BBJ schools in Dallas

[cazzo]

I am almost finished with nursing school and I want to get back into BJJ. I was looking for people's opinion on a good school to go to in or around Dallas. I went to Carlos Machado's school when I first moved here, but it is just too expensive for me. I hear that Saekson's gym also does BJJ, but I don't know who the teacher is. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Bro, not sure where you live but The Academy Of Brazilian JuJitsu in Lewisville (972) 353-0770 has good prices and the instuctor got his black belt through Carlos and his prices are really reasonable. I highly recommend it!

tons of places there..NDBJJ, Travis Lutters, Mohlers, Star jiu jitsu, ..are a few of the top of my head

www.txmma.com will have a directory with alot more info or you could ask on the forums there for personal experience.

Yeah, I have heard good things about that place, unfortunately it is too far away.

I have looked at the website. Thanks. I guess I was looking for a personal recommendation.

North Dallas BJJ run by JD Shelly is a good BJJ gym and has a really well rounded schedule. I really respect their gym and would consider going their if I lived closer. If you're interested in some good MMA there's the Lion's Den run by Guy Mezger. They are a MMA gym but their guys do pretty good in BJJ tourney's. A little outside Dallas there is Star Jiu-jitsu in Carrolton run by Yousef Alirezai who has over 250 gold medals in wrestling and BJJ. Garland is close to Saekson's which I would consider but mostly because Im a Muay Thai freak and I train with some of their guys. I think their BJJ instructor is from Star but Im not sure. Those are the places I recommend off the top of my head. I would go to each one for some free lessons to see for yourself. I went to like 5 BJJ gyms before I made my decision.
