    I'm so happy we found Novaes Jiu Jitsu Academy for my son. We tried all the sports and nothing was the right fit for him until we tried Jiu Jitsu. He loves it there. He has made good friends and has learned self defense and discipline. It's a commitment so there's room for growth and advancement. The best part is it's super affordable and the coaches are amazing. I definitely recommend checking it out.

    This is no ordinary jujitsu Academy. This is truly a family and a community. Kids are taught with so much kindness, patience, and love. We've had an amazing experience with our very high energy 6-year-old seeing him go from all over the place attention-wise to much more focused. He's learned not only jiu jitsu skills, but more importantly he's learned patience, persistence, and self-confidence.

    If you want to learn the "gentle art" there's no other place to take that first step than at Novaes Jiu Jitsu Academy.

    I own a large service, repair and install company across Los Angeles County, and I raced as a child…read moreand professionally through my teens and twenties. I LOVE COMPETITION and I know business. Losing is a phenomenal motivator to hone your skills. We were told about a "friendly" competition at my children's BJJ gym and traveled over an hour to Inspirit for my daughters 2nd and sons first comp. Inspirit is a very clean gym, and we had a pleasant experience throughout the morning and part of the afternoon. The large, enclosed back area felt safe, allowing my youngest to roam around unsupervised. What I think is absolute nonsense is that my daughter, who just earned her grey belt with a white stripe, was moved from a division of three other kids with the same belt to the division with the highest grey belt. They paired my daughter with the owner's daughter, who, in my opinion, is definitely not a grey belt. My daughter fought, tried, and lost, and THAT'S OK. We're PROUD of her and we know what she needs to work on. But what I'm not proud of is the gym lying about it being a friendly competition and then promoting a far less experienced practitioner so their child could win. That's pretty low. A lady next to me, whom I've never seen before, said, "That wasn't even a fair fight," and the coach from our gym later voiced the same opinion to our professor. Our friends voiced that same opinion. To add insult to injury, our gym professor doesn't enter his kids in these "friendly" tournaments due to ethical concerns. So, is this the kind of sportsmanship, ethics and self defense you want to learn or have your kids learn!?! if it is, you've found your gym. Who calls us from the gym to "check up" and then "thank us for our feedback?" - Some random employee who also tried to take responsibility for making the bracket, that's BAD business and I'd bet the family farm she didn't set the brackets - the owners do. At least I now know you're so ashamed of your decisions, you're unwilling to take responsibility for your actions and willing to throw a 7 year old and an adult under the bus. Here's your "feedback"

    Would recommend Inspirit Jiujitsu to everyone! Started training with them 2.5 years ago and I am…read morecontinually impressed by their professionalism and quality of training. Whether you're a beginner, experienced hobbyist, or looking for high level competition training, Inspirit has a place for you. The academy is beautifully put together and extremely clean. Their professors are not only knowledgeable and caring, but they lead by example, pushing themselves in competition and displaying discipline daily. As a woman and someone who was not familiar with martial arts it took me a while to feel comfortable and everyone was extremely patient and encouraging. I have built amazing friendships and been able to push my limits in a safe and uplifting environment. Along with adult training I have been able to witness the kids program and how much they instill confidence and discipline at an early age, I have watched kids absolutely transform on and off the mats because of the lessons they learn in training. Inspirit is an amazing academy and a blessing to have in this community!

    I will get straight to it IF YOU ARE AN ADULT DO NOT COME HERE, this is a CHILD'S DAYCARE CENTER…read more The instructors are absolutely phenomenal. If you are a beginner AND A CHILD or young teen, this is the place to be. If you are an adult don't waste your time. I would recommend sweet science, black house mma, or hill street boxing in Long Beach. You will not find calculated aggression here, you will be paired with a child wearing a Pablo Escobar shirt that is half your size to hold pads for.... Wow GREAT TRAINING! Also why have literally an entire closet of gear and harp on having to buy your own gear? Yeah we can argue about hygiene. If hygiene is your priority then get rid of the closet that has literally every glove size and shin protector size. KEY POINTS NOT FOR ADULTS NO IRON WILL BE SHARPENED HERE STAFF IS AMAZING!

    I used to take boxing classes in the gym and other places, but I feel like I really learn…read moreself-defense here especially with Krav Maga. Jake is the main instructor for the beginning classes and he is great. Patient, funny, and very experienced. His instructions are clear and he provides helpful feedback. At first, I was uncomfortable because I don't like people touching me, but it's fine since i was always partnered with a woman. The kickboxing classes are great as well. I suggest taking your own gloves if you can. It's an intense cardio workout. As someone who has been harassed and assaulted in the past, I feel so much more confident and stronger now!!
