Amazing place with an amazing professor! The people here are friendly and welcoming, as well. We have established great friendships with most of the families and individuals here and are blessed to have found such a supportive atmosphere.

Having started my BJJ training late in life, I'm truly blessed to be surrounded by such fine people. Having grandkids, it's great seeing the kids blossom into fine, confident humans. Thanks, Professor Mauricio, and the upper classes for a great training experience. I'm learning a lot and have never been so fit.

Been taking my son for a couple months and have been impressed by Professor Mauricio’s passion and knowledge of Jiu Jitsu. Decided to start training as well about a month ago and have had a great time. Great workout and lots of fun! Great environment and great people all around. I have no previous experience and everyone has been very helpful...

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art focusing on grappling and ground fighting, enabling a smaller person to defend against a larger one through technique and leverage and also serves as a form of physical and mental discipline, promoting principles such as respect, perseverance, and discipline, making it not only a method of self-defense but also a way to improve one’s health, fitness, and character.
No, you do not need to be in peak physical condition to start BJJ. People of all ages and fitness levels are welcome. BJJ training will gradually improve your fitness, flexibility, and strength over time.
