"Brazilian Top team has completely changed my life from my health and weight loss to the way I can protect myself in the street. Every class I learn another technique that elevates my game. The way Professors Guto teaches makes it easy for people of all levels from beginner to advanced level students. I highly recommend anyone of any age of level to come check it out. You won’t regret it!!"
"BTT was the second gym I tried in Charlotte and the one I ended up calling home. Guto provides great instruction whether you are a beginner or come with experience. Guto creates an environment that is focused on growth and has an ability to break things down in a way that is very easy to understand and apply. The gym culture is respectful and encouraging with no egos. Everyone is there to get better and sharpen their skillset. This is a great gym for both hobbyist and competitors. If you’re looking for a place to train hard, make friends, and improve, I can’t recommend this gym enough!"
"Second BJJ I did a trial pass at… loved it from the moment I walked in. Coach Guto is very personable and takes the time to instruct all levels with patience. 10/10 recommend coming to this gym and learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or continuing your training if you are looking for a change of scenery. Very personable group."
