Vermont Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

“My son started Jiu Jitsu about 9 months ago when he was 5 and is absolutely hooked. I appreciate the team that Julio has assembled to coach the kids, his approach works. My son is more agile, more confident, and more aware of ways to tumble without being injured, all things you'd expect from training. But he's also become more respectful and gained an appreciation for perseverance and practice sooner than I expected.”

“The Jiu jitsu classes for kids is amazing. My son just turned 5 and has been attending classes for 3 months now. He has improved so much already. The instructors are amazing and the atmosphere is very team building and positive. All the kids seem so focused and really seem to enjoy the classes. Highly recommend!”

“I had no martial art background at all and was a bit nervous to start, but the staff and students here have been so welcoming and helpful, I feel right at home now coming to class. So glad I started my martial art journey at VT BJJ!”

“My journey in Vermont Brazilian jiu jitsu has changed my life in many ways! I am less than 3 months into it. I have already lost 10 lb., gain confidence and have a whole new view on the belief that I have in myself! I am very excited to continue my journey and BJJ at Vermont Brazilian jiu-jitsu for many years to come!”

“Professor Julio Fernandez was a protege of the legendary Master Carlson Gracie, one of the founding fathers of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. A multiple time Brazilian and World champion competitor, Julio was one of the first to teach BJJ in the US. His students demonstrate a high level of skill, and enjoy the supportive, family-type atmosphere at VTBJJ.”
