The level of education, the visible respect from everyone towards each other & the sport, as well as just the absolute dedication is a power of its own. Hanshi Rey (the chief instructor) has an impressive amount of knowledge as well as list of achievements. As a professor he is precise and clear in the way he speaks and explains things without ever being condescending. Whether you are just starting out (like me!) or have 10, 20+ years of experience, this is the place for you. If you're not sure whether it's for you, just come for a free trial session. You won't regret it!! Parking is available all throughout the street or in a covered garage around the corner (about a 1 minute walk)!

I wish a NEGATIVE rating was available. Our daughter was a student at this academy for 2 years and…read more9 months. When she started the gym was one of the best in the country for youth training. That did not last long as the focus quickly changed from a true competition gym to more of a cash cow and day care. This gym is the SPIRIT AIRLINES of Jiu Jitsu gyms. Pay for the gear they sell at the gym because you can't wear anything else, pay for belt promotions at $100 a promotion per child, $150 "in-house" tournaments which is only disclosed two weeks prior to the first scheduled tournament, $10 admission per person to watch your child compete at "in-house" tournament, no medals just a cheap red shirt promoting the gym. Training and competition class, "intermediate" to say the least and is an additional $150 a month on top of the $250 for a regular membership - then add privates ranging from $100 to over $200 an hour. Locker room and coaches reek of marijuana. There is no parking, you half to cross a major street at rush hour with your children and again at night after class. You will be told by Vagner that the only way your child can progress and win is via competing and privates. However, Vagner himself does not show up for competitions whether local or not, whether to watch or coach. Jasmine will travel if you buy her a plane ticket and put her up in a hotel and drive her to and from the event with no problem. If you are lucky you will have 1 coach for all the kids and that is if he is not coaching his son at the time. No questioning the training or you will be black listed - isn't YOUR MONEY PAYING FOR A SERVICE?! Coach Adrian will harass your wife via text message stating " to put you on a leash or it won't end well." No cross training or you will be given an ultimatum via text to pick a gym, because they claim to know what's best for YOUR child. Yet, they don't fix the mistakes unless you pay for privates. The staff and owners will claim you are family, and that may be true until the money stops flowing, or you don't do as you're told. Vagner, Jasmine and Adrian will even come over to your house to apologize for an ultimatum given then look your child in the face, apologize to them, claim to love them, only to stab them in the back weeks later when Adrian is being sneaky and getting caught by their student holding privates for free while others pay hundreds and when that 3rd person doesn't show up your child won't be included again. But that behavior is acceptable because the Coach's son has a super fight coming up. Know your child's worth and be careful; it is not what it appears to be from the outside. There are many better options for competitive jiu jitsu in Broward and Dade County than VRMA. If you are looking for EXPENSIVE, intermediate training for your children then this is the place for you.

I came across this Krav Maga studio by accident, not even knowing what it was, and decided to give it a try. It turned out to be an incredible experience. Coaches Rendall, Kim, and Gracie are professional, supportive, and excellent at explaining techniques for all levels. The training is practical, focused on real-world self-defense, and always a great workout. The atmosphere is welcoming and motivating, with a strong sense of community. I highly recommend this studio to anyone looking to build confidence and learn effective self-defense.
