Ricardo Rezende BJJ

"It is a pleasure to be able to practice jiu jitsu in this academy, with this professor. If you are thinking of starting or you are looking for where to practice this sport, I recommend this academy among all the others. The atmosphere with the colleagues is incredible. And the teacher's knowledge is infinite. Being under the tutelage of a world champion is something to take into account when choosing your trusted academy. This place has it all. I will never regret choosing this academy as my first jiu jitsu academy."

"If you’re thinking about starting martial arts, there’s no better place to begin than here. I started two months ago wanting to learn more about jiu-jitsu, and I found a welcoming environment where everyone supports each other. The coach, Ricardo, is amazing, he truly cares about his students and genuinely wants to see you improve. He pays special attention to beginners, so if you’re new to this world, don’t be afraid to give it a try as he is always looking out for his students."

"I was lucky enough to train with Ricardo at BJJ Gainesville for 2 months while I was visiting friends. The level of coaching is exceptional and the classes at structured in a way where it is easy to retain information and implement the new techniques into your game. More than this, the culture is fantastic. There is no ego with any of the coaches or students, which creates an incredible environment for learning, asking questions and improving together as a team. I've already been able to use some of the techniques I've learned at my gym at home & look forward to training with Ricardo and the team again in the future."

"Ricardo does an amazing job teaching the young kids. He is extremely patient when giving instructions and teaching techniques. It’s not only great exercise for the kids but they learn useful life skills as well."
