Alliance Jiu Jitsu Laguna Hills - Brazilian Jiu Jitsu,

“In my 25+ years of martial arts, this is one of the best places I've been part of. Professor Laércio and coach Anthony are true leaders. They lead with kindness and by example. The vibe in the gym is great. In Jiujitsu, you won't be spending time doing jumping jacks and running around for no reason. It is hand-on training and lots of repetition. On your first week, you will be doing the same moves together with black belts, at your own level of course. People are very skilled or in a competitor level, so the bar is high. I highly recommend this place.”

“Incredibly welcoming student body and incredibly talented instructors, Professor Laercio Fernandes and Professor Anthony Frank are some of the best mentors I have ever had in over 10 years of training. If you're looking for the best Jiu-Jitsu / Grappling academy for yourself or your kiddos in the SoCal / Orange County area, look no further!”

“If you're looking for a family-oriented gym run by extremely knowledgeable and humble coaches, this is the place! Our family of 5 has been attending for about 4 months and we have seen improvements in not only our health, fitness, and confidence, but we have also made incredible friends in the process. I recommend booking a trial class to check it out for yourself!”

“Alliance Jiu-Jitsu in Laguna Hills is hands down one of the best academies out there. From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed into a supportive, high-level training environment that fosters both skill development and personal growth. The gym is clean, well-organized, and filled with a great mix of students—whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned competitor, this is the place to be. What truly sets this academy apart, though, is Professor Laercio. His level of expertise and dedication to the art of Jiu-Jitsu is truly inspiring. He has an incredible ability to break down techniques in a way that’s easy to understand, yet highly effective in both self-defense and competition settings. His passion for teaching is evident in every class—he genuinely cares about his students and pushes everyone to reach their full potential. Beyond his technical skills, Professor Laercio creates a culture of respect, discipline, and camaraderie. He makes every class challenging yet enjoyable, always ensuring that his students improve while maintaining a positive and welcoming atmosphere. His attention to detail and ability to refine even the smallest aspect of your game is what makes training under him such an amazing experience. If you're looking for a top-tier Jiu-Jitsu academy with world-class instruction, Alliance Jiu-Jitsu Laguna Hills is the place to go. Highly recommend training here—you won’t find a better professor or a more supportive team anywhere else!”
