Temple Martial Art Studio

“Training at Temple Martial Arts Studio has been an incredible experience. Under the guidance of Coach Marcio, the academy offers a unique approach to Jiu-Jitsu that emphasizes strong fundamentals, technical precision, and a culture free of ego. From day one, it was clear that this isn’t just a place to train—it’s a place to grow, both on and off the mats. The technical focus here is outstanding. Every class builds on core principles, ensuring that students develop a solid foundation that translates into real improvement. The environment fosters a deep understanding of Jiu-Jitsu, and Coach Marcio’s ability to break down techniques in a way that makes them accessible yet highly effective is second to none. Training with him and my dedicated mat partners has drastically improved my Jiu-Jitsu in ways I never expected. Beyond the physical aspect, Temple Martial Arts Studio embraces a holistic approach to training—one that extends beyond just grappling. While rooted in martial arts practice, there’s a subtle yet undeniable influence of Eastern philosophy, creating a balanced space for both mental and physical growth. The academy encourages discipline, mindfulness, and self-improvement, all without ever explicitly stating it. If you’re looking for a Jiu-Jitsu academy that values technical excellence, a strong community, and personal growth, Temple Martial Arts Studio in Coral Gables is the place to be. The experience here goes far beyond just learning how to fight—it’s about becoming a better version of yourself through the art of Jiu-Jitsu.”
