Bellum Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Bellum cultivates a fantastic culture of camaraderie, learning, and coach engagement. The coaches, Fabio and Derek, both pride themselves on teaching tactful Jiujitsu and using the full breath of their skill to work with each student. One of the most unique aspects of Bellum is that both coaches give insightful feedback after class to ensure student growth and development. You are not just a number here, you are a valued student. This culture results in an environment where everyone feels valued, safe, and respected. In addition to that foundation, Bellum has fantastic talent with many higher belts who share the Bellum culture. This is a great place to learn/ hone your skills! Lots of rolling. I highly recommend this gym for both Adults and kids.

Awesome place for a challenging experience or even a more casual approach if that's what you're looking for. Great people to spend time learning with, spanning a diverse spectrum of knowledge, skill, build, and intensity.

Very welcoming and safe environment, the two instructors have loads of experience and are teaching me a lot. I like the students are a mix of hobbyists and competitors. It feels everyone gets proper attention from the coaches. Overall a good time!

This dojo is legit and has my full respect. Those who teach are men of character. Those who watch their kids practice, seem to eventually end up joining the adult class. It's just that good.

Training BJJ for 3 years now at Bellum, this place is literally my second home, people are supportive, encouraging and pushing you to be better. Derek and Fabio are excellent coaches, it’s hard to describe everything in a review, but if you’re in Twin Cities and trying to get into martial arts as a novice or intermediate who wants advanced partners with good attitude, you need to come to Bellum! 💯
