Supportive, safe environment with instructors who know a lot about BJJ and how best to teach it. Nice mix of classes based on different levels and goals. The students I’ve met and rolled with there are welcoming and friendly. Socius has a strong community and a good vibe.
Great instructor and awesome students!
The most important thing about this gym that it takes care of its members. Everyone wants to see each other succeed and there are no egos. This makes it a safe place to learn and succeed in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
The Gi, 35+ Gi, No Gi, and Wrestling instruction is top notch. The instructors provide modifications to the moves to fit the mobility constraints of its members.
Finally, the facility is clean and well-kept and there are two fully enclosed shower stalls to ensure privacy.
I highly recommend this gym.
Great Club with welcoming and positive atmosphere. Well structured classes in both gi and no gi as well as open mat training opportunities. The perfect place to train for a beginner like myself.
As of now I’ve been going for around 3-4 months and I don’t see myself ever leaving the gym. Everyone is super friendly and helpful and willing to teach. The whole environment of the gym is great. And Randal, Caleb, Mike and Jeff are all great coaches who explain everything very well and break down all techniques so that you understand them. Would definitely recommend if you are looking to get into jiu-jitsu
We are so happy with the training our boys are receiving at Socius BJJ. It is obvious Randal has put a lot of thought into the curriculum and we can already see real progress in our sons’ skill development. They receive individual feedback that is honest and constructive. The environment is friendly and the facilities are safe and comfortable.
The ethos and overall philosophy of the gym, as described on the website, is evident in the way people interact in the space. This is as important to me as the skills my children are learning as I feel they are part of a larger community of people committed to helping each other improve.
We are very happy at Socius and would recommend it to anyone.
I have had my two kids here since the very first day they opened. This is the best place in Winnipeg to take your kids to. Unlike other BJJ gyms in Winnipeg- you have to earn your belts and know the material- the moves- drills to earn your stripes and be promoted in belts. You are not just given a belt! Which is the best, my two kids have improved significantly since coach Randal became their instructor. The facility is extremely clean, with no doors! And everyone is very friendly. Randal treats every student respectfully and has a structured class! I drive past three other gyms to bring my kids to this one- 40 minutes away from our home- but well worth it! I will miss this place when we relocate this summer. Thank you Randal for all of your professionalism, knowledge, and skill!!!
I can’t say enough about this gym!! But sign up! You won’t regret it!!
The studio is very clean. comfortable and friendly.
Absolutely phenomenal classes! We stopped in for a drop-in for the wrestling and no-go class and I have no complaints. Great coaches, great training partners and super cool facility. Very happy with my time here at socius BJJ
Great school with super nice instructors/ owner, big and clean space, friendly environment!
I dropped in for a BJJ class while I was in Winnipeg and the team and Socius was welcoming. Professor Randall is very knowledgeable and the facilities are clean and spacious. I highly recommend checking out this gym when you are in town!
Beautiful Academy with a spacious layout. Fantastic rolls and great instruction.
From the moment I walked in, coaches and students alike were incredibly welcoming and supportive. The instructors are knowledgeable and skilled at breaking down not just the most complex techniques, but the nuances that make the real difference in every technique. The atmosphere is laid-back and encouraging, so it’s easy to focus on learning and improving at your own pace. Having experienced several other MMA schools over the past few decades, I’m grateful to have found and highly recommend Socius!
