Rocha Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is an amazing school with world class instructors. After spending time searching and researching a few schools, we came across this one. My daughter started BJJ here a year and a half ago and since then her confidence, athleticism and problem solving abilities have greatly improved. Her instructors put time and energy into each student giving them the confidence and skill they need to compete at any level.Due to the atmosphere and team spirit, my older daughters and I started training here as well. They offer top notch kids, adult beginners, adults advanced, kickboxing and women’s classes. As a woman and mother it can be intimidating to start something new but the women’s class on Sunday will make you feel comfortable and confident and is a judgment free zone. Overall this school isn’t just a training facility, it’s a family environment!

I've been training with Eduardo and Vernie for almost 8 years now. They are both very technical with different strengths. The different personalities, perspectives, body types, and experiences of the instructors here result in a well rounded curriculum and help students develop a great ground game. I highly recommend Rocha Jiu Jitsu to anyone interested in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and looking for a great work out.

Eduardo has a huge knowledge in Brazilian jiu jitsu and he teaches each techniques with an amazing precision and details. If you want to develop a solid game with a strong technical base, this is the spot!

Eduardo is one of the best jiu-jitsu instructors in the United States. His academy is well-run, clean and most of all, the jiu-jitsu you learn is world-class. He will help to resolve all the components of your game that need work.The academy is appropriate for children and beginners all the way to aspiring world champions. Everyone can learn here.

This is a great academy with top level instruction. I started training here about six months ago as a blue belt with some gaps in my game and feeling plateaued. I really felt myself improve once I started training here. What I enjoy most is the very technical instruction. Eduardo has learned from and trained with the best. He has cultivated a training environment that is very welcoming, and the rest of the students are very respectful and great to work with, offering sound advice and technique help when needed. Rolling with one of Eduardo's brown or black belt students is a humbling experience and a testament to the quality of instruction. I tried several BJJ gyms in the bay area and am glad to have ended up here.
