Mata Leao Combat Sports

"Best gym i have ever trained at. I'm an experienced wrestler and the bjj classes are some of the most insightful I have ever taken. Plenty of beginner and experienced adults and kids classes for both self defense and competition. Everyone is very kind and supportive of whoever and wherever you are in life. Definitely will be a long time member."

"Mata Leao is a truly excellent gym, both for complete beginners and those who have a few years of experience. Omar and the rest of the instructors are knowledgeable and welcoming; fostering a community of people who embody the passion and dedication inherent in the art form."

"This BJJ academy in Portland is top-notch! A huge shoutout to Tristan for being so supportive and helpful throughout my onboarding – he made getting started a breeze. Meeting Professor Omar during orientation was a great experience, and my initial classes have me completely sold. I've already learned a ton in both no-gi and gi sessions with Professor Omar and CJ in just a few visits. For anyone on the fence, it's definitely worth the drive for this quality of instruction and welcoming atmosphere."
