"I can’t stress enough how great this Jiu Jitsu gym is. Professor Ed Ramos is a world class instructor that teaches and mentors students with the upmost passion and dedication. The culture of the gym is very warm and welcoming, making sure all new students and athletes enjoy their experience while in class. Every athlete that I have met at this gym carries the same sentiment and is very welcoming and respectful of everyone who enters the gym. The offerings of Kickboxing/Muy Thai classes is also a massive benefit in overall rounding your self defense skills. I highly recommend Inspire Jiu Jitsu Academy and Ed Ramos HQ for any skill level athletes of Jiu Jitsu & MMA."
"Professor is fantastic with kids—calm, patient, and encouraging. He creates a structured environment while still allowing the kids to have fun before and after training. It’s clear he enjoys working with them, and they respond really well to his approach"
"Great students, amazing rolls, great instructors, everyone is very passionate and consistent and confident but also very caring what ever you ask they will give you the information you need but also very helpful on helping you improve on jiu jitsu skills or mindset. Overall it’s a very great atmosphere! Went there with my brother and we had an amazing time"
"Ed is a world-class competitor and teacher from Brazil, yet is an approachable and humble leader. I felt comfortable participating for just a drop in and loved the technique we learned. Even though it was a small noon class, I left as if I just did a 2-hour open mat work out. Beautiful gym in a nice location as well."
