Vilanova Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

"Been taking my daughter for two years now, we're so thankful for this community, the amazing professors, coaches, and fellow students. Such a positive community! Stellar technique taught! Doesn't get better than this."

"My sons have been taking classes with Professor Beto and Professor Liz for 4 years. My boys are ages 6 & 8. They have grown in their confidence and skills. Both Professors are so great with kids. Classes are structured, yet fun and encouraging. They hold holiday parties for the kids. It feels like a family."

"We’ve had a fantastic experience at this academy. Professors Liz and Beto are incredible with the kids, making each one feel like they truly belong. Their warm, personal greetings and friendly approach create a positive and encouraging atmosphere. Not only do they keep the classes engaging with their great sense of humor, but their extensive knowledge ensures that the kids are learning and improving with every session. It’s clear they genuinely care about their students, and we couldn’t be happier!"

"My son has been attending Vilanova’s youth classes for about a year, and I continue to be impressed by them. The coaches are supportive yet firm. Students know they are in a safe environment where they can grow and learn, and they know their professors will hold them accountable to the clear expectations that are laid out during classes. Because of this, classes run smoothly and students benefit from a tone that is both serious and fun (no easy feat for a large, mixed age group). In addition, Vilanova’s commitment to fostering community is impressive. So many establishments and businesses have building community in their mission statements, but Vilanova is one of the few that truly live up to it. They frequently offer well-organized events for members and their families and friends, and are constantly offering community outreach via special classes geared toward the many different ability and comfort levels of the diverse population they serve. We’re happy we found Vilanova!"
