"This was my first class in Jui-Jitsu. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and explained the exercises very effectively. I also spoke with Kevin who was also knowledgeable in the practice and talked about his experience and the origins of Jui-Jutisu, which is very cool."
"I have been training at the academy since Aug 2021. Professor Leandro has created an amazing community and everyone is there for each other. Professor Leandro demonstrates and gives you all his knowledge from all his experiences competing in tournaments and life. Professor Leandro brings an amazing experience from Judo in the Olympics to life situations. Everyone is super welcoming and friendly. One Big Family. If you are looking to be apart of a community and learn Jiu-Jitsu and self Defense then you found the right place."
"Best gym ever! 1. Professor Leandro and coaches are incredibly skilled, practical, and friendly. We even have a visiting professor who’s an Olympic bronze medalist—how awesome is that? 2. The gym is spacious, with enough room for 10-15 sparrings happening at once. 3. Most importantly, the teammates are super supportive. I've trained at a few gyms before, but I’ve never experienced such a welcoming and friendly team. Feeling lucky to train with these lions and lionesses! Highly recommend!"
"A great place to train. The academy is clean, the instructors are patient and knowledgeable, and the members are all welcoming and friendly. My son, who is autistic, enjoys training here and it has helped him to work on his social skills, increase his self confidence, and develop perseverance. If you’re looking for a Jiu Jitsu academy, you should check out Castroviejo BJJ."
