What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Sam Osborne
"The vibe of this gym is very welcoming and great for students of all ages, abilities, and levels of experience. The instructors are all super knowledgeable and help guide students to reach their full potential. People get into BJJ for a myriad of different personal reasons. Some gyms seem to have a common thread of pushing their own on agendas on students and don’t seem to care about everyone’s own reason for joining. Daniel Gracie Delco is not one of those gyms. Brett has created a culture of working hard, displaying mutual respect for everyone who comes in, and treating students as individuals who have their own reasons for being there and helps them to reach their goals. No agendas, no egos, just a lot of hard training individuals with dedication to improving their jiu jitsu skills and creating a better quality of life for themselves."
Louis Fattizzo
"Daniel Gracie Delco is an outstanding place for anyone interested in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, regardless of their experience level. The combination of high-quality instruction, a welcoming community, and a strong focus on personal development creates an ideal environment for growth. Safety is a top priority at Daniel Gracie Delco, and it shows in how classes are run. The instructors emphasize proper techniques and safety protocols, ensuring that the children train in a secure environment. Additionally, the program instills a sense of discipline and respect that extends beyond the mat, positively impacting their behavior in other aspects of life. the kids' program at Daniel Gracie Delco is an exceptional choice for parents looking to introduce their children to the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. With expert instruction, a focus on fundamentals, and a strong sense of community, it provides a well-rounded experience that promotes physical fitness, confidence, and valuable life skills. I highly recommend this program to any parent considering martial arts for their child!"
Michael A DePaolo
"This is my first experience training in BJJ. I'm 45 and wanted to do something to stay in shape. It turned out to be so much more than I expected. The instruction is exceptional and the workout is great. It's always a positive family oriented vibe even when we're being pushed to work as hard as we can. I definitely recommend Daniel Gracie Delco and hope to be there for years to come."
Bah Yahya
"Professor Bret is doing a great job at creating a great environment where all students feel welcome and feel part of the community! I trained at a lot of gyms, and certainly professor Bret is one of best instructors to break down complicated techniques into small understandable steps. On top of that, he is a great human being, whenever he saw me at a tournament before i started training with him (we used to train at the same gym before he opened his gym) he would offer to corner me. (Below is a picture of him and I in a tournament). Again great, humble, passionate human being!"
