Bellum Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Dropped in for open mat while visiting from out of town. Really friendly gym with good training. The owner Derek was friendly and helpful. Thanks!

Dropped in while in town for work, and the coaches/members were amazing. Very open atmosphere with friendly/competitive rolls. Would definitely train here again if I'm back in the area!

Coming up on one year training here and I've found my new home gym. After training at another local gym for twice the price for the past 5 years Bellum was a breath of fresh air. Black belt instructors at all the night classes and brown for all the lunch hour classes makes for unrivaled instruction. Open gym Saturdays is my favorite but also like the Friday nights where we can put on the gloves and spar. As a frequent traveler for work I've personally visited over thirty other gyms around the world (including five in the twin cities) so it's great to see so many visitors dropping in to Bellum; this was something my first gym didn't even allow which makes me wonder why. Bellum has a large open mats, windows for natural light, no weird rules about gis, separate locker room space, great hygiene policy, and plays a role in supporting charities that matter like WeDefy and adopt a cop because trained police keep everyone safer. Any type of grappler welcome and very diverse group. From hobbyists to competitors, male or female, young and old, and at 46 myself, I can say safety is clearly a priority! Just renewed...5 stars!

Phenomenal gym. good vibes, and filled with people who's aims are to train well, and avoid dangerous training that leads to unnecessary injury. A great mix of likeminded individuals who want to grow both individually and as a gym collectively. Grateful for Derek and the rest of the excellent coaches.

Great instructors, and group of people. Fun atmosphere and accommodating to all skill levels. Classes are the highlight of my week.
