Emre Mangir
"This place is awesome. Clean mats. Friendly environment. Good practitioners. No cult-y BS, just good training. The Saturday morning class with Sal and Asa was one of the best visitor experiences I've ever had, highly recommended. Great environment for kids from what I could tell as well."
ELITE TABLETOPS
"We’re in town for work and brought the family on this trip. My son signed up for a FREE Week at Carlson Gracie in Wine Country. I was able to meet one of the instructors Asa; He introduced himself to us and made us feel at home. Our son has taken part in the classes for 3 nights & he’s had the greatest experience! The staff, instructors, and classmates made him feel welcomed and they didn’t take it easy on him, They put him right into the mix with the other students! Our family has learned some moves & techniques based off of what he learned in just a few days. Tonight he was instructed by Co-owner Sal Spinelli, he said Sal was awesome! We are thankful our son had something enjoyable to do, thank you for making him feel welcomed & unbreakable! 💪🏽 We highly recommend Carlson Gracie for all ages, looking for self defense taught by true professionals in all aspects!"
Hunter Niemiec
"Professors Asa and Sal are dedicated to fostering a family-friendly, judgment-free environment that emphasizes sport jiu-jitsu while incorporating self-defense techniques. Whether you’re just beginning your jiu-jitsu journey or looking to advance your skills, this is an excellent place to train."
Nicole Bañuelos
"I enrolled my daughter here at the end of summer. She’s 5 and is apart of the littles class (4-6). Since being apart of the team she’s gained so much self confidence. She has amazing instructors who are extremely patient and work very hard with all of these kids 4-5 days a week to make sure they perfect their goals. We love this place, both my daughter and husband have joined the team and are always happy to go. 10/10."
