Framework BJJ is nestled in a corner on a fairly busy street on Interbay. Coming from northeast…read moreside of Seattle I would say the only tricky thing is pulling into their drive way where they have available parking. If that lot is filled you can also park up top where the recreational park is. As a jiu jitsu journey man I have found what I like and what I try to avoid when I visit a BJJ club. The culture and energy at frameworks is hands down one of the best vibes I've ever experienced. The best part about this school is there are a lot of high level practitioners so you are sure to gain a lot just from the rolls. As mentioned earlier, framework has one of the best welcoming all inclusive vibes that I look for when visiting. They don't have a bro-ey cult vibe that can be associated unfortunately with some schools. Overall, if you want to learn jiu jitsu, whether you've trained for years or have considered it but are hesitant because it can be intimidating, I can assure you that you will feel very welcomed if you visit and train at Framework. I've been doing jiu jitsu for a lil over a decade, visiting and training at many schools so I'm pretty confident with my take over at framework. Thanks for reading!

I've been with Framework BJJ Seattle for nearly 5 years. It truly is a family ("Frame-ily")…read moreatmosphere amongst the training partners. What an amazing vibe! There's no ego. There's no politics. There's just good-natured, intense-as-you-need-to-be, technique-focused, wholesome training. The flexible class schedule throughout the week is also a HUGE plus. Early morning classes? Check. Midday classes? Got you covered. Evening Classes? Absolutely! Weekend classes and open mats? Oss! Gi and No-gi? Definitely - both available multiple times per week, I should add. And, we also have a Women's & Non-Binary class! And if you are a beginner, the Foundations program devised by the seasoned instructors is the best that I've seen throughout my 8+ years of training in the US and in Asia. The curriculum covers what you need to know so that you can learn to handle live sparring at your own pace. Regardless of whether you are a newbie or a grizzled mat monster (or something in between), Framework is a professionally-operated, technically-sound, members-oriented, welcoming BJJ dojo that is sure to have what you are looking for! Come get some!

I am very grateful I started my bjj journey at Praxis. Larry runs a very chill and productive gym…read more He was patient with all of my questions and offered lots of solutions. Whether you're just trying to get in shape, learn self defense, or become a competitive practitioner, I would recommend you try Praxis out.

So I trained at this place for a couple of months; long enough to see what it was like before I…read moredecided to move on. First of all, the mat space is great. Plenty of room and situated on a slightly elevated wooden structure so that you aren't getting slammed on mats lying directly on top of concrete. The mats were swept and mopped with sanitizing solution between each class that I attended. The students are an average bunch for Jiu Jitsu; most are pretty friendly, some are a bit reserved, and a couple are kinda dickish. In other words, a normal gym. Unfortunately that's all the nice things I can say about the place. The men's' changing rooms were a mess; just a small, dimly-lit room with piles of old ceiling tiles stacked in corners, along with discarded odds and ends. Definitely no-frills, and no privacy. Perhaps the women's' changing areas are nicer; I never thought to look. One thing I will say is that there are quite a few women who train here, and that women definitely receive more attention from the instructor than men do. Attractive women receive the most attention of all. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing depends upon on your perspective. This place is very expensive to train at. There is a "Membership Fee" just to join, and then the minimum is $200 per month for just 2 classes a week. $300 a month lets you take 4 classes per week. This is extremely expensive relative to other Jiu Jitsu gyms in the Puget Sound area, where unlimited classes always cost less than $200 per month. The worst part of Praxis BJJ is definitely the instruction. I could go on for a while on that subject, but I'll just hit some highlights. Larry, the only instructor I ever saw at Praxis, is just not that good at teaching. One time where my partner and I had both hit a point where we couldn't get a technique to work for us, and we both stopped drilling and looked over at Larry, waiting for him to notice us and offer to help. I vividly remember him looking around the room at the other people drilling, with a self-satisfied grin on his face, completely ignoring us. I've honestly gotten much better instruction from purple belts who cared enough to go around to everyone in the room, answering questions and correcting improper technique. Another thing that I found unhelpful was that techniques are taught, but the name of the technique was sometimes not provided. One class I participated in was taught a Judo throw but was not told what it is called. Another class we were taught the elbow escape from mount, but I did not learn the name of this technique until I watched a YouTube video and recognized it there. Larry DOES spend a lot of time policing technique. I like to use the single leg underhook guard opening that Saulo Ribero teaches, but when I did this, Larry would frequently interrupt me with admonishments for using my elbow to force my partner's guard open. I kept telling him that I wasn't doing that, but he persisted. At one point when he told me to stop using my elbow to open the guard, I looked up at him and said "I'm not!", and my partner looked up at him and said "He's not!" Larry turned around and quietly walked away. Another time the class I was in was practicing a Judo throw, and I was thrown down on the mats by my training partner, as usually happens when a Judo throw is executed correctly. Larry ran up and told me and my partner that we weren't allowed to practice that throw anymore, and had to just stand around watching other people while they practiced it. After Larry had walked away, I asked my training partner "What happened? Did we do something wrong?" My partner looked at me and shrugged. Apparently this kind of thing happens regularly enough that no one questions it. Larry teaches SOME Jiu Jitsu to white belts, but not the whole thing. For example, at Praxis BJJ white belts are not taught Kimuras, Guillotines, or Hip Bump Sweeps. Pretty much every Jiu Jitsu gym on earth teaches those techniques to white belts. I asked why white belts were not allowed to use the Hip Bump Sweep, and was told that it was because people would post their hands out to prevent the sweep, and someone might accidentally trip on their arm. This is like saying that people shouldn't be allowed to take flashlights with them when they go camping, because someone might get a light shined in their eyes. Posting a hand out is a legitimate defense to almost ALL of the sweeps in Jiu Jitsu; you just keep people separated when they are rolling so they don't get into a pile-up. Perhaps Larry King is some kind of a visionary genius who is simply ahead of his time, but it's more likely that his peculiar ideas regarding Jiu Jitsu instruction are NOT to be recommended to the general public. If you live in South Lake Union, like the convenience of being able to walk to the gym, and have plenty of money, than this might be a decent spot to train at. But you should be aware that you are paying for over-priced, watered-down Jiu Jitsu.

I had planned a work trip up to Seattle and I usually try to find a school nearby to counter all…read morethe sodium heavy company meals and drinks that I expect on work trips. Midnight Jiu-Jitsu was nowhere near the offices I needed to visit nor my hotel. Honestly, what intrigued me was the non-profit model that Midnight had and they allow you a free week's trial, again a week is usually very generous by most school standards and usually for absolute newbs; it's sometimes a nice surprise not to pay for a drop-in or mat fee but you shouldn't expect it, it's a business, respect that. The evening of class, I tried to get there early, evening fighting through rush hour traffic. What I didn't count on was how f'ing difficult it was to find parking. I grabbed my gear bag and ran into class about 15 minutes late. I knew from their website that they gave permission to come late or leave early. As background, depending on the school coming late is anywhere from a minor faux pas to an egregious trespass. Despite knowing this, I was expecting to just sit out and just watch or knock out burpees or push ups. Instead, someone came over when there was a break in the class. I got briefed on what to do and was allowed to change in the back and join the class. Tom and Aaron were there but they just said to call them by their names, again depending on the school titles are a big thing. The class was fun, the rolls were challenging and I learned a couple things. Moreover, I stuck around until closing and got to just sit and chat with Aaron and apologize for my lateness which was totally brushed off as not a big deal. If I'm ever visiting again, I'm going to head back up there-it was enjoyable physically, mentally and socially.

Short Review: PNW…read moreJiu Jitsu is a no frills, high instructional, close knit community all in a brand new clean facility. If you want a school that has great value (instructor to student ratio), a friendly community, all in the Silverdale area I would highly recommend them. They run a limited yet diverse class set such as: kids, womens, adult, and No Gi. (Full review covers thoughts from Adult and Fundamentals classes only.) Full review below: Facility - PNW Jiu Jitsu is tucked away east of the 3 in a warehouse suite area of Silverdale. It is attached to what looks like a CrossFit / Traditional Gym in the same warehouse suite, so the parking is ample if a little dark, but the interior is clean and bright and plenty of room. Mat area is a good size. More than enough room for drills for multiple groups (we averaged 4 groups give or take when performing king of the hill type drills). Although it's a new gym, you can tell that the area is cleaned regularly. Recommend going a few mins early to change as its not a fully loaded posh gym with gigantic bath areas. However the instructor coverage is way important in my opinion. Small price to pay for the intructor to student interaction. Staff / Structure - Probably the biggest factor for me in choosing a Jiu Jitsu school. I travel a fair amount for work, so it gives me the chance the experience different schools. The staff at PNW Jiu Jitsu has been particularly great. Head Instructor Alvin Martino was very welcoming, and also does a great job saying "the why" while teaching. You can tell he has great trust in his staff as he helps with instructor coverage, if not teaching techniques himself. Seeing head instructors stay hands on is a great sight to see, and there are multiple instructors every class making sure you arent lost. Everyone from the front desk to the owner Cody Smith was very happy to welcome another jiujitsu practitioner to their facility. Its also nice seeing people invested in jiujitsu also working there instead of some hired help that wouldnt normally care. George Cronin Jr. does a great job in sticking to a strutured environment, all while taking questions during instruction. He seems to run off of a rubric system which is more than I can say for some schools. PNW has more of a cohesive thought, instead of drilling techniques off the top of your (instructorss) head. There have been multiple times where I have experienced, "I dont think we covered it" and teach virtually the same class multiple times a month. PNW doesnt seem to do this. ***note. This is not to say repeating techniques is not welcomed to me. What this does show is how classes are NOT tracked. We expect high levels of organization with any sort of certifications and training, and you should too when learning from a martial arts school. Its also of note that all the classes at PNW run on individual timed drilling, as in each person has a set amount of time to work out concepts / techniques before switching with partners. Having my own set block of time I felt less rushed. When time is blocked for both people as a whole, you might feel pressed to do things quickly as to not take time away from your partner (at least I do). Conversely I also had times where I bearly did my share of the time because my partner insisted on drilling their turn more. I like PNWs structure much more. Overall: My experience with BJJ schools is a bit more larger in scale. Although PNW Jiu Jitsu isnt big brand name, the quality in actually learning is top notch, one of the most hands on ive seen. How well you recieve training is individually dependent. What I can say is that PNW emphasis on learning, high interaction, all in a structured environment. This philosphy might have to make me rethink my own situation as I've been training for about 5 months now (going 2-3 times a week holidays aside) and im pretty sure my home coach doesnt know my name. Maybe its just how it is with larger schools, but PNW has an emphasis in training within a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommened. Edit: To any staff from PNW Jiu-Jitsu. Thank you so much for the opportunity to train with you guys. I have to unexpectedly leave the area due to a work emergency, however I look forward to seeing you guys in the future. Thank you for everything!

Now it's either $180 or more to join at this facility per month. This facility, should have no right to play favoritism and criticize you when paying this much money towards a gym and trying better yourself mentally and physically. Its your money and you should treated FAIRLY when promotions arise. This used to be the BEST SCHOOL in Seattle. But, this is no longer the case. Look Elsewhere! I don't recommend stepping foot in this GYM ever!, for the amount money you pay. Here another reason that you shouldn't attend. These rules for 180 a month during the covid19 bring in your own dummy. - Seriously come on! This is outrageous. Here is the link to check out the other stupid things this gym is making you do. https://www.jiujitsutimes.com/gacie-barra-rolls-out-covid-19-exit-strategy/amp/ Thanks!

If you want a place with 100% legit black belt professors this is as good as it gets. I've trained…read morein other gyms where there might be a brown belt teaching the class or maybe a black belt or two if you are lucky. It's not uncommon to see 5+ black belts some days at GB and ALL of them have gone out of their way to teach me things and be helpful even when it was my first few weeks as a white belt. The best part, is while they train serious BJJ competitors, training is very safe and no one is trying to hurt you like some other places I've trained. Whether you are interested in BJJ just as a safe way to get in shape doing something fun, looking to make friends and meet new people, or you are a serious athlete training for competition, Gracie Barra is awesome. They really care about you and even if it's just your first day ever and want to try out a free day, they make sure to set you up with everything you need, walk you through the programs and not make you feel like the "new person" in the gym. Thank you GB and I hope anyone reading this review comes in to check it out like I did! P.S. I don't have kids but the kids class is often before the adults class and they always come running off with smiles on their face so it might be something fun to check out if you have kids also.
