More than a gym, it's a home away from home to everyone that makes that important decision to walk through the door. 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu Chicago is a room full of technically proficient Monsters, world class instructors and family that has built a bond that truly embodies the fact that martial arts impacts your life far beyond the techniques you learn. This place not only turned into a formidable Jiu-Jitsu practitioner, it saved my life and I know it can do the same for you.

My husband and I dropped in here while visiting family in Chicago this past weekend. Everyone at the gym was very nice and welcoming and coach Josh was great. We really enjoyed the lesson and learned so much in just the one class. The gym is aesthetically very nice and also super clean. We will definitely be back in the future when we are visiting the city.

Coach Josh is dedicated to his craft and his students. From day one he made me feel welcome within his gym. The team is also a group of awesome individuals who make the experience even better. If you are looking to learn about BJJ/wrestling, I could not recommend this place and coach Josh enough. Great coach, great atmosphere, and awesome teammates.

I dropped into 10th planet Chicago when visiting home and had a great experience. Everyone was immediately welcoming and had no issue finding drilling and sparring partners. Coach Josh clearly has a passion for the sport and fosters a great feel in the gym. There was a huge emphasis on drilling and technique, and in just the few drop in sessions I added elements to my game. I will drop in whenever I am visiting Chicago. The students were all welcoming and happy to share their knowledge with me
