Customer Testimonials
“This is an amazing gym – been here around 3 years now and haven’t looked back. I train mostly Brazillian Jiu Jitsu but their Self Defence and MMA classes are amazing as well. The culture is great – everyone is super welcoming and friendly! Eddie, Thiago and Rafa are amazing teachers and ensures safety and community comes first; haven’t seen a single injury during the time I’ve been here. ”
Could not recommend this family run Jiu-jitsu enough.
My son has been attending now 3-6 days a week for a year and he absolutely loves it. He truly looks up to the teachers and has gained a great deal of confidence and education. The Ortiz family are the Best in the business.
There are plenty of Jiu Jitsu schools on the beaches, but only one has Edson Ortiz. A great instructor and role model who has not only produced world champions, but changed the lives of many of his students, including me. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, and the Jiu Jitsu is world class.
