"Satori Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has been an incredible experience for our son! Since starting here, we’ve seen tremendous growth in his discipline, confidence, and overall mindset. The classes are a perfect blend of fun and focus—kids are always engaged, learning, and enjoying every moment. Coach Esdras is truly exceptional. He has a gift for teaching and connects so well with the kids. He creates an environment where students feel supported, challenged, and inspired to do their best on and off the mat. We’re so grateful to be part of the Satori family—this place is truly something special!"

"I’ve been a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner for 22 years, and a black belt since 2015, and I can confidently say that Satori Jiu-Jitsu is one of the best academies I’ve trained at. The head instructor, Esdras, is a fantastic teacher and coach who excels in guiding students of all levels and ages. His passion for the art and his impressive record of winning many large tournaments speaks volumes about his expertise and dedication. The team at Satori is composed of great training partners who are not only skilled but also incredibly friendly and supportive. They create an environment where everyone, no matter their level, can grow in knowledge, confidence, and experience. Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced practitioner, you’ll find a welcoming community here that’s committed to helping each other improve. Highly recommended!"
