I couldn't recommend this gym any more. In 20 years of Jiu-Jitsu, I have trained at a handful of gyms. This is hands-down the best place I've ever been. All the instructors are patient enough for first timers and knowledgeable enough to prepare professional athletes for competition at the highest level. Everyone who walks through the door is welcomed and treated with respect. I don't consider myself a trusting person. But I brought my wife and two children to train here. I did this because I trust each and every one of the instructors to keep them safe in their classes.

I decided to join 10th Planet Allentown because of my son’s love and passion for BJJ and on the personal level I’m always looking forward to the next class.
Jon, Quin and Ardis are top notch coaches,
Friendly environment, suits for all ages, amazing training, affordable prices.. I can keep going on and on but don’t believe me just stop by for a class and I encourage you to ask the members about the school and I guarantee you that this is 100% the best school in the area.

10th Planet Allentown is my favorite place to train and in fact, I drive over an hour one way to get there. Jon is a world class instructor and has also built an amazing team of coaches for all aspects of mixed martial arts. Novice to Pro, wherever you’re at in your training journey, you’re in the right place at 10th Planet Allentown.

Really great instructors!
I'll be clear, I don't go to this gym, but I go to the 10th Planet in Bethlehem and many of the instructors work at both locations so I can fairly share that they really have a strong group of guys looking to help you level up and have fun 💪

I can’t say enough great things about this gym. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed like family. The atmosphere is positive, supportive, and inclusive whether you’re a beginner or an experienced practitioner, you’ll feel right at home.
Thor, the head instructor and black belt, is truly exceptional. His knowledge of jiu-jitsu is on another level, and he has a rare gift for teaching. He breaks things down clearly, making even the most complex techniques easy to understand and apply. On top of that, he’s one of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet. He creates an environment where everyone feels respected, encouraged, and motivated to grow.
If you’re looking for a place to train, learn, and be part of a great community, this is the gym. Highly recommend!

I started training at 10th planet Allentown in 2019 and I was hooked immediately by the welcoming environment, the enthusiastic coaches, and the talent of the martial artists. I also started my kickboxing journey at 10p Allentown and my beginner nerves were eased by the one of a kind fun loving energy of the head striking coach Ardis Smith and the protective and caring environment he creates. I have seen many gyms that lack an inclusive, safe, ego-free culture, and in my opinion the best thing about Atown is the culture they have built which allows for high intensity competition while always keeping student safety and well being at the forefront. 10p Allentown is great for everybody from casual students just looking for a fun source of exercise to competitive athletes looking to train with other high level students and knowledgeable coaches. 10p Allentown started as my gym and now it’s my home.

My husband, myself, and my daughter have all trained here and we absolutely love it! Not only are the instructors incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, but they also care deeply about creating a space where everyone feels welcomed.. and it shows! The community that we’ve found here is irreplaceable. So thankful we found this spot. I highly recommend it for the whole family!

This is a great gym. The facility is very clean and the coaches are adamant about proper hygiene. I’ve trained mostly with Ardis in the kickboxing class. He’s a terrific coach who brings a great enthusiasm for the sport and for each students personal growth. Ardis creates a safe and fun environment for people of all skill levels to train. I could not speak more highly of this gym, if you’re looking to train in the Lehigh Valley this is the place to be!

I've been doing Jui-Jitsu for one year, learning from mentors trained under the owner and coaches of 10p Allentown, & have come to hold these people in the highest regard. I had the pleasure of joining them on a recent trip to 10p Allentown and found the gym to have a competitive, welcoming & friendly atmosphere.
Jui-Jitsu can be intimidating and challenges people to find ways to approach and solve problems, both on the mats in our personal lives.
It's been my experience that the coaches, mentors and friends I've made here are the one's a responsible and dedicated person would want to have in their lives; as well as the one's they care about.
I sincerely hope that you consider visiting 10p Allentown and work to make the type of connections that have helped me change my life for the better.... looking forward to seeing you on the mats!
Sincerely,
Vinny

Highly recommend this school. The owner and main instructor is one of the best IN THE WORLD. Super high level instruction from all coaches, not to mention the amazing community and support from your teammates. I used to drive 1 hour each way to train at this school for years and I still visit when possible. I can’t say enough good things about this school and instructors. Definitely recommend specifically if you are interested in learning and competing in jiu jitsu.

This is an amazing place, especially if you’re a newbie wondering if you should start taking lessons. I started coming here because of my boyfriend and I think the community here is so great and welcoming, the coach here is an enthusiastic and humorous guy, overall a guy with a great personality that makes you wanna come back next time. I can’t wait to improve my skills in kickboxing, boxing and maybe further myself into mma here. It’s a wonderful place to learn, grow and meet new people!!

I've been coming to tenth planet since they were located near dorney Park. since then, the classes have grown a ton but the attention and teaching has stayed the same if not improved. they have a ton of really experienced coaches who keep safety in mind. I've never been in a situation where I felt uncomfortable or pressured into sparring, or doing Dutch drills where people throw on your guard compared to pads. ardis the striking coach is an active MMA fighter and likes to teach Dutch kickboxing. they have other people in the gym who take over sometimes and focus on boxing or even do muay thai. overall, if you're looking for a good place to start learning ju jitsu, muay thai, kickboxing, or mma this is your place to go. I've been coming here for about 3 Years now, and can proudly call the guys and girls at tenth planet my family! OSS

Excellent atmosphere, great instruction and a nice verity of classes.
I’ve been training at 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Allentown for about a year now, and it’s an awesome place! The atmosphere is super friendly, and the people here are great everyone is welcoming and supportive. The coaching is top-notch, and there’s a strong sense of community. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced, this is a great place to train and improve. Highly recommend!
My son has been attending 10P Allentown for the past six months, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The instructors — Jon, Quin, and Kevin — are absolutely fantastic. They go above and beyond to ensure that every student not only understands the techniques but also feels supported and motivated. Their patience and dedication are truly commendable.
What really impressed me was how quickly my son gained confidence and started performing well. In just two months, he’s not only learning but genuinely enjoying every class. The positive and encouraging atmosphere at the gym makes all the difference. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a top-notch jiu-jitsu program!
Tried free trial kickboxing today, and they offered me a second free day with jiu jitsu. Place is well maintained, coaches are helpful, members are chill, and overall I would recommend to anyone looking to try out kickboxing or jiu jitsu! Definitely will be becoming a member after my experience there.
The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely care about helping you improve, no matter your skill level. They focus on technique, but also emphasize building strength and conditioning, which has been a game changer for me.
Every time I visit Allentown to see family, I make it a point to train at 10th Panet Jiu Jitsu, and it never disappoints! I primarily attend their kickboxing classes, and the experience is always top-notch. The culture here is incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes it easy to feel at home even as a visitor.
As a female, feeling safe in a training environment is very important to me, and this gym excels in that aspect. The instructors and members are respectful and create a supportive atmosphere. The quality of the training is excellent, with a perfect balance between technical drills and sparring sessions. Whether you're looking to sharpen your skills or get a great workout, this is the place to be. Highly recommend it to anyone in the area!
This is my first time training at a 10th Planet. The people at this gym are very fun and welcoming! Excellent instruction and awesome atmosphere! Highly recommended!
If you are looking for a world class gym to visit or live in the area, look no further than 10th Planet Allentown!! Awesome group of people and Coach Jon Blank was great to learn from! Definitely will return again!!
I train here when I’m back in town for the holidays and always have a phenomenal experience! The instructors are great and everyone is welcoming and awesome to train with. And- the women’s class is great! 10th Planet Allentown is always my first choice when I’m in the area, can’t recommend it enough!
This is my first time visiting a 10th Planet gym and I had a blast trying out their unique system. Very welcoming and friendly environment. Thanks for letting me drop in while being in town for a visit!
I got the opportunity to visit 10th Planet Allentown while traveling for work and had an awesome time! Everyone there was welcoming and the friendly but competitive environment offered a great challenge and some new friends.
Jon Blank’s instruction was top notch and I picked up some good tricks and techniques to take back to my home gym. I appreciated their hospitality and hope to visit again soon.
10th planet Allentown was awesome the instruction was phenomenal the rolls were awesome it was a great night of training I definitely will be back. if your looking to start training this is the spot you should be looking into
Professionalism, accountability, and flexibility are some of the key attributes here at 10TH Planet Allentown, that's one of the main reasons that I've joined as a student and competitor. The coaches Jon Blank, Quin Puryear and Ardis Smith have aided me in furthering my knowledge of the key concepts of Jiu Jitsu and more so life. The coaches help guide you and slowly help you learn ways on improving yourself with each class you take. You have the option to compete or improve on your own schedule that works for you. The vibes are always peaceful and fun but don't mistake we take our Jiu Jitsu very seriously. You're gonna wanna make that first move and take the free trial class, trust me, you're gonna be glad you did.

I wish I could rate this gym more than 5 stars. I have been training here the last 4.5 years. From day one, I felt welcomed, supported, and safe. The environment is empowering, with a strong focus on respect for all members, regardless of experience level or gender. The instructors are not only highly skilled but also patient and encouraging, always taking the time to ensure proper technique and personal growth. It’s refreshing to train in a place where I know I can push myself to be better without ever feeling uncomfortable or out of place. Jon and Laura have truly created a space where women can thrive and excel, and I’m so grateful to be a part of it. Highly recommend!
Jon has an excellent gym! Awesome place to train, people all around are super nice and encouraging you to be the best you can be!

Excellent gym with great instructors. The head coach and owner Jon is a world class competitor who was even a member of team USA. He is also a great coach who is kind, patient, and attentive with all his students. His wife Laura also fills in to teach and she is a world class jui jitsu athlete as well with podium finishes at the highest level of the sport. The assistant coaches Quinn, Ardis, Andrew, Jamie, and Jeremy are all excellent practitioners who are kind and patient instructors as well. Training here is a pleasure not only for the high level coaching available, but for the community they have created as well. This gym offers great camaraderie and a team atmosphere. All of the instructors emphasize safe training habits and an inclusive environment for people of all ability and skill levels. Whether you are a serious competitor looking for a place to hone your skills or a brand new person looking to try something new this gym can be a great fit for you.
Dropped in for Sunday open mat and Jamie was very helpful making sure I got setup with waivers and got some good rolls in. I come from a more traditional gym and this was my first time visiting another so I was slightly nervous but he did a great job of making me feel comfortable. Jon was also super responsive over email when I had questions ahead of time.
Overall great experience and will definitely be back when I’m in town.

10th planet Allentown has great instructors and exceptional training partners. Led by renowned coach Jon Blank, the gym provides top-notch instruction and a great atmosphere for practitioners of all levels.
Don't let the intimidating looks of the instructors and gym members fool you. The place offers a welcoming and safe environment for beginners, with patient instructors guiding newcomers through fundamental techniques. If you're advanced, there are plenty of skilled practitioners who compete regularly to help you grow further. Awesome place for people of all backgrounds to get a great workout and take their jiu jitsu journey!
I began at 10th Planet 7 months ago and have always had a great experience with each training session and all the elite jiu jitsu practitioners. The environment is super chill and ranges from beginner to advanced but always a friendly atmosphere. Everyone is welcome to the majority of sessions and there is always someone there to show you the ropes #6am
Great place to train. Friendly, knowledgeable coaches who welcome new students and quickly remember their names. Clean and forgiving mats and approachable training partners make this a wonderful facility. Highly recommend.

Overall amazing place. Instructors all have their own style. Incredible school for anyone just starting or years of experience. Everyone in the school is respectful and passionate about the sport. Highly recommended to anyone, any age and any skill set.
Step into a realm where every Tuesday at 0600, the spirit of adventure and pop culture collide in the most exhilarating way at our 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu class. Here, amidst the early morning dew, we don’t just roll on the mats; we embark on epic journeys reminiscent of “The Goonies,” searching not for hidden treasure, but for the priceless gems of skill, discipline, and camaraderie.
Our dojo transforms into a stage where the legends of KISS inspire our every move, though we trade the face paint for grit and determination. Each session is a live concert, with the energy buzzing through the mats, pushing us to our limits in the most thrilling way possible. And in a twist that would make even “Tell ’Em Steve-Dave” do a double-take, the real magic happens in the transformation within each of us, fostered by a camaraderie that would make any Goonie proud.
Though I may be the ring leader of these morning escapades, it’s Thor, our head instructor for the other classes, whose spirit infuses every session. His mastery and dedication set the bar high, reminding us that we’re part of a legacy of excellence and passion. Under his guidance, even when he’s not physically present, we’re inspired to push harder, reach further, and embrace the discipline that shapes not just champions, but exceptional human beings.
10p is the best. I came in with absolutely no knowledge whatsoever and they welcomed me with open arms. The community there is fantastic and everyone is willing to help one another learn. I've become a regular at the 6am classes. Jeremy does a great job balancing teaching with time to roll. You will not regret coming to 10p!
One of the best gyms is eastern PA. Very elite and knowledgeable instructors. Perfect place to train for people starting out in jiu jitsu or competitors looking for tough rolls.
Life changing for someone who needs a new challenge or feels kinda stuck in life. Cheaper than therapy. All instructors make sure everyone is safe first and foremost, while also healthfully pushing the boundaries in order for you to grow a practitioner. The entire staff/coaches make sure hygiene is a priority as well and everyone is very supportive of one another’s progress and goals, whatever they may be.
My whole family trains here. My 12 year old daughter started 4 years ago. She fell in love with jiu jitsu and I credit Jon Blank to that because of his passion for the art. She grew into a strong, confident young lady. My daughter’s love of the sport lead to my husband and I getting on the mats. We both love it and the school feels like a second home. The instructors Jon, Quinn, Ardis and Laura are all top notch and take the time to help everyone. As a woman jiu jitsu can be very intimidating but everyone makes you feel comfortable at this school. There is a women’s class every Saturday run by Laura that is open to all women. If you’re thinking of starting or continuing your jiu jitsu journey 10th Planet Allentown is the right place.
I’ve been training at 10th Planet Allentown for a year and a half now and it’s become a second home. Everyone is incredibly nice and the coaches are world class. Whether you are looking to compete or just have a great hobby this is the place!
10th Planet Allentown is the best gym in the area. I've been apart of many gyms through the years but none compare to it. Jon, Quin, and Ardis make it a super welcoming, friendly environment and a blast to train at!
Joining the 10p squad is one of the best decisions I've made. Jon, quin and ardist are extremely talented instructors. The atmosphere itself molds the perfect space for learning and having a good time. I didn't think I would love it as much as I do but now it's a lifestyle for sure. So just pull up!
If you’re fortunate enough to live in the greater Lehigh valley, you’re close to some of the greatest jiu jitsu instructors on the ‘planet.’ Jon is a jiu jitsu trailblazer but still coordinates his efforts to ensure each of his students have every opportunity to get the training they need in a safe, friendly, and competitive environment. Everyone can succeed at their own pace. If you’re not doing jiu jitsu at 10th Planet Allentown, what ARE you doing?
Jon is one of the best competitors at the professional level. He is a great coach who knows how to make practices engaging to both beginners and advanced students. He has a great kids program as well! Gym is always full of friendly folks who offer great rolls. You can see it in their students' competition success. Best in the area!
This is the best atmosphere to train at. Jon is an amazing instructor and competitor. Everyone always feels welcome at all levels. No egos, safety is stressed always and you progress at your own pace.
The best part of my day is training at 10th Planet Allentown, Great environment, amazing coaching from Jon "Thor" Blank, Quin Puryear and Ardis Smith. I feel blessed everyday that I get to train here with amazing athletes and great people. If you ever wanted to learn Jiu Jitsu you will not find a more welcoming environment with high level instruction in the area, stop reading and schedule that trial class. :)
The instructors are fantastic and provide individual attention even while teaching group sessions. You'll also find a range of class sessions and training partners appropriate for all levels, from beginner to experienced. Overall I am super happy to be a member at 10P Allentown!
Simply put, 10P Allentown is the best. I started BJJ here anticipating I’d attend 2-3 classes per week as a way to stay fit, but instead fell in love with the art and attend 1-2 classes daily in no small part thanks to the camaraderie of teammates in conjunction with the quality of coaching provided. Everyone in the gym is highly skilled, incredibly friendly and welcoming to new members + drop-ins, and always available to assist when needed. Couldn’t recommend more highly. Love the 10P family!
Lots of awesome people. Super chill and inviting place with a healthy mix of people at all levels. All of the instructors are friendly, helpful, and patient. Head instructor Jon Blank is a world class competitor, but still very down to earth. Membership has no strings attached and they don't make you buy their stuff.
I was traveling and dropped in for a couple classes this past weekend. You couldn't ask for a more knowledgeable and friendly environment. If you are ever in the area I highly recommend!
From teaching kids to adults Jon is a professional through and through. My 11 yr old and I both train here and couldn’t be happier with our experience . If you have been thinking about giving bjj a shot this is the place to go. Welcoming environment and world class instructor .
Joined this gym over a year ago and couldn't be happier with my experience. Good people with high level knowledge of their respective art. (Jiu jitsu and/or kickboxing)
I’ve been with jon blank and the 10th planet Allentown family since day 1 when Jon first opened up. He is a wizard of a coach and great mentor. Breaks down each training day and technique down to easy understand what he is showing. Highly recommend joining the 10th planet family. OSS
One of the best places to train on the east coast. A great environment to learn and grow in and an excellent kids program too ! If you’re around here, you need to come check it out !
I was visiting from out of town for an open mat and Jon Blank was extremely welcoming. There were people of all sizes and skill levels and everyone had a good attitude. The location took sanitation very seriously and the facility was well maintained. I would highly recommend stopping in and checking out if you are in the area.
Thor is the man and such a nice guy. Great training and awesome coaching here. You cant beat this place in terms of technique and a positive training environment. Gang gang

Unfortunately, I cannot fully recommend this martial arts school. My impression, based on reports, is that one should take a close look at the instructors here. Teaching should be about respect, fairness, and knowledge transfer – if personal egos become more important than the students, the quality suffers. If one is looking for a school with professional and down-to-earth leadership, it might be worth considering other options. This is my personal opinion.

Horrible coaches that cultivates a bullying culture. Gym was ok, but intimidating coaches with low eq really soured the experience.
EDIT: Owner suggests this is a fake review but completely ignores the influx of 5 star reviews in the past few days from people who have less than 10 maps reviews.. I have heard he has pressured people to do this to weaken my 1 star. Note I am not using my real name....
I came in for a trial only to be disappointed by the attitude of the main instructor. I came in very humble and wanted to add some new skills to my prior martial art knowledge. I accidentally came into the advanced class on cedar crest after accidentally calling the Bethlehem location earlier that day about a trial class. After coming into the wrong class I asked if I could still join due to having experience in the past. The issue wasn't that I was declined. The issue was after the instructor asked me more in depth about my training he totally brushed me off and didn't say another word besides that I was allowed to watch. He didn't ask my name, my age, or what I would like to get from his school. Didn't even introduce himself or his curriculum to me. When class was over he wouldn't even tell me the time slot for the next class. he forced me to scan a qr code and find it myself... when I wanted to schedule a specific day with him... worst part is one of his students came up to me stating that the main instructor was a champion and that if I came in blabbing my mouth about my past experiences (which I wasn't), that he would boot me out and not say another word to me. Honestly I don't know what to say. I've done mma for almost 11 years. Ive done plenty of jui juitsu in my training however I wanted to learn from a school that specialized in it. After hearing much about this school I wanted to train. But after coming in today. I wouldn't even train if they paid me.
