Drysdale is a terrific martial arts school with a variety of programs on offer. We primarily attended for my son to participate in the kids BJJ and it was a great for him. He progressed a ton in the year we attended (we sadly needed to move out of town). I think the instructors are universally encouraging, patient, and supportive. By the way, the owner actually wrote a couple books about BJJ so he is a real student of the art. Wish we could give it 6 stars!

Today was my first day at Drysdale Jiu Jitsu, and it went better than I could have imagined. The facilities are clean, the staff is knowledgeable, and there was no feeling of intimidation. As a Las Vegas Local, Drysdale offers a 3-day free trial. I went to the Monday 10:30 am class (Gi class), but being new to Jiu Jitsu, I do not own a Gi. Thankfully for me, I was able to borrow a Gi from the staff during the class. The typical Gi rental price is $10 for the day.  Being new to Jiu Jitsu, you are required to finish a checklist of basic moves. This requirement makes me confident that Drysdale Jiu Jitsu will adequately support me and nurture my growth. I was fortunate to have Harvey, a brown belt at Drysdale, show me these basics while expanding on guard concepts. Once we moved back with the main class, I had the privilege to work with Coach Ken, who, like Harvey, was excellent. The staff & students know how to make you feel comfortable, like you're part of the family, even on your first day.  I highly recommend Drysdale Jiu Jitsu. I am excited to start my journey here and can't wait to get my kids in here.

I moved to Las Vegas from Australia for the second time and scouted around for a gym that was going to be home and push me like never before. My first few classes felt like I had never trained a day in my life prior exactly what I was looking for. Definitely a place that welcomes newcomers and the proficient. Over the last year here I have elevated my personal goals by challenging all aspects of my training. You have world class coaches who are valuable on and off the mat; genuine and passionate people who make the time to help see you grow and push your limits. I loved building upon my game with the judo and wrestling classes, feeling a lot more confident and well-rounded. Will miss the Zenith family, but will make sure I get back there again and see everyone soon! ‍

Vegas has a lot of options on good gyms to choose from however i think as a Jiu Jitsu Competitor i get the best training Vegas has to offer right here at Drysdale's. We even have a lot of people who just do jj as a hobby and even they're bad a*s! Drysdale's gives you a wide variety of classes to choose from along with multiple time slots - ALL with high level professors/instructors/teachers. We even have a shnasy all women's class if you don't want to train with smelly sweaty men. (We're pretty cool so come train with us.) In conclusion - I gotta say going to a new gym was nerve wracking but so far I've felt nothing but love from everyone here. It's so family oriented, no drama, welcoming and encouraging you have a friend in everyone you can think of; from the training partners to the parents all the way down to the staff. Thanks guys!

I highly recommend training here, whether you are just trying to learn self defense, or actually compete in the ring. Everyone in the gym is very friendly and uplifting as well.

Jason Andrada, the gym owner, is a wonderful, dedicated, patient coach. He works tirelessly to provide all of his students, from complete beginners to Muay Thai fighters, with the best training sessions in a safe, supportive, positive environment. With every class, he goes above and beyond to make sure every student learns the art of Muay Thai and gets a great workout at the same time. The gym is large and very clean.

Great place to train. I highly recommend this gym.

So I feel he's both arrogant and obnoxious when provided with feedback he doesn't agree with. I had to tell him multiple times I was done with the conversation, this was because I was uncomfortable at that point. It definitely felt like I couldn't voice my opinion on his business He explained he didn't stop the kids from running out because he was busy unlocking another child from the restroom and that the reason he seemed annoyed/irritated when he came in and yelled at us all to move our cars was because he had gotten into it with the tow truck guy outside and had them unhook a car He also explained he's not arrogant, that it's just my opinion and basically wanted to know why I felt that way, I explained I've seen him interact with others and he wanted to know who/when, which didn't seem right if this is how he reacted to my review. He asked why i thought he was arrogant and I let him know because of how he was approaching from the review I left - i let him know he was being arrogant then and there As far as my son being afraid of him, I explained it was also due to one interaction they had and he said he speaks to the kids like a coach(which I explained from my opinion/perspective it didn't feel that way) My previous review mentioned my son got ring worm from borrowing the boxing gloves and he let me know that was impossible. I explained this was a gym and it was very possible but he wasn't having it so I stood my ground as well insisting he got it there because it happened after using their gloves which isn't a problem just brought it up as a precaution didn't need to be defensive about it He let me know that if I wasn't happy I could leave, I reminded him I paid for the year and it's not like he's going to refund me the remainder of the year. He said he wasn't kicking us out just letting us know we could leave if we weren't happy As far as the AC goes, he let me know the building isn't equipped with AC. He has 4 coolers installed which are on all day from the am until closing - I explained when I left the review it didn't feel like any cooler was on as the only hot breeze was from the 42" fan, no other. The reason for the one star was his approach and how he made me feel during this last interaction. I let him know I'd like to finish the remainder of the year for my son and not have to interact with him again.

I didn't hear back for months…read more Summer of 2025 approached and I was continuously harassed via text, call, voicemail and email about my inquiry. Not just once, I'm talking weeks of constant badgering. I was initially very interested, but the lack of professionalism I experienced makes me never want to step foot at this business. It felt as though they were desperate for business so that's when my inquiry mattered. I'll politely give them 3 stars, simply because I did not experience their class first hand.

A special mention to their manager, Jezzica--she is simply the best! She goes above and beyond to make sure members are supported, and she's always willing to work with you based on your personal needs. That kind of dedication and care is rare and very much appreciated. Overall, this gym isn't just about fitness or self-defense--it's about building confidence, discipline, and valuable life skills.
