We’re ALL About Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Many Madison MMA gyms offer a “buffet” of martial arts like fitness kickboxing, self-defense, karate, etc. Not us.
Our focus is teaching authentic Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
That’s because we think Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is the most effective and complete self-defense system in the world. It’s also the best full-body mma workout available, and just plain addictive to learn.

“Jiu Jitsu keeps me very fit, and it keeps me motivated to do better. It also gave me my self confidence back because I was struggling with very severe depression from horrible life circumstances. It gave me a reason to keep pushing forward and now am almost 100% better than what I used to be.”

“I originally found Journey Jiu Jitsu Madison offer online and got the 3-class trial offer to just try casually. I couldn’t predict that I would fall in love with the gym, the people, and the amazing workouts! It is an inclusive, welcoming environment, and that’s important to me. I feel right at home. I highly recommend Journey!!!”
