Rob Pfeffer

""Since I started training with Fight For Life BJJ, I have not only seen significant improvements in my fitness, but I also feel completely confident in my ability to defend myself, thanks to their excellent BJJ instruction. They tailor the training to the needs of adults and children, while ensuring proper technique for each individual, making each class challenging yet enjoyable. They are not only coaches, but also mentors who foster a positive training atmosphere." Many thanks Rafaela and Henrique."

Jorge Castillo

"I've been training at this BJJ school for a few years now, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The instructor is not only an active competitor and tough coach but also holds a degree in physical fitness, which really shows in his teaching methods. He pushes us to our limits while ensuring we understand the techniques thoroughly. I came in as a blue belt, and he took me in without hesitation or judgment. The environment here is welcoming and supportive, and the people are genuinely cool and friendly. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced practitioner, this place has something for everyone. Highly recommend!"

Zach Magnum
