I've wanted to try a jiu jitsu class for a long time, and I'm really glad Gracie Jiu Jitsu Amsterdam, the first CTC in The Netherlands, has opened its doors in De Pijp. Classes are super fun and informative. Instructor Adrian does a great job making everyone, both new and regular, feel welcome, Safe and engaged. Classes are an hour long, 3 days a week, and are presented in an easy-to-follow and fun format - The Gracie Jiu Jitsu way. Definitely highly recommend giving Gracie Jiu Jitsu Amsterdam and the Gracie Combatives course a try if you're looking to learn something new, meet new people, and have fun while learning how to defend yourself should you ever need it.
You’ve come to the right place! The atmosphere here is amazing and Adrian is a very thoughtful and experienced instructor. Classes here suits trainers of all levels! The location is convenient and easy to reach both with public transportation and car. Other perks of training at Gracie is that you get access to extensive instructional footage and the chance of training at other Gracie locations around the world.
I'm so glad the Netherlands finally has a Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Certified Training Center! Great instructor and a good facility.
*Professor A* is great instructor with volumes of experience in martial arts. The gym is a very CLEAN, SAFE and FUN environment. Great exercise in self care. An incredible investment in personal self defense with proven tactics that work. Definitely worth your time and energy.

yannick visser: I was looking for a BJJ gym with a focus on technique only. I went to another BJJ gym before where i sustained numerous injuries while sparring. Thats why i booked a private class with Adrian, to avoid injuries from inexperienced students while sparring. Adrians lessons are top notch. He made sure i was comfortable with the moves being demonstrated, and constantly asked "are you comfortable with me sitting on top of you for this move", "do you have any questions", and overall he really made me feel very welcomed. He also noticed the smallest details, like my hand being in a bad position before he would roll me into another position, which he corrected for me, sparing me another injury. The group lessons are of a similar calibre. There is no sparring, and the focus is 100% on self defense and technique. Everyone goes slowly and safely. I heard from another student that there hasnt been an injury in the entire class since he started 8 months ago. I would very much reccomend this gym, especially for beginners as its a very welcoming and safe environment. And the instruction is very experienced and professional.
Response: Thanks so much for the very kind review Yannick, we're more than happy that you're having the most enjoyable Jiu Jitsu experience with us. We look forward to training lots more with you!
david thart: GJJ Amsterdam: atmosphere, instructor, program, all up to standard. Adrian has found the right balance between challenge and fun. Always a pleasure to train.
Response: Thank you David! Great to have you back!
dragos avram: Really recommend this gym. It is the place that made me fall in love with BJJ. Great people on and off the mats and Adrian does a tremendous job guiding all of us!
Response: Thanks very much for the kind words and great review Dragos. Always great having you on the mat!
Helena Hartmann: Really great Jiu Jitsu Studio! If you want to learn 2-3 new techniques every class by a great teacher, this studio is for you! Less sparring here, focus is more on getting the techniques and moves right :)
Response: Thanks so much Helena! Always great having you on the mat! See you soon!

Shinkendo is a form of Budo, or Japanese martial arts, created in 1990 by Obata Toshishiro. Mr. Obata studied and mastered many different schools of Budo in Japan, and then came to America to distill what he had learned into a new, complete art. Shinkendo is the real way of the sword.
In this dojo, you will learn the 36 core techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Each lesson addresses one standing and one ground self-defense technique, which are further broken down to facilitate the learning process. You can participate in any class without previous experience and, since safety is our number one concern, there is no competitive sparring in this program.
