A year and a half ago I started training here, after searching out schools in the Tampa Bay area. At first I was intimidated as I had never attended a martial arts class. I quickly was put as ease as the instructors truly wanted me to learn and all the students, from white belt to black belt made me feel relaxed. I go about two to three times a week and make the drive form Tampa. It is well worth it! I highly recommend trying out a few classes (they will let you try for free). Professor Eduardo is the best. Look him up and you will see. Jiu jitsu will change your life!

Over a decade ago I was fortunate enough to begin my BJJ journey under professor Eduardo de Lima. Due to the education and inspiration derived from his instruction, I've won many championships, opened my own school, and grown as a human being.
I cannot recommend this school enough. Don't miss the opportunity to train with one of the best instructors in the US, it just might change your life.
