Best decision I’ve ever made! Joining this BJJ gym has been an absolute game changer for me. From the very first day, I felt welcomed, supported, and inspired. The coaches are world-class — incredibly skilled, patient, and genuinely passionate about teaching. They push you to be your best while making sure you’re learning in a safe, respectful environment. The energy here is unreal — everyone is friendly, motivated, and there’s a strong sense of community. It’s more than just a gym, it feels like a second home. The cleanliness and organization of the facility are top-notch too — they really care about every detail. I look forward to every training session. I leave completely exhausted but smiling ear to ear. If you’re even slightly considering trying Jiu-Jitsu, this is the place to do it. I seriously can’t recommend it enough!
I’ve been training Jiu Jitsu for almost a decade and have been to various schools. Coming from a more self defense, traditional style of Jiu Jitsu and transitioning to this gym has been great. As a female I can’t say enough good things about the women here at this gym and one of the reasons I joined. Master Leo’s wife, Gle is an absolute sweetheart. Getting to train with female world and national champions like Barbara Pires, Pati Fontes and Mayara Custodio to say the least. We women have a nice spacious locker room. Everyone has been so nice. It’s a honor to be part of the team. Had great coaching by professor Gabriel and Jamie. Master Leo is such a humble yet legendary person in Jiu Jitsu. So happy i joined this academy.
Best Jiu-Jitsu place for my son and I. Every kids class they have 5 coaches (3 black belts and 2 colored belts) taking care of the class. No other school we’ve been before has it!!! They have always been super supportive and helpful, playing and teaching the kids. Safe and trustful environment where I bring my son and I also train here. Adult class also with 3 black belts (1 of them only for beginners). You can’t find a better place to learn Jiu Jitsu!
Absolutely love this place! I’ve been training here for a while now, and I couldn’t be happier. The instructors are not only super knowledgeable but also incredibly welcoming and supportive. The whole team makes you feel like part of a family from day one. The facility is always clean, the mats are well maintained, and the atmosphere is just awesome — positive, respectful, and motivating. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, this is a great place to train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Highly recommend!
