The BJJ Directory was created with one belief: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is more than a sport — it’s a community. From the black belt professor who built his academy from scratch to the white belt who just started their journey, every practitioner plays a role in shaping this network. Whether you’re looking for a place to train, a tournament to compete in, or services run by fellow martial artists, the BJJ Directory connects the people who make this lifestyle possible. More Than Gyms – We’re Family Community-Driven Training Trusted Network Support gyms and businesses led by people who live and breathe Jiu Jitsu, and who share the values of discipline, respect, and continuous growth. From coaches who’ve earned their stripes on the mat to business owners who are part of the same community, this is a network built on trust. Curated Quality Every academy and service listed is carefully selected from within the BJJ world — by people who understand what practitioners and families need. Giving Back Every connection made through the BJJ Directory helps strengthen our martial arts community and supports the next generation of practitioners. Our Story The idea for the BJJ Directory came from a simple realization: martial artists often have to search random websites to find gyms, tournaments, or services, with no guarantee they can trust what they see. That didn’t make sense when the global Jiu Jitsu community is already full of credible, passionate people running incredible academies and businesses. We’ve all experienced it: the black belt professor who mentors dozens of students while running a family business. The competitor who launches a tournament circuit that helps others test their skills. The coach who opens a gym where kids and adults alike find confidence and discipline. These connections happen naturally on the mats — but they shouldn’t rely on chance. That’s why we built the BJJ Directory: to give Jiu Jitsu families a digital hub where they can support one another, grow together, and ensure our community thrives both on and off the mat.
