Would We Recommend Forged Jiu Jitsu?
Choosing a jiu jitsu school is an important decision. You’re not just picking a place to work out — you’re choosing a community, a culture, and a standard you’ll be held to. So it’s fair to ask: would we recommend Forged Jiu Jitsu?
The short answer is yes — for the right people.
Built on Strength, Discipline, and Community
Forged Jiu Jitsu was built around three core values: strength, discipline, and community. These aren’t just words on the wall — they shape how we teach, how we train, and how we treat one another.
Strength means more than physical ability. It’s about mental toughness, confidence, and the willingness to face challenges head-on.
Discipline means showing up consistently, respecting the process, and doing the work even when it’s hard.
Community means training in an environment where people support one another, push each other to improve, and hold each other accountable.
A Focus on Real Self-Defense
Our approach to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu emphasizes practical self-defense. We believe jiu jitsu should make you more capable in real-world situations, not just on the mats. That means learning fundamentals, understanding control and positioning, and developing calm under pressure.
Whether you’re a kid learning confidence and awareness or an adult looking to protect yourself and your family, self-defense is always part of the foundation.
Culture Matters More Than Numbers
We’re intentional about the culture we build. We’re not trying to be the biggest academy — we’re focused on being the right one.
That’s why we value:
Consistent attendance over shortcuts
Effort over ego
Contribution over entitlement
This mindset shows up in everything we do, including how we handle training scholarships. Opportunities are earned through commitment and character, not handed out with no expectations.

Who We’re Probably Not For
We’re also honest about who we’re not a good fit for:
People looking for free training with no commitment

And that’s okay. Not every gym is for everyone.
