Whatever you need help with, we are here to help! We are open to any questions you have and options you want to explore to make informed decisions. All our lesson plans are explained and demoed, observed, and then we help student address common issues student may have.

Our History
Nomad Grappling Club was created to build a safe place for family-oriented Jiu-Jitsu in McAllen. With our Summer 2026 opening, we created a home where families and competitors can feel comfortable training. Led by founders Patrick Chancey and Erick Gomez, the duo brings a welcoming, supportive energy to every class. Each has trained for more than a decade, earned their black belt, and competed at high levels. They bring years of experience to the mats while staying vulnerable and open-minded for their students. As they continue to grow our community, they are striving to serve as mentors for children while building tomorrow’s champions today!

Are you looking to get started in Jiu-Jitsu in McAllen? If so, make sure to read about our Adult and Youth Gi and No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu programs! Each provides age-appropriate training and allows you to attend any class. Read below to learn more!
Youth Gi & No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu
Our Youth Jiu-Jitsu training is real learning through playing. As children begin developing their skills, they gain confidence, coordination, and movement skills. This comes through high engagement with instructors who don’t bark orders but guide them through their journey. We have Levels 1 and 2 for different skill sets!
Adult Gi & No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu
Our Jiu-Jitsu classes teach skill development through pressure and experimentation. We work to find your game while helping with long-term athletic stability from positional live games and stand-up engagement. All of this occurs in our adult classes where students can have fun while working hard!
