Christopher Ramos
"I’ve known Leo since 2018, he has a deep passion for Jiu Jitsu and looks to share that with everyone and anyone that walks through his doors. If it’s your first day, looking to learn self defense, pick up a new skill, fitness, seasoned or looking to compete in the art/ sport Leo will accommodate you. Highly recommended."
Phillip D'Amico
"I would highly recommend Mercury Jiu Jitsu to anyone. It's a great "mom and pop" spot to learn and grow in a skill set within a safe and genuine environment. The most enjoyable part is the workout we get within the classes and the passion from the instructors. It inspires me to continue with my training and be the best I can become."
Brian Romero
"It's a freakin cool place. Seriously - this place is worth visiting. Came here from CA to visit the CIA with my son and had downtime. Reached out to Leo and he welcomed me in. Solid technique indeed. k guard - backside 50/50, heel hooks... the whole shebang. Def will give this place a visit anytime I'm in town:"
Antonio Fonseca
"This is an amazing gym. Having no experience whatsoever in BJJ I still was able to walk in and feel comfortable and learn so much from everyone already. Leo is very nice, and super laid back and is a great teacher no matter how much experience you have and is very welcoming. If you’re looking for a family aspect I think this is a great place and would definitely recommend it if you want to get into BJJ."
