Armando Gutierrez: Southside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy is one of the best schools in Minneapolis! Coach Enrique and his instructors are incredibly welcoming, creating a fun and exciting atmosphere for the gym. On top of that, their wide-range of techniques and detailed instruction offers one to learn and advance very fast once here! It is clear that they truly have a passion for teaching from how they conduct themselves and deal with everyone around them. Southside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy is definitely the most premier school in terms of technique, training, and atmosphere.When you're talking about this gym, you're talking about the Gold Standard of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gyms!
Fabian Ferrada: I’ve had an opportunity to train in a lot of dojos over the last 16 years and Southland BJJ definitely has a great environment and culture. Felt safe with everyone and had an opportunity to train with some of the colored belts. Very respectful and overall great people. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and looking to drop in for a class.
Nicole Santolalla: Southside is an outstanding bjj academy. Everyone is very welcoming and Coaches are extremley knowledgable and focus on helping each student with their individual needs.

Odhran Hayes Owens: Southside is a wonderful community of jujitsu practitioners. The professors meet the students where they are at and have real grasp on how to teach the techniques for the students. I’ve practiced a variety of martial arts at a few places, their approach to jujitsu seems to be pretty progressive and very well thought out
Eben gardner: Great gym! He's very flexible with what you need and everyone is very friendly. There's a wide range of skill at this gym so it's a great place for anyone looking to continue or start their training. If you can't afford the rates, talk to him about it. He'll work with ya! Good luck!
seth cheney: I visited this school from out of town and felt right at home. Excellent instruction with fine tuned technique. Great rolling partners kept it competitive while leaving ego at the door!
Mark Hill: I did a drop in class while in town for a day at this gym. The instructor was welcoming, as were the students.

Great gym.
Kareem Abou-Karam: What an amazing place to train! It doesn't matter if you are just starting or you have been training for years, the instruction at Southside is top-notch! I have been training here for the past 2 years and have learned more than I could have possibly imagined in that time!
Yi Jin Toh: but all the other sessions are also very welcoming and made me feel comfortable
Joseph Dasuki: Authentic people, chill vibes, tough competitors 🤙, everything that matters for a great bjj gym is here
Fatima A: This is an excellent Jiu jitsu gym, I highly recommend it to other parents. My son attended and received stellar training. He was new to the sport and timid, and I always felt he was in the best of hands, both cared for and always challenged to get even better. The instructors are skilled, patient, and provide the kids with plenty of opportunity to learn and practice together. The membership is very competitive and location is convenient. We had nothing but great experiences here, no reservations at all.
Ibsa Barisa: Joining Southside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy has been a transformative experience for me. Professor Enrique, the head instructor, is not only an outstanding tactician but also a highly skilled. His passion for the art is contagious, and under his watchful eye, I have learned the importance of perfecting my techniques and embracing the values of discipline, resilience, and respect.What sets Professor Enrique apart is his ability to break down complex moves into digestible steps tailored to each student's level. He has always been open to my questions and provides detailed responses that have deepened my understanding of Jiu-Jitsu. His unwavering commitment to my progress has made me feel competent in my skills and confident in my ability to apply them during rolls and future competitions.In addition to Professor Enrique, other instructors, like Professor Adrian Ricci, and higher belt students like Nik and Tim have been incredibly helpful and encouraging. Their collective expertise creates a well-rounded learning experience that fosters growth and development.The gym itself is clean and well-maintained, and I've found a supportive and motivated community in my fellow practitioners. Southside Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy flexible scheduling with classes in the morning, midday, and evenings, has made it easy for me to fit training into my busy life. I can't imagine a better environment to learn and grow in the art of Jiu-Jitsu, and I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to train under Professor Enrique and the rest of the talented team.
Joe & Dorota Kearney: I dropped in for a class while I was in town for work. It’s a great atmosphere with high level black belt instruction, and everyone was very welcoming and friendly. I will certainly return when I’m back in town!
Maxamed Hussin: This is a great place to train! The crew at Southside bjj are very welcoming to visitors and cater to all levels of grappling experience.

Jason Scully: I dropped into Bellum BJJ during my short visit and it was a great experience. Coach Derek was very respectful and we got a super fun roll in. All of the members were very welcoming as well.The facility looks very clean and there’s plenty of space to train. If I make my way back in the Minneapolis area I’ll be sure to drop in again.It was great finding an early morning Saturday training session as well. A+ experience!
Daniel Ayd: so it's great to see so many visitors dropping in to Bellum; this was something my first gym didn't even allow which makes me wonder why. Bellum has a large open mats, windows for natural light, no weird rules about gis, separate locker room space, great hygiene policy, and plays a role in supporting charities that matter like WeDefy and adopt a cop because trained police keep everyone safer. Any type of grappler welcome and very diverse group. From hobbyists to competitors, male or female, young and old, and at 46 myself, I can say safety is clearly a priority! Just renewed...5 stars!
John Ryan McLaughlin: Dropped in while in town for work, and the coaches/members were amazing. Very open atmosphere with friendly/competitive rolls. Would definitely train here again if I'm back in the area!
Matthew Thompson: Dropped in for open mat while visiting from out of town. Really friendly gym with good training. The owner Derek was friendly and helpful. Thanks!
Morgan Hasegawa: Phenomenal gym. good vibes, and filled with people who's aims are to train well, and avoid dangerous training that leads to unnecessary injury. A great mix of likeminded individuals who want to grow both individually and as a gym collectively. Grateful for Derek and the rest of the excellent coaches.
James Gullickson: Excellent instruction, supportive community, and affordable rates with no contracts. Training here has been transformational for me. It's awesome to be part of a place like this where people are pushing themselves and to witness the growth that takes place.
Perry Heimermann: I've trained at many jiujitsu gyms around the country, and Bellum is a special place. They have some of the best instruction and cleanliness I've experienced.These types of gyms can seem very intimidating to newcomers, but the staff here is very welcoming and accommodating. If you're new, start at Bellum. If you're looking for somewhere to train from out of town, come to Bellum.
Paul Holt: Great instructors, and group of people. Fun atmosphere and accommodating to all skill levels. Classes are the highlight of my week.
Timothy Burns: I have been training at Bellum since January ‘22. Great welcoming environment, and I’m a natural introvert. Derek, Richard, Brandon, and Fabio are excellent coaches. No egos. A bunch of people training for fun, fitness, and self-defense.
Alex Medrano: I've been going to Bellum BJJ for a couple of months and can't sing their praises enough. The owners Derek and Holly go out of their way to always make you feel welcomed, providing loaner GIs and encouraging words. The knowledgeable instructors each have their own styles of explaining technique, adding in their own perspectives from experience. I find the pace of the instruction to be really good, allowing individuals to be slow and steady or to progress more quickly if ready. The community there enables this style by sharing knowledge and working at your pace and level, where ever that may be, beginner or experienced. I did the free trial week and quickly realized that it was exactly the kind of personal challenge I've been looking for.
Matthew Turek: Derek runs a fantastic gym. I come from an affiliate gym, but I always feel welcome when I visit. Culture is important to me, and this gym has developed some done a great job vetting their guys!
Carl Ball: Excellent training facility. Having cerebral palsy it is always a concern how patient instructors will be with my lack of flexibility. However, everyone here is great and very encouraging. My girlfriend’s daughter did the kids class and really enjoyed it.
Issamar Cartagena-Coronado: I went to the women’s self defense class and it was amazing. I learned a few fundamentals. I hope to be back soon. Great teachers and everyone was so nice. Everyone was extremely welcoming.
Gohan Xyooj: Awesome dojo to learn Bjj and the people there are great and nice. Come check it out.
Juan Carlos Acevedo: Excellent classes and very welcoming group. I just regret I didn’t join sooner.

Ryan b: Amazing place and great people. Expert instructors with in-depth knowledge. Very welcoming.
Daniel Ish-Shalom: Would highly recommended this martial art facility for students or residents of the local Northeast area. Takashi I've know for about 3 year's. He is a person that is very dedicated to his craft and creating an environment for people to learn Brazilian Ju Jitsu. He has collaborated with different instructors across town and has brought quality training to this facility. Also he provides a friendly space for men and women in the area to train and get to know each other. Overall great experience

Miro Wang: lovely community! Would highly recommend to those who haven’t tried BJJ before!

Sikai Yang: Great place to begin the journey. Friendly instructors and training partners, plus best value for bjj you may ever find.
Keagan Smith: This place is definitely the best BJJ gym in the Minneapolis area. If you're in search for a friendly community that knows what they're doing, then this is the spot. I really like the concept of this place and not to mention the world-class instruction. I'm no expert at BJJ, however I think I will be soon! 😆 I seriously recommend this place super fun and safe environment!
Lucas Meaux: Great space for training with very talented, seasoned instructors. Learned a lot about self-defense from this place and stayed in shape while doing it! Highly recommend AR-BJJ

steve weismann: Ishmael is brilliant and his BJJ instructors are great. I took my son to M-Theory when the school first opened and have been there ever since. The people are friendly and welcoming, and there are all levels of skill. I always look forward to going there.
Alexander McGruder: Amazing teachers. Inclusive environment. Safe and thoughtful instruction.
Liz Bullon: Super cool and tremendous academy. Super special people and place. My son wanted to buy a rashguard that was already sold out. Someone found out that he was looking for one and gave it to him, what a nice detail! The super professional coaches are always waiting for the Students to do the drills, paying attention to the details.If you are in the Minneapolis, Minnesota area and practice jiujitsu with a gi or no gi, take a look around M-theory is the place you should visit. Call them before you go. They offer the first or second class free of charge.
Dawn McCool: Great place for all ages. My son is having a blast learning valuable skills.
Lloyd McKinney: after one of their Black Belts did a seminar at our "home" gym. Everyone was amazing and made me feel welcome. The classes we well ran and inclusive. And the sparring was challenging but highly respectful! I hope to make it up more frequently as I love the energy and environment this place has to offer! Definitely a world class facility and Staff. I would highly recommend checking them out if you are passionate about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and want to train at an elite level, no matter what level you are currently at. Like I said before, this place is spectacular!
Steven Lovett: Great instructors, and great people to train with! Overall just a very friendly, welcoming atmosphere 😊

josh baker: Great people, very knowledgeable.
Nick Olson: Clean facility and good group of training partners
Matt Brouse: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,Value
Bob Dompierre: Dropped in on a Saturday morning while in town visiting family. Very welcoming staff and students; made me feel very comfortable. Picked up some good straight ankle techniques during class. Stayed for some rolling after, everyone was respectful during rolls. Hard rolls but not in a mean way. Have to compliment their takedowns, there’s a few I’ll be spamming at my home gym. Thank you to Ryan, Ish, and all of the students at the academy for a great experience. Hope I can drop in next time I’m in town.
Abigail Baker: Beautiful place and great people!! Perfect place for all levels.

Kelsey Briann Faddler: We have tried out several different martial arts gyms and couldnt really find one that fit. My son, daughter and nephew joined Alliance several months ago. I am a people watcher and observer. I have watched these coaches plant so many seeds for success, confidence, and just an all around wholesome experience into so many individuals in the gym and their families. Everyone has been very kind and welcoming. The head coach and his wife are really awesome people, along with all the coaches. My son has become so much more confident, he loves this gym. His demeanor has changed in such a positive way. We are very grateful we found this place, it definitely fits for us.
Kellen Kersten: Awesome people. Awesome instruction. I have had a great experience starting my Jiu Jitsu journey here.
Nehemiah White: Was in town for business and dropped in to join the evening instruction. Excellent instruction and great rolling experience. Thanks Coach Damian and Coach Danny!
Will Sharpe: Signing my son up for jiu jitsu here is easily one of the best parenting decisions I’ve ever made. Incredible teachers and a fantastic community of kids and parents!
Robert Wales: I go to Minneapolis several times a year for work and I have visited Alliance several times, for gi and no-gi classes. The gym is clean, the atmosphere is great, and the instructors are top notch!
Anthony DeRosier: Damian is an amazing teacher and everyone I've met has been so friendly! Overall an incredible place to learn and workout, highly recommend it.
Mark: This place is awesome! Damian is a top notch, passionate instructor who also happens to have a great resume as a competitor! All the other instructors have just as much passion and the welcoming, family environment is great for any level of practitioner! Whether a beginner just looking to learn, or a competitor looking to be a champion, there is no better place to train in the area!!!
Billy: While visiting from another state I was shown amazing hospitality and instruction. Welcoming and skillful students. Clear and concise instruction. Cannot recommend this school highly enough.
lucas wilcox: Positive:Communication,Professionalism
Ben Craig: I was in MN for work/family for a month and Alliance was the gym I went to. Damian made the 45 minute drives worth it. Very good fundamentals/instruction and all of the people I worked with gave me good tips. And Damian answered my million questions prior to arriving, so kudos to anyone who can deal with all the questions.Whenever I am back in town, this will be the spot. If you live here, definitely recommend it.
Charlie Johnson: Cathartic, meditative, great place to spend an hour in the afternoon with good people and tough training!
Carsten C: I have only been here a few months, I am a white belt, and am lucky enough to have started my jiu jitsu journey here. This gym is top notch, the instructors know what they are talking about, have the accolades to prove it, and are super friendly. Best gym in the twin cities, highly recommend training here!
