"Coach Mauricio Rizzada has been my oldest son coach for few years and have been amazing..He work out people inside and out..Its been so rewarding to trust him, not only for his knowledge in sports but the transformation he does with it..now my youngest son is joining the team and we cant think on going on somewhere else, so far we been hanging a few medals on our family wall but the most important we had on them is the hard work, respect,confidence, discipline and dedication they learn. Hats off!!!"
"I started training Jiu Jitsu with Rizzada three years ago. I had to stop for unrelated medical reasons last year, but as soon as I am better I will be right back there to train again. It's a small gym with a good vibe and great people. Everyone there is friendly and helpful. I really felt at home there. It' s a great place to begin or continue training BJJ. Coach Mauricio Rizzada is the best. He's a great man with incredible talent who will truly inspire you to be the best you can be in life and Jiu Jitsu. Oss"
