I started BJJ at this gym. I was a beginner and attended their fundamental classes mostly. Niko taught the class and there is a lot to say about him. He is awesome. Not only is he a good coach, but a good person. He truly loves BJJ. For the little I attended, I will have memories at this gym. There is no better place to start. I moved to Austin and go to Fight Factory and wore the RPBJJ Gi and people recognized this gym because of the talent they have. They are well known. If you are thinking about going to this gym do it. You will not regret it.

Amazing BJJ school. I ve trained at RPBJJ since 2012. I realize looking back how fortunate I was to start at such an outstanding traditional BJJ school. If your visiting or relocating and looking for a place to learn BJJ the right way, stop by RPBJJ.

I have been training under Rodrigo Pinheiro for about two years now. Prior to this I trained at two other academies and I am happy to have found my forever home. My daughter has been training for a little over a year now and she loves it! Whether you are a high lever competitor or a hobbyist, young or old, in shape or not, this is the place to learn real martial arts.

Just my opinion, but this is the place to be in San Antonio. My brother moved to SATX, and when he asked where he should train, I recommended RPBJJ. Professor Rodrigo is one of the most accomplished competitors from his generation and has built one of the strongest teams in Texas. My gal and I were supposed to leave to SATX on Saturday, but my brother suggested I leave Friday, stay with him and we train on Saturday at 11AM. I was excited to train at RPBJJ due to their style of heavy pressure passing. Majority of the guys were out at Kissimmee, Fl coaching the at IBJJF Kids Pans or competing in the IBJJF Orlando Open. Professor David conducted an awesome class covering armbar, omoplata and triangle. He covered setups, and what to expect/do when countered from a guard passer. My brother and I did the technique together, which was followed by specific training using the positions covered, then we broke off into five 6-minute rounds. I got to roll with high level blackbelts, train hard all in a very welcoming and friendly environment. I highly recommend training here, or if you are passing through this is the place to stop at. Professors David, Manny, Tony were all great training partners, and I look forward to seeing these guys again in the near future.

Best place to train Brazilian Jui Jitsu in San Antonio if not the world. The athletes here and coaches are legit and top tier! I am extremely impressed with RPBJJs awesome instructors and professionalism. I love the family oriented community here and I will eventually get my kids in. If you are thinking about getting into Brazilian Jui Jitsu, look no further than RPBJJ you will not regret it.
