10th Planet Seattle

Fantastic experience: its not often that the master teaches fundamentals but In this instance.. he does! Nate is above and beyond an awesome coach and teacher. His lessons extend beyond the sport itself and teaches you lessons in life. whether your getting into MMA or defending yourself on the streets.. theres no better place to go.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication

Fantastic experience: Nathan Orchard is a killer coach with a savage team. Don't step on the mats without a full tank of gas

Fantastic experience: A fantastic place for learning no-gi BJJ

Fantastic experience: Nate Orchard was extremely hospitable and it was a great pleasure to get to know and grapple with the other guys in the class.

Fantastic experience: ! This is a fantastic spot for both beginners and experienced individuals. Nathan Orchard is, as expected, an exceptional teacher. However, if you are just starting out, you are likely to take the fundamentals class which Nathan does not teach. Instead, Adrian, Casey, Donnaven, and Chaz usually lead the class. They are all fantastic instructors who will give you as much attention as you give to the class. They have a wealth of knowledge to share and the benefit of a smaller fundamentals class is that you get a more personalized experience with a particular move. All in all, an incredible place to learn!

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience training at this location. Nate, the main instructor, is highly knowledgeable and very patient. I was just passing through the area, but I plan to come back soon!

Fantastic experience: Nate is an amazing martial arts instructor who has created a great environment in his academy. Everyone there is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and it's clear that Nate is passionate about what he does.

Fantastic experience: Nate is a contemporary samurai who is the only one to practice in Seattle.

Fantastic experience: OMG it is freakin crazy to train here! You get the seminar quality class everyday and it is so worth the price. Just with the moves that I learned from first week got me a win in my first nogi tournament. Coming as a feather weight girl, it is pretty friendly environment and guys are not tryna hurt u with their ego lol. Also let me point this out ladies, it was hard for me to make a change to come to Tenth Planet Seattle since I started jujitsu at Gi focused gym where I started my jujitsu journey and developed my jujitsu friends. But I knew deep down in my heart that everyday practice is not really helping me to get better, instead I found myself chatting with my drilling partner. I didn't feel like I was being challenged in any way. If it was my goal to develop a jujitsu community that is supportive and would tell me that I am better than other people even though I am not, then I would have stayed at the gym I was in. BUT, I wanted to be better and get to higher level. Even though it was hard for me to adjust to nogi at first, it came just like a snap and now I love NOGI so much. Jujitsu is jujitsu and nogi will only make your gi game better if gi would be your focus. SO, you should really check out Tenth Planet Seattle! I am there pretty much everyday for night class and I would love to see more of you ladies<3

Fantastic experience: I visited 10th planet Seattle Yesterday as it was open mat , the first thing that caught my attention was the abundance of parking ( something rare in Seattle) , Nathan was a great host , despite not rolling he was hospitable and just great at making you feel welcome , the gym is reasonably sized and the students are respectful when rolling I definitely had a great time . 10th planet is definitely the place to train in Seattle if you are interested in the No-Gi game.

Fantastic experience: Have had a great experience here would recommend to anyone new to jiu jitsu. Nathan Orchard is a great instructor & the environment is very positive.

Fantastic experience: Nathan Orchard is the real deal. The meticulously taught techniques he shares with his students have been successfully implemented by him at the highest of competitive levels. He's an old master masquerading as a wild haired hippy soul.

Fantastic experience: An amazing and welcoming group. Nathan Orchard is an amazing teacher. Always a fun time there.
