On Brazilian Top Team Texas our coaches are world class black belt instructors and our main aim is to provide you the best training for combat sports!
Definitely a great gym for jiu jitsu and muay thai. Diego and Denise gave me a warm welcome and made me feel like family. If you are looking for a gym this is it. Whether it is self defense or to get in better shape I'd always pick this gym.
I was looking for a martial art for my children to practice that would develop psychomotor skills, make them strong and create self-confidence, ! BTT coaches are attentive and dedicated to teaching the art of Jiu Jitsu.
Amazing place to training, a lot of locations to choose and training during the week, coachs well prepare to instruct kids and adults, better place to training ever!
Been training at BTT for awhile and I love this place, recommend it for everyone! I will for sure be staying here for the rest of my jiu jitsu journey!!!! Coach Diego and coach Igor are the best coaches one could ask for !
a wonderful place to train, very good team who are always ready to work hard🤙
I especially want to mention Professor Diego, who treats his gym like his home and treats his students like family members!
My husband has been a member for over 10 years and recently our kids and I joined, and it’s been an absolutely phenomenal experience for both the kids and adults in our family. The instructors are outstanding, possessing deep expertise in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai, which they impart with great passion and dedication. They excel not only in technical instruction but also in building personal connections, making every class both educational and highly motivating.
For the kids, the classes are a fantastic blend of fun and discipline, focusing on skills like self-defense, respect, and perseverance. The instructors are particularly adept at engaging young learners with age-appropriate drills and games that teach them valuable martial arts techniques while also emphasizing teamwork and sportsmanship.
The adult classes are equally impressive, offering both beginners and experienced martial artists a rigorous yet accommodating training environment. Whether it’s refining techniques, enhancing physical fitness, or learning new skills, the gym provides a supportive community where every member can thrive.
The facility itself is top-notch, and has spacious areas for training. Both safety and hygiene are clearly priorities here, which adds to the comfort of training.
Overall, Brazilian Top Team stands out not just for its high-level martial arts training but for its commitment to fostering a positive community among its members. It’s a place where both kids and adults can grow, learn, and enjoy being part of a vibrant Brazilian Jiu Jitsu family. I highly recommend for anyone interested in starting or continuing their martial arts journey!
BTT in San Antonio is my happy place. The coaches are phenomenal and really care about your development. The students are courteous, fun to train with and never get out of control. The training is tough but the coaches keep it safe. It’s a great place for everyone because it is run by professionals who treat everyone with respect. They truly care and it shows. I look forward to training because of Coach Diego and Coach Denise.
My experience with BTT has been amazing. I started training here a little over a year ago and my only complaint is that I didn’t start sooner. I started because I’ve always wanted to learn jiu jitsu but I’ve gotten much more. In the process I’ve gotten in shape and lost a good amount of weight. All the coaches are great and always go above and beyond to help you learn. Thank you professor Diego and Dennis for giving me the opportunity to train there.
A fantastic place to train in jiu-jitsu, whether you’re focused on self-defense or competition. The kids’ program is particularly impressive, helping young practitioners build valuable skills, discipline, and self-esteem in a fun environment. The staff is excellent, providing supportive instruction and fostering a welcoming atmosphere for all ages. Overall, it’s a great place to learn, grow, and boost confidence!
Really good gym! Very professional with many equipment and a really good team of coaches that support in every aspect pf your life. They have many options for times of
Classes and different locations that helped me to be more flexible on my
Trainings!
As a young woman, I was always reluctant to train and join a combat sports gym because of its intimidating male-dominated popularity. I recently joined this Brazilian Top Team gym here in San Antonio, TX and can’t say enough how happy I am to have found it. I’ve never felt safer, more comfortable and welcome than I do here. Also, I’ve never imagined how much this combat sport would help with my physical and mental health. This is huge for me.
And it’s very impressive how Coach Diego and Coach Denise have created such a wonderful environment where everyone is so kind and respectful towards each other. This gym is contagious with love and respect 😊
It is an excellent place to train MMA! Whether you're looking for just general health and a fun exercise or are serious about competing, the staff is always welcoming, knowledgeable, and so kind. Im so glad I found this place for my teen!!!
This is the best jiu jitsu academy! Profesor Diego and his team are very experienced and they are great teachers. The training partners are amazing and you get the best jiu jitsu training. Denise is great very understanding and they want to help you become the best. I highly recommend this academy from all levels of jiu jitsu this is the place to go!!
Looking for a Brazilian jiu jitsu, muay thai, or self-defence classes? look no further to BTT!! The best martial art school in San Antonio, the owners are loyal and incredible people, and they have the best coaches in the house! Professor Diego and Denise are trained to the best of their ability to train us, which i love the professionalism on their profile! I highly recommend
Such an awesome gym and great community over all! The people are so friendly and very skilled. They treat you like family and care about all their students! 🙌🏻
The training environment at Brazilian Top Team is nothing short of inspiring. The academy offers a diverse range of classes, catering to beginners, intermediate, and advanced practitioners. The atmosphere is supportive, inclusive, and fosters a strong sense of camaraderie among students. Whether you're a complete novice or a seasoned competitor, you will find a welcoming community that encourages growth and pushes you to reach your full potential.
One aspect that truly sets Brazilian Top Team apart is their emphasis on practical application and real-life scenarios. The instructors ensure that techniques taught are not only effective on the mats but also in real-world self-defense situations. This practical approach not only enhances one's skill set but also instills confidence in the application of techniques outside of the academy.

La mejor escuela en San Antonio TX. Fueron muy amables en aceptarme ya que cada año viajo a SAT, ninguna escuela quería darme 1 clase (aún pagando). @diegogamonalbjj es un máster, sus clases son de lo mejor. Tiene mucha paciencia y te explica super bien la técnica, su esposa @eduraes2016 es un amor, me hizo sentir muy bien ya que comenzó a hablarme en español, todo fue muy fácil, también es una experta en BJJ. Está muy equipado, cuentan con tatami, jaula, área de pesas y funcional. Las clases para los niños son lo mejor. Es una excelente opción para entrenar BJJ, Muay Thai o MMA. El lugar es amplio, super limpio, hay regaderas, vestidores, estacionamiento. Muy seguro. Lugar de campeones ya que muchos son profesionales. Si tienen la oportunidad de asistir no lo duden, no se van a arrepentir🥋🥋🥋🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
I came to the area to visit from New York, I wanted to hit a jujitsu class while I was here and reached out to a handful of schools . Brazilian Top Team was the only place to return my call and I was able to jump right in , I was welcomed by everyone and loved the expirence , the quality of instruction was fantastic and would highly recommend this place from beginner to expert . Thanks again 🤙🏻🥋
My daughter is in the kids Muay Thai. She really enjoys it and the coach seems to really care about the children learning,firm but not strict. Very professional.
Brazilian top team is the best place in San Antonio they have all ages all levels best place to train in bjj mma muay thai and strength training the gym is huge and best of all Diego Gamonal is an instructor that shows you step by step and taking the time to show you the guy is awsome
I stopped in here while on military orders, and I was extremely impressed from the start. One of our friends recommended me to train here as I’m an mma fighter who specializes in BJJ. Prof Diego is a great instructor with world class knowledge and skill, and not only that the whole team welcomed me in. Anthony Ivy and his wife were super welcoming, and Anthony is a UFC veteran. Only place in Texas to train, besides the other BTT affiliates of course.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE! We've been members for over 3 years and this was honestly the best decision I've made for my kids. My son and daughter take Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai classes and I've never been less than impressed by the coaching. All of the coaches are great with the kids and they make sure that the techniques are learned correctly. I've recommended several people to this gym and will keep recommending since I'm so happy here. The gym really is like a family and everyone is genuinely nice and friendly from the moment you walk in the doors. Diego, the owner and head coach, truly cares about your experience there and makes sure that you are more than satisfied as a member. We've found a home gym for life!
Great place, great people, amazing jiu jitsu. Whether to compete or just for self defense they have everything you need, it's the definitive definition that defines family.
If I lived in the area this would be my new home! Amazing place with even more amazing people! Dropped in for two days in a row and was greeted with open arms. Felt very comfortable there like I'd been training there for a long time. The place is a one stop shop! They've got a cage and many types of bags for striking. Plus a large mat space with great quality mats. There is a lot of gym equipment as well as locker rooms with showers. I'll be happy to be in the area again so I can train here again thanks for everything guys and Thank you Professor Deigo!
This gym is hands down best Jiu Jitsu Gym in Texas! Our coach Diego Gamonal is renowned world champion! We have many black belts always available for any questions or teaching who have also won world championships. There are beginners, advance, and no gi classes weekly. We also have conditioning classes tought by Melissa Ortega who is amazing! She details each class towards Jiu Jitsu. At the end of each class, we have Acai readily available to cool our body's down and just relax with a delicious snack!
Great place with awesome atmosphere! You feel like you a part of a team and everyone is very welcoming and family friendly. The coaches are very professional and world class athletes. Highly recommended!
I Tried a few schools before settling here The training is world class with multiple world champions and seasoned pro fighters they are super friendly and patient and are all equally passionate about what they teach and patient enough to stay after class to troubleshoot any issues you are having and answer any questions. I cant explain the growth i have experienced here. just a great group of guys and training partners its like a family here.
Btt San Antonio is our second home. It has been the best thing I could have ever done for my daughter is enroll her here. The coaches are awesome they push her, encourage her and build her up. If you are looking for a place to train and a family. This is it. I love it here So much.
I’m a black belt fourth-degree jiu Jutsu, training for more than twenty-six years. Whenever I can visit the Academy of Diego Gamonal. I can guarantee that jiu-jitsu taught there is equal to or better than jiu-jitsu academies in Brazil. I had the opportunity to train with several students of Diego and all presented a great level of jiu-jitsu, both technical and philosophical, showing humility and respect to the opponent! I would certainly recommend this jiu-jitsu academy to all, adults and children! Oss
Professor Diego treats everyone like family. Great environment to train and push yourself beyond what you thought possible. Top academy and nice people! Oss
Great place, great people. The third degree black belt Professor Diego Gamonal, continues to teach and complete all over the world. He is a multiple times world Champion, that makes time for all of his students and parents. If high level Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is what you want, hands down the best in San Antonio. They now have two locations one in San Antonio and one in Schertz, just north of town. All of the coaches are top notch as well.
Kids are a tight knit group and they welcomed my 5yr old with open arms, school teaching him to be a badass.. Love the staff, very friendly , instructors are awesome
Great Family atmosphere and a world class instructor. If you want to learn high level jiu jitsu from multiple world champions this is the place to learn.
A journey to a new you..Mind body and spirit will be challenged and will inspire you to become a better student, teacher, friend, and so much more! Best decision I've made when it came to getting myself into shape.
Thank you Professor Diego! You're doing an outstanding job leading this tremendous team of great competitors here in SA, and thank you for making me feel at home every time I set foot in the gym.
