When I first called, I already felt welcome and when I came in with my son and daughter, man did that feeling materialized. Everybody that I met and rolled with shared the same level of love and respect for JiuJitsu as we do so I HIGHLY recomand this establishment to anyone, beginners or advanced! OSS

If you're looking for an amazing gym with incredible instructors and wonderful training partners- this is the gym you're looking for. You never have to worry about aggressive training partners. Everyone is really welcoming. The culture is inviting and fun. I've trained at a few different gyms through, while traveling, and I've never run into a place that gives off the same vibes as this place. They've really worked to create a place where everyone feels like they belong even when it's your first time walking through their door.

Moved to Miami last August and wanted to find a school that would give me similar training to where I trained in NY. After visiting a few schools this school blew me away. Really made me feel like home

Visiting a friend in town for just a couple of days. We decided to drop in for an open mat, and I'm glad we did! My friend will be a member soon, and I'll drop every time I visit. Friendly and helpful people, great rolls, and a good time all around. Check it out!

This place is the best BJJ gym I’ve come across. The vibe at the school is an incredible, supportive one. The professors are all excellent teachers. The 6am class is an amazing option for working professionals. This gym has become family. Highly recommend for any BJJ practitioner!

If you ever want to try BJJ, this is the place. My wife and I decided for our son to do Jiu Jitsu, and after seeing him do so well in a month, my wife and I decided to join, and it has been a year since we started, and not only are we so thankful for our achievements and improvements.I highly recommend this academy because of the level of respect and appreciation for all the members that train here; everyone is so welcoming and happy to see you succeed.We are grateful to Juan Rodriguez for being our professor and friend and treating us as family.
