child into this class, I recommend you do it. If they are old enough I recommend the #blackbeltclub
p.s
Coach Evan is AMAZING and pays close attention to each kid in his bbc
Both of our children have been going to the academy since november 2018. It hasn't been long, our son (11years old) has taken a HUGE liking to the sport. He takes it very seriously, even more that his dad joined at the same time. He enjoys showing his dad new moves Visa versa. He was invited [January 2019] to the Blackbelt club (a class for kids<there's one for the adults aswell> that is a bit faster paced, more/intricate moves are implemented). He absolutely Loves going to Jujitsu, and all of the coaches are super friendly! They are great at encouraging the kids that they can do ANYTHING and they are all amazing [any skill level] they reward them with student of the day [Comes with a patch a sticker and highfives from all coaches!] the kids always have smiles on their faces! Our daughter (6years old) is very strong willed! So juditsu has helped her home life Alot. She is learning basic "Life Skills" we help her at home keeping her on track, she is alot less demanding and less temper tantrums have occurred since shes joined. She doesnt always want to go to Jujitsu, but she doesnt want to miss a class at the same time. She enjoys it quote a bit she just doesn't want to say it. LOL!
We highly recommend this academy, if you need an outlet for a child who has a ton of energy, if youve been looking for something to help with self confidence, If your child seems depressed (our son has had bouts of depression, but now holds his head amd shoulders high), if you're looking for something to do as a family this is the place to go..it's worth the travel distance. (My husband +both of our children have been in the academy since November 2018 and we all love it!) "I did not join due to virtigo issues I have or I would be doing it aswell"
Our boys have been training here for 1.5 years. The Professors, Coaches and other students are all spectacular. In addition to the jiu jitsu training they receive, the life skills program that is incorporated into the curriculum has been a phenomenal confidence booster and has helped the boys in many areas of life. Our family is forever grateful for finding this gem of an academy!
Awesome place to train at. I visit the Oregon coast a couple times a year and when I can I drop by for an open mat. Always great rolls. The Adamson brothers are amazing instructors and they make you feel hella welcome. Thanks professors, see you all next time. Oss 🙏🏻
Jiu jitsu can be hard to find on the coast, but this gym is likely one of the best you could ask for. Their focus isn't just competition and tournament based, but also cognitive development through regular testing of skills and technique. Including a separate class focusing specifically on rehabilitative and strengthening outside of martial arts, called Green Strength. There are multiple classes each week in each area of specialty which gives some flexibility to most busy schedules. They offer classes for all ages, so children are not only welcome, but encouraged.
I’ve trained martial arts off and on for several years and have competed in cage and tournaments, and so far the adamson bros gym is top tier forsure great staff, great culture, and very family oriented and friendly. I have no doubt in my mind they can take me to the next level along with anyone else that makes the amazing decisions to join as well. 5 stars all the way.
I’ve been training in martial arts on and off for over 15 years and it is easy to say this is by far one of the best academies I’ve ever stepped foot in. The team is cohesive and cares deeply about their craft. The community and culture of learning here is of the highest standard. The gym is clean, the lessons and curriculum are organized in a way that makes learning easy for everyone. I wholeheartedly recommended this academy to anyone who’s interested in jiu jitsu. The brothers have put their heart and soul into this place and it shows.
I started my Jiu Jitsu journey back in early May of this year. The friendliness of the other students and the professionalism of the instructors is what really sold me. Being an active duty Coast Guardsmen Adamson brothers BJJ academy have very similar core values: Honor, Respect, Devotion to Duty (In their case Jiu Jitsu). If you were curious about learning Jiu Jitsu or interested in learning a new life skill that could potentially save your life one day, stop by and see for yourself.
I used to think Disneyland was the happiest place on Earth. Now I know better. Nothing has brought me more joy than being able to share my number one love (Jiu-Jitsu) with so many like minded and truly beautiful people. The energy as soon as you walk in this place is on its own level. The training is hand crafted and highly thorough. Nate and Zach not only teach some of the most efficient techniques in the game today but they present it in such a way that is absolutely unparalleled. I promise I do not exaggerate in the slightest when I say this place saved my life. I thank Helio for BJJ, and I thank God for the Adamson Brothers.
I have trained for a number of years. In Kauai and in San Diego. So it was much to my surprise that the best training I would receive was in little Seaside, Oregon. Nate and Zack Adamson are the best teachers I have had the pleasure to train with. That is a true statement. Not only are they decorated with metals. Proving that their techniques works, But they both have the ability to explain things in such a way where I honestly felt I developed much faster. Jiu jitsu and self-defense is what they’re selling, But with that you get so much more; life lessons, discipline, self-confidence, and self-awareness of your mind, body, and spirit. But like anything else that’s worth doing it’s not always easy, and you get out, what you put in. Thanks Adamson Bros. I don’t just recommend your teachings, I would vote to make them a requirement.
Adamson Brother Jiu Jitsu saved my life and made me a better person. I am a way more peaceful, fit, and happy person from my experience. It's a very positive place with a great peaceful vibe full of hardworking individuals that want to become better people and help all those around them to be better people.
A family oriented Jiu Jitsu Academy that teaches the highest level Martial Art on the Coast whether you are interested in becoming a World Champion or just want to get a little workout. Clean facilities, great instructors and a community and culture that you won't find anywhere else!
