My son has been going here for a few months now. Bryan is his coach, he is very good at what he does and good with the children, most importantly. My son loves going here, he goes 5 days a week, that’s how much he loves it.

People were nice but it is just way too expensive. Incredibly overpriced and they were kind of pushy about getting me to sign up without even letting me do any live rolling in my trial class. I was very disappointed.

I’ve been jujitsu for a year now and it’s great. There are so many professors that are good and everyone is super nice. I’ve learned to be humble and learn a whole differ martial art. I highly recommend for everyone

I had scheduled a intro workout for 7:30 pm, but when I got there, I wasn’t started until 8:00 pm because of another client who ended up going over. However… Even with that small snafu, I do have to say that Jacob went above and beyond, and went the extra mile.
He gave me an intro class on kickboxing, which was really fun. We started out with a warmup, which was just adequate. We went into some basics, jabs, uppercuts, crosses, hooks, and then we started adding a bit of kicking into the process. He had me do a series of exercises in repetitions, and I have to say that I really sweat a lot from the workout.
After that, Jacob and I talked about the program, the fees, and about the facilities and the different programs.
The fact that you get different sign up options, and the fact that they are willing to work with you, in order to best suit your fitness needs. I have to say I was very happy with it. Although it was a bit more money than what I was expecting to pay, the more time I got to spend watching the Ju Jitsu class and the attention to detail and the way techniques are explained, just made a lot of sense.
You can tell that there is a high level of professionalism, as well as a LOT of experience.
They have a small rewards system, each class type has a progression system, and they take the time to make your feel comfortable in their facilities.
The only thing I would have to say that I didn’t appreciate about the experience is the website. It’s very overwhelming, and not enough real information is provided. I don’t want to click on a link and every page be linked to a video.
But the actual experience when I was there, and my interactions with the staff, was really great.

My son has been attending classes here for just over 3 yrs. He loves it more today than he ever did. Coach Mike, who teaches the kids classes, is as good as they come, if not better. He truly has a way with kids. The studio focuses on teaching kids the fundamental in a friendly, caring environment. They do not give prices over the phone because they want potential students to try out a class and see if it is a right fit for them. They also want you to see what you are getting for your money. Gracie Morumbi, like Jiu Jitsu, is not for everyone. Creating little competing machines is not what this studio is about. Gracie Morumbi is about teaching children in a fun, family friendly environment. The kids have fun and learn Jiu Jitsu skills. The best thing you can do for your self and your child is to come down and take a FREE introductory class. You have nothing to loose.

This is a very special place. It is one of the few places in the world where you can go train on a normal day during the week and find up to 6 world class black belts training hard with all the other students. If you are just beginning or have been training for years, this is the place you want to be! The excellent structure equips the most novice student with the right building blocks and skills to become an excellent practitioner. If you are already more advanced, there are plent y of excellent instructors and higher ranking students to take your game to the next level.

We wanted to try jiu jitsu for our son, because my husband has been doing it for several years and has a brown belt with the Machado school in the Valley. Our budget is meticulously determined, and our time is valuable; so we want to make good choices based on the information we receive. I asked for a price quote, and was told we needed to «experience» the studio. I asked if the director could call us back, and left my phone number. Our call was never returned. This unprofessional attitude forces us to imagine that studio and its director are not family friendly, or willing to balance the needs of the customer with their business goals. Not to mention, the website was really over the top, and didn’t show how students competed.
