However, you are responsible for getting to and from Camp.  While at camp, we orchestrate transportation as a group.

We choose only the most amazing locations to stay, and we know you will adore our choice this year.  Campers occupy shared spaces together for the entire weekend.  Unless you have reserved your own room or own bed, you should plan to share a room, and in most instances a bed with another camper.  Roommate requests are available at checkout, and you can always message us to make a request.  Many of our campers make friends with each other while in our group chat prior, and end up have a person they click with! 


Please know, our houses are very large and there is always quiet space and time for you if you so choose.  We accommodate the most introvert among us to your radical extrovert.  This is your vacation, so we strongly encourage you to participate in as much or as little as you like.

My first grappling getaway, I felt like I was at a weekend away with my best girlfriends! The attention to detail that April & Katie put into this event was just astounding! Fun activities, planned outings, and stellar jui jitsu instruction, all set in an absolutely perfectly chosen getaway house, we had everything we needed and plenty of space to spread out. I can’t speak more highly of this entire experience- these ladies put on a top notch weekend I can’t wait to come back again!!!! LOVED THIS ADVENTURE ❤️❤️

This was my third trip with Grappling Getaways and they never fail to impress me. It was awesome to get together with like minded women to train, play, laugh and bond with. April and Katie provide excellent training as well as bringing in additional high end BBJ trainers. They are super creative with their themed getaways and attentive to people's needs. Grappling Getaways are never the same thing twice but always a fantastic vacation.

Thank you so much! This trip exceeded my expectations! I was in awe the entire time :) A great group of strong women coming together for their love of grappling, Harry Potter, and all things spooky! Everything was planned out so perfectly and I honestly keep looking back at pictures and telling all my female grappling friends that they have to book their trips for the next one now! :) THANK YOU INFINITELY FROM MY HEART! :)

This grappling getaway was a magical blend of top-notch Jiu Jitsu instruction and Harry Potter-themed activities. April and Katie were fantastic hosts, making everyone feel welcome with excellent teaching, training, and fun team-building activities like a scavenger hunt in Salem. The event fostered a supportive community of women in Jiu Jitsu from various backgrounds, and I made lasting friendships. I can't wait for future events! Highly recommended for a fun and memorable experience!

This was my first getaway and it won’t be my last. This trip, these people and this experience was something my soul needed. I made lifelong friends, learned some killer techniques while vacationing in paradise. I got solid life advice for things I’m struggling w in my own business. Seeing such strong, powerful women be so down to earth and welcoming and loving just makes feel so grateful I made the trip….. next trip will be Mexico. See you soon Coaches!!!!

Highly recommend!! I've attended 3 amazing Grappling Getaway camps so far (and plan on attending many more) and each time is unique and awesome! April and Katie are exceptional women who truly love what they do! I appreciate so much the time and effort they take to connect with female struggles both on and off the mats, makes these camps unmatchable. Their attention to every detail, coupled with their incredible ability to just go with the flow, makes being in their presence an authentic jiu jitsu experience. They create such a welcoming, fun, and empowering experience, where friendships are seeded and your jiu jitsu grows! If you're wanting to feel empowered by strong women with great attitudes and open minds, you should DEFINITELY get to a Grappling Getaway ASAP!

April, and the other instructors with Grappling Getaways are THE BEST. Top notch human beings who are amazing at jiu jitsu and amazing at teaching. I’ve been to 3 Grappling Getaways events, and each has been so much fun, so inviting, encouraging, and appropriately challenging for what was advertised. I’ve met so many incredible female leaders and role models through Grappling Getaways. HIGHLY recommended :)
