Good place to train. Good black belt coaches, technical and safe BJJ. Not a lot of head hunters in the gym that will hurt you. Very skilled athletes. Safe for kids and women. Come train with us!

I have learned so much under the guidance of head Professor Diego Diniz. The Academy Jiu Jitsu has a strong focus on safety and a true passion for Martial Arts. It is a highlight of my week to come train BJJ with my kids. Come for fitness, self defense, or to grow in the skill of your sport, The Academy Jiu-Jitsu has classes for kids, Women Only BJJ, Adult BJJ, and Judo.

This is an incredible place to learn and train with genuine people who are dedicated to the art of Jiu Jitsu and the mindful growth that comes with it. The instruction is top-notch and technical, the students are focused, and the environment and culture are a rare mix of warm and friendly while also intentional and reverent. We challenge and support each other, and everyone is genuinely excited to see the improvements of others along with their own. Your growth is personal, yet the journey is shared.

This place is excellent! Professors Diego, Josh, Kleber provide high-level instruction and a diverse skillset to really help bring your jiu jitsu and overall grappling to the next level. I've also seen a marked improvement in the state of the facility since The Academy JJ took over this spot. Most importantly, the mats are kept extremely clean (I see someone cleaning every time I'm there) and I haven't had a single skin problem since I started training here. There are a lot of good places to train Jiu Jitsu around the space coast. This one is hands down the best I've experienced so far.

Most mat space I have seen anywhere around here. Very clean too! Professor Diego Diniz is great with the kids as a 5th degree black belt who regularly competes, he is very current on technique. Highly recommend gym for all ages
