The classes are great for people of all levels of experience and fitness. I had no prior experience with BJJ, however I felt welcomed and the instructors take the time and effort to make sure each and every member is understanding and improving. Most days of the week they have two classes available for adults one at 11am and the other at 7pm. When I was looking for schools I was looking for places that had early morning classes, but unfortunately none of the schools I was interested in the area offered any. Whether you are looking for a new hobby, getting in shape, learning self defense, or whatever your reason may be, I could not recommend this place enough. My child is not yet old enough to attend this academy, but the instructors appear to be great with the kids and make the instruction fun and challenging for them. I look forward for my little one to be old enough to enroll. Overall this place is very welcoming, the instructor's are great, and the facility is clean.

My kids went there for a bit and I had to change gyms. They have good qualities but ultimately I…read morefelt I wasn't getting my money's worth. For kids classes they could go 2x during the week and they had a Saturday class. Often times one of the kids classes would fall near a holiday so the gym would close. Sometimes the gym would close for holidays that really didn't effect the class times. It just didn't feel like we were getting what we paid for. Most of the class was spent doing warm ups and drills. I rarely saw the kids spar. We went to a different gym where we are able to go 5-6 times a week and the kids spar every day. My oldest on his first day was tossed around by the smaller kids which showed how much he wasn't really learning at Ricardo's. Now my kids have become new warriors and can legitimately use self defense a lot better. Hopefully this is just my experience, the teachers are great and I wish them all the best. Thank you.

The academy is clean and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. During the class observation, we noticed they had enough coaches for the students, which was great because it showed the kids were getting good attention and guidance. They also have plenty of chairs for parents to sit and wait comfortably. The walking space was a little small, but it wasn't a big issue. Overall, it was a very nice experience. We're really excited for my son to get started and be part of the program. Looking forward to seeing him learn and grow here!
