I'm no karate or jiu-jitsu person, but I visited Gracie Barra to attend an hour long self-defense…read moreclass sponsored by LVMPD. And WOWZA, what an experience! It's right off the 215 and Gibson exit, which makes it super easy to access. I'm currently making my way towards my bachelor's degree in criminal justice at UNLV, on track to graduate next fall, so this class was a perfect opportunity to work with Metro and what to expect when I begin a career in the criminal justice field. Can I just say that I got in a much well needed workout here? Being the big workout nerd I am, this class was extremely useful for me and I learned new moves and techniques to use anytime I'm in danger or when I feel threatened. This was an all-female self defense class, which I truly appreciated. We were introduced to one of the owners of Gracie Barra, Rafaela (I think that's how you spell her name), who guided us step after step to each self-defense workout. Some moves were easy, some moves were a little difficult and confusing than others. Other instructors went around and helped us every step of the way. My fitness levels are at a good standing and I was told by my self-defense partner that I had excellent strength, mostly in my thighs. With the conclusion of the class, everyone that attended was offered one free week of jiu-jitsu classes, plus we all got a goodie bag from LVMPD. I'm returning next week to attend one of these classes and I can't wait! Looking forward to it!

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.

I trained under Coach Dustin for the last 3 years before moving to Illinois, and I can't say enough…read moregood things about him or the academy. The technical instruction is outstanding, whether you're brand new to jiu jitsu or preparing for any level of competition. Safety is always the top priority, but the training is still tough and pushes you to improve every day. What really sets this gym apart is the culture. It truly feels like a family. Coach Dustin invests in the people who invest in their training. He traveled with me to competitions, gave his time outside of normal class hours, and was always willing to help me improve. That level of dedication is hard to find. One thing I always appreciated was that class didn't just end because the clock hit a certain time. If people were still getting rounds in, Coach Dustin would stay until everyone finished unless he genuinely had somewhere to be. It showed how much he cared about giving his students every opportunity to train. I left Las Vegas because of a move, and leaving this academy was the hardest part. I made lifelong friends here and became a much better grappler because of Coach Dustin and everyone at Kuleana/Cobrinha GV. If you're looking for a place that offers world-class instruction, a welcoming environment, and coaches who genuinely care about their students, this is the place.

From day one, the coaches and training partners have been incredibly respectful, attentive, and focused on making sure everyone feels comfortable on the mats, especially us ladies. No weird energy, no ego, just a genuinely supportive environment. What I love most is how the classes are structured. The instructors put the majority of the time into actual jiu-jitsu technique, drilling, and live rolling instead spending half the class running laps or doing endless burpees. You get to learn and improve every single session.
