Traveled to Forged Fitness from out of town 2 times and my experience has been great each time. Billy is not only skilled but extremely welcoming. Traveling to a gym out of town the members can feel like they have something to prove by beating you. This was not the thought at Forged Fitness. the members were friendly and rolled with respect. If you do not have an ego and want to train with a group of great people I would highly recommend trying out Forged Fitness.

The BJJ class was super fun, easy going, and no ego. The people at the gym were very nice and highly welcomed visitors. Billy has been running a BJJ school for many many years and has developed an amazing ability to teach people. On top of top notch instruction and a long history with Royce Gracie (under whom he received his black belt), Billy is a really cool guy. I rolled with a few browns, high-level purple, and blues at this gym. If you're looking for a super competition-focused team you may maybe this isn't the gym for you, otherwise I believe this gym could cater for all levels and all types of BJJ (sport/traditional) and is a great way to improve your BJJ and have fun at the same time!

Best BJJ in the Triangle. The classes are great for both kids and adults. I would highly recommend Forged Fitness to anyone.

Top notch facility and programs!!! I started training Jiu-Jitsu under Jason and Billy back in 2002. I moved and have been out in CO for years now but still try to make it back a few times a year to train with these guys. If you live within driving distance of one of their locations you’re lucky! They have a great facility and amazing instructors for all their programs. I’ve trained all over the country and can say with confidence that it’s hard to find better Jiu-Jitsu instruction anywhere! Along with world class instruction you’ll find a great welcoming vibe in the gym. I highly recommend checking them out, you won’t regret it!

This is an awesome gym. I have felt like I have joined a family. Everyone has been genuinely friendly and inclusive. I do CrossFit and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Billy Dowey, the incredible BJJ head-coach is an elite, highly-technical Royce Gracie Black Belt and is as friendly and nice as he is skilled, which is important and hard to find. Not sure about that other reviewer's comment about CrossFit, but it keeps me in good shape and is truly a tough, sweaty workout, though they will teach you to modify safely in the introductory classes. I love it!!
