Joining AMBJJ has been one of the most life-changing decisions I’ve ever made. I came in looking for help with self-defense, thanks to a dear friend who introduced me to Jiu-Jitsu — but what I found was so much more than just a martial art. I found a community of genuinely good people who care deeply, lead humbly, and support you every step of the way. 🥋❤️ From the moment you walk in, you feel seen. When you’re there, people notice. When you’re not, they check in. That kind of care is rare, and it’s a direct reflection of the culture that Alex and Lacey have built. Alex leads with humility, strength, and love for his people — you can feel it in every class. 💪🏽✨ And Lacey runs the academy with such precision and genuine warmth that everything flows with intention and excellence. 🧠🌟 Whether it’s the regular adult classes or the women’s program, there’s an incredible variety of learning opportunities, taught by instructors who are not only amazing at teaching but are still passionate students of the art themselves. 📚🔥 There’s no ego here — just confidence, kindness, and a collective drive to help each other grow into the best version of ourselves. 🙌🏼 I’ve heard many people say that Jiu-Jitsu is a powerful art form — and it is — but what AMBJJ offers is beyond special. There is no other studio in Dallas like it. This place has changed my life, and I can’t recommend it enough. 💯 Chris Alcala2025-05-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Started at AMBJJ 2.5 months ago and best decision I ever made. Everyone is super welcoming and helpful to get you better everyday. If you're even contemplating it, try the free session and you'll be hooked. Brandon Stafford2025-05-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Aaron Stroman2025-04-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took a private lesson with Alex. My De La Riva defense improved 1000%. Not only was he a great instructor on the technical aspects, he was very hospitable and kind. The facility was incredible! Great mats, clean building, showers available, the whole 9 yards! BenMor2025-04-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Training at Alex Martin Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time. I’m in my 30's and very active with CrossFit and construction, and I’ve done wrestling, Muay Thai, and kickboxing in the past—but BJJ has challenged me in a whole new way. In just two months, I’ve seen major improvements in my cardio, strength, and overall well-being. What truly sets AMBJJ apart is Alex himself. He’s a world-class athlete and an incredible coach who genuinely cares about every student’s progress. He brings great energy, patience, and focus to every class. The gym feels like a family from the moment you walk in—positive, welcoming, and full of good people. Highly recommend stopping by and checking it out. Jose Balda2025-04-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best martial art in the game! Dallas, Tx Samuel Gomez2025-04-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Been training for about 3 years now and one of favorite things to do while traveling is visit other gyms. My cousin has been training at this gym for about 8 months now so he brought me in for 2 classes and they were great. I took a noon nogi class as well as a morning gi class and they were both such a great time. Everyone is so helpful and nice, the teaching style is great, and the head coach, professor Alex is such an amazing person. I will definitely be returning whenever i visit Dallas again! Brian Baker2025-04-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Phenomenal atmosphere, beautiful facility, top-tier instruction. Highly recommend this to anybody looking to start jiu-jitsu, or seasoned veterans looking to increase their game.
