From the reviews
Aces Jiu Jitsu Club has really helped me build confidence in my ability to defend myself in a real life self-defense scenario. I’ve never get more empowered and I have previously taken many self-defense classes. This club teaches real techniques that actually work.
I have been going to the downtown location since late last month (August) and my only regret is that I wasn't able to do BJJ much earlier in life🤣 Aces has been such a great place and coach Ty is awesome!
As a disabled veteran dealing with chronic illness, TBI, and limited range of motion, finding an accommodating gym can be challenging. But Ace's Jiu-Jitsu Club is truly exceptional - it's far more than just a gym, it's an incredibly supportive community.
I was in Austin for the holidays and decided to get in some training while I was home. My home gym doesn't have an affiliate in Austin, so Coach Ty invited me to drop in to Aces on Christmas Day to get some rolls in. It ended up being just me and him, so we got some really good training in.
New to muay thai? Start at Aces Jiu Jitsu Club
Aces Jiu Jitsu Club comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first muay thai class at Aces Jiu Jitsu Club
Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
