I've trained at Mat Chess and a bunch of folks from Definitive before they became Definitive when I lived in Seattle for 5 years. From what I remember, Mat Chess takes a more traditional approach to the game (heavy, top pressure game). Austin from Definitive takes a more modern approach. Mat Chess is super big on local tournaments, particularly the Revolution. Definitive will have people go with you to ADCC Opens/Trials, Combat JJ, etc. source, 2025 ↗

Martial arts are always pretty fun. "Unique" is hard to quantify, but however pop culture makes it seem they're still a pretty damn rare hobby. Places I've enjoyed when in the city or heard good things about in the city include: 1) Ten Kicks Gym (Haller Lake area) 2) Muay Thai Iyarin (North Queen Anne) 3) NWJJA (Aurora) 4) Definitive Jiu-jitsu (Greenwood) 5) Rain City Sumo (usually either at Dahl Field in the Wedgewood area or in the Central District) 6) The Budokan (or the Seattle Dojo) for Judo 7) Mat Chess MMA 8) Marcelo Alonso Jiu-jitsu I'm not super knowledgeable about the more trad source, 2024 ↗
