    Best way possible to describe Daimyo: WOW. This academy provides a great atmosphere for all levels of training. From the super out of shape whitebelt to hard-core competitors, they have it all. Coach Brenda Soto, along with her 2nd in command, Coach Vonnie, have built a huge and talented women's program, providing a safe space for women to train. The adults Program, with Coach Manny, Coach Brenda, and so many others, is second to none, with a competition/wrestling class featuring Coach Augie Romero, that leaves you feeling exhausted and at the same time exhilarated at the training you've just gone through. Tiny warriors and kids classes teach respect and focus while keeping it fun and lighthearted. The kickboxing program, led by Blackbelts Coach Cri-Santos and Coach Justin, has been growing quickly, and offers a fun and challenging experience. Seriously, if you are looking for a great place to train, give Daimyo a try. You'll soon find yourself part of the family!

    I’m a purple belt and have trained for five years. I live in Vermont, but every time I visit my parents in Tucson I train here. I’ve explored some other gyms in the area, and though they are also great, there is something special about Daimyo. In particular, their mat space and high skill level are unique. It’s the most spacious gym I’ve ever been to. They can easily accommodate 50 people rolling on the mat at the same time. I remember being really impressed by their number of high level belts at open mat - I counted over ten black belts one time. I’ve honestly never seen this level of skill at any of the dozen plus other gyms I’ve explored. I’m very grateful to Manny and all the folks at Daimyo who are so welcoming when I visit. It seems like a wonderful community to be a part of.

    It's truly an honor to train with all of incredible people at Daimyo BJJ. Everyone is extremely helpful and welcoming. There are classes to fit any schedule and skill level and I highly recommend training here. Coach Manuel Flores and Brenda /all the instructors are unique and nurture students to succeed. 🤙

    I attended an open mat while visiting Tucson for the holidays. I enjoyed training here! The skill level was very high and people were friendly and respectful while rolling. I will definitely return when I come to town in the future.

    Been training for going on 2 weeks at Daimyo BJJ. The coaches are incredible! The fundamentals class on Monday and Wednesday are great! I highly recommend it! The only regret I have is not starting sooner! 10/10
