Reviews
This gym is great everything is state of the art. Very tastefully done all around. And they are very friendly, personable and accommodating. The value is also excellent there is nothing more I could ask for. I will train here for a long time and it’s always getting better! So much fun!
This place has been fantastic. Our son loves the instructor and his peers, and muay thai has helped tremendously with his attention disorder.
My son started BJJ at Brazil Academy in August and has absolutely loved it. It has benefitted him so much both physically and mentally. The atmosphere here is awesome. So much so that I decided to start training as well. It has been such a positive change in both of our lives and we love it here!
Great atmosphere! Highly supportive and dedicated instructors. Students, without exception, are welcoming and respectful. You feel you’re part of something special. At 72, I’m just beginning my journey, but I already feel I ‘fit in.’ It’s what anyone - individuals, like myself, or families can experience at the Brazil Academy. And it’s a tribute to the leadership at the Brazil Academy - they got this right!
Wasn’t sure what to expect at first. I will say the instructors are amazing and keep the kids engaged!!!! I love the fact that while learning the skills of BJJ they are also learning Portuguese. One of the best investments we have made.
