Our son has trained at Magness BJJ for over three years now. The coaches instill confidence and self-discipline in the kids. After sitting in school all day, our little man needs a place to run around and release all of his pent up tension. This is the place to do it! Whether you want to compete and win all of the medals, or just have a place to go and be part of a community geared toward becoming a better person--this is the place for you.

My seven- and five-year-old have been training at Magness BJJ Academy for approximately 10 months. My husband and I appreciate the family friendly atmosphere, patience, and skill of the coaches. My babies were extremely nervous and somewhat unsure when they first began, however, I began to see an improvement in their skills and overall confidence after a few months of attending. The coaches focus on safe and efficient training, but are aware and extremely responsive to your child’s needs. We highly recommend Magness BJJ.

We have had all three of our children attend Magness and they are absolutely loving it. The training is so professional and they make sure each and every kid is always learning and enjoying it at the same time. It has given all three of my children confidence and that is because of the great training they have. Coach Michael alongside all the other training coaches are absolutely amazing and so patient with each and every kid in the class. Not only do they have classes for children but also have classes for adults. I have been going for the last couple months and I have seen the class grow everyday. If youre looking to put your children in something this is the place.

After training for 10 years at excellent schools with top tier instructors in Florida, I recently moved to Grand Prairie due to a job change. I was very anxious about finding a school that would meet my expectations. After meeting Professor Michael Magness and attending my first class, I knew I found a new home. Without a doubt, this has been the best training and instruction I have experienced. Professor Magness’s knowledge and ability to pass that knowledge on through training has enabled me to improve my game significantly. Professor Magness creates an atmosphere of competitiveness and camaraderie that makes training a pleasure.

This gym is amazing! They have a morning class and an evening class during the week so it fits into my schedule perfectly.Coach magness is a great coach. He breaks everything down and makes it really easy to understand the techniques. He gave me a free week to try out the gym and I loved it.They have all skill levels from beginners to high level pros. I highly recommend anyone interested in learning jiujitsu to come check it out.

My son (6) and daughter (5) have been going to Magness BJJ for 6 months. The teachers are extremely knowledgeable and work well with the students. The environment is a great place for young kids to gain confidence and discipline while also having fun. My two kids love going to class and seeing their progress.

I currently train at a Renzo Gracie affiliate in NYS, but I have trained here as a visitor many times. There is an open and friendly atmosphere that reminds me of my home gym. I always feel welcome and learn something new with every visit. There is great open mat space with plenty of room to roll and drill. My young niece and nephew also train there and they are great with the kids as well!

This is a great place to learn and grow. I started coming to this gym with no prior experience and every person Ive met is friendly, helpful, and genuinely cares about helping each other become better. This is the only gym Ive ever attended, and I have no intention of changing.

Weve been taking our two little boys (5 & 6) to Magness BJJ for a little over 6 months and all we can say is WOW! They love it, we love it! All the instructors/coaches work very well with children, we feel very comfortable there. Parents and coaches have been very friendly since day 1. The boys have learned so many skills and lessons in the past six months and have become more confident, we can definitely tell a difference. We really enjoy how close this gym is to Midlothian and that classes are offered to kids Monday through Thursday! We highly recommend Magness BJJ as a wholesome activity for children.

Michael has such great patience with the young kids in his class. He teaches calmly and consistently and helps the kids stay focused while understanding that 5 year olds will be 5 year olds. Haha.The gym is welcoming and encouraging for beginners. I started a month ago at age 28 (never took a martial arts class in my life) and from day 1, everyone is encouraging and tries to help you practice and learn techniques. It’s a great workout.

The first time I went into Magness, I felt so welcomed by everyone training! As I personally keep going 2-3 times a week, it’s something I look forward to in my day. No matter if you had a great day or a bad day in class, you always feel like you’ve accomplished something new each visit. I highly recommend going out of your comfort zone and trying it out!

Magness is a quality gym. The instructors explain everything clearly, also going into why you do certain techniques and the advantages and drawbacks of each. Everyone is encouraging and wants you to learn and grow. Just an incredible community and culture here. I couldnt have picked a better place to get started.

Great training!! We visited from out of town and everyone was incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend Magness bjj to anyone in the area looking to begin their bjj journey or even just drop by and train with some new people! We will 100% be making a stop there every time we’re in the Dallas area :)

Review №19

One of the best BJJ Gyms in Dallas area! I recently evacuated because of Hurricane Laura from Louisiana and they took me in with open arms. Theres a lot of which makes this gym so incredibly amazing but Ill start with the most important areas-1) EXCELLENT TECHNICAL BJJ INSTRUCTION - The teaching staff breaks things down in great ways and also give you a ton of attention. Professor Magness and their other coaches made sure I could not only perform the techniques taught, but also understood them and their principles. I also like how he does core value patches for the kids program which teaches them to not only excel on the mats but off of them as well! Other positives are his positional training style of jiu jitsu that he implements.2) NO EGOS - This is a rare gym where you have true champions training with you on a daily basis and there is no enforced hierarchy. Professor Magness teaches everyone and is one of the most down to earth guys youll meet. This same thing goes for all the instructors and kills all the egos in the gym, cult mentality and so on. I have been to many gyms that have those problems and you will not find that at Magness BJJ!3) TEAM SUPPORT - If you train there, you train hard and you get to know people on a different level. To put things in perspective if I am going through a tough time being on the mats is one of the best things, but in addition to that I am also around an entire support system of well grounded men and women. In a different perspective, no matter who you are at that school you will get support.4) Magness BJJ TRAINS HARD - Im 35 years old as I write this. I do not have the energy as I once did, nor the recovery. Professor Magness is also around my age, as well as some of the other upper belts. I never knew what I had in me until I trained at Magness BJJ in the heat and I have been training BJJ for 7 years. They train very hard, but you can do it. If you are in the area please hit them up and give their academy a try!

Review №31

My family (son and wife) and I started going to Magness in November 2019 after going to a different BJJ gym for about a year and a half. The difference, especially for my son, was like night and day. The structure of the classes, the fact that there are more than enough coaches present for the kids to get proper instruction, and just that simple fact that they remembered my sons name (its not the most common of names) his second day in class was more than enough to convince us that this was the gym for us. My wife and I started classes this month and the overall friendly, yet challenging environment is just what we have been looking for in a gym. I would highly recommend Magness to anyone who is looking for a well-run gym with a great environment!

Magness BJJ is seriously for real!! I started my two boys in a reputable gym 2 years ago. We’ve participated in tournaments and have seen much competition. When we first arrived to Magness BJJ our eyes were opened to how a professional, dedicated, clean and welcoming gym was supposed to look like. Needless to say, my boys have blossomed in only a month and I’ve noticed their new found love for the sport they fell in love with. I cannot say enough good things about the coaches at Magness BJJ.

Review №36

When I first came to the facility last year for the trial week, I knew on day one that my kids would train here going forward. I was impressed with how the coaches tend to each child and how patient they are with them. My children, ages 9 and 6, have trained at Magness for a year and I couldn’t be more pleased with the progress they have made in such a short period of time.Magness doesn’t just teach great Jijitsu but also reinforces core values that are very important for kids to learn. Magness has a recognition program that reinforces values for being responsible, doing the right thing even when no one is watching, etc. My kiddos love when being recognized for displaying good behavior.All of the coaches at Magness are amazing and I can’t thank them enough for what they do on a daily basis.

Love this school. I have been out of bjj for many years now and first day back I knew I loved this school. The coaching is excellent and the students are also.

A DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH!Being a newbie to Jiu-Jitsu and really not knowing where to start my journey, I came across Magness BJJ by chance having looked all over the metroplex for a gym that would welcome me in, fit my work schedule, be affordable, have a variety of students of different skill levels, and most of all not make me feel intimidated by my newness to BJJ.I signed up for the 7-day free, no pressure trial, in hopes that Magness BJJ would give me all that I was looking for. Only 2-weeks in but I wish that I would have found them sooner. Being 52 yrs old and walking into a new gym with a variety of belts may normally seem intimidating but not once have I felt like the new guy. I personally feel that all belts take a certain pride in helping out everyone to make us all better.I could definitely continue to tell you how much I enjoy Magness BJJ but I rather hear about your experience from you personally after your journey begins!

Review №41

I have been going for 3 months after taking an 8 year break from BJJ after training for 2 years. Classes here are Great. The Instructors teach well, everyone I met is there to learn and not to try and prove something.The material is current and I am learning new things that were not around when I trained years ago and a lot of the things that I learned back then don’t work anymore.Plus the price is unbeatable and you can see the reviews are amazing. I highly recommend it. If you are advanced they have a plethora of advanced belts to roll with. If you are a beginner they have every type size and shape of white belts to train with. When I roll with the White belts There is obvious improvement every week from each one of them. This shows me that they make sure to put the students first and you have the opportunity to learn as fast as you want to.I highly recommend it.

Review №42

Nothing but great things to say about Madness’ program and facility. I will say I was extremely nervous about introducing Jujitsu to my daughters at age 5 and 7. But they and I quickly learned the care, compassion, and protection each coach has for every student. Now age 9 and 11, both girls enjoy attending the classes so much, if we miss a day they give me a hard time. They’ve built long life friendships and the confidence to tackle obstacles outside of grappling. I highly recommend this gym! Oh and the unlimited classes at a flat rate helps too. :)

We really appreciate this team of professionals and the work they do. They don’t just provide technical training in the art of BJJ, but they teach the children life skills they need even off the mat. Our child has grown so much while training here. It’s been one of the best investments we’ve made.

If you are looking for a great workout, are sick of the same old cardio and weight routines or are looking for a skill that will enhance all areas of you life, try Jiu Jitsu. I am very new to this journey and I am glad to make this journey with Magness. The facilities are good, the coaches are great but what I love the most are the other students. As a new student I am easy prey for anyone that wants to crush me. But the other students I have worked with are patient, instructional and really helped me learn about Jiu Jitsu. If you are a little afraid to come to your first class, that’s cool; so was everyone else when they went to their first class. Give it a shot and see how much fun it is.

We have been training at Magness for over a year now. Here at Magness the coaches have taught my children so much more than just the skill of the sport. They have taught my children not only to love and respect others but to love and respect theirselves. The coaches treat my children as if they were their own. They know how to tend to each child individually according to what they need. Its not just a job to them. Here at Magness we are family. We love it here and wouldnt want to train anywhere else!!!

We brought our son here to start training bjj. The staff and students were friendly. The coaches are very good technically, but more than that, they have earned the respect of the students. Every child is different, but weve been consistently pleased to see they give our son chances to feel proud of himself, opportunities to treat defeat as a learning experience, and the understanding to be aggressive in action while primarily respecting the health and safety of a training partner. We highly recommend this gym.

Great place for the kids to practice self discipline while eating a slice of humble pie! Professor Mike (I call him that because hes a black belt!) also assigns homework to the kids where they have to define and explain certain words/phrases and how they relate to training and everyday life (i.e. Respect, Loyalty, Persistence, Sportsmanship, hyperbole). Hes a great coach and creates an awesome family environment too.My kid loves the Hawaiian kids instructor. Hes compassionate, funny, dedicated yet firm. He has the ability to modify his coaching style to meet the learning needs of all of the kids. He explains techniques and strategies so that its easy for them to understand. Hes humble but very easy on the eyes. Rumor has it he used to model but he feels a greater reward in giving back to his community instead of making a lot of money on the runways and photo ops in New YorkThe other coaches are nice too.

Theyve keep the price about 60% below the other gyms in the area without cutting any corners. For example: the location is better than a lot of other gyms Ive been to (parking lot is safe, no break-ins to my knowledge, and large mats, clean facilities, etc.), the coaching is great (they consistently bring home team trophies from tournaments), and theres a variety of training partners for all sizes, strengths, and skill levels. If you prefer to go light theres plenty of opportunity, and if you want to roll hard and test yourself you wont be disappointed with the level of competition available.Also, you can go month to month here whereas some other gyms in this area have required a one year contract.Best gym by far.

Came in as a curious kid and was quickly greeted and treated like family. After years of hard training I became a kids coach and the level of respect, patience, and guidance that all coaches at Magness give the kids has been passed on to me .Working with kids for many years of my life and growing up with a mother who owned multiple daycares I was super impressed with how the coaches made everything super simple as well as fun for the kids .I’m super happy to be contributing to it as an adult now . Not only have found a love for the sport I found love for the great coaches and teammates as everyone is super nice and welcoming . In my opinion it’s the definition of a martial arts school . You won’t find better .

I love Magnesss approach to novices. Theyre patient and instructive. My 12 year-old son just started and they had him feeling like a part of the team from day one. Its very helpful to have the free week of instruction so you can decide if BJJ is for you risk-free. Coach Mike is friendly and helpful, as are his wife Lucia and the other coaches. The facility feels very welcoming, and my son is learning to submit his ego with each class. The price is great for up to 5 days of practice each week!

I’ll start off by saying how phenomenal this school is. I have zero experience in jiu jit su and after my first day I was no longer scared to look like an outcast. I was no longer afraid to show that I had zero experience. The coaches and even the students are super motivating and give reassurance that you’re doing great. They don’t just let you walk in here and get tossed around. They take time in teaching their students the works and foundations to things. It’s usually hard for me to stick to training for example like going to the gym but after my first class, Magness has been my go to. I highly recommend this school to any law enforcement personnel as these techniques can be used on the street, and if you have children don’t make that an excuse, they have kid classes as well. I promise this will save your life!

We were searching for something to boost my sons confidence and we hit the jackpot! Michael Magness is an incredibly patient, kind instructor. My son has excelled and he absolutely LOVES attending classes. He has only been in class for about six months and is about to participate in his first tournament - there is no way he would have been confident enough to do anything like that before. Michaels wife, Lucia, is involved in the Academy and they are very welcoming and helpful. We highly recommend Magness BJJ for anyone currently training, or looking to start training in the martial arts!!

You think I will give up my wife and my kids name so you could give them a hard time being there last month in your gym its already been paid for so thats the reason its the last month they are going. Even if you find a way to take this review down its not just us plenty of more parents in your gym that are unhappy. So be honest and stop with the fake5 star reviews. And dont ever call me a Hackle I think the only Hackle here is the main Professor that runs that damn business. And before I forget the patches you make these kids work for in the gym about honesty in hard work and respect how about you try working for some of those too see how many you can get what throws me off how does somebody that acts the way you act earns a black belt.

Has been a family affair for our family and have enjoyed every minute of it! The confidence level of our children has grown exponentially and have made new friendships. Instruction is always led by head instructor and always has assistants with him to make sure children are following proper technique instruction.

Just like all the other reviews Coach Michael, Anthony and Team Magness are nothing short of amazing. The material is fantastic but one thing I would like to emphasize is the family environment. Not about a kids and adult class but the feel of the team. I had discomfort from hitting my knee and decided to take some time off. Right when my knee was starting to feel better I rolled my ankle on a jog. In total I was out of training for 3 almost 4 months. Going back to Magness BJJ I was nervous because I couldnt shake the feeling I let my family down by not being there. When I did come back it was to open arms and no harassment about missing time. I know in my heart this place is where I want to grow, advance in rank and spend my time on the mat. I am definitely giving this place 5 stars.John

I travel a lot and visit gyms in the areas Im at. Magness BJJ is one of my favorites. Mike is an excellent instructor. If you are interested in learning the sport, or want a place for your kids to learn discipline and gain self confidence, then this is the academy for you and/or your kids. Theres always a ton of people on the mat of all shapes, ages and abilities.

We love Magness BJJ. The coaching staff is absolutely amazing with the children. My son was a bit intimidated about starting since he didnt know anybody. Coach Magness shadowed him until he felt comfortable. It was really frustrating to see my son try to adapt to a fresh new environment, but each and every staff member made sure to make the transition painless. 100% recommendation

My children go to this placed. They are really wounderful with the kids. They are very interactive with the kids. My kids are even behaving better at home. Not only do they teach the kids jiu-jitsu they also teach them life skills as well. Excellent place. I would highly recommend this to anyone ..

We are new to this school, but were welcome from day one. My son loves going to class again and it is wonderful to see.There is always plenty of coaches on the mat everyday and no playing around on the mat in class is so important. The environment is so conducive to learning. Cant say enough great things about this school.

The experience I had at this place while traveling on a training tour was one of the best of all! I was welcomed in like a brother. I learned new techniques that I still apply to my game and am very grateful for the time I spent there. Thank you Magness Family. I will return!
