wHO WE ARE

At High Noon BJJ, we believe that the path to mastering Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu lies not in endless, static drills, but in a dynamic and engaging training environment. Our training sessions are built around a framework of carefully designed “task-based games.” These aren’t your average drills; they are dynamic scenarios where we strategically introduce specific challenges and limitations that encourage you to explore, adapt, and discover effective solutions in real-time, just as you would in a live roll or competition.

You won’t just learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu; you’ll experience it. You’ll develop a deep and intuitive understanding of the art, build unwavering confidence, and forge lasting bonds within our supportive community. If you’re ready to embark on a BJJ journey that is as challenging as it is rewarding, and as fun as it is effective, we invite you to experience the High Noon BJJ difference. Step onto our mats and discover the power of learning through doing.

what our students say

Rated 5 out of 5

"My jiu-jitsu coach took me to High Noon for some cross-training in advance of No-Gi Worlds, and I had a fantastic experience. The structure of the all-levels class achieved this rare balance of hard physical work and highly technical, detail-oriented training. I kept up a sweat the entire time, but I also felt like I picked up a lot of useful new knowledge along the way. The pacing was perfect - physically challenging enough that I was never bored, but also never too tired to engage with the concepts being taught."

“High Noon is an absolutely amazing place to train. I'm not an official member, but train with their fantastic womens crew once per week, and am treated like family every time I'm there. Tim and Maia are great coaches who truly care about everyone who walks through the doors. They've let me into their team and treated me with such kindness and openness. Truly a great atmosphere and community they've built!”

“One of the best grappling/BJJ gyms in the DMV area. The coaches are extremely professional and teach at a very high level. If you want to learn how to defend yourself, get the competitive juices flowing again or just looking for a great BJJ gym, I strongly recommend checking out High Noon.”

"Can't help but love this place... The coaches are enthusiastic and professional and give the kids a dynamic hour of full on exercise, skills, and sparring. There are plenty of classes for our three kids to choose from and my husband is hooked as well. We go almost 3-4x a week and I never have to nag the kids to get ready because they are ready to go each day. They are starving for dinner afterwards and sleep really well from the exercise."
