GeorgetownBrazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, MMA, and self-defense for kids, adults, and competitors. Family-friendly. Beginners welcome. World-class instruction at every level.
Three programs. One philosophy.
Whatever you walked in for — fitness, self-defense, competition, your kid's first stripe — the curriculum scales to meet you. Pick your lane.
Adult Jiu Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the most effective close-range self-defense system on earth — a smaller, technical practitioner can immobilize a much larger opponent through leverage, position, and submission.
Kids Jiu Jitsu
We combine practical Brazilian Jiu Jitsu with a structured Resiliency Leadership Program.
MMA
MMA is the modern proving ground — the rule-governed sport that drew the best of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Boxing, Wrestling, and Muay Thai into one art.
Don’t take our word. Take theirs.

“I've been trying to find a comfortable home for Jiu Jitsu over the years and think I finally find my home at Johns. Great for folks of all levels, they'll push you but also make sure you understand what you're doing at a pace that is appropriate for your skill and fitness level. Recommend for anyone.”

“I have been taking my child here for the kids classes for the last few months and it has been great. Not only is a great physical activity for him, but it helps develop important developmental resilience. The coaches are amazing and they really help with the kids to understand and have at least 1 coach per group of kids. Can’t say enough about how happy we are with John’s Gym and we look forward to seeing the progress of our child.”

“If you are looking for a gym that embodies the term family, then this is where you need to train. The coaches are absolutely amazing, from beginner to advanced level BJJ the training is mentally and physically challenging. There are 3 Johns gym facilities, I have trained at all of them, and I can assure you they are all worth checking out. The Georgetown gym is a very dynamic training facility due to the MMA classes they offer along with their BJJ programs. If you are looking for a gym that will challenge you, and push you to your limits this is the place. Drop by and see for yourself.”

“We came visiting and we were looking for a gym for son to practice. We were very pleaseantly surprise. The practice was very well run by Jason. The kids seemed very receptive to him and listening well to the instructions. Which shows a good raport between the kids and the coach. My son enjoyed his time there. The building doesn't say much from the outside, but inside is well lit, organized and cleaned. They protect the mat which is very important.”

“Two of our kids (7&5) attend John's Gym and they LOVE it. I am very picky about the coaches, teachers, etc that I will allow to have influence with my kids, so when we were on the hunt for somewhere to train, I was thorough.”

Why people stay for years.
Confidence through self-defense
Real skills, taught patiently. The kind of confidence that lives in your body, not your head.
Real fitness. Built on the mat
Conditioning that comes from training, not treadmills. Lose weight, build strength, sharpen your mind.
Discipline that carries off the mat
Problem-solving under pressure becomes a habit. Students leave calmer, sharper, and harder to rattle — at school, at work, anywhere.
One mat. One team.
Kids, adults, competitors, and first-timers — everyone trains under the same roof in Georgetown. Show up enough and these people stop being teammates and start being family.
Built on the backs of the people who served.
We are a proud We Defy affiliate. The program supports combat veterans coping with military-connected disabilities — providing a long-term path to overcome those challenges through Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and fitness training.
If you or someone you know qualifies, we'll get you on the mat. No barrier.
