My daughter has been training with Jiu Jitsu Academy since February. She has special needs and it has completely changed her life. She is more focused and way more determined. She has self-confidence that she has never had before. The kids class is Wednesday Thursday and Friday and well worth. Thank you Edgar and Melissa for all your hard work with my daughter!!

This place is legit! I walked in from out of town and immediately felt at home. Edgar was extremely welcoming and so was everyone that trains there. I enjoyed my time and learned a lot in the process. If you’re in Stillwater and can train here...lucky you.

Coach Edgar Escalante is amazing and the whole team is supportive and awesome. Coach Edgar addresses the physical and emotional challenges of learning BJJ and displays great patience and support for those practicing at all levels. No matter what level you are—from beginner to advanced—there is a place for you here and you’re always made to feel welcome. My BJJ family and my training at Jiu Jitsu Academy of Stillwater has been therapeutic to me on so many levels! Highly recommend!! There are adult classes, kids classes and yoga available at this location. Every one of those absolutely worth checking out!

I visit gyms every time I travel. Jiu Jitsu Academy offered great training with a clear focus on technique. Edgar is an experienced trainer, who has created a family style gym. I recommend this gym to both the experienced and beginner.

Need kid classes? Covered. Need MMA training? Covered. Edgar and the team offer multiple opportunities to all. The whole gym is every bit as welcoming as I could have hoped for and more. Theres no bjj gym Id rather attend.

Are you the kind of person that likes learning from a top notch instructor that gives his quality time to each individual, teaches all aspects of the art from self-defense to the “weekend warrior” all the way to combative sports such as used in the now popular MMA arena? Then, Edgar Escalante at Jiu Jitsu Academy of Stillwater is the only place for you. Now I know what I just said could sound very commercial, or artificial, even though it is not, but to explain on a more personal level, I’ve been practicing with Coach Escalante for over 4 years and feel I can say something about his character and what I have accomplished from his experience and precision teaching style he has developed over this time. Coach Escalante works “with” you, so it’s never a one size fits all program or way of teaching, he will make your strengths even stronger and help you discover your weakness and overcome them. I have witnessed incredible improvements in myself and my team mates with his guidance. Some specific personal benefits I have experienced are weight loss, balance improvement, body awareness and strength gains which overall lends itself to a good sense of well-being. If all these benefits were not enough, I also gained friends, team mates, a community of brothers and sisters with common goals and Coach Escalante fosters all those values in his Academy. At Jiu Jitsu Academy of Stillwater everyone feels welcome and part of our family.

Jiu Jitsu translates as the gentle art were leverage and technique allows you to defeat the bigger and stronger opponent. BJJ Academy of Stillwater teaches these fundamentals where you conserve your energy as you wear out your opponent and ultimately submit them with proper technique and leverage. If you want to learn BJJ, then this is the place to do it in Stillwater, OK. Edgar Escalante, the head instructor and owner of BJJ Academy of Stillwater, is truly dedicated to teaching his students the philosophy and the ways of Jiu Jitsu.I trained here for 3 months before moving out of state and I could truly feel the difference in my ability to survive the bigger opponent. I fell in love with Jiu Jitsu because of the way Edgar teaches it. He is very detailed in his instructions and shows you the importance of angles and proper body positioning. This place is a win-win in my book and I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone no matter what age or skill level. Trust me you wont be disappointed!On a side note, I just recently moved back to California and started looking for a new place to train and was blown away by the number of schools out here. I took advantage of a free introductory class and after it the instructor (a 3rd degree black belt) came up to me and said he was truly impressed with my only instructor (a two strip purple belt) Edgar Escalante! He said that Edgar did an amazing job at teaching me the fundamentals of Jiu Jitsu in 3 months! Thank you Edgar, I miss you guys!

It is the best school I have found in Stillwater, it is a school that teaches you a lot of technique, especially mind control, it is a new experience where children and adults can enjoy
