I was vacationing in the area for the holiday season. I reached out via instagram to inquire about dropping in. I got messaged to call, I spoke with professor Ryan. I was able to take care of my scheduling and payment online prior to getting to the class. Upon arrival I was greeted by Steve and filled out a waiver. Then I got to chit-chat with professor Ryan a bit before class. The class was 2 hours with a warm up, self defense, Jiu jitsu technique and positional sparring. Really great class, as they say “the devil is in the details”, professor Ryan had the “invisible Jiu jitsu” tips and concepts to help out the whole class. He was able to help me with my stack passing! As a traveling brown belt, it’s always nice to experience other academies. The practitioners at Kama Jiu-Jitsu were tough and technical, but also very welcoming and friendly. I hope to return. Thank you for the hospitality and rolls! 🤙🤙🤙

Kama Jiu-Jitsu is an awesome place to learn and train Jiu-jitsu. Great people and also a great facility. I was on a visit to Dallas for a couple of days and was excited about the possibility to train at Kama Jiu-Jitsu. Took a private with Prof Ryan Young and had 2 days to go to regular group classes. I learned a lot in both, the private and group classes. After 11 years of Jiu-Jitsu I can genuinely say, this is one of the best gyms I've ever been to and trained at!

The training and community at Kama has been GREAT my last 6 years as a member. I think that any family or individual considering joining a BJJ gym, would be missing out if they didn’t stop by Kama.

This jiu-jitsu gym is really awesome! It has helped our son learn and thrive in this martial art discipline in ways that we never imagined. The facility is excellent with two separate training areas. There is also a kids playroom for the kiddos/siblings to hang out in. We’re so grateful we found you! Thank you to Ryan and all of the instructors there.
