James Chambers
"My son dropped in for a class while on vacay. Amazing gym and top notch people. Instructor Karen was fabulous and went out of her way to make my son feel comfortable."
Melanie Koussa
"Professor Bernardo Pitel is a great professor to study under. He goes over the technique and then the very small details that most professors forget to mention he will magnify magnificently. It’s great! I’m learning a lot. Clean school & nice people as well."
Jovani C.
"Professor Bernardo Pitel is hands down one of the best instructors I’ve ever trained with. The way he teaches really sticks with you—his technique, experience, and passion for Jiu Jitsu show in every class. Whether you’re just starting out or have been training for years, he meets you where you are and helps you grow. I can’t recommend him enough. If you’re thinking about starting or leveling up your BJJ journey, this is the place to be."
