Legion Jiu Jitsu / CheckMat Nashville is an excellent place to train for anyone looking to learn self defense and fundamentals as well as those interested in high level competition. First-rate instruction and the community is friendly, respectful, and supportive. Head professor Sean is an outstanding teacher and provides positive instruction for everyone, regardless of prior experience. All of the other professors and coaches are amazing as well. Membership allows you to train at their other locations and they have options for different class times throughout the day. Strongly recommend to anyone interested in learning BJJ or stopping by for a visit!

Dropped in for a class really enjoyed myself here! Everyone was great training partners and the coach took time to walk around and correct everyones technique. beautiful facility with showers too! I will definetly stop by again!

I dropped in as I was in town visiting family. I had a great time attending both the fundamentals and advanced gi classes. Both classes full of many different people and body types, all of which were very friendly and skilled. The instructors and professors were all very knowledgeable and displayed a great attention to detail when helping students with techniques. Definitely will stay connected with the folks there and drop in whenever I’m in town.

Excellent instruction and great atmosphere. I will definitely be back next time in town. The students and instructors are great people, very welcoming community!

Dropped in for the BJJ Basics class while on a trip. Class was great: excellent coach, great team, and quality instruction. If I lived in Nashville I’d be a member

We were visiting from out of town and stopped by to try out a class, we really enjoyed the class! great pace and a great work out. Everyone was super nice. we had a great time . Definitely recommend.

Awesome training at a great school. All the instructors are professional and knowledgeable. They create a great environment of training for those that just want some self defense and basic knowledge all the way up to high level competition and mixed martial arts. Fantastic place to train!

Awesome morning competition class! I hope to be back again for the rolls. Being an assistant coach at another academy...the class structure, instruction, and team atmosphere was perfect. Thank you againNick ShoupeAsst. CoachThe Hot Box JiuJitsu - Prattville AL

I attended my first class at Legion Jiu Jitsu Nashville today and had a great time. The professor, as well as the students were very welcoming. Overall it has a great vibe. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a gym to train!

Great instruction for all levels! They are super “beginner friendly” as well as offering tough training for more advanced practitioners. I’m proud to be a part of the Legion family!!!!

The place to be for anyone looking to train in Nashville. Sean is not only extremely knowledgeable but a very good teacher. I appreciated Seans attention to detail and the sense of community created by the friendly and welcoming environment.

I cannot give enough stars for Legion Jiu Jitsu. I was in Nashville for work and Prof Sean and all of his students were extremely welcoming and treated like one of their own. The attention to detail and techniques Prof Sean was teaching were on point and I was very impressed with his knowledge of Jiu JItsu If I lived in Nashville, I would make Legion JJ my home. Once again Prof Sean, I want to thank you and your students for the hospitality.Jason

Legion’s Jiujitsu is a great place for many kinds of people of all ages ranging from toddler programs, kids programs, teenage programs, and adults. The environment is very friendly and kind yet also humbling and competitive for those wishing to compete. A Legions membership grants you access to their three different locations in middle Tennessee which also provides an adversity in training partners. The professors and coaches who instruct the classes are genuinely interested in their students and want them to reach their fullest potential not only in the sport/art of jiujitsu but in life overall as well. Jiujitsu itself is a life changing martial art for many if not everybody who invest their time, thought and energy into it. Legions provides Nashville a great school to legitimately teach you this martial art with many in-class opportunities to get one on one instruction from the extremely knowledgeable professors and coaches. They not only teach you the steps but also thoroughly explain how and why each technique works the way it does. I highly recommend legions to anybody looking to take on a new challenge or lifestyle change. It will be one of the best decisions that you can make.

Best gym in the area hands down. Great community, coaches, and instruction. 10/10 recommend.

Awesome community and even better instructors. Best BJJ gym in TN!

Excellent gym in the Nashville area. Great instructors . Very friendly and competitive environment

Ive trained jiu-jitsu for a while at a few gyms out of state. move to town was looking for a new academy. I tryed some gyms in the area they treated me just like another membership. Then I tryed legion checkmat nashville . I was welcome by professor Sean who actually wanted to get know me and made me feel like part of a community his jiu-jitsu and leadership are incredible. whether your new to jiu-jitsu or coming form another gym give legion a try you will make great friends with your teammates and every coach will welcome you and teach you something new.

Love training here and at every location with Legion. Every professors just has tremendous skills and knowledge and the members training are also a top notch community.

Great classes, always clean facilities! Very friendly and understanding coaches! Great place to train martial arts! I am the Kickboxing Coach! So Maybe I am biased, but I love training with Sean Patton!! He is a phenomenal professor and has single handle changed my Jiu Jitsu game. Not only that, but he has given me a dream!!

Awesome place to come and learn Jiu Jitsu!!. Professor Sean is great leader mentor, and coach. It is proven with the hard work shown at this gym. Very clean facility!! Very Professional both on and off the mats. Extremely inviting for ALL AGES.

Nice, clean facility and great place to train. Professor Sean Patton is very knowledgeable and a great coach. He provides a very inviting atmosphere for in-town visitors who want to cross-train and a gym to call home for out of town visitors. Classes are provided with detailed instruction and a welcoming environment to train.

Legion Jiu Jitsu / CheckMat Nashville is a fantastic place to learn and train a Jiu-Jitsu for all levels of experience! Professor Sean does an excellent job teaching complex techniques in a way that anyone can grasp. I started training here about three months ago, and absolutely love it!

Excellent place to train Jiu-Jitsu. World Champion instructors and an amazing group of men and women at all levels who train here. Highly recommend Legion for anyone who is looking to compete or just learn Jiu-Jitsu!!

Great people and space. I visited from Toronto and they welcomed me with open arms and great rolls/instruction.

I’ve now been training at Legion Jiu Jitsu for going on 3 months now. I absolutely love and recommend Legion JJ to everyone who’s interested in BJJ. I have a form of muscular dystrophy and what comes with that is mobility issues. Professor Sean and Legion coaches have taken the time to make the drills and techniques we go over in class more geared towards my mobility issues. Allowing me to continue to train and further my Jiu Jitsu journey. I can not begin to thank Legion JJ enough for everything they’ve done since I’ve started to train there.

I’ve been training jiu-Jitsu for 10 years in many different cities. This place has some of the best staff, Facilities, cleanliness and vibes that I’ve seen. There’s World champion teaching staff who are great at leading you to your own personal jiu-Jitsu goals.There’s also many many nice friendly people training there as well as really talented jiu-Jitsu athletes.

Legion BJJ is the best! The coaches are amazing! My son looks forward to class and has learned so much! I highly recommend Legion BJJ Nashville.

Stopped by while visiting Nashville, great gym, great people, great instructors and a friendly atmosphere

Greatest place to be.
