5/5

“I’ve only ever written a handful of reviews, but I wanted to share my outstanding experience at Impact Jiu Jitsu. I dropped in for 2 weeks while traveling, and felt welcomed by Ben and the rest of the team. The school really lives up to their motto: “Good People, Good Jiu-Jitsu.” Instruction is clear and structured, with lots of situational rolling baked in. I highly recommend taking a private lesson with Ben: the content was tailored to my needs and really helped my game. I’m definitely going back next time I’m in ABQ.”

“I have been training at Impact Jiu Jitsu for nearly a year and the effect it has had on my physical and mental health has been profound. No matter what your motivations are for training, whether it’s self-defense, competition, fitness, etc., Impact offers a variety of comprehensive classes that are sure to meet your needs. The coaches are excellent, and the culture of the gym overall is supportive, respectful, and full of camaraderie. I signed up my daughter as soon as Impact began offering classes for 3-4 year-olds, and she loves it. Ben and Kaethe’s passion for this gym and its members shows through, and makes everyone feel like they’re part of a family.

“Ben and his crew welcomed me to join their Drill For Skills class on a Wednesday morning at 5:30 as a white belt with only 2 and a half months experience from out of state. Rafael, Tim and the rest of the team treated me like family. Everyone showed me a skill or offered a tip to improve my BJJ journey. The team works hard! They challenge each other. They make each other better. You will sweat, ache and be pushed to your limits…and when the class is over you will be glad you did. The facility is clean, neat and well designed. As I was leaving I saw one of the students began to sweep. It’s clear they take pride in their place. Stop by for a class or sign up for a membership. It’ll be worth it.
