Transform yourself with Bang Muay Thai

Bang Muay Thai’s comprehensive system incorporates all eight striking weapons (fists, feet, knees, and elbows) to develop total-body awareness. This authentic training builds not just striking skills, but also cardiovascular endurance, functional strength, and mental resilience applicable to daily life.
Real stories from our 10th Planet Portland family
Meet the heart of 10th Planet Portland: from working professionals to dedicated parents, our jiu jitsu family shares stories of transformation, friendship, and growth.
I’ve been living in Portland for 20 years and if we ever move this would be the thing we would miss the most.
My kids have grown in so many ways by being a part of this gym and the life lessons and skills they learn on and off the mat here will forever be a part of them. The kids program is hands down the best in the city. We have been a part of two other gyms before and there is no comparison to community, care and students here at 10th planet jiu jitsu.

This place has changed my life for the better. 10/10 coaches, well kept facilities and more classes than any other BJJ gym i’ve found. Strong community consisting of tough competitors, casual hobbyists and everything in between. Can’t recommend enough. I’m there every day i can be.
– Oliver. N
An incredible experience! 10P has an extremely high level of jiu jitsu coaching while also providing a friendly and welcoming environment for beginners. I started Jiu Jitsu in my 40’s, so I was a little nervous about stepping in here. From day 1, I was mentored by instructors and staff who were committed to helping me develop as an athlete. My fellow classmates modeled the ethos of becoming better together through training. Being part of the community at 10p Portland has been one of the most positive experiences of my life. If you are thinking about training here, just do it. Highly recommended.

After only a few short lessons I saw an amazing boost in confidence and kindness from my two girls age 6 and 8 from their kids program.
The gym is full of incredibly talented and nice people. They worked amazingly smoothly making us feel at home and just went ahead and adjusted classes to accommodate my daughters who have no experience. Truly couldn’t recommend these guys and gals highly enough.

I highly recommend 10th Planet Portland to anyone interested in jiu jitsu. Whether you are interested in jiu jitsu for fitness, self defense, or sport, this gym has something to offer you. A well thought out curriculum allows students to advance at their own pace. All of the instructors make a point to connect with each and every student on a personal level. A clear attention to detail can be seen throughout the gym whether it be the information taught in class or how clean the gym is kept. Most importantly, and unsurprisingly, the gym has a supportive community that brings out the best in everyone.

Love this gym. I’ve trained at several gyms and this has the best community, coaching, and facility. It’s super clean, plenty of mat space, and always a great time.
– Jude
This was one of the best drop-in experiences I’ve had yet. At least 6+ individuals came across the mat to introduce themselves and welcome me.
As an older bjj roller, the younger guys that were clearly more talented than me paced down to where I was at and were super respectful. You guys are a class act, keep it up! Jimmy, good luck on your competition this weekend!
– Dan. M
Did a drop-in since I was visiting from out of town. Great instruction, clean facility, but most importantly the awesome training partners. Everyone was super nice and enjoyable to roll with. I learned a ton. This gym really exceeded my expectations. I plan to visit again on my next trip to Portland.

My daughter has had an incredible experience at the 10th Planet Portland kids BJJ class. The instructors are knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about sharing their love for the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.The classes provide a perfect balance of technique, drilling, and live rolling, ensuring that students develop a strong foundation in this complex martial art. Not only has my daughter’s BJJ skills improved, but her overall confidence and discipline have grown as well. If you’re looking for an engaging and supportive environment for your child to learn BJJ, I highly recommend 10th Planet Portland.

From setback to success
As a second-degree black belt under Eddie Bravo, I’ve devoted the past decade to cultivating something extraordinary in Portland’s martial arts landscape. When our original training facility closed unexpectedly in 2013, my training partner Nathan Orchard and I saw not an ending, but a beginning.
That initial vision has blossomed into Portland’s premier jiu jitsu academy – a place where our community doesn’t just train together, but grows together, constantly elevating each other’s potential both on and off the mats.
Throughout our evolution, we’ve remained steadfast in our founding commitment: creating an environment where every practitioner can advance in their jiu-jitsu journey, regardless of their starting point or background.
