"I just wish we would have enrolled our child sooner! Professor Gui Is amazing with the students! My child is super excited to go to class and learn more. I highly encourage you to at least take advantage of the free class so you can see for yourself how awesome it is."
Julio Gutierrez
"My daughter has been learning BJJ under Professor Gui for almost 3 years, and I can’t say enough great things about him and the school. Not only has she improved technically on the mat, but her confidence has soared in all areas of her life. The lessons she’s learned go far beyond BJJ—they’ve helped her grow as a person. Professor Gui truly cares about his students’ development, both in martial arts and in life."
Jemima Dourado
"I should have enrolled my son sooner, Excellent school, teaching not only jiu jitsu but also discipline, focus, and helping my son get in shape while having fun. Thank you Professor Gui"
