My two sons and I have been attending Rilion Gracie Academy for about six months now, and the experience has been incredible. Everyone has been extremely welcoming and has played a big role in helping my boys develop not only new skills, but more importantly, discipline. It’s a truly family-oriented organization, and we always feel supported and encouraged. I couldn’t recommend it more.

We’ve been attending for the past three years. During this time, I’ve watched my boys develop self confidence and become physically fit. Just as important, Rilion Gracie emphasizes character development and embraces a welcoming, family culture. If you or someone you know has ever considered martial arts, this is absolutely the best place to learn. You will be welcomed and supported regardless of skill level.

I joined Rilion Gracie at 60 years old with no previous martial arts experience. My thought was to get a good cardio workout while learning some skills. While it's a little intimidating to start martial arts at my age, a friend encouraged me to join this studio and I am so glad I did! ALL the instructors are top notch! They are very patient and give a lot of individual time to you, even in a full class. I've been a student for 3 months now and I already feel like I'm part of a team.......I can't compare this studio to others as I joined after my first week's free trial because they all made me feel welcomed right away. It's intense and demanding and you go home sore almost after every session, but that is exactly what I was looking for! If you are also, you need to check them out!

Our kids, Noah and Alianna, truly respect and enjoy their time at Rilion Gracie. Coach Alan, Coach Grayson, and Coach Andrea have been amazing, and we’re especially thankful to the owner, Andrea, for always being available to answer any questions. The recent updates to the complex have really improved the atmosphere—it looks great!

Top notch school, the real jiu jitsu practiced and taught here. Romulo and Andrea have something very special here. The influence that jiu jitsu (and Professor Rilion Gracie in particular) have on this school and in the kind professionalism on constant display here (humility, respect, and confidence) and it shows in both the way they carry themselves and this outstanding academy and the quality of the instruction here. Highly recommended. P.S.: I should also have mentioned how elevated the technical aspects of the training is here... you can't throw a belt off and not hit a master black belt. Amazing quality teaching.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO MY FIRST CLASS?
