The Basics and Fundamentals is our beginner program for adults. In this program, you will learn the 45 core techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in a fun, safe, and cooperative environment. Each one-hour lesson addresses one standing and one ground self-defense technique. You can start the program at any time and participate in any class without previous experience and since safety is our number one concern.
The Advanced Program is a clearly defined, systematic advanced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program designed to take you from blue to black belt. By organizing all of Jiu-Jitsu into positional sections you will be able to fully commit to the study of the intricacies and nuances of each position for several weeks, before moving on to the next chapter.

I cannot say enough great things about this place! Redline Jiu Jitsu is amazing! The facility is the largest in the Midwest and it is a certified Gracie Center which is the world's best method of self defense with a unbeatable record. The gym is very clean, beautiful and organized with a great play area where the kids can play while the parents can take their lessons.

That last "review" from Eric Benton is complete BS. Redline Jiu-Jitsu is a GREAT place with GREAT people. I live in CA, but when I'm in Oklahoma, I train at Redline. Very friendly, welcoming environment. If I lived there my family and I would be members of Redline. Ty and his instructors are superb. Great for kids and adults of all levels. Go check them out and see for yourself. you won't be disappointed.

I have began training a little over a month at Redline Jiu-Jitsu. Prior to enrolling with Redline I spent a month searching for a place to learn the fundamentals. I did enjoy a few alternative places but when I attended Redline's session I felt confident this was the place I would understand the fundamentals and begin my curriculum. At the other locations I felt as if I was thrown into the fire and trying to pickup something I did not understand. I also didn't remember what I was shown when I left. There are people that are fast learners, however, I am not fortunate to be one of those

These guys are solid. As soon as I walked in the door Carl was there to greet me. He made me feel welcome right away and explained the history of the school as I waited for the GIANT kids class to get done and the open mat to begin. The owner was not there yet he arrived later and this guy is SOOO chill. He is a solid and true black belt. If you are in the area there are a ton of choices but if you want a school that will truly teach you and your little ones how to defend themselves this is it.

If you want to learn high level Jiu-Jitsu from people that treat you like family, train at Redline. The first thing you will notice is how clean the place is! They have created a clean, welcoming environment for anyone and everyone. For the past year and half I’ve been commuting from Norman to train there. I pass by several other schools that are much closer to home (one school is literally in walking distance) just to train with the best people. At any one time you can have a 61 year old drilling the blue belt test or two high level guys preparing for a tournament. When they say anyone can do

Redline sets the tone for professionalism but also playfulness as soon as you step onto the mat.
You can find people from all walks of life there- from MMA fighters to police officers to doctors to musicians to kids to the elderly. It's truly a great place to train. It's just a very clean, welcoming environment. I'd give more stars if I could.

Redline was the place I finally learned some jiu-jitsu. I had been too nervous for years to go to any class. I met one of the instructors, Jennifer, through yoga and decided to finally show up. I'm glad I did. They offer a free trial so you don't have to decide right away. Instructors and fellow students are welcoming and helpful. Their white belt curriculum is fantastic, especially if you're like me and need some structure when you start to learn a new skill. They all teach very well. It's great for any level and age!

The owners at Redline are phenomenal people. From the second you walk in the door, everyone is friendly and encouraging. Ty and Jen have created and fostered an environment that encourages people to try Jiu-Jitsu and really grow in their practice. The instructors at Redline are all incredible and share the same vision. I've never done martial arts and was terrified to start. Most places throw you into the fire your first day. Here, they ease you into things with drills and fundamentals. There is a women's only class and classes for kids on top of the regular BJJ classes.

I have taken classes for female self defense as well as classes for my children. Every class is incredibly impressive. Ty and Jen are wonderful and knowledgeable instructors! They are also so great with kids! So much positive energy with lessons that will help you tremendously with every aspect of your life. We have always had such a positive experience here and everyone is always so nice! And as for the attention to cleaning that someone else mentioned. That is SO IMPORTANT in a gym. As a Mom trying to keep my kids safe from gym germs, I am thrilled that there was so much attention to

This gym is fantastic! The staff is very friendly, helpful, and they make it a point to learn each kid's name and interact with them on a personal level. My son started class at age 6 with no martial arts knowledge or experience. My 9 year old daughter had NO interest in taking class so we would attend my son's class and watch. Within 2 weeks of observing, my daughter was SOLD! She saw how amazing the coaches are and she wanted to learn and participate. She is fairly shy so the fact that she felt comfortable and excited to join the gym speaks highly of Redline and their staff. I

My Son has done the Bully Proof program here and I have also done the "Designing a Safer Woman" Program Self Defense Training. Both classes are excellent and so essential in the world we live in today. The owners are superior people with extraordinary character and charisma. They are amazing teachers who exemplify all of the excellence of this program during the classes and in their professional and personal life. I was also impressed with how much my son learned about self respect, politeness and discipline from this program AND how he implemented it during his everyday life with time management

While traveling through Oklahoma from Texas I visited Redline Jiu-Jitsu, after watching several of their youtube videos I was excited to attend a class. Upon arrival I was quickly greeted and after explaining my situation, I was welcomed and invited to train with them. The facility was large, clean, and fully equipped, the staff was extremely nice, and the level of instruction was beyond many other schools I have attended. It was an overall amazing experience and I hope that my travels brings me back again soon.

My family trains here from my 4 year old sister ,my Dad and myself and my sister.Redline has brought us new levels of fitness and confidence to deal with everything in our lives. Jiujitsu is not just a martial art it is a lifestyle of fitness, self respect and discipline as well as healthy eating habits promoted by the Gracie family diet. The facilities and instruction are first class and its a great environment to foster new friendships in a family friendly school.Classes are expanding form the Jiujitsu curriculum to include yoga ,boxing and other fitness activities...i highly recommend Redline

Tonight I was highly disappointed in the Redline/Gracie Brand. I am a current practitioner of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. My dad had expressed interest in learning more about Gracie Jiu-jitsu and I thought that I would take him to a "Certified" Gracie gym and have him learn from someone who had received their credentials from a Gracie.
We arrived with approximately 20 minutes left in the kids class. We quietly stood in the back and watched the kids finish their training. When the kids class concluded the instructor passed by us several times and didn't even acknowledge us.
