I didn't really know what to expect when I found Alliance Champions Center on Google Maps but I was pleasantly surprised by the high caliber jiu jitsu and the facility itself. If you're looking for a place to work out, this gym has everything you need: turf, cardio machines, barbells, bumper plates, etc. Now, if you're looking for a place to train Brazilian jiu jitsu, this is one of the top places in the country. Professor Rafael is a incredible teacher and his keen eye for details helped me revamp my game in a short time frame. His students share his passion for the sport and welcomed me with open arms. I highly recommend Alliance Champions Center to anyone who wants a holistic workout or is looking for quality jiu jitsu training. I thoroughly enjoyed my week here and cannot wait to visit again!

Rolling with new people is already concerning, especially since I'm an older grappler (59), but Dan and his crew made me feel incredibly welcomed. He introduced me to some of his instructors, and I ended up having some solid technical rolls with some great people. Everyone was super attentive, and eyes were on the mat the whole time, making sure everyone stayed safe. The environment in the gym was communal, and it was awesome to see families training together, husbands, wives, and kids. From start to finish, I felt welcome, and more importantly, felt safe. Great gym, great people, and I will be back the next time I'm in Greenville

Sifu Jason, Sifu Aaron, Sifu Jazz, and Sifu Rusty deserve so much credit for the time, dedication, and commitment they give to each and every student. Their passion for what they do shows in every class. What makes this academy stand out is that they don't just teach martial arts--they teach history, philosophy, and the why behind the art. Students learn that martial arts isn't only about physical skill, but also about developing the mind and spirit. The instructors emphasize how knowledge, discipline, and understanding can help you navigate life with confidence, respect, and integrity. The environment is welcoming, supportive, and family-oriented. Every student is valued, challenged, and encouraged to become their best self--on and off the mat. We are so grateful to be part of the Greenville Academy of Martial Arts family and can't recommend it highly enough!

This is not something I ever would have seen myself doing, but Alejandro is so motivating, warm, and amazing at what he does, and the environment feels like such a welcoming family that I really wanted to be a part of it. My love for this place has only grown since. All the instructors are not only highly skilled but also incredibly patient and supportive, and the training is perfect for both beginners and experienced martial artists. And this dojo does extremely well in competitions, producing the top fighters in the region. Lots of medals come back to the dojo after every travel event! (But also know that competing isn't required to be a part of things!) Best of all, the confidence my kids have gained from being a part of this dojo has carried over to school and other sports and activities. They are just flourishing and we attribute so much of it to Alejandro and the wonderful environment and team here. If you're an adult just looking to gain fitness, that's my story. I was always very active and have done everything from cross fit to a few ultramarathons, but the training here has developed my physical strength, balance, discipline, and overall fitness. And I've enjoyed making new friends. The facility is top-notch, with ample space for training and all the necessary equipment for whatever you are looking for. If you're looking for a fantastic place to learn karate and grow as a martial artist, this dojo is the place to be! Being a part of this family has been one of the most special things we have ever done.

The men are respectful, supportive, and great training partners. Beyond the excellent instruction, the sense of community is what truly sets this gym apart.
