The Jiu Jitsu Lounge

“The Jiu Jitsu Lounge, owned and operated by Coach Luis and Coach Andrew, is a jiu Jitsu gym with two high level coaches that offer training to advanced and beginner students. The entire facility is clean and organized, plus they’re adding more everyday. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. In a short period of time since becoming a member, I've learned a lot, met good people and always enjoy my time there. The gym is not catered to adults only, they work with kids and teens as well. My younger brother became a member not long after me, and he enjoys it as well. Whoever you are, young, old, beginner or advanced. The Jiu Jitsu Lounge is the place to be.”

“If you live in the area, this is the school you want to train. I’ve trained under Professor Luis for a few years and he has developed my Jiu Jitsu leaps and bounds. The guy eats, sleeps, and breaths Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I don’t live in the area, so I try and stop by when I can - and when I do, I’m getting top notch training and rolling with top notch athletes. The facility itself brings with it an incredible atmosphere to work hard, study Jiu Jitsu, and relax with friendly people. I’m a huge fan of “THE LOUNGE”!”

“The Jiujitsu Lounge is a top-notch Jiu-Jitsu academy that truly stands out. The instructors, Luis Cabrera and Andrew Franco, are not only skilled but also incredibly patient, making sure every student—whether a beginner or advanced—receives the attention they need to improve. The classes are well-structured, blending technique, drills, and sparring in a way that promotes steady and safe progress. What really makes TJJL special is the welcoming and inclusive community. The positive atmosphere and camaraderie among students create an environment where you feel motivated and supported every step of the way. If you're looking to learn Jiu-Jitsu, get in shape, or challenge yourself, The Jiujitsu Lounge is the perfect place to start or continue your journey.”

“Prof. Lu and Prof. Drew are the best. They love what they do and it shows when they are teaching others. Prof. Lu is amazing with breaking down skills, creating strategic plans and encouraging problem solving with the kids. He has a great ability to relate to the kids and to have FUN.”

“I have been visiting New York and came across this gym. I had a great time being instructed by both Andrew and Luis where we did some drills and had some light rolls. The instruction was very high quality and we were able to ask questions. The environment was really cool. We hung out after and just talked; if I was a regular I could see myself spending a day there doing a couple classes, having a cup of coffee and playing video games on their setup. 10/10 If you’re able try it out.”
