I stopped by the gym as a visitor while traveling for work. Very welcoming gym from the blue belt students all the way up to Luiz. He spent time with me one on one helping refine some specific techniques which I had been struggling with. If you are in Chicago I would strongly recommend Luiz and the gym.

LCCT BJJ is the absolute best around! Couch Luiz, and all of the coaches, are master technicians, and help all of the students in class maximize their potential. LCCT has a family like atmosphere, as Coach Luiz and others care about each and every student. I very much recommend LCCT BJJ, as it is a place, which could help you reach your goals, along with meeting really good people, along the way!!!

LCCT Brazilian Jiu Jitsu provides me with the best establishment to learn BJJ. I learn best in a non pressure environments. Luiz and Raphaella are extremely professional and kind in nature. Here, everyone gets treated with respect- It’s truly like a family here and that attitude trickles down to the very culture of the gym. The atmosphere is also engaging and very fun you’ll want to keep coming back.
As a teacher, Luiz is attentive to every student and monitors their growth, like a farmer cares for his crops. All of the members share their knowledge and we continue to grow together as there

I just signed up my son. We were really pleased with the gym and staff. It was super clean, and they made us wear a mask before even entering the building. My son took part in a small sized class due to social distancing which we loved and he couldn’t even go on the mats until he had a temperature check, and hand sanitizer. I had luckily grabbed the last seat in the waiting room due to limited spaced out seating. All in all we are super pleased to have found this academy. After searching the area some other places did not go above and beyond like this school did with their safety measures. Way

I have been a student here for a little over 2 years. The hard lessons I have learned on the mats of this gym have helped me to become a better person to the people in my life, to sharpen my resolve, and to appreciate the small things in life. To move forward in the sport, Jiu Jitsu teaches you to improve your mind, body, and soul. Luiz is an amazing teacher, but he is an even more impressive and outstanding human being. This place is family, it is a place to better yourself and those around you, and I consider myself lucky to have the privilege to learn from a true master of the art. Oss!

LCCT Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is not a gym, it is a FAMILY!!! Luiz Claudio is the best professor. His way of teaching is top notch.
He makes you understand in a way, that anyone can get it. The school is clean, and very inviting.
Everyone that is there goes out of their way to help you no matter what it is.
If you are looking for a place to just start or take your Jiu jitsu to the next level, then look no further. LCCT BJJ is it. I am supper thankful them.

Just started here a little over a month ago. Nervous at first about making this life change, but the instructors and Luiz made you feel welcome and part of the family immediately. Very knowledgeable instructors who want all to grow together. Top notch stuff.

Great atmosphere! People here are real professionals but really fun at the same time. I'm so happy my son is having the chance to learn Jiu Jitsu which I believe will only bring him great benefits. Luiz and Raphaella are amazing instructors and very knowledgeable.

This gym has been our 2nd home. Our kids train with Luiz is the best and all the coaches train our kids like their own. Anyone who has something negative to say is obviously a sore loser and doesn't know any better. LCCT our family backs you up 100%!!! Let's bring more gold home in 2019!!!! Oss

We love this place and the all coaches.
Waiting area is small though and no cups for water. Waiting area on bjj side can be improved. Single use recyclable not plastic cups can be used. Yes I know places with cups in gyms even for kids.
All my concerns are not that important, my kids love this place and always ready to go for class. Thanks to Luis and all coaches.
We are happy to be a part of lcct family.

The best academy for jiujitsu in my opinion, professor Luiz Claudio and his cadre are unique with their knowledge of details behind their jiujitsu and what they teach their students. I come all the way from California to be a part of this family and to receive their instruction

If you want to learn from the best, work hard and be part of a family then look no further. LCCT has black belts teaching all BJJ classes. Luiz and Thiago are both black belts under Rickson Gracie so by training with them you become part of the Gracie lineage. This gym has changed my kids lives. They are stronger and more confident since they started training and that's priceless! They have given up all other sports because they love Luiz and Thiago's classes so much. I really can't say enough about how amazing LCCT is and how grateful I am to be a part of their family!

I came here from a previous martial arts school. I was expecting to be judged. My son needs guidance and someone who is patient with him. Walking in I was nervous....not even 10 min there and I felt so comfortable! My son loves it there. He's made so many friends and Coach Luiz is a saint with amazing patience. I have gained motivation and friendships that will last a lifetime. LCCT is one of the best places adults and kids can go to feel safe and comftorable no matter what skill level you are at!

No matter your current skill, fitness level or gender you will find your family here!! I entered Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as a complete newbie to Martial Arts. I have learned so much since beginning and have made real friends! The instructors and upper belts are so welcoming and encouraging. I highly recommend you reach out and try a free class to see what they are teaching! You will not regret it!

So far so great! Attention to detail is off the charts.. Ralphaella is fantastic to work with, gets you going and signed up with a smile :) .. The instructors are awesome, social and disciplined not to mention highly advanced. Coach Kyle and his wrestling class is awesome! He's a high level wrestler who knows his stuff, his history and of course all the moves and technique you'll need to become a wrestler or improve your current skillset. Wrestling is the base and Coach Kyle teaches that base at its highest level. Coaches Luiz, Thiago and Dennis in the BJJ classes have their fair share

My son started here a year ago, and immediately loved it. From the 1st day we went to view the school, the owner Luiz made us feel like part of the family. We look forward to each day we get to go there and learn from the best which is a direct lineage to Rickson Gracie.
This school is not just a business like most gyms. They truly are a FAMILY, which we are extremely proud to say we are a part of. They offer not only the best Jiu-Jitsu but also several other fitness programs.
Once you go, you won't want to be anywhere else! Thank you Luiz, Thiago, and Raphaella. Oss to my LCCT family

I have only been training here for a short time, and everyone at LCCT has been very welcoming and supportive. It has been, and continues to be, a unique honor to learn from Professor Luiz Claudio and Professor Thiago Veiga, both of whom are not only Rickson Gracie black belts who hold multiple world championship titles, but are exceptional teachers who truly care about their students. The professor's understanding and command of their art are astonishing. When teaching, the professors show the connection between the specific techniques and the details, underlying principles and concepts, so

Just started doing the beginners classes and I cannot wait to advance! Luis and his crew are amazing! Very helpful and supportive. The gym was getting old and this was the perfect change of pace, plus you get in shape and learn a valuable skill.
