The coach and his crew members maintain an atmosphere of discipline, humbleness and nothing but love and respect for the art. They always seem eager to pass down the knowledge to all of his studens no matter age, gender or background.
This is a great place for growth—both personal and in the craft of Jiu-Jitsu. After just a few weeks of training, a teammate and I competed and placed 2nd, while the more experienced under his tutelage placed 1st, which speaks volumes about the quality of instruction and support here. Scott's understanding of Jiu-Jitsu is vast and profound, and he has an incredible ability to share that knowledge with all of his students, whether it’s a 5-year-old kid or a 53-year-old man.
The team you get to work with is nothing short of amazing. From lower belts to higher belts, everyone is here to work hard and improve their Jiu-Jitsu. There’s still a long journey ahead for me in this sport, but I feel it in my bones—this is the right place to start.
This place offers a positive environment for learning. I participate in the fundamental class for adults, and my daughter goes to the kids class. Coach Scott is very approachable and patient with the kids and adults. Place is quite big, very clean, and has nice amenities such as showers, drinks for sale and additional mats for stretch and warm up. One of the things that I most like is the camaraderie and respect environment among the students, which has been a buffer on my learning experience and personal growth. Teaching style and methodology from the head coach makes difficult techniques to look easy. I started at this academy on summer 2023 (age 41) and I had learned a lot, had improved physical conditioning, self confidence, and even many medical conditions. If you are living in the area, I recommend you to don't miss this great opportunity and experience.
Beautiful facility! Staff was very friendly and welcoming. It was nice to have the ability to train at such a beautiful gym. Classes were also taught in english, very appreciative to be able to get some rolls in while I was on vacation. Thank you Renzo Gracie Ponce
Companionship: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / Adult Class Format: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / Kids Class Format: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tatami cleanliness: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
What I appreciate about Renzo Gracie Ponce is how every member comes to class with the desire to learn and understand what is being taught. Scott is an excellent coach and the rest of the guys are also excellent guides throughout class.
Once you set foot there, you can feel and see the camaraderie among the members. It's an amazing experience. It doesn't matter if you've never done Jiu Jitsu before, you'll always feel included and everyone will help guide you thru the motions until you get it.
