World-class jiu-jitsu in a room where everyone belongs — beginners, kids, and lifers all on the same mat.
The space is beautiful, clean, and inviting. Professor Marco is a truly great individual — and it shows in the whole room. If you've ever been curious about jiu-jitsu, this is the place.

Providence BJJ was founded to make jiu-jitsu genuinely welcoming — for people of color, women, the LGBTQ community, and anyone who's ever felt a gym wasn't for them. Everyone starts a beginner; everyone belongs here.
Professor Marco is a black belt under Tim Burrill with 20+ years on the mat — a coach and writer who built Providence BJJ around a simple idea: world-class jiu-jitsu should be open to everyone. Alongside partners Mickey Zacchilli and Nicholas Reville, he's made this one of the most welcoming rooms in the city.
