In an unfortunate time when many martial arts academies are only in it for the money and sell black belt guarantees (for money not actual student development) it is nice to find an academy that is "the real deal." These guys love what they do and are true purveyors of their art. No nickle and dimeing for this and that; one monthly fee and you train as much as you want. They take the development of their students seriously. Juan, the youth instructor is awesome! Gives persistent positive reinforcement for the kids, yet also quick to correct them when they are doing things wrong. Stan, the director is also great and always exudes a positive and respectful air within the dojo. And if you're wondering about the effectiveness of BJJ? Don't. It's an amazing art. In playful settings, my second grader is tapping out the neighborhood middle schoolers. Go figure. read more

If you are looking for a serious school in wich to train you need to look no further. Here at Renzo Gracie Weston I have found the training to be top notch!! The instructers are fantastic!! The students are wonderfull and it really makes a great family environment. My family have been part of this school for three years or more so yes we are pro Renzo Gracie Weston. We joined after many years of searching for the right school. My family have gained so much. My kids juijitsui is very good (not bragging) thanks to Professor Juan who really takes the time to give kids the special attention they need, but don't take it from me if you really want a great school then you owe to yourself to stop by!!

I have children in all the levels. We are long term happy members. Juan, the children's instructor is both extremely knowledgeable yet patient. He also instinctively knows when to reign the class or a student in without over kill. My children have had to use what was taught in class to defend themselves. I loved it because my kids were able to keep the bullies at bay without causing a broken bone or blooding a face (no angry calls from bully's mom.) My older son has taken classes with Stan and enjoyed them very much too! As Renzo Gracie JJ is growing, more classes are being added. I think I will try Yoga or one of the Kickboxing classes soon. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Renzo Gracie Jiu Jitsu! read more

Naturally the only way that one can rate a Jiu Jitsu school is by training at it, so I'm obviously a student at the school, and therefore, a bit biased. I've been a member of several South Florida martial arts schools, and while I have nothing bad to say about any of them, Renzo Gracie Jiu Jitsu has provided me with a home for my martial arts training. Professor Stan Beck is a very capable instructor. He teaches the art of Jiu Jitsu effectively, keeps his lessons interesting and entertaining, and actually rolls with the students. I would recommend this school to anyone who is interested in truly learning the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. read more

I have been a Police Officer for over 22 Years, I have also been a SWAT Team member for over 13 years and been involved in all different physical training. NOTHING compares to the physical and Mental Training I have received since joining Renzo Gracie Jui Jitsu under Professor Stan Beck!! I am 45 Years Old and in physically better shape then I have ever been, I grapple with partners half my age and twice my size and enjoy every class. This builds great confidence, which makes the more difficult tasks in everyday life, much easier to handle!!! Honestly its not easy but the training pays off tenfold!! read more

I have done martial arts most of my life and I can say they are all good for you any of them is better than sitting at home doing nothing.
