Third Ward Jiu-Jitsu and Self-Defense provides an inclusive and welcoming environment with great instructors. The gym offers a friendly atmosphere, small classes, and a focus on detail. It's perfect for learning self-defense or refining skills, and suitable for all levels, making it one of the top schools in Houston.
Cannot recommend this place enough. Four months in and I have felt VERY supported here. Andrew, Sarah, and Zach are the best. 10/10

Great instruction, very detail oriented. Self defense/fundamental jiu jitsu focused curriculum. Not competition-focused, but they still welcome it. Highly recommend.

Chill place, nice instructors, fun class.
I enjoy the balance between techniques and games/rolls.
