Arte Suave Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy Charlotte

"I was visiting Charlotte today and trained under Coach James Walsh for the adult class and open mat. Everyone — students, the coach, and the lady behind the counter — was incredibly friendly. I was also able to train for free because I was only visiting for a day. Coach Walsh’s class was both entertaining and informative. I’m a brown belt, but he taught me variations on the triangle choke I had never seen before. His students are also incredibly well trained, as I could tell when I rolled with them after class. The gym was incredibly clean and there appeared to be a play area for parents with small children. I would HIGHLY recommend this gym for anyone living in, around, or visiting Charlotte."

"Absolutely a great experience here! I called the day of and spoke to Jimbo. Asked if I was welcome to come in and train. He and the 15-20 others welcomed me, and I had a great training session. I travel for work, and I was only in town for a few days but if you're looking for a place to train in Charlotte, full-time, then this is the place. I can't thank Jimbo and his team enough for the hospitality."

"Great academy! The instructors are awesome and have made a great family atmosphere. Love that they offer 3 days of 6am classes. Can't wait for my kids to be old enough for the kids class. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone!"
