I was part of this so called “family” for almost 3 years and the one time I decided to go on a team outing and ride with my professor, I get kicked out. His wife deemed it “inappropriate” and left me no chance to explain or apologize. Anyone that knows me knows why I used Jiu jitsu and understands why I felt comfortable enough to ride with my professor. There were no hidden intentions behind my actions the way she claimed. I confided in my professor as any other student would and explained my history of trauma, which is why I don’t understand why he would allow all of this to happen. If you’re a female seeking out to train in this gym, be careful. The first moment his wife feels you’re “threatening” her relationship or you want her husband the way she told me, she’ll kick you out without hesitation. It was extremely rude and unprofessional for her to take such actions and not know how to keep her personal issues aside from the business.It was also very unprofessional of him to message me stating he was divorcing her due to this incident. Again, they need to keep their personal issues aside.

You will not get a better value for your martial arts experience then at Gracie Humaita Hemet. With the explosion of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu around the world there are lot of gyms one could train at. But being a student under Omar Salum (who has been training 25+ years under Royler Gracie), you can see the lineage, the tradition, and the respect of working with a high level practitioner and professional. There is a culture of family, hard work, and legacy that is well beyond the price you pay for admission. If you’re willing to humble yourself and be a learner, you will soon see success in your own skills. With the guidance of professor Omar and his wife Karoline, you get a sense of being apart of something bigger than yourself. My whole family has joined the team and we couldn’t be happier!
