Best Mma Gym near East-brunswick, New-jersey

I really can’t say enough good things about the program at Garry Tonon Jiu Jitsu, formerly known as Brunswick BJJ. I started training here almost 9 years ago and the people that have helped me from the start are still there training and helping anyone new along their way. It just shows how dedicated everyone is at the academy from the ground up. The instructors are amazing individuals that are always there when you need them most. You are in good hands at GTJJ, whether you are a pure beginner, someone just looking to train or even compete. They have classes and skill levels to accommodate everyone, especially with their brand new training facility which has brand new mats and wall padding, & even a full sized octagon! You really can’t go wrong with at least giving one class a try. The list can go on with the amount of great things Garry Tonon Jiu Jitsu has going on, so don’t hesitate to get in contact with them and definitely do check them out at their brand new location in East Brunswick NJ!

Amazing, skilled, patient and passionate coaches. Great, clean facility. Please note it’s nothing like your local franchise martial arts centers, so your kids will not graduate with black belt in a year and hole in your pocket. They will have to actually work for upgrades, not your wallet. And there are always fun games after work out.

Highly recommend Garry Tonon Jiu Jitsu! I am glad to have found them for my son who's had zero experience in any form of martial arts. They offer a free class to see if it's a fit or not. I wasn't sure what to expect but my son took to it immediately, and we were back the next day to sign up. The instructors (Andrew, Derek and Chris) are amazing and attentive with kids of all ages and I feel confident my kid's in good hands. He looks forward to his sessions and I can't be happier to see he actually enjoys learning so much about self-defense and respect in a fun safe environment. It's been 3 months and still going strong.

Our Kids have been in self defense/martial arts classes since a very early age… this time around we decided it was time for them to join “Jiujitsu”. They have absolutely loved every class ever since they joined back in September 2024. The coaches are very knowledgeable and active in the sport. In addition, they are great with children. They are not only very patient, but great instructors as well. Thanks guys. Highly recommended.

This gym was welcoming. The beginner class was split almost evenly men and women which was an unexpected treat. Lots of drilling and good information and tweaks for both the beginner and intermediate classes.

This place is awful. They don't care about anything but money and the kids are the collateral damage. They will respond to negative reviews to say they want you to contact them or they don't know who you are, but if you try to have a reasonable conversation with them, you'll end up back where you started.... out of lots of money and talking to an inflexible, deaf owner. Stay away. You've been warned! WOW! you don't even remember me. that's rich!

My experience at East Brunswick TS is world class. The instructors are amazing just remember you get what you pay for. I would say the only thing holding a students progress back is the student themselves. It's a way better workout than going to a gym plus it's fun..

My daughter has been going to classes for several months. She loves to go and has learned so much. She looks forward to going to classes every week! Great teaching for life and defense against bullies!

This WAS a great program. Then the corporate greed kicked in... high pressure sales tactics, closing or combining locations to combat poor enrollment, making it more about the business results than the students. We have had our location closed and had to attend a new location at least 3 times and each time, the new location is worse than the previous... further away, worse facility and staff/owner is not as good. I tried giving feedback to the current franchise owner but he wasn't interested. They just want your money and pretend that they care so you renew! Also, there response to negative comments about contacting them to discuss does no good - deaf ears, insincere, waste of time and money! Response to Owner's Comment: My son is still there because you won't give me a refund and the program is NOT cheap. You won't give me a refund for my other child either and you won't take responsibility for the behavior of your staff. I also emailed you feedback when I asked about a refund - you promptly dismissed both. If you don't want negative feedback and don't want to take any responsibility, then perhaps you shouldn't own a business.

My son started classes in Brooklyn, which They were great! We moved to NJ and this is the closest one so didn’t have a choice. During the pandemic I felt that the classes on zoom and in person are very different. I thought maybe he should of offered a discount knowing by that many people lost their jobs (including me) And they were not getting 100% training. Or offer a freeze. He only let me skip 1 month! Smh 🤦🏻‍♀️ The owner here doesn't care about it, he just wants his money. And the worst part is you must do a year contract! I will NOT be renewing. I wouldn’t recommend this place and give it 0 stars.
