We loved it so much we have been there ever since! Simgo has such a friendly and down to earth vibe. The coaches made us feel so welcome right away, and we've made a lot of great friendships through the gym. All the coaches are awesome, super knowledgeable, supportive and genuinely invested in helping you grow. Training here has totally changed the way I train.

My son wanted to try Muay Thai kick boxing and enjoys learning from his coaches Josh & Chance. Usually, at the end of training they get to play a game which is always nice & fun for the kids to unwind. He wishes he could go to class 3x a week but unfortunately we have other activities so once a week will do for now. We bought the 20 classes for $250 pass because we can't take full advantage of all the classes in a month yet. His first few days they let him borrow gloves and shin pads which was nice. We started bringing in our own. We never felt pressured to buy any of the merch they sell which is always a plus. They have more than Muay Thai here. It's a great place for kids and adults wanting to try various forms of martial arts or just to work on their strength training.

Great training, good schedule, everyone has been great to work with - my son is a raw beginner at bjj and I'm amazed at how quickly he's learning bjj from Master RC cuz he really is a great teacher! I've done many years of tkd, aikido, karate, bjj, judo, etc. since the 80s, and I think Ricardo Cavalcanti Jiu-Jitsu is the best dojo I've ever been part of - highly recommended!

I was a little apprehensive because my son is autistic. He has trouble focusing and doesn't communicate well. We've tried several places but a majority of the time teachers/ coaches aren't really equipped or patient enough to work with kids on the spectrum. So it was really reassuring when we tried our first class. Master Ricardo is a true professional and master of his craft. He is very patient with my son and is able to meet him in his abilities. It amazes me how he is able to command the class of littles and make it also enjoyable. The other coaches and mini helpers are great too. I would definitely recommend this place to any mamas worried about their special needs kids.

I've been to other Jiu Jitsu academies in Vegas to see where I'd like to make my home academy. I've…read moreeven been to another Cobrinha, so the moment I found out another Cobrinha academy was opening close to my house I had to give it another try because I like the system that is taught at Cobrinha compared to a Gracie or Atos academy. Walking into Cobrinha Henderson you can immediately feel the atmosphere is welcoming and about family, it's also well kept and very clean, you can tell they take pride in their academy. Professor Sam and Professor Gizelle make you feel welcomed and they take their time to talk with you as you walk in even while class is going, I guess that's the benefit of having a Husband and wife black belt duo running an academy. These two just know what they are doing. My kids love being here just as much as I do and I can see their growth just in the 3 weeks this Gym has been opened. I feel like their attention to detail with their teaching and always doing warm ups prior to going over the techniques help keep you grounded and it also forces you to have a good foundation in your Jiu Jitsu game. So in conclusion, if you or your kids or both, need a good academy with great teaching, a family environment, clean facility and just all around great place to be then this is definitely the academy to come and sign up at.

I was looking for a place where both our girls could attend class at the same time Cobrinha fit the bill so our girls did a trial class (13 & 6). Our youngest loved it right away, my oldest though took a week or so to warm up but that's just how she is. Coach Sam and Coach G were very patient, still pushed the girls to try new things all while having fun. After that initial week, my oldest turned to me in the car on the way home and said, "You're right Mom, after I got over my nervousness, I love jiujitsu." If you have teens, you know it's VERY rare to hear you're right about something! I think that statement is a true reflection of Cobrinha Henderson and Coach Sam and Coach G. They're both so knowledgeable, engage the kids and encourage them to try their best. If you're looking for a nurturing and welcoming place to learn jujitsu this is it! They have beginner, intermediate, advanced and adult classes.

If you are looking for a place to train jiu jitsu, look no further. The lineage itself speaks honor and tradition. Nova Uniao Las Vegas has my 10/10 recommendation.
