Max Sanchez
"Review for Altus Brazilian Jiu Jitsu I cannot speak highly enough of Altus Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and the incredible Professor Paulo. From the moment I stepped onto the mat, his welcoming attitude and warmth made me feel like part of a family. In a world where life can often get chaotic, Altus has been my safe haven. Since I began my jiu jitsu journey here, I’ve always felt a strong sense of belonging, even during times when I had to be away from work. Despite there being jiu jitsu schools closer to my home, I wouldn’t dream of training anywhere else. Altus is more than just a school; it truly is a family. Every class is an opportunity to challenge ourselves and strive to be the best we can be. Professor Paulo is not only an exceptional teacher but also a source of motivation. On days when you are feeling down or overwhelmed, he has an incredible knack for cheering you up and lifting spirits. I wholeheartedly give Altus 5 stars and look forward to continuing my training here for as long as this amazing school is around. If you’re looking for a place to grow, learn, and feel at home, Altus is the place to be! -Max Sanchez"

"Great instructors, great students. Welcoming environment but you can really push your self. The night classes work really well with my schedule they don’t get out too late. And 24 hour access to a great gym is unbeatable. You won’t find a better deal for a better value for a better price"
