I cannot say enough positive things about Straight Blast Gym Calgary! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm by Becca and Mike, who are outstanding instructors. They are incredibly kind, welcoming, and friendly, which immediately helped ease my nerves as a complete beginner to Brazilian jiu jitsu.

The facility itself is great—super cool and impeccably clean. The atmosphere is enjoyable and supportive, which is perfect for anyone, like myself, who was initially anxious about trying something new.

Despite having absolutely ZERO prior experience, I wanted to develop self-defense skills and get in shape, so I decided to try Brazilian jiu jitsu. Mike and Becca's expertise and patience have been invaluable. They take the time to explain techniques thoroughly and ensure you feel comfortable and included.

I am so excited for my classes each week and am having an absolute blast learning. If you're considering trying Brazilian jiu jitsu, especially if you're a woman feeling hesitant or nervous, I highly recommend Straight Blast Gym Calgary. Becca and Mike create a fantastic environment where everyone can thrive and grow.

Thank you Becca and Mike!

Great classes

I started BJJ with Mike and Becca at SBG Calgary a couple weeks ago. My goal is to lose weight and get in shape. I had 0 previous experience with martial arts and was looking for a place where I could have an introduction to Jiu Jitsu under someone with a lot of experience.
Mike and Becca were really welcoming and are incredibly patient. The Foundations classes are organized per day, and even if you miss a class, it will be repeated afterwards on another day.
The gym is inside a huge sports complex, so it is a living space for other people too.
If you're on the fence about whether you should start BJJ, I highly recommend you take a trial class. BJJ is an awesome physical activity where you get to learn self-defense and meet inspiring people.

My husband and 2 boys love Becca and Mike. They are very engaging and have a wealth of experience. They take their time with each group and never rush in between classes. 5 star hands down!

I joined SBG with my two sons and we have become obsessed with Jui-Jitsu ever since. Our obsession stems from the world class instruction we are receiving from Mike and Rebecca. The coaching is simply amazing and the environment Mike and Rebecca have created is welcoming and fosters a positive learning environment. If you are considering joining a BJJ gym, or looking to expand on previous training, then look no further.

Mike and Becca are amazing instructors. They are very experienced and immediately make you feel welcome. I am learning a lot, the classes are fun and a good workout. My mobility is also improving which is not something I was expecting but is an added bonus. Thank you Mike and Becca!
