They have women's only open mat from time to time and I think that is so neat. I haven't seen that in other places. The ratio of women is definitely higher than other dojos. So ladies, if you want to find sparring partners, this is definitely the place. It's super clean. Aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Bathrooms are equipped with showers. That's next level stuff. Parking: can be tough sometimes since it's street parking mostly. But definitely not koreatown level difficult. You can find parking.

I especially love Professor Anthony's morning classes - a great group of students, and Anthony's teaching methodology is fantastic - lots of ramping up from drilling to positional sparring, letting students acclimate at their own pace to using the techniques and concepts in progressively more live situations.

They know you are new and will help guide you with your first steps. It takes a little time to adjust to the routine and what the training is like but you will easily get a rhythm if you show up consistently. They want you to come back and they want you to improve. Also They let you try out the gym before you sign on. They have lots of gym equipment in here as well so there is no need to pay extra for another gym membership just to lift weights. It's like a playground, you can come in and lift weights, you can practice on the bags and get better or you can take the different classes they offer all under one roof.

    I'll let the vids speak for itself lol…read more Uprise was my first gym ever. It's been two years and I've loved every minute of it. This gym changed my life!! There's so much I could say about Pete and this gym- but to keep a long story short- I'm grateful I ended up here of all places. I was 21 and new to LA. I've struggled with weight all my life and wanted to find something to keep in shape. Thought I was going to boxing, ended up in Jiu Jitsu. I was the only girl, which can be scary. But Pete was super welcoming and treated me very equal to the guys and believed in me. I fell in love with the sport and did everything day and night- MMA, muay thai, bjj. Pete believes in people and CARES about his fighters. He's a very genuine and honest person, and his leadership trickles down into the culture. He's very much a life teacher in many ways and loves his analogies lol. I've learned so much about not just fighting, but life and the martial arts ways. Like I said, Pete and this gym has changed my life. 10/10 one of the best things that's ever happened to me!!

    I love this place so much! It is so welcoming and easy to love. The facilities are clean and well…read morekept, the people are knowledgeable and inviting. Dennis, the main coach, is so knowledgeable and welcoming, he really takes the time to understand his students strengths and build upon that, and he also takes the time to find the weaknesses and help patch that up. I like the class sizes because it is the right balance of one on one instruction and variety of training partners. As a woman in grappling it can be hard to find an environment where you feel comfortable and supported- I have definitely found that here, I feel so at ease training with these guys. This means a lot because jiujitsu is so male dominated, that it's hard to find somewhere suitable to train for women, but this place is. The balance between comfort and hard training is perfect here. I love their sense of community, events and outreach. This gym also does an incredible job at getting students competition ready, the medals speak for themselves.

Coaches are fantastic, clean…read morefacilities, modern-looking amenities, supportive training partners, and you'll have fun and look great doing it! They have a partnership with Albino and Preto and their gi is so well made and worth the price. Plus the patches with the logos are cool. Small to medium class sizes so you really feel like you get attention from instructors. I really have nothing bad to say. They also have new promotions going on every month so make sure you send them an email to get on their newsletter and take advantage of that. Os!!!!!

Ricardo and Henrique are phenomenal teachers -- they not only explain techniques clearly and create a supportive learning environment, but they also emphasize real self-defense skills that make you feel safer and more confident in everyday life. The community here is just as incredible. My training partners are welcoming, encouraging, and always willing to help. It's the perfect balance of learning, challenge, and fun. At 42, I never imagined I'd be starting Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, but I'm so glad I did. If you've ever thought about trying it, I can't recommend this academy enough. They offer two free trial classes, which is the perfect way to see for yourself. And to the women out there who might be curious but hesitant -- please come try it! You'll find a safe, respectful, and empowering place to train. I hope to see you on the mat!

The instructors, Professor Ricardo, and his son, Henrique, are top notch, with a depth of knowledge and experience that are unmatched! They are also incredibly kind, welcoming and encouraging. My training partners are also along the mindset of growth and help each other learn. I've been injured at other places, but here, I feel like for someone older, like me, I get the perfect amount of challenges to help me grow and learn. I drive over an hour to train here three times a week because of how great this place is. Take an intro class and you'll see what I mean.

Everyone in the very large class was very well disciplined, polite, helpful and very down to earth This is the telltale signs of being trained by one of the best in the martial arts My daughter and son have both trained in various arts since very young but they had no idea who Dan Inasanto was until the night before I brought them to a class then they were reciting all of Dan's accolades To me in the car ride to the Academy Once they enter the class I expected them to get totally lost because there were several different levels of students in the class , But not only did Guru Dan spend time working with both my children but other students of higher level assisted them and made sure they felt comfortable and fell right into line The class was run masterfully in my opinion, Though we had to depart to the airport the next morning my children asked when we could relocate so that they can train further in the Academy I can go on forever, but my family and I would like to thank Guru Dan and all the students and employees that welcomed my children to class and did such a great job making the greatest martial arts experience for them! And my sincerest apologies for taking so long to get this review written.
