Reviews
One of the best decisions in my entire career was coming to this academy. Not only do you meet people from every walk of life, but the level of detail and overall history here is hard to match. Was training at Renzo's for a little over two years. Under their Muay Thai Program, under coach Mark and Mateo. Not only is this gym highly credentialed in BJJ, but equally as talented when teaching Muay Thai.
What an amazing school with a great vibe! I stopped in when Master Renzo and John Danaher were doing a charity seminar for one of their students who had cancer.
Students were super cool and it was an amazing experience to walk into the World Headquarters of the Renzo Gracie Academy for the first time!
I was there for a moment, and Renzo Gracies nephew, Victor and his wingman, Jason came walking it. They greeted me as if I was a long lost friend and made me feel at home.
I was given a basic tour by Jason. I got changed and started basic warm ups with the class - Jog, butt kick, side to side, shrimp, etc.
The instruction was broken down. All and all it probably had 15 moves. We did breakout sessions w/ a partner 1st 5 moves, then 2nd 5 moves, then 3rd. Then, you drilled with resistance against the moves, once you had the move down start to finish.
After drilling, I rolled with a purple belt then blue, white and then a black belt. That black belt, George, holy cow, was he good. I gave it my all to try and kill him. I'm pretty sure during our roll, he checked his email and made a sandwich. That man was amazing!!!!! My drilling partner and all of my rolling partners; everyone was uber cool.
On my way out the door, I was stopped by Victor , who initially greeted me. After a quick discussion, he introduced me to Professor Renzo's daughter, who was just as cool as everyone else.
I'd highly recommend this place. I'm giving it 5 🌟 because I can't give it 6.
Show up on time, have a clean gi and be kind and respectful, and you'll love the place and fit in with no issues.
This place produced the
"Danaher Death Squad". I'm sure that they have "drop ins" trying to see if they can dominate Renzo's students. Don't be "that guy." Nobody likes "that guy."
Top instructors, history of excellence, very clean, and family friendly. Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, Mixed Martial Arts, Wrestling, Boxing… I love this gym! If you or your family are looking to increase physical fitness, improve overall health, learn self-defense, train with top athletes, learn from the best in BJJ, MMA, and Muay Thai… I highly recommend this gym!!
The Mecca of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in the Northeast.
All the staff is extremely friendly from the front desk to all the professors. Classes are taught by high level professors who’ve been learning from the best of the best. All students are very welcoming and helpful.
If you’re looking for high level training, recreational training or even to get in healthy lifestyle — highly recommended.
Best place to train and learn jiu jitsu. Amazing professors, great comradery amongst students. Can't recommend this place and picking up a martial art enough to someone. Been such a positive in my life.
Great place to learn bjj, a ton of competitive jitsers, great teachers and facilities. Mats are clean and training places are well air conditioned. Felt at home there.
Very welcoming community and solid instructors. Definitely worth scoping out with the trial classes if you're interested.
