It is now Richardson Jiu Jitsu in Prattville, AL. This is a top-tier gym! The coaches provide amazing instruction; they take time to show proper technique in addition to providing individual attention to keep your skill increasing. They provide a learning environment that is best for all levels of experience, whether it's your first day or 10th year of training. Also, the people in the gym are awesome and extremely friendly!

My 15 year old son and I started training here in August, 2021 and have loved every minute of it. The gym has a great atmosphere and the instruction is top notch. The amount of training opportunities and mat time is more than worth the price. The people are awesome and Rob is running a fantastic gym. This is the best place to train in the area for anyone starting or continuing their jiu jitsu journey. I'm bummed we have to leave the area, but will definitely be back!

Started my Jiu Jitsu journey here, and fell in love. The training atmosphere is top notch, and everyone strives to make each other better. I recommend for anyone in the area wanting to learn BJJ at the best school in the river region area! #RJJ4lyfe

I'm from out-of-state and travel here sometimes, so I reached out to Professor Richardson a few times and asked if I could join his class (as a white and blue belt). He's always been very welcoming and his classes are awesome. Just as importantly - all his other coaches and students are welcoming too - contentious training partners. In my mind, that speaks volumes to the culture he's built in his gym. Also, got my 20-something nephew to sign up up for BJJ and he's been training here for a while now and loves it. I strongly recommend bringing ample water (or a sports drink)!

Rob and the guys at THB are great! Clean gym, good people, great instruction. Came on Saturday for open mat at 10a-11a. Gym is Gi only (which) I liked. Definitely will be back!! If you’re in Prattville this is THE BJJ gym.

Quality BJJ, Killer black belts, a great team of practitioners, and chokes for everyone. Really do you need anymore convincing to train here?

Rob is top notch! If you want to learn BJJ the Hot Box is the best place to go.

I have been working and training at The Hot Box JiuJitsu for the past 6 years. Getting the opportunity to train and coach in such an amazing environment has been immeasurably important to my personal growth. If you are prior service or active duty, you would be hard pressed to find another gym that fosters the brotherhood and team environment you find in the military or similar occupations. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or an advanced grappler...this gym fits the bill.
