Jiu-jitsu has given our kids the confidence and skill set to take on all kinds of challenges in life. After moving here from another country, we wanted something that would help them feel grounded, capable, and connected. Enrolling them in jiu-jitsu was one of the best decisions we made—and switching to Soul Fighters Leander was the second best. The environment here is incredibly welcoming. The training partners are friendly, supportive, and high-level, making every class something our kids genuinely look forward to. Their progress—both on and off the mats—has been amazing to watch. What truly sets Soul Fighters apart is the excellence of the coaching. Bruno is absolutely world-class in his teaching. He has been a black belt longer than many people have even been training jiu-jitsu, and his experience shows in every detail he teaches. On top of that, there is a black belt on the mat in every single class—often multiple black belts—which
The top competition-driven jiu-jitsu academy in North Austin — especially for families who love to train and compete. Our whole family trains here, and the competitive culture is on another level. This isn’t just a place to learn jiu-jitsu — it’s a place to win. The training structure, the drilling intensity, and the strategy taught here have pushed all of us forward, especially our son. Under Professor Bruno, the technique is razor-sharp and competition-tested. His ability to break down strategy, pace, and mat awareness has taken our son’s game to new heights. The proof? He took 2nd place at Pans No-Gi, one of the toughest tournaments out there — and that’s directly because of the coaching and preparation he gets here. The rest of the coaching staff is phenomenal too — supportive, motivating, and seriously invested in helping students perform at their best. Whether it’s kids or adults, beginners or seasoned competitors, everyone here i
My daughter has been attending jiu jitsu classes here for the last few months and loves it. Professor Bruno is very good at being patient when teaching the small kids, but still being firm when they need to listen and pay attention. The class never feels unorganized or unsafe. The kids always look like they are having a blast during class. Coach T and Coach Brady are excellent with the kids as well, especially when it comes to giving them individual attention when the kids need more help. My daughter has learned so much in a short amount of time and it is thanks to Professor Bruno and the other coaches’ hard work and patience every day with them!
Soul Fighters is a family-oriented place that is very very welcoming for all ages and levels. Regardless of age or skill level, you will always receive 100% attention from the professors and coaches. If your goal is to compete Soul Fighters also offers classes and skills that will prepare you. If your kiddos are just getting into Jiu Jitsu I highly recommend Soul Fighters, Professor Bruno and Coaches are so amazing with the kids! It's rare to find business owners who sacrifice their own time to support their clients, but this gym does exactly that. If you're competing, you can be assured that you'll always have someone by your side coaching you. For example, Professor Bruno drove to Dallas to support and coach in a tournament and then immediately traveled to Houston to coach his students at another event on Fathers Day. The dedication and knowledge at this gym are truly remarkable!
I've been training jiu jitsu at Bruno Guimaraes BJJ academy for the past few months and it has been an amazing experience. I felt at home from day 1 because everyone on the mats is so welcoming and always willing to help out with anything you need. The academy has a great, family-oriented culture while also being deeply rooted in competition. It is a place where you can train according to your goals, whether it be training for competition or just recreationally. Professor Bruno has done an amazing job with the gym and I highly recommend anyone in the area to pop in for a class!
Bruno is Amazing! My two sons along with now myself are training under him. I can not say enough good about Bruno and his program. His kids program is Top Notch. We have a wonderful group of kids that work very hard, struggle together, make each other better and through all that have become good friends and along with us parents it's all one big family. Bruno has a wonderful gift with how he teaches our kiddos and well us adults too. He does a great job of building everyone up. There is no b.s. fluff here. Just effective, fundamental based training that has produced great results on many levels recreationally and in competition. Do yourself a favor. Do your family a favor and get your butt over to Bruno Guimareas BJJ. No better place to learn and train for all ages.
