I had the utmost privilege to study under Marcus for about 3 years. He is absolutely the real deal and an incredible instructor. A gentle killer:) I have an extensive background in martial arts and this was such an honor to have him as my teacher!! I learned so much and all of his black belts and students are seriously amazing! Great academy I truly cannot say enough about Marcus!! I feel very prepared to defend myself and family and walk with much more confidence!! Thank you Marcus!!! Oooosssssssssss
Marcus is a phenomenal jiu-jitsu instructor who creates a positive and encouraging environment for kids. My son (9) and daughter (6) both love attending class. Highly recommend! Our family plans to be long-term members!
My 11- and 14-year-old kids trained at Renzo Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy of Boca Raton and had an outstanding experience. The academy has a great atmosphere, very attentive instructors, and a safe environment for kids to learn and grow. The owner is extremely involved and present every day — something rare and truly impactful. He follows the students closely, motivates them, and creates a positive environment that my kids absolutely loved. I highly recommend this academy to any family looking for a serious, welcoming place with top-level instruction.
Great jiu jitsu spot! My son started not long ago and already loves it. Instructor Marcus is patient, encouraging, and great with kids. The environment is positive and welcoming, and it’s been amazing to see my son so excited and confident. Highly recommend!
Renzo Gracie JiuJisu Academy is an amazing place to learn and practice BJJ. Marcus is highly skilled and patient jiu jitsu instructor for adults and kids. My husband has being training here for about 10 years and our kids started classes at age of 5. We train here at least 3 times a week and we love coming together for open mat on Saturdays. The kids classes are amazing because the children have lots of fun learning the tecniques, so they always look forward to the next class. Last but not least, the Women Self Defense Classes on Saturdays are absolutaly amazing. If you're thinking about trying out Brazilian jiu jitsu, this is right the place. I highly reccomend Renzo Gracie Jiu Jitsu Academy.
