"My Daughter Jaylah Started October 30th of last year I can see that Professor Lusando truly loves his students you can see his passion for this sport. He takes time to teach all of the kids proper techniques in life lessons making it fun at the same time. I trust him and his staff completely. Gracie jiu-Jitsu is so welcoming! ❤️ I highly recommend you to bring your kids here. 🙂"
"I was looking for a Martial Arts School for my boys (8 and 5 years old) so they could learn self-defense. I found this school and was intrigued by the Bullyproof Program and the 10-day free trial that they offer. The instructors are very patient and caring with the kids. I am in my 40's with no marital arts or self-defense experience and after seeing the teaching style and the focus on safety I decided to join the adult beginner's class. It has been awesome learning Jiu Jitsu with my boys. Jimi runs a great school, and the instructors and students are all very kind and welcoming."
"Great facility to train at with great instructor’s great owner and a great group of guys to train with. This is not a fight club like some places. Everyone actually cares about each others well-being here so if that’s what stopping you come in and check it out for your self. My kids and myself love training here at Gracie jui jitsu Mesa🤘🏼"
"Our son just started attending here and it has been so good for him! The instructors are patient and after his third lesson my son is already starting to feel very comfortable here! I am so excited to see my son’s improvement as he continues on his Jiu Jitsu journey!"
