Started doing BJJ a few months ago here at NYC BJJ Academy, with Professor Jefferson and couldn’t be more satisfied/happier. The professor if the man, great teacher on and off the mat. One of the best things about this gym is the community. Everyone’s very welcoming and supportive no matter what your skill level is. Got a couple of my buddies to join and the classes are a blast. I’m looking forward to coming here for years to come. Couldn’t recommend it more.

Jefferson and his team excel at guiding students through the learning process, ensuring that each step builds on the last. Their expertise and dedication are truly unmatched. When I started, I had little to no experience, yet I never felt out of my depth. The supportive environment they create has deepened my appreciation for the art. I highly recommend anyone interested to give it a try—it's a transformative experience.

Started taking class with Jefferson (the handsome fellow in the first pic) a couple months ago. Came in totally new and out of shape. Jefferson has done a great job walking through techniques in a controlled space. The space is clean and well maintained. The staff(shout to Norma and Aaliyah) are friendly and personable. If you’re interested in trying out bjj I cannot suggest this place enough!

NYC BJJ has been an amazing space to train. Professor Jeferson creates a welcoming environment encouraging to newcomer, but also for more competitive practitioners like myself. Jeferson’s instruction is thorough but not rigid and he always gives individual attention when needed. Since training here I’ve won one tournament and placed at another. Excited to keep growing and learning.

Stopped in for a class when I was in the area. This place is both welcoming, clean, and talented. If you are looking for a place to start your BJJ journey, they will take you in with open arms and you will walk out with confidence you never knew you had. Vitor is a great professor and if you are reading this, sorry I had to leave without saying goodbye!
