Bruno Lima Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

“As a parent of a child in Professor Bruno Lima's Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class, I'm highly impressed. Professor Bruno's lifelong dedication to the sport, which started at age 15 in 1998, is truly inspiring. His teaching commitment is remarkable. He began as an assistant and later taught underprivileged kids in Rio De Janeiro, showcasing not just expertise but a heart for the community. As a parent, it's reassuring to have such a caring instructor. Professor Bruno's competitive achievements, like being a Brazilian National Champion and Pan American Medalist, make him an inspiring figure for our kids. With dual master's degrees in Biomechanics and Physiology, his coaching blends technical expertise and scientific knowledge, enhancing our children's learning. At the Bruno Lima Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy in Chico, Professor Bruno provides an authentic experience while instilling discipline and respect in our kids. We're grateful for the opportunity for our child to learn and grow under his guidance.”

“Bruno is the man! Do not let his size fool you. I was in town for a work trip and decided to join a friend for the first time. Yes. First time doing any sort of Jiu Jitsu. I sat through the youth session and joined the adult session. Bruno took the time to share some warm ups and allowed me to join in with his team. One of his students, (Josh) was extremely helpful with working with this noob. Throughout the whole training session, Bruno keeps it straightforward no sugar coating. If he sees you're slacking off, he will call you out on it. If he can add value to your technique, he will add his input! At the end of the session, he was giving a motivational speech that felt personal for me. Accountability. Simple as that. You cannot get past beginner stage if you're not willing to sacrifice unhealthy food, alcohol and bad habits. Thank you again Bruno and team for the open and friendly environment.”

“I was disrespected and what felt like targeted for already being a skilled martial artist. Once notifying Bruno I was mocked and then excluded from certain training sessions. I have been to multiple MMA gyms and have never entered a room filled with so much ego. If you are already a skilled fighter or jiu jitsu practitioner I’d recommend any other gym in the area.”

“Bruno, Sunny, Julien and all the team at Bruno Lima's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu are passionate, knowledgeable, kind, and sincere. They are helping to instill positive qualities such as discipline, confidence, physical fitness, in my son, all while teaching him an amazingly effective martial art. Five stars!”

“This is an absolutely amazing place to train. Starting out at over 40 y/o, I found the experienced students to be very friendly and supportive, great group of mellow and capable people. Professor Bruno was quick to reply to my questions about the enrollment process. If your interested in trying the place out, show up in gym clothes 10 minutes before a scheduled class and the experienced folks will show you what to do. My 7 y/o is in the kids class. It’s a good mix of girls and boys, and the instructors are great at teaching children.”
