Renzo Gracie Houston

"My son dropped in a no gi class with Instructor Brian while we were on vacation. What an amazing gym and great group of guys. Top notch all the way around!"

"A Truly Exceptional BJJ Experience I typically don't write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with Renzo Gracie Houston. This gym stands out not just for its top-notch Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instruction but for the genuine care and respect that permeate every class. Professor Brian Marvin is an outstanding instructor who treats every student equally, regardless of their skill level or competitive aspirations. Unlike some gyms where attention is primarily given to competitors, Professor Brian ensures that each individual receives the same level of guidance and support. His approach fosters an inclusive and encouraging environment that is rare to find. What truly sets this gym apart are the small, meaningful gestures. Before and after each class, Professor Brian takes the time to shake every student's hand and thank them for attending. This simple act creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel valued and appreciated. The community here is incredible—friendly, supportive, and entirely ego-free. Everyone is focused on learning, growing, and helping each other improve. It's a place where you can develop your BJJ skills while being part of a positive and uplifting community. If you're looking for a BJJ gym that combines high-level instruction with a genuinely caring and respectful environment, I can't recommend Renzo Gracie Houston enough. It's more than just a gym; it's a place where you can truly thrive."

"You cannot visit Houston without stopping here, they are basically the hub where people from different gyms go on Sunday for open Mat. Anyone who follows the sport would recognize the owner and head instructor, Brian Marvin, for his generous work with the military community. He is also an ADCC judge and still made it to teach a Monday noon class. Thank you for your amazing hospitality."
