ABJJ is a great MMA school that provides the best in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and MMA training in Anchorage, Alaska. The school has top notch instructors and a variety of class times that offer both beginner and advanced classes in each discipline. Their competitive teams have won medals in the Pan American Games as well as their fight team has been featured in the UFC and other top circuits in the United States as well as Canada. If you are looking for a school to push you physically as well as provide a great foundation for your technique I would recommend the Anchorage Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu studio.

I’ve been training at this gym since just after its inception and bared witnessed to a room full of white belts struggling to elbow escape across the mat. The skill level from then to now is like night and day. The amount of legitimate colored belts has grown drastically creating a very competitive atmosphere throughout the gym.

I believe that this, along with the success had by the competitors and a national level is a direct result of the instructors and the hard work of the students. That being said, there is a fine line between Jiu- Jitsu and MMA and this is a Jiu- Jitsu based gym.

During Jiu- Jitsu classes, mat space has become limited, at best. As for MMA, only two sparring matches (four people) can happen simutaneously. Also, there are no bags in the gym, which if there were, could raise the striking level of the MMA competitors substantially. Even with the primitive facilities, still the best place in the state to learn how to whip that proverbial ASS. Finally, Jiu- Jitsu promotions shouldn’t be based on attendance as much as skill level and performance.

The gym has recently moved to its current location. When the remodel is complete the gym will provide over 2000+ square feet of mat space, viewing bleachers, a full AFC cage, a heavy bag area, and a complete line of MMA and BJJ supplies to include the renowned Merciless gear. All in all it is the best training facility in the state.
