"So glad we found this place. Small classes with personalized instruction. Everyone is nice! Feels like a real community and the kids absolutely love it."
Michelle Siegler
"Our children love training with Master Daniel! He is highly skilled in training both martial arts techniques as well as helping us enforce values such as discipline, honesty, respect, and kindness. Our boys know how to protect themselves only when in danger as well as being kind, respectful boys. I highly recommend Gracie Terra Jiu Jitsu and Master Daniel!"

"If you are looking for the BEST Brazilian Jiu- Jitsu/MMA in Vero Beach, this it. Not only is this a big family setting that has the best instructor but it’s also a fun, and entertaining setting to see all the potential skills that your child can develop. Master Del Nova is a true professional who shows how much he enjoys teaching both kids and adults the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. This is not just a “class”, but an opportunity to promote self esteem, discipline and confidence , either that being in a child or an adult. I would highly recommend!!"
Kathy Godin
"Master Daniel and Gracie Jiu Jitsu are world champions training future champions. My kids now have confidence in themselves and believe they are champions...not just champions in martial arts but also champions in school and everything else they do. Master Daniel teaches them techniques to use only for good and also how to be good people. If I could give Gracie Terra and Master Daniel 10 stars I would. There is no where better place to have your kids training!!"
