What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Lizary Cuellar
"We’ve been part of this amazing jiujitsu family for almost 3 years now, and I can’t say enough good things about it. My daughter has grown so much since she started — not just in her skills on the mat, but in her confidence, focus, and discipline. She’s more active, motivated, and proud of herself with every class. The environment is welcoming and supportive. From day one, Sydney and Professor Marcos made us feel like part of a real community. They are patient, encouraging, and truly care about each student’s progress — both on and off the mat. If you’re looking for a place where your child can learn self-defense, build confidence, and be surrounded by positive role models, this is the place to be. We’re so grateful to be part of this jiujitsu family!"
Matthew Marino
"Brazil-021 Houston is an incredible place to train. The atmosphere is welcoming, supportive, and full of positive energy. The instruction is top-tier—technical, thoughtful, and always focused on helping every student improve. I truly can’t say enough about Professor Marcos. His passion for the art, attention to detail, and ability to teach at all levels make this academy stand out. Whether you're brand new to Jiu-Jitsu or a seasoned practitioner, this is the place to be."
Vic Hung
"My son has been training at Brazil 021 since the beginning of 2024. The coaches are friendly and very attentive with all the kids. Even if a student is not a high level competitor, I see the coaches still give them just as much attention and it’s clear they want all the students to grow as people and as Jiu Jitsu practitioners. The environment in both children and adult classes is very friendly and welcoming. Both my son and I have made a lot of new friends here and I feel very fortunate to have found such a great place for him to train at. I belong to a different team, but I always have a great time at Open Mat sessions here and all the students share knowledge with me when we train. It’s particularly fun to roll with Coach Gavin or Professor Marcos, who wreck me and make me question my existence on the mat. And magically, nothing is ever injured but my pride 😂 Whether you are looking to be an active competitor, want to learn self defense, or just want a fun way to get some exercise, you absolutely will find it at Brazil 021."
Rodrigo Gama
"Perfect place to be. It’s not only an academy, it’s a family! Congratulations professor Marcos, you had build the best academy in Houston! The atmosphere is great. It was a pleasure to be with you and bring my boy. Thank you very much for the reception! Hope to see you soon. RECOMMEND 100%. Bring your family here. Do not waist more time. Jiu jitsu is a lifestyle. When you get in you will never come back. I bet! Great time we have here! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻"
