I was visiting Iowa City and wanted to train some BJJ while I was in town. Citadel Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gave me a great place to train! The people were super welcoming and the new facility is incredible! Very clean and lots of space. I highly recommend you check them out.
I have been sending my two oldest boys, aged 5 and 6, to the kids' program. They have had a blast and have learned so much! The coaches are fantastic and give a lot of individualized instruction to the kids. They teach good values, toughness, and are amazing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coaches and practitioners. I cannot say enough good things about Citadel!
The gym, the culture, the instructors, the competition in the room - all top notch! Every single one of the instructors have absolutely unshakable integrity. What they’ve created in this gym is truly a gift to the Iowa City and BJJ community.
