Lee M
"Rodrigo Gracie is the best! They just opened their Palos Verdes location in the Peninsula Center next to Subway. We go to the Torrance & PV locations and both locations are great. The place is spotless! Professo and his wife are wonderful at teaching the kids and offer more than just Jiu Jitsu. They help teach dedication, concentration and respect. After my child experienced some bullying at school, this class has really helped! They offer a free class to try them out if you’re interested in joining them."
Quinn Yost
"This place is incredible! The coaches are so great with kids! Rodrigo is a champion Jui Jitsu competitor and teaches the students important life skills. We couldn’t be happier."
