Tomacelli Academy: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Mixed Martial Arts

“Awesome place to train. The crew here is super mellow & friendly. Cool staff n even a cooler kids program... Come check em out!! Tell em I send ya!!”

“Im a blackbelt that was passing by the costa Mesa area and manage to spend some good hours training at this academy. I don't usually write reviews but this academy deserve it. Good people, good positive vibes. Everyone are very welcoming here. Have been training at gyms all around the globe, having spend a couple of full days at this gym I have to say it is rare to see a enthusiastic gym owner put so much efforts day in and day out at this place, maintaining a good clean environment and creating such a positive family vibe. Bjj curriculum is also backed by a legend of the sport, Joe Moreira who make occasional appearance teaching here. Speaking of which nothing can possibly go wrong starting your martial arts journey here. This space have a ring, a cage, bjj mats and all kinds of fitness equipments. Totally recommended.”

“Really like this place. My membership covers Joe Moreira and Mike Tomacelli Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Marco Ruas Vale Tudo, Ken Smith Combatives and a whole bunch of other great martial arts skills. They have a really nice clean BJJ area, MMA Octagon and a great Kickboxing bag set up. They also have some great boxing and Muy Thai classes as well. I have been to quite a few MMA places over the years and I have found this one to be my favorite. Highly recommend to anyone that wants a great workout and develop some good skills as well. They also gave a really good kids program as well, which I think is very important these days.”

“I enjoyed it for the past 10 years off and on. Its been a long journey in training and learning from the best. I tried other gyms but this one I enjoyed the most. If u are local or out of town, I strongly recommend this dojo. Lots of great people from all backgrounds of fighting styles and the classes are intense. Check it out!”
