Rogue Combat Club is Asheville's premier martial arts and self-defense facility, teaching Brazilian jiu-jitsu and Muay Thai to adults, plus kids martial arts classes. Established in 2013, we're proud to be one of Asheville's longest-running MMA and jiu-jitsu gyms — led by experienced MMA fighters and wrestlers who've turned a single mat room into a Tribe.
We're a 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu affiliate; owner Johnny Buck is a 10th Planet Black Belt under Brandon McCaghren. Our coaching staff has competed and coached under the banners of IBJJF, WKA, NACWA, Bellator, and XFC, and holds NASM personal training certification — real competitive credentials, taught with patience to first-timers and veterans alike.
Beyond BJJ and Muay Thai, our coaches also bring experience in MMA, kickboxing, boxing, cardio kickboxing, and personal training to the floor — ask a coach how to fold any of these into your training.
