I took a seminar with Placido and everything about it was great. He is a great teacher that explains things very well and takes the time to make sure you understand. He was very helpful with any and all questions. I would train with him in a heartbeat.

I had the privilege of learning under owner and head instructor Placido Santos. If I was anywhere within a 2 hour drive of 5 stones that is where I would be training, no question. It is undisputedly the best jiu jitsu you will find in the area. Placido has trained under and alongside the greatest of all time and is using his experience to pour back into his community with his knowledge. 10/10 recommend!

I recently started training at 5 Stones Jiu Jitsu in the beginning of October and could not be happier with my experience. Coach Placido is an great instructor who is not only highly skilled in Jiu Jitsu but also incredibly patient and dedicated to helping his students improve. His attention to detail and focus on technique have helped me progress quickly in my training. For most gyms it may be tough to get detailed feedback from your coach but Coach Placido makes himself available to each of his students. The atmosphere at the gym is welcoming and the other students are supportive and encouraging which was a key factor to joining this gym. Everyone wants each other to succeed. I would highly recommend 5 Stones Jiu Jitsu to anyone looking to learn Jiu Jitsu from a talented and knowledgeable instructor.

New England Jiu Jitsu has just leveled up… I have been a student and training partner of Placido Santos for roughly 5 years now - his teaching is some of the best I have ever experienced. His ability to break down complex concepts into digestible bits is second to none. Placido has spent his own time and money on learning from industry leaders in Jiu Jitsu such as John Danaher, Gordon Ryan and Garry Tonon - this surely manifests itself in his teachings. He has fostered a welcoming environment at 5 Stones Jiu Jitsu that is conducive to any gym goer looking to improve their skill set. Whether you are an active competitor, hobbyist or simply looking to get in shape - Do yourself a favor and train at 5 Stones.
