Professor Jones & Shihan Jason Rock and the instructors are fully invested in every student. This isn't a "belt mill" where you're given a new stripe or belt every few months. You have to work for it, which makes earning your belt feel so much better. It's a supportive environment that really pushes you to grow. If you're in the Valrico area and want to build some real discipline and confidence, I'd highly recommend going here.

For the gym itself, it's simple, clean, and in an easily accessible area with plenty of parking. There is plenty of scheduling at both locations (Brandon and Lakeland) with Fabio being the actual instructor for each class and if he isn't, it specifies on his website. The pricing is the cheapest out of all other gyms I have seen and there is no contract. Fabio is incredibly understanding that life gets hard and if you need to take a break or anything else you can always cancel your membership and renew it when you're back. Under no other mentor or coach have I ever seen such a respectful and appreciative community for each other. Every time you show up to a class people welcome you in whether it is your first time there, or your first time back after you took a break. Fabio has changed so many peoples lives, including my own, through what he teaches and the way that he does it.

Fabio is from the original Carlson Gracie school in Sao Paulo and teaches 90% of the classes himself. The kids' classes are always packed with kids rolling very technical and having fun. All of Fabio's classes are technical, fun, and challenging. No school comes close to us in tournament success. Our BJJ works. We've produced A LOT of IBJJF BJJ world champions. Fabio won't even do contracts. You pay month-to-month, If you need to quit, take a break, whatever you just call, and they do it over the phone. It's just him and his wife running the school. They are even more affordable than the other schools, have more mat space, and offer day and night classes. If you just want a black belt without earning it, go elsewhere. There are a lot of bogus bjj schools around here. If you want to be good and know your jits is effective, see Fabio. The first week is free.
