NORTH BURNABY BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU

Great dojo. My boys have been attending this school for years taking both Tae Kwon Do and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Really friendly and knowledgeable staff. Lots of great life lessons learned along the way aside from martial arts.

Great instructors and love the atmosphere of the gym. Highly recommended for anyone looking to start and also for those already trained as the club caters to beginners and advance.

Perhaps one of the best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu dojos in all of Vancouver. From the first day I stepped in class, the atomsphere and environment at North Burnaby Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (NBBJJ) was extremely welcoming and electric.

The level of expertise and instruction from Brandon and Phil is displayed through each and every one of their students. No matter the color belt or experience, ego is left at the door. What's left is a community that pushes each other to grow and succeed.

If you are ever thinking of trying a martial art or BJJ, this is the place to try it. As someone who is brand new to BJJ, NBBJJ has fostered growth and confidence I could not get elsewhere!

Amazing classes! Friendly environment and helpful! The instructors are very welcoming and easy/comfortable to work with. This community of people are very warm and welcoming. The locations is easy to find and free parking is close by.

The best BJJ gym in Burnaby. Been training here since 2016 and felt instantly welcomed. There is an amazing sense of community here and you will instantly feel welcomed. Phil and Brandon are amazing instructors! They are passionate, knowledgeable, and patient and always teach in a professional and friendly manner. The best place to train BJJ!

I started about a year ago looking to get back into martial arts, but also trying something different and was recommended to North Burnaby BJJ and it's been a great journey since. There's a great balance in the community here of everyone being very supportive, but at the same time challenging you to be better physically and mentally as well.

As an older woman walking into the dojo almost 7 years ago I felt shy, self conscious and out of place. Little that I knew that in no time this place would become home and my training partners would become my new second family.
It is thanks to instructor Phil and Brandon and their full passion and dedication to the art that they've built a welcoming, supportive, fun, yet competitive space where everyone thrives no matter what their age, gender or skill level is.
Thanks to North Burnaby BJJ, now I feel empowered, confident and look forward to walking through the door like a kid going to a candy store:)
Jiu-jitsu is a major part of my life which I hope to carry with me for many years to come!

Awesome BJJ gym! I felt really welcomed as a complete beginner. Phil and Brandon are excellent instructors.

Its July 29th, 2022.the night before my wedding. My co-best man andrew is choking me out, tapping me out from some moves he had just learned at North Burnaby Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Fast forward 7 months, Andrew is still choking me and tapping me out.

I would highly recommend this gym for anyone looking to start training Jiu Jitsu. Its not just a gym, but a community and family. Ask anyone who has been a teammate in the past or currently, this really is the best gym in vancouver. To Coach Phil and Coach Brandon, and my teammates. Thank you for having me and welcoming me with open arms. My teammates have helped me with personal growth when I was going through a tough time and I am currently in the best shape of my life. Thanks you.

Phil and Brandon are very passionate and knowledgeable with BJJ and it shows in how they conduct and teach their classes in a professional yet friendly manner. I have been a part of the team since 2021 and I always look forward to attending each class to this day, with many more beyond the horizon as I enjoy and value my time here! Appreciate you North Burnaby BJJ!

I've been training at North Burnaby BJJ for over a year now and it's been an amazing experience. The coaches are knowledgeable and supportive, and the training is both challenging and fun. I recently signed up my son for the kids' class and he loves it too. The coaches are great with kids and the classes are both educational and fun. I highly recommend North Burnaby BJJ to anyone looking to improve their skills and fitness.

I was looking for a new hobby that would keep me active and I came across Brazilian jiu jitsu. I didn’t think much going into it, but I ended up falling in love with this sport. The team here has been supportive, and VERY patient with me considering my lack of experience in any type of martial arts. Professor Philip Ta has cultivated and built such a great program and community that is welcoming to all ages, all experience levels and all genders. I can’t thank the team and Phil enough for helping me with this new passion/hobby/obsession!

Can’t say enough good things about NBBJJ. The instructors are very approachable and knowledgeable, and classes are structured with time to drill and roll. Beginner and women friendly!
