My son has been attending BJJ for the last four years with Professor Barrios and his staff. We appreciate the warm, directive and fun teaching style. In addition, our family has been welcomed by a sense of community - so much that my husband and I have also started our BJJ practice. Moreover, the owners are approachable and truly focus on the need and response of the community making this place truly special!

I met Sensei Barrios in 2018 and have trained with him since then. His academy is very welcoming and family-oriented. He’s a very skilled coach with strong technical knowledge and a real passion for teaching. The academy has great programs for both kids and adults, focused on discipline, respect, and real progress. I highly recommend it.

I was traveling for work, and needed to move my body. Signed up for two drop-in classes with Daniel Ortiz. Great instruction and amazing facility! I’ll definitely be back.

Professor Barrios and his team are great educators and trainers. I started training BJJ a few months ago and am loving it. The boot camps are a great supplement to my training. My son attends the kids BJJ and he is loving it as well (sometimes I get to help coach and I learn with the kids). I appreciate the concepts and drilling of this martial art more than just using athleticism and brute strength. Highly recommend to families looking to train martial arts together.
