What people are saying.

  • “High Level Jiu Jitsu is the best kept secret in Amsterdam. The instruction is by far the best that I’ve seen. The environment is welcoming no matter your ability level. I recommend going to anyone interested in learning self-defense or “The Gentle Art” of Jiu Jitsu. There’s classes 7 days a week too..”

  • “High Level offers a safe, friendly, challenging but comfortable environment for anyone at any level of jiu jitsu. As a female, it is particularly difficult to come to a new BJJ gym, and I have felt nothing but welcome and looked after since I walked through the doors. Jiu jitsu has changed my life in so many ways, helping me gain confidence, mental strength, self defense skills, friendships, and always a great workout. James and Matt offer a level of instruction and knowledge that exceeds what I have seen at other gyms and they are always growing within their own knowledge and experiences and it shows. They truly want their students to improve and learn on and off the mats. It’s my happy place!”

  • "I've been training here for almost 3 years. It's changed my life in so many positive ways physically and mentally. I've lost ~70 pounds in that time and become much more confident. The black belt instructors James and Matt are a wealth of knowledge. The beginner's classes are focused on the basics of jiu-jitsu and provide an excellent framework for self defense. The advanced classes are excellent for those that find an interest in the sportive side of the art of jiu jitsu. Highly recommend to anyone even slightly interested".
