This jiu-jitsu academy is truly exceptional, offering more than just world-class training—it provides an environment where everyone can thrive, both on and off the mats. The coaches here are the heart and soul of the academy, bringing a unique blend of expertise, patience, and genuine care to every class. They are not only skilled in teaching the technical aspects of jiu-jitsu but also deeply committed to fostering an inclusive atmosphere for all, including neurodivergent individuals. One of the most remarkable aspects of this academy is its impact on children. My kids have experienced incredible growth here, gaining confidence, discipline, and resilience that carry over into their lives outside of training. The supportive environment helps them feel empowered and valued, setting a solid foundation for success in school, sports, and social settings. For adults and kids, the training is versatile and caters to a wide range of goals.

The curriculum is well-structured, and the coaches provide individualized attention, ensuring that students of all skill levels feel challenged and supported. The community at this academy is equally impressive. From the youngest kids to seasoned competitors, everyone encourages and uplifts one another, creating a space where personal growth and camaraderie go hand in hand. If you're searching for a jiu-jitsu academy that delivers high-quality training while prioritizing inclusivity, personal development, and a welcoming environment, this is the place for you. It's more than just a gym—it's a community where you can grow, achieve your goals, and build lasting relationships.”

“Love this academy. There are three reasons for this: 1) It starts at the top. Professors Hugo Munoz and Victor Perales are gentlemen, who are so friendly and welcoming, with such a deep knowledge of BJJ that it will make your head spin. Coach Hugo and his team teach by breaking everything down to its most basic form, making it easy to follow the technique being taught, and in such a way that it is relatable to your level, whether you are a white belt or with years of training. 2) It is a place where positive reinforcement and encouraged reign. Everyone, without exception, all the coaches including the other students, are so helpful and friendly. No one hordes the knowledge. Everyone is so giving and helpful with their time and skill level. White belts do not feel "out-of-it" since the upper belts are always helping with technique and improvement. 3) One is not forced to compete. You are made welcome at the academy whether you are there for conditioning and fitness, for self-defense, or to overcome personal obstacles, whatever it is...and if you do want to compete you have, at your disposal, all the resources you could ever wish for! I feel so fortunate to have found Silverback BJJ, Professor Hugo Munoz, his coaches. I would put Silverback up against any other gym (teaching style and the speed at which students grasp each technique taught). Silverback Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a truly world class facility.”

“Just finished my first month with this gym and really glad I found them. It can be intimidating to enter male dominated spaces as a girl but they were super welcoming. If you’re looking for a gym or on the fence about anything, definitely give their trial week a try. Great guys, great atmosphere, can’t recommend them enough.”
