Top tier Jiu Jitsu acumen, amazing brother/sisterhood environment, and competition ready team! The black and brown belts are aware and attentive to teaching and training.

Solid BJJ Gym! Amazing group of individuals who truly are a Family. Aside from Professor Rinaldo Santos being a world class BJJ Practicioner/Ref and Legend in the sport, he is a world class human who cares deeply about his students. This is reflected in his students from White all the way to Black. This is less of a BJJ Gym and more of a family if you stick around. I defiantly leveled up my Jiu Jitsu and felt at home while I trained here. If you are looking for a Jiu Jitus gym that is tied directly to the roots of the sport, Trains hard, and will take your game to the next level, this is it. I miss rolling with this team every day.

If you want a community for your child, where they are supported to learn who they are you have found the place! This community will show them the true strength inside. This gym has helped mold my child into a strong self assured young man. Professor has a genuine love of the sport and of humans that no of amount of money can buy. My son is a better human because of the skills he gained at Carlson Gracie Central Florida.

A great place for children and adults to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Rinaldo Dos Santos is a 6th Degree Black Belt and he takes pride in teaching most of the classes.

I have stopped in to train here several times when I have been in town, and I love it. Professor Rinaldo is the real deal and fun to learn from, and the class atmosphere is great. I was made to feel welcome immediately, and the training and rolling is always fantastic. If I lived in this area I would definitely want to train full time at Carlson Gracie Central Florida, but for now I'll just be dropping in for some great training with good people when I am in the area. Can't recommend any higher!

I came to visit this school from an overseas trip. One of the things that stood out to me the most out of this BJJ school, is the camaraderie shared among the students. Rinaldo Santos holds his students to a high standard and would definitely return when able.

A hidden gem. Excellent BJJ school for all ages and ability levels—great instruction, family-friendly, and tight knit community. Professor Rinaldo is a 30+ year veteran of the sport and brings a contagious enthusiasm to every training session, whether it’s elementary school kids, 20 year olds preparing for competition or out of shape suburban dads. Highly recommend.

I've been training with Rinaldo Santos for over 8 years and can honestly say he puts his heart and soul into every class and every student. If you're looking for some of the best BJJ in Central Florida you need to train here. He teaches the old school Carlson Gracie Sr. way, pressure, pressure, pressure.

If you’re looking for a high quality BJJ school, this is the place to be. I’ve been training for over 7 years in Ontario, Canada and stopped in while on vacation. Professor Santos and his students were extremely welcoming and made me feel like I was at my home academy. Professor Santos is a direct student of Carlson Gracie. This was easily identified through his exceptional knowledge and attention to detail while he instructed the class I attended. If you’re not familiar with BJJ, having someone who was a direct student of Carlson Gracie is a huge deal. I’m happy to have had the chance to train here and recommend anyone looking into training BJJ to make this your academy.

This is real, legitimate, traditional Brazilian JuJitsu. Rinaldo Santos is passionate and dedicated to teaching BJJ in the same style that he learned, straightforward and effective. The students here are just as passionate, as well as friendly and welcoming of guests and new students. If you are curious about BJJ or just in town looking for a place to drop-in, we hope to see you here.

I enrolled here in 2015 and I haven't looked back. Outstanding BJJ instruction, and a great team environment from one of the best coaches out there.

Rinaldo Santos exemplifies the mastering of Brazilian Jiujitsu. I would recommend his school to anyone looking to be part of a long line of tradition of the original Master Carlson Garcie. His techniques are accurate and his methods are precise, best place I've ever had the opportunity to train on! 100%

One of Winter Garden's best kept secrets. This BJJ school has lots of mat space and the head teacher is none other than Rinaldo Santos, one of the 111 black belts awarded by BJJ Master Carlson Gracie. Professor Rinaldo is a BJJ World Champion, an experienced Vale Tudo fighter, and a active IBJJF and NAGA Coach. Professor Rinaldo teaches most of the classes, and he is great with kids too. All the students are super cool and welcoming, so if you are traveling and you want a place to roll to keep your game on point while on business or vacation then you should stop by. If your not a member of the Academy there is a nominal mat fee to roll but it's worth every penny. Real Jits!
