One of the best BJJ gyms I've ever been in! The coaching is world-class, and the folks that train there are phenomal people. The environment is super friendly and welcoming. This place is perfect whether you're looking to become a competitive grappler or just working for a great workout. Having traveled around and been to many gyms across the country, very few stick out quite like this one.
We have our two children enrolled at Apostle. Our son is in the little kids class and our daughter is in the teens class. Our son’s confidence in every part of his life has sky rocketed since starting BJJ here. Coach Abi and Coach Josie are so great with the kids, a perfect balance of fun and welcoming, while also demanding discipline. My daughter is very tall for her age so even though she’s 10 she went to the teens class. I was initially worried about how she would get along with her peers but that didn’t last long. I have been truly impressed by the character of the teens in her class. My bubbly 10 year old was genuinely embraced by these teens. They constantly encouraged the development of her skills and cheered her on when she was able to execute those skills successfully. They are definitely a direct representation of the environment Coach Abi and Coach Josie have created. If you are hesitant about signing your children up for BJJ, stop waiting and sign them up for this club. You will not regret it.
My son loves training BJJ here. The owners are kind, friendly, and very hands-on with their business.
The place is always extremely clean, orderly, and welcoming.
Coach Abi takes the time to learn each student’s strengths, weaknesses, and interests. He uses this to tailor his coaching style in a way that receives the best response from each individual student.
My son loves coming to class (which is new, considering he had no real interest in BJJ prior to this), and he learns techniques and lessons that are applicable to not only BJJ, but life overall.
If you’re interested in having your child (or yourself) train and learn BJJ, I HIGHLY recommend giving this business a try!
I had the honor of being at the Grand Opening and sharing classes with Coach Abi. It is a very healthy environment and highly recommended to be a part of. Coach Abi is a Great Instructor, with an incredible wealth of knowledge but most importantly a great Human Being and a role model for learning. From the entrance with the Welcome in the The reception by Josie until the first step on the Mat is a healthy and excellent energy to add to our lives. I recommend 100% to everyone in the City of Sierra Vista and all cities close to becoming part of the APOSTLE JIU-JITSU's Family.
My kids were a little unsure of starting Jiujitsu, they weren’t sure if it would be too aggressive or if the kids would be mean or the coaches tough. I wanted them to have a great experience, meet some fun kids, and learn some valuable life skills. We got all of this and more with Apostle Jiujitsu. The coaches are great, they are great instructors, and know how to challenge the kids in a fun and engaging way.
Both my daughter and son look forward to class and they’ve made great friends, while learning new things weekly. The business and family that own this business are professional, while still maintaining that friendly, welcoming atmosphere.
Love this academy. My kids have been going for 3 years and love it! Coach Abi is amazing with the kids and it’s amazing to see how much they grow and learn.
Apostle Jiu- Jitsu is amazing! I couldn't be happier. My kid loves going and it's been so good for him. Coach Abi and Josie are lovely people. The are knowledgeable, kind and compassionate. I highly recommend them!
This academy is such a welcoming, loving and caring community. I can wholeheartedly recommend joining and or looking into the academy.
Apostle Jiu-Jitsu Academy showed me the things i am capable of, i feel much more confident and comfortable in myself then i did a year and a half ago.
Coach Abi is so loving and caring to all of his students (even if he doesn’t want us to know) He welcomes each and every new, regular or returning student with a smile and a mindset of dedication for each individual student who is willing to step on the mat.
I challenge who ever is reading this, to check out Apostle Jiu-Jitsu, i can promise you will see a difference in yourself within 3 months. whether it be physically, mentally or emotionally.
I love you Coach Abi and Josie and I’ll miss you guys so much, i promise to visit has much as i can!! God bless

Signing my three kids up for jiujitsu at Apostle was one of the best things I could’ve done for them. They have all grown significantly. It has taught them self control, it’s helped my youngest learn how to self regulate, and the friends they’ve made have become like family. The small class sizes and individualized attention provided at Apostle are unmatched in our area and show how much the coaches care about the students.
My family has had the privilege of training at Apostle, & I can honestly say it's unlike any other gym. The coaching is top-notch with personalized attention. The owners truly care about each individual's progress & success. This gym is so welcoming & it's clear that the community here is built on mutual respect & support. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, you'll find a home at Apostle Jiu-Jitsu Academy. Highly recommended!
This place is amazing and I would recommend them to anyone. My children have been attending this gym for almost two years and have grown exponentially in their training. The coach really cares about their growth not only in Jiu-jitsu, but as people.
