BJJ X Yoga is family owned and operated. After we discovered we were having our second child we decided to follow our dreams of opening up a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy and Yoga Studio. Head Jiu Jitsu Instructor Jeff Yumul is a well esteemed black belt under Pete the Greek of Chicago. Head Yoga Instructor Deanna received her RYT 200 hr certification from the highly regarded Chicago School of Yoga.

Friendly, knowledgeable BJJ studio. Cool people who want you to get better. Our kids LOVE the kids classes and have gone to a few tournaments as a school. Free parking, quick access from 35th. They also have good stretching yoga classes at different times there that are good. During covid classes are available in stage 3 or online.

Bjjxyoga is an amazing place to practice these arts as a new come to both practices I feel very welcome. I also enjoy how very knowledgeable and patient Jeff And Deanna are they answer every question and go slowly through each technique. Never do I ever feel out of place or dumb for not knowing how to do a technique they also do a great job with the kids my son loves coming to class he never wants to miss a day it's all he talks about for the next few days

This place offers a friendly environment. I tried it out for the first time and the instructor was helpful and friendly. The instructor broke down all the moves so that even a rookie like myself can perform the moves. I really liked this family ran gym and would highly recommend this gym. The instructor also teaches kids. I am definitely going back !!!

Definitely the best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu studio in Pilsen, Chicago. Professor Jeff Yumul has been able to teach me beautiful sweeps, passes, and finishes to up my game. His BJJ techniques has rubbed off onto me and continues to improve my techniques. The guys has competed in the Pan Am Games and worlds so you know he's going to help and push his students to proper technique and fast progressions. Best of all you get to do Yoga afterwards to finish after training. I don't know any studio in Chicago that does Yoga and BJJ combination but BJJ X YOGA. Definitely come roll with him and improve your sweep

BJJ X Yoga is a great place to practice Jiu Jitsu and Yoga . Jeff the instructor has the patience to work with all levels and is always asking for feedback. Deanna creates an amazing atmosphere for the yoga session. Overall I'm noticing that at my age the combination of Jiu Jitsu and yoga are like yin and yang. OSSS!

BJJ X Yoga Studio is a welcome addition to the Pilsen neighborhood. I've been practicing BJJ consistently for 8 years and yoga on and off for 15 years. Working in a small group environment Jeff and Deanna's were able to balance both beginner-level instruction and higher level details for the range of students. Both are very friendly and knowledgeable instructors and together they have built a welcoming and unique environment.
