Chicago School Of Grappling 722 South Racine Avenue, Chicago, IL 60607

"Never thought BJJ was something I would ever want to do but 6 months later, and I can't say I would have found a better place to start than at CSG. What I love about this place is that they encourage you to try out different things and are super helpful in accomodating to whatever goal you have in jiu jitsu. I have been to all of the classes by all of the instructors and I find that you can learn and adjust new things from how each of them do things. Derrick's fundamental class can get you comfortable with BJJ and he is a great person to talk to. John's class really gets you thinking about systems and how to link all of the pieces together. Matt is great in breaking down techniques and helped adjust a lot of the details. Marco's a really great instructor as well and really helped me out during my first few months. And shoutout to Tony who sometimes fills in for the classes and is a great person to practice with"

"Great gym, very welcoming to new members. Instructors are very knowledgeable and will help you grow regardless of experience level."

"Really enjoyed training at Chicago School of Grappling! This is the best martial arts gym I've been to. Coaches are awesome, they adjust the training to your level and everyone's super welcoming. Both BJJ and Muay Thai classes were great, and I especially liked that almost everything is practiced with a partner. The classes also include sparring at the end where you can put everything you learned together. You get individual attention and they even provide equipment if needed. Highly recommend!"

"One of the best places to train. Every instructor communicates techniques in a clear way that is easy to understand. Skill levels are diverse and include beginners and advanced students. I started training here without any experience in martial arts and couldn't be happier. The instructors are welcoming and care for their students."

"While I haven’t been to any other schools of grappling, and I came with no prior knowledge of BJJ, this place has been just great. Not just for beginners, but also for people with experience. The instructors adjust according to your level, and so do the seasoned students. This place just welcomes you with open arms. You have the freedom to ask, try and learn. This is a no ego school with ample recognition and appreciation for its students. Anyone looking to learn, this is definitely where you’d want to be. All you need, is the will to learn!"
