Binda Jiu Jitsu is an outstanding place to train! Coach Julio and Coach Nil genuinely care about each student’s growth and take immense pride in their practice. The environment is incredibly welcoming, creating a strong sense of community where everyone feels supported. The coaches are always cheering for and uplifting the kids, building their confidence both on and off the mat. Highly recommend Binda for anyone looking to learn jiu-jitsu in a positive and encouraging atmosphere! Please check it out if you’re around the area.
I cannot say enough great things about Binda Jiu Jitsu. My son wanted to try it out and right from the beginning Binda was absolutely wonderful. From answering all of my questions as a parent that I had, to being so welcoming upon our first visit. Everyone at Binda makes you feel like family from the moment you walk in the door. They are all so friendly and truly want to see your child succeed, learn, and enjoy themselves. My son has loved it so much he has now signed up for a full year. If you are considering Jiu Jitsu for yourself or one of your children, you will not be disappointed at Binda!
First of all. Let’s just say it’s never too late to start. I’m 47. (Almost 50 lol). I found this place and I must say ….I’m impressed. The level of training here is top notch. Everyone is super friendly and not afraid to answer any of your questions. Coach Julio is a great coach and knows his stuff. He’s always there to help. He has a great staff.
If you want to get in shape BJJ is it. I’ve done every sport you can think of. And BJJ is the best out there, you’ll learn something valuable on the way, and you’ll meet some good people ,and you’ll get in shape.
Their schedule will accommodate you schedule. There is time slot for everyone. I work midnights and this place is great for me.
Thanks Binda BJJ
I joined about a month ago, and everyone is fantastic to practice and roll with. I'm constantly learning useful reversals/escapes from our concise coaches. Sometimes my favorite part is the iconic rock or rap music playlist on the surround sound system. Stay loose and limber my friends.
Joining Binda Jiu-Jitsu has been an incredible experience. It’s not just a place to learn martial arts – it’s a community where you feel welcomed from day one, no matter your age or fitness level. Walking onto the mat, I was definitely stepping out of my comfort zone, but the coachs and teammates are so supportive that it quickly felt like the right place to be. So, following my two kids on their BJJ journey at Binda was one of the nest decisions I’ve made recently, not only challenges it me physically and mentally in ways I didn’t expect, it also opend up a new way to share a meaningful journey and experience with my kids.Its never too late to try something new and push yourself further. If you’re on the fence, trust me – just go for it. You won’t regret it.
We discovered Binda BJJ a few months ago and I’m SO happy we did. My two boys really liked martial arts but we struggled to find a solid program with an engaged community. From the minute I connected with Coach Nil she was so warm and welcoming. My boys LOVE the classes -the training provides them with a serious workout, a really solid program, an opportunity to connect with lots of kids their ages, and plenty of fun. I see them getting stronger, more focused and more confident every week. Coaches Julio, Nil and their whole team are just awesome. We went to 3 other martial arts studios in the area prior to finding Binda, and there’s just no comparison. Highly, highly recommend!!

As soon as I walked in, I knew I was in the right place.
I was always skeptical about trying to learn Jiu Jitsu, I gave it a try at Binda and I’m now going to my 3rd week. The environment is amazing and they treat the white belts very well. I can’t tell my friends enough about it, I’m enjoying it so much. Thank you Binda for making me fall in love with the sport!
If you are looking for Jiu Jitsu training for your kids this is the perfect place to bring them too! It’s also great for adults as well. They are so good with the kids. The way they talk to them, helps them train, helps them listen, helps them build their confidence, everything overall. I am happy this is the place I choice to bring my daughter.
I enrolled my son in Binda Jui Jitsu. From the first phone call I made and spoke with Coach Nil I knew it was going to be a great fit. She explained about classes and how we could come in for some trial classes. Everyone was so welcoming. My son is enjoying Jui Jitsu very much. All the coaches are exceptional with the kids along with supportive of them. If your child is wanting to try Jui Jitsu I would recommend Binda Jiu Jitsu. You and your child will be in great hands with Coach Julio and Coach Nil along with all the other great coaches.
I have 2 daughters that go there, they both love it the owners are so nice , everyone is friendly there. The coaches do amazing job teaching the children. I highly recommend Binda Jiu Jitsu

Outstanding in every way. Amazing instruction paired with an awesome community of hard working and encouraging individuals.
I started attending Binda’s a few weeks ago and I am very satisfied with their methodology of teaching and training. They do an excellent job bringing beginners into the fold and teaching the fundamentals of the sport with a clear path to learning the correct way. I highly recommend Binda Jiu Jitsu to all who are looking to learn.

No doubt this is the place to go if you want to learn jiu jitsu in the north shore
The community is amazing and I felt welcome from the moment I walked through the doors. The gym is clean and the instructors are incredible and every day I leave learning something new. I definitely recommend BJJ for anyone!
Binda jiu-jitsu has been a great place to learn. Ever since I started I've been getting in better shape and more confident in both jiu-jitsu and all other aspects of my daily life. As a beginner, my fellow classmates have been very welcoming and always willing to help me with learning something new. So far I am really enjoying the beginning of my jiu-jitsu journey
I was told about Binda Jiu Jitsu through a friend knowing that I was looking for a Dojo for my son. From the start Both Coach Julio and Nil have been extremely welcoming. Initially my son (6 yrs) signed up and loved it. The next day I joined (42 yrs) as well and it was the best decision we ever made! First day I didn’t feel isolated as many students approached me, welcomed me, and helped me. Great people, great vibes, and best coaches. 10/10
Started my first week of classes. Staff is friendly and supportive. I went in with no experience and they take the time to work with you one on one to show you the basics while getting started. The more experienced colored belts go out of their way during class to help you with the moves and teach you proper techniques. Everyone makes you feel welcomed and you quickly feel comfortable. The owners maintain a safe environment so no one gets hurt. It definitely feels like a family atmosphere.

an absolutely clean place with great people and a great community but even better instructors if you’re looking for those things then this is the place for you… i can’t get enough!!!
Binda jiu jitsu has changed the lives of my two boys and ultimately the overall vibe in my home. My boys have developmental delays or mood diagnoses.The confidence and desire they show while competing or just in the world has grown thanks to the Binda training. They love being a part of a team and being pushed to better themselves. Highly recommend their style of defense and their particular academy to anyone looking to improve their outlook in the world.
My 7-year-old just started training at Binda Jiu-Jitsu and he absolutely loves it! Coach Julio, Coach Nil and the whole team focus on each student, teaching them skill and discipline. He is learning the fundamentals he needs while still having fun in class. We are so impressed with Coach Binda’s program and the community they have built. We are so happy we have become a part of it!
My son has been going here for a couple of months now. He loves it. The coaches are very welcoming and kind. The gym is clean and there’s plenty of space for viewing if you want to hang out during class.
So happy we decided to give Binda Jiu Jitsu a try! A great place to learn and have fun! Coach Nil & Julio, and peers truly make you feel welcomed. My daughter Kylah loves coming every week. Would definitely recommend.
The studio is very clean. The coaches are extremely helpful and friendly. I took kenpo karate/ Jui Jitsu some years ago. I’ve been to many karate studios where there was an overpowering smell of feet, this was not like that. The coaches are fair and there is no power trips among them. They teach confidence and self respect along with self defense. The honor and respect is amazing. Every kid should join!
My family and I are blessed to be apart of the Binda Jiu Jitsu Team! We enrolled our son about a month ago and couldn’t be happier with our experience so far! We have family members who train at Binda Jiu Jitsu who highly recommended us to them as a great place to train and grow! The coach’s and staff are respectful, extremely polite, professional and understanding! They welcomed us in and were very helpful through the enrollment process, which was very easy, and affordable! My son is learning new techniques each week and is happy to participate in class! The coach’s work close with the students to ensure they’re learning, comfortable and having fun! It’s a blessing to watch my son train in class with his peers with the support of the entire Binda Community! I give Binda Jiu Jitsu 5 Stars for providing an excellent experience and opportunity for my family! Thanks Coach’s!

We’ve been extremely pleased with all things Binda BJJ. The entire Binda team are just amazing genuine people. From the instructors to all the students. Having our daughter join was certainly the best decision we made. If you’re looking for a class act martial arts establishment, you will not go wrong joining Binda.
This place is awesome!!!! Binda jiu Jitsu promotes a positive atmosphere with great instructions that make it fun to learn.you feel welcome the minute you walk through the door. My family loves to train here.

Altamente recomendado, mis hijos (de 6 y 15 años) y mi esposo entrenan ahí y es maravilloso, los couches Julio y Nil son muy profesionales, y como familia estamos muy contentos de estar aquí, es un entrenamiento de alto nivel, todos muy amables y respetuosos, definitivamente recomiendo este lugar.
I first met coach Julio at an outside setting. I expressed my interest and he told me to come check out the classes. From the first class I was treated as if I were on the team for years. Classes are well constructed, and professional level is top notch. Good group of experienced people. My only regret is I did not start 20 years ago. If you are on the fence do not delay.
I live in Rochester-NH, 1 hour from Haverhill. I practiced Jiu-Jitsu at a gym near my house, and my friend invited me to try it out at Julio Binda (Haverhill, MA). In my 1st training I realized that Julio binda is on another level. I mean, another level of community, another level of skill, another level of academy. Definitely, if you live in MA or NH, the number 1 to learn BJJ is Julio binda. If I drive 1 hour just to train every day, it's really worth it. Try it, I can 100% guarantee you, you won't regret it. Júlio is a real fighter, up to date, always with new and different things. a current and true jiu jitsu. the pure brazilian JJ
I just recently joined Binda BJJ and am highly impressed so far. What I see is a tribe of highly professional, talented and knowledgable coaches and staff who are driven to serve their students. It is a welcoming, yet challenging school to students of all ages, sizes and genders.
. The only way to grow is to push yourself outside of your comfort zone. Binda BJJ will do just that; but will also support you in your growth. I feel like I will be a life long student here and look forward to continue to learn, compete, fail and grow under the guidance of head coach Julio Binda and his top notch core of coaches.
As humans we were born to evolve; not exist until we die. If you are looking for a community that will help you evolve; look no further. Come attack a free week like I did and join our tribe 👊 🤙
Coach Nil and Julio created a very welcoming experience for my son and I the moment we walked in their gym. One of the first things I noticed was how respectful all the other kids were in the gym. The atmosphere here is excellent and my son looks forward every week to his classes and working on his skills. Thank you for creating such a positive experience for us!

Meu nome é Daniel Ventura e conheci a academia Binda Jiu-jitsu através de meu grande amigo Vagner. Eu nunca havia entrado em uma academia de artes marciais antes, fui surpreendido pela recepção dos Coaches Júlio Binda e Nill binda, eles são incríveis. A disciplina, o ambiente, a forma que trabalham e todo o time me cativou. Obrigado família Binda.
My daughter and I both train here, and felt extremely welcomed from the moment we stepped into the gym. Coach Julio and coach Nil are both fantastic teachers, and ambassadors of the sport. There’s a great atmosphere in the gym, everyone is friendly and eager to share their knowledge. I’d highly recommend checking this gym out!

Eles são extremamente cuidadosos e super profissionais! Meu Filho adora as aulas e fica ansioso pra chegar o dia da aula! E eu como mãe adoro pq é uma ótima atividade física.
When it comes to jujitsu, Binda’s Brazilian jujitsu is the only place to go! Julio and Nil are kind and gracious creating a welcoming atmosphere for everyone. They lead by example and encourage hard work, honor , and respect. Their coaching style is hands on and every student is well attended to and receives personal attention during the class. They teach and demonstrate various techniques with precision and excellence. My son has been attending only a short time and he has grown both physically and in confidence, he loves going and we couldn’t be happier.
As someone new to this sport, joining this gym has been a fantastic experience! Professor does a great job teaching the fundamentals and more advanced techniques, and the entire team is helpful and fun to be around. Great time so far.
Binda JJ is top notch!! Julio and Nil are so welcoming and bring a level of professionalism that is rarely seen nowadays. They make accommodations and adjustments depending on ability level and provide a thorough hands on approach with skill and drill work suitable for all levels. Awesome people!! Awesome community!! Go join Binda JJ for an experience like no other!!!
Over the years, I have studied Karate, Kickboxing and Tae-Kwon-Do. Jiu Jitsu is an art everyone should not only study as a self defense mechanism but as a way of life. Professor Julio and his team of Instructors philosophize that way of life through his teachings. Professor Julio's passion for BJJ is something to be desired. As his student, I understand the pledge and what it will take for the journey of becoming an astute BJJ expert. One day, I hope to stand as his equal. Binda Jiu Jitsu is an excellent school. The hardest step for most is walking in the door. Once you do that, you'll see your journey unfold before you. Are you ready to walk the path?
Been training at Binda Jiu Jitsu school for a few weeks. As a blue belt transferring from another school, I have loved the experience so far. Great atmosphere and great technique 👍🏻
My 8 year old daughter does Jiu Jitsu here and the staff is amazing! They’re kind and disciplined, exactly what my daughter needs. Julio, Nil, and the other coaches take the extra time to help her with things she may not understand and give her extra explanations, she’s new so it’s nice she doesn’t feel discouraged. Coach Eric has taken the time to do really make sure she in confident and learns the moves while she practices. He’s also cheering for her and making her feel like she’s doing phenomenal. I went from a Kid who was nervous and skeptical if she’d like it, a kid who often tries to quit things within a week to a kid who walks out of every class smiling and telling me she loves it. Thanks for helping her love something!

These classes have been a huge benefit to my physical and mental well being. A very positive and encouraging atmosphere! Highly recommended!
We were first introduced to Binda Jiu Jitsu in January 2020. Our two children, aged 4 and 7, instantly loved training at the school. Coach Julio has created a program where students are able to understand and apply the techniques taught. Coach Nil is especially amazing working with the younger students and keeping them focused throughout the class. All of the instructors are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The students are comfortable working with any of them. The level of commitment and passion for the sport is apparent and contagious.
Coming from a different style of martial arts previously, our children found Binda Jiu Jitsu far more exciting and engaging. They beg to attend class more frequently throughout the week and even ask to practice at home on the days we don’t have class. As a parent I’m overjoyed that my children are so focused and invested in learning jiu jitsu rather than spending their free time on electronics. We cannot say enough about our incredible experience with Binda Jiu Jitsu. Coach Julio and Coach Nil make it a priority to connect with each and every student and family, which we feel is at the heart of their successful business.

Great staff and could not ask for a better environment for my 6yr old son. Very happy we joined the Binda Family.
The Best BJJ In the Area from top to bottom. Coach Julio Binda is a legit Brazilian Black Belt with great instruction and his wife is so sweet. There kids program is 2nd to none and that can be seen in local competitions. Most of the Adults students are very technical. Come try a class and experience a great family environment.
My daughter and I have been training at Binda for over a year now. I have to say from the very beginning until current day, there has always been a culture of acceptance and positivity. Coach Julio and Coach Nil along with the other coaches do a phenomenal job with the children’s program. My daughter has learned so much and is always looking forward to her next class.
As an adult I love training here. I feel I have great training partners and an atmosphere which makes it very easy to learn and immediately apply your lessons. I strongly recommend taking advantage of the free introductory classes...you will not regret it.
We absolutely love everything about Binda jiu jitsu! We were welcomed into the Binda family right away. My daughter loves it! Nil and Julio are incredible coaches!! I’m so grateful to have found them. Can’t imagine her learning anywhere else. Highly recommend anyone searching for classes to come here. You WON’T regret it!!!!

Excellent team and phenomenal training and exercise.
Would refer Binda to anyone I know.
I have attended Julio Binda BJJ since 2015. They have great classes. Everyone is super friendly. And the coaches are really helpful. I encourage everyone to join and have their own experience.
Julio makes sure you understand the curriculum that he is teaching. He identifies your weakness and turns them into strengths. He pushes you to the max, but also knows when you have nothing left in the tank to ease up. It’s a wonderful academy for family and great for kids. I look forward to my classes every week. If your looking to get into shape this is the place.

Great place to train and learn bjj for all levels! A lot of class offerings and everyone is very friendly.
I had been wanting to take Jiu Jitsu for sometime, after asking around several people recommended Binda Jiu Jitsu. From the moment you call and speak with them on the phone to the moment you walk into the academy you feel welcomed. Coach Julio and Nil truly make you feel like a member of their Jiu Jitsu family and I couldn't be happier with my decision. My only regret is I didn't join sooner. If you are thinking of trying "the gentle art" you could not ask for a more welcoming place, I can promise you won't regret it, I know I don't.
I searched for a few years to find a program/sport that would provide my boys with a mixture of cardio, focus, and energy release. We tried everything. I asked around a lot. So on a whim, on a Sunday, I placed a call. Nil got back to me same day and told me to bring my boys down for the first week to try it out. No expectations, no pressure, just come down and see how it goes. I observed the instruction the first week. We signed up immediately. The growth I have seen in my children has been worth it. They are challenged every time they attend a class. Community is the word that best describes this program. I am excited to see where my boys go with this. I hope this is a lifelong journey for them. I plan on joining too. We are grateful to have the Binda family in our lives.
If your looking to practice BJJ this is the place! Instructor is extremely professional and respectful and training facility is immaculate! Everyone is always helpful and patient. If you are unsure of starting or hesitant don’t be, this place will help you and build your confidence and train you to be the best!

I love this school if you are looking to learn great jiu-jitsu in a family-oriented location look no further.
I have been with Binda Jiu Jitsu for slightly under a month now, and I have had a great experience so far. It is run professionally, while also providing a fun and competitive atmosphere. The Binda owners and coaches are all very knowledgeable and eager to help you learn. I'd recommend trying out their 1 week free trial if you're interested.
They are the best here. My son is 13 and has done BJJ in other places. This place is alot more classic in their teaching style which works great for my son. The coaches here are very respectful ,helpful and a great support. I highly recommend this place.
Since starting Binda Jiu Jitsu it has been a new and exciting journey. As a college athlete with no prior background in Jiu Jitsu the workouts and training are up-tempo. The instructors are very nice and respectful no matter what skill level someone is. Everyone is there to get better and it's a lot of fun in the process.
I have been doing BJJ for a few months and I absolutely love training at Binda! Julio is a very knowledgeable coach who uses a great method for teaching his students. He will spend a week working on a specific guard/ position, and every day in fundamentals we learn a different sweep or submission in said position, which is a easy and great way to become familiar with learning new techniques. Julio also brings in other high level belts to help him demonstrate techniques as well as coach us while we are learning.
I also feel a lot of people are hesitant to join BJJ clubs because they feel as though they will be roughed up by the other students, that is not the case here. The other students, and especially the higher belts, will understand if you are new to BJJ or grappling all together and let you set the pace when rolling. This allows you to practice techniques with resistance while also doing so in a comfortable manner without the risk of being injured or beat up.
Overall it is a very accepting and friendly environment that is easy to make friends in as well as effectively learn BJJ. If you have any interest in BJJ at all, they offer a free week trial to any prospective members. I highly recommend and love training at Binda!
We signed up our 9 year old son and he absolutely loves it. I was so impressed with coaches and the family friendly atmosphere of the gym I decided to try it out for myself and it’s been great! Everyone has been so welcoming and go out of their way to help you improve. I highly recommend Binda Brazilian jiu-jitsu for anyone looking to improve their body, mind and be a part of a great community.
I started my search for a Jiu Jitsu gym just when Covid-19 had all gyms shut down. Julio Binda was mentioned many times when asking other practitioners for recommendations for a gym close to home.
I reached out through facebook and Nil Binda kept in contact with me, keeping me informed of their reopening. I attended my first class and was very impressed.
Julio's students were respectful and disciplined. In one class I could recognize Julio's great leadership skills and his ability to adapt to the level of the students when coaching them individually. After just one class I felt I wanted to be part of their team.
I have been able to go a few nights a week for over a month now and I am grateful every time I have the opportunity to roll with him. His students are a great reflection of his knowledge of the art and his ability to pass that knowledge on to others.
I am an amputee and I have felt embraced by the Binda owners, coaches and teammates! I regret not joining it sooner but I know this will be something I will do for a very long time! I 100% recommend trying out Brazilian Jiu Jitsu here, they have classes everyday to fit busy schedules and they make you feel comfortable learning! Thank you Nil and Julio for everything!!

Excellent coaching, and a great group of people who work with you to help everyone get better
Jiu jitsu is a great sport. I am so glad I started with Binda. It is the best gym with amazing coaches who want to see you grow and develop in the sport!
I have been wanting to try BJJ for some time now. I had taken traditional martial arts for many years, but nothing can compare to the Coaches and students @Binda BJJ. The training, people and gym are excellent. You will not find another like it around. If you need more discipline, motivation, and a great workout look no further. “Discipline=Freedom”
Highly recommend this BJJ school. Julio Binda is a high level black-belt competitor and a dedicated teacher, multiple classes are available 7 days a week for adults and kids, in a very clean and welcoming gym. Binda BJJ has a lot of practitioners of all levels, ages both male and females (which is always a good sign). Practice is very well structured and organized. A strong emphasis is made on teaching with a curriculum in place, the coach will guide you through the techniques and correct your errors. They also offer online videos to help you study at home or on the road. Rolling is done in a safe environment with welcoming students, higher belts guiding and advising you, allowing improvement while preventing injuries.
I could not love this place more! BJJ is an amazing workout and life skill, and Binda BJJ in particular creates the most welcoming community. It makes it easy to get in exercise and important life experience, because you look forward to going to class every day and seeing all the amazing people you're bonding with. Highly recommend!
I started training at Binda Jiu Jitsu 5 months ago, and it's been a great experience! Julio and Nil have created a wonderful, motivating environment that is very welcoming. Their group of coaches help to foster the comforting family atmosphere, making it an easy decision to keep showing up. The knowledge-base of the instructors is top-notch!
The team of coaches and students is welcoming the moment you walk in the door. They encourage you to work at your skill level, yet challenge you to challenge yourself. A completely unexpected benefit is that it's FUN!
Jiu jitsu is a great family activity, and is a great activity for kids, instilling concepts of participation, cooperation, discipline, perseverance, courtesy, integrity and teamwork.
Whether you're looking for an awesome workout, trying to get in shape, or just focused on learning jiu jitsu, Binda Jiu Jitsu is well worth the visit, you won't be disappointed.
I had been a little apprehensive about joining, but as I recently started I've been enjoying it immensely. My husband and daughter had joined close to six years ago and they love it, and now we train as a whole family. I have a few injuries but physical fitness is a passion of mine, and I am loving jiujitsu! I felt accepted into their "family" and the energy is great on and off the mat. Everyone has been so supportive!
Binda BJJ is a great gym. Everyone is super nice, the workouts are fantastic, and the jiu-jitsu is technical and competitive. I would definitely recommend!
It has been a little over a month that I have been part of the Binda Jiu Jitsu team and it has been great! Technical, challenging and fun. The Coaches have a way of challenging you towards excellence and encouraging a team atmosphere . Administratively the school is professional and organized. No matter what your age is if you are interested in BJJ Binda is a great place for the journey.
Place is awesome. Friendly and safe environment to learn and master the art of jiu jitsu. Classes are 7 days a week with a morning and Night class which makes it convenient to train at whatever time works best and u can attend as many classes as you want I’m about a month in and highly recommend this gym to all ages and sizes come get on the mats with a free week trial no strings attached! - Luke
i Can’t imagine a better place for my 5 year old son to learn jujitsu. It’s helped build his confidence and he has so much fun going, the instructors and family are wonderful ! Plus it’s incredibly clean which is very important to me. All around I am completely satisfied and 100% recommend Binda!
Whether you are an adult or youth , this is The place.
Tremendous attention to detail in training and direction.
School is extremely clean and organized.
Family oriented. Kids will feel safe to learn and have fun.
Coaches are well trained and ready to help you reach your goals.
It is an honor to have Julio as a Zenith Ambassador and Nil as Zenith’s general manager.
Highly recommend it!
I’ve been going for almost 3 weeks now and it’s been an amazing experience.
If you come in with zero experience they will ease you into the sport. You can go at your own pace. The coaches are very supportive and you can ask them anything. Best of all everyone who goes there has a very family mentality. Everybody greats everybody start of class.
10/10 would recommend!
My Son has recently started at Binda Jiu Jitsu. Since the very 1st day we have felt so welcomed and excited. He is learning confidence, making friends and having a great time. All the coaches are warm, encouraging and are great role models to all of the kids. I am so looking forward to watching him grow and develop at Binda Jiu Jitsu.
My 5 year old daughter has been training at Binda Jiu Jitsu for almost 2 months now. We both absolutely love it!! The coaches are so welcoming, upbeat and always have a smile on their face. They take the time to talk to all the kids as well as the parents. When my daughter first started she was very shy as this was foreign territory for her. Coach Nil took time out to work with her one on one to make her feel more comfortable. This has made a huge impact on my daughter and got her to participate more and more every class. This type of stuff is not typical anywhere. They have a great understanding for kids and are very patient as well as caring. My daughter just earned her first stripe on her belt. She has not stopped talking about it all day. This has helped her confidence tremendously!! The curriculum is well planned out and all the coaches are knowledgeable in the art of BJJ! They make sure to add fun with games to break up the teachings of technique. This allows the kids to enjoy what they are learning a little more. If you have kids or want to train in BJJ this is the place to go!!!!
More than just a place to learn Jit Jitsu. The Binda's are kind, loving and caring people who will treat you like family. You automatically feel a sense of community and acceptance. I highly recommend Binda BJJ for any child looking for something new. So happy my son has joined the community.
I walked into Binda with no martial arts training, after a couple months I see physical and mental improvement week after week. I owe everything to the knowledgable coaches and supportive teammates. Get here and train you won't regret it, you can only get better!

We couldn’t be happier at Binda Jiu Jitsu! 😀 Our 2 children (girl age 8 and boy age 13) attend there and they absolutely love it. The owners are wonderful, very friendly and kind hearted. They have created a studio with a very positive and family-like atmosphere. A huge thank you to Coach Julio and Coach Nil.
Having attended other BJJ gyms in NY and MA, I can confidently say the structure and experience of the Binda team is unrivaled. The meticulous instruction and coaching by the Binda team has helped me grow more confident in my training and helped my abilities grow significantly. Coach Julio and Nil provide a unique welcoming environment and they (and the rest of the team) genuinely make you feel like you’re part of a family. Im very lucky to have been able to join and highly recommend for anyone interested in learning Brazilian jiu jitzu!
This place is the best!! From the moment we walked into Binda BJJ it felt right. Julio and Nil have a passion for this sport that exceeds most others. Sharing their knowledge and love for this growing sport is the priority in this school.The kids program has surpassed anything that I would expect for my son Mason.
It has grown his confidence, self reliance and strength in all aspects of his life and it shows everyday. The details that the coaches use and the time they dedicate to each individual is incredible. They are understanding that everyone learns in a different way and they are always adapting their program to reflect this. A family friendly environment and absolutely the best decision I have made as a parent that needed to choose a sport for my son to grow with. This will be something that excels him through life. A good foundation sets you up for great success and I am happy to say that Binda Bjj is that foundation for our family.
May greatness always bless you and your continued growth in this sport and life.
We are Team Binda for life!
We have been sending our son to Julio Binda BJJ for two years, starting when he was 4. This is not just BJJ, this is a big family of people who love jiu jitsu. My son has gone from being very shy around adults and peers, to a strong and confident little man. Plus he is learning self-defense, respect, and making so many wonderful friends. Both the kids and adults programs are great and the owners are so committed. I recommend it all the time to people and haven't heard a single complaint.
I felt like I lost my inner fight. I just wasn't firing on all cylinders in my life and needed a jump start. I always had an interest in BJJ. However, I do not enjoy tight spaces and I sure do not like the thought of being choked out. One day I just decided to walk in the door and get some information. I was greeted by Julio and Nil Binda with a smile. I was then introduced to the way they do things and offered a free week to try it out at my pace. Besides the amazing work out I have been very pleased with the mental and physical challenge that BJJ offers. The respect that is shared and the humble attitude of everyone continues to draw me in each day. The coaches are amazing and the friendships are even better. Needless to say I am firing on all cylinders again and would recommend Binda BJJ to anyone who is considering. See you there!
Extremely comfortable environment with a good mix of beginners and advanced martial artists. As a beginner, I've noticed the sport is very challenging but it doesn't take long to appreciate the physical and cognitive benefits. Julio is highly skilled not only at BJJ but as an instructor, keeping the class focused and fun. The culture he's built encourages progress but there are no egos and everyone is very respectful no matter what your rank is. I feel very lucky to have found this place and look forward to advancing.
If you're looking to embark on a new journey, this is THE studio to join. Right from the start you're genuinely welcomed, like a home away from home. On top of that, the specialized knowledge & competency brought to you by the school sets the bar. Highly Recommend.
I have been training here for a couple of months now. They have a very warm and welcoming environment here for anyone starting there. All of the coaches are very helpful and make sure you really understand what they are teaching. I highly recommend anyone who wants to train in BJJ to come to this gym!
