About Us
Welcome to the Royce Gracie Academy of Randallstown, a martial arts academy founded in 2017 by Dr. Lamonte Tyler. Our mission is simple yet profound: to enrich the lives of our students through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training. Dr. Lamonte Tyler, a combat veteran and a seasoned martial artist, was inspired to create a space where the infinite benefits of this “gentle art” could improve mental, physical, and all-around health.
When Dr. Tyler embarked on building the academy, he envisioned more than just a training center—he envisioned a transformative journey. Our mission is deeply ingrained in every aspect of our academy. We believe in the power of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to go beyond self-defense techniques. It’s a path to self-discovery, personal growth, and an overall enhanced well-being.

Our focus is on providing a supportive community where individuals of all ages and backgrounds can thrive. Whether you’re a beginner seeking self-defense skills or an experienced practitioner looking for a place to refine your techniques, our mission is to guide you on your martial arts journey.
As you step onto the mats, you become a part of a community dedicated to excellence, safety, and personal development. Join us at Royce Gracie Academy of Randallstown, where Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu becomes more than a skill—it becomes a transformative and enriching way of life.
