Awesome environment and great instructors. Really good with kids
We have been part of the Lobo Team Jiu Jitsu family for several years, and I can't express enough how wonderful the experience has been for our family. All of my children train here, and they have grown immensely strong, disciplined, and proficient in Jiu Jitsu under the care of the exceptional and experienced Professor Fred. The atmosphere at the studio is truly one of a kind. It feels like a second home where everyone supports and encourages each other. We're there five days a week, and the sense of community and family is palpable, making it a perfect environment for both children and adults to thrive. Professor Fred's dedication to each student's growth is remarkable. They not only teach BJJ techniques but also instill important values like respect, perseverance, and self-discipline. It's evident that he genuinely cares about the well-being and development of each student. Seeing the positive impact it had on my children, I decided to start training Jiu Jitsu there myself. It has been an incredible journey, and I have witnessed firsthand the benefits of training in this nurturing and supportive environment. If you're looking for a place where your family can grow stronger together, both physically and mentally, Lobo Team Jiu Jitsu is the perfect choice. We couldn't be happier with our experience here and look forward to many more years of training and growth.
We love Lobo! The instructors are so great with the kids and keep them learning and growing in their skills and confidence. Highly recommend for kids of all ages!
We are very happy with Fred and all the instructors at Lobo Jui Jitsu. Our son had his 1st competition and the coaches were extremely supportive. They always put thier students first.
My son absolutely loves Lobo Jitsu! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and supportive. The instructors are incredibly skilled, balancing discipline with encouragement to bring out the best in every student. My son has not only gained confidence but also learned valuable skills in focus, and teamwork. It’s clear they truly care about their students’ progress and well-being. We’re grateful to have found such a fantastic environment for him to grow both physically and mentally. Highly recommended for anyone interested in quality martial arts training!
Great team atmosphere, extremely knowledgeable professor, and the safest gym I’ve been to. I couldn’t recommend more.
My son has been attending Lobo Jiu Jitsu for 1.5 years, and I cannot speak highly enough of the incredible experience he’s had here. From the very beginning, the environment at Lobo Jiu Jitsu has been welcoming, supportive, and truly inspiring. Professors Fred and Brucca are exceptional instructors who not only possess an immense wealth of knowledge and skill in Jiu Jitsu but also have a remarkable ability to connect with their students. They create a learning environment that is both challenging and nurturing, pushing Hunter to grow and improve while also making sure he feels valued and supported every step of the way. Under their guidance, my son’s confidence, discipline, and physical fitness have all grown significantly. He looks forward to each class, eager to learn new techniques and refine his skills. The sense of camaraderie and community at Lobo Jiu Jitsu is something truly special, and I’m grateful for the positive impact it has had on my son. If you’re looking for a Jiu Jitsu academy that combines top-notch instruction with a strong sense of community and personal growth, I highly recommend Lobo Jiu Jitsu. Professors Fred and Brucca are outstanding, and I’m confident that Hunter will continue to thrive here for years to come.
My 5yr old daughter and myself come here for classes and we love it. The owner and main instructor is very patient and helps teach in an encouraging and detail oriented way. Family environment, I highly recommend!
I am leaving my review 18 months after my son and I joined the Lobo team. During this time, I saw how much stronger and more confident my son became. Having never practiced jiu-jitsu before, my son now competes. Thank you, Professor Fred, who opened the world of jiu-jitsu to me and my son. Regarding the club, it is worth noting its convenient location and convenient schedule. The club is open almost every day. If I don’t have time to come to training during the day, then I can do it either in the morning or in the evening.
Great place to train ! Good and friendly Instructor, very competitive team
"Lobo's Jiu-Jitsu Academy is nothing short of exceptional. From the moment you step onto the mats, you're enveloped in an atmosphere of dedication, support, and expertise. Professor Fred's passion for Jiu-Jitsu is contagious, as he effortlessly combines technical prowess with a genuine care for each student's progress. The curriculum is structured yet flexible, catering to beginners and seasoned practitioners alike. What sets this academy apart is the sense of community; Fred fosters a culture of respect and camaraderie that makes every class feel like coming home. Whether you're looking to hone your skills, build confidence, or simply embark on a journey of self-discovery, Lobo's Academy is the place to be. Highly recommended!Real Brazilian Jiu Jitsu"
Amazing people. Amazing teachers. Truly, a life-changing journey. If you are thinking about it - try it.
In visiting the Lobojiu-jitsu gym several times to watch the training sessions for my granddaughter, I saw a dedicated staff that gave individual attention to all students paying particular attention to the new kids, the ones who needed it the most. This organization is friendly, and patient in their commitment to their clientele. Highly recommend.
Amazing team of professionals! Highly recommend!
I have watched both my daughter and granddaughter train at Lobo Jiu Jitsu. There is a sense of community at this gym. Professor Fred and the other instructors are dedicated 100% to Jiu Jitsu and supportive of each student regardless of age, gender or experience. A wonderful gym.
Awesome gym to train/learn Brazilian Jiu jitsu. Excellent TWO black belt instructors and a clean gym. Highly recommend, also good rolls!
I've been training at Lobo for quite some time now. The instructors come from a Gracie background. Fred from Brazil is the lead instructor and is an amazing teacher. All the instructors are very patient, eager to teach, and explain everything very clearly. The atmosphere in the school makes it a place that I look forward to going to class. I highly recommend the Lobo school if you are interested in learning BJJ in friendly environment with enthusiastic teachers
Fred is the best, great lessons, great people 10/10 recommend

A melhor academia de Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! Professor Fred, é nota 1000.
Amazing technique and tough rounds!!
Fred & Brucca are the best instructors. Our four year old, who needed a lot of attention and help, was assisted by Fred and Brucca. Super grateful for these instructors! Now our boy is sparring and participating in every exercise. Love it.
Clean facility. With a very caring and passionate teacher. Fred lives and breathes jiu jitsu.
I have trained for years with them and could not expect more from a jiujitsu gym. They have top tier training and have great, supportive team atmosphere and have a great place to build discipline. A great place to lose weight, learn to defend yourself, and socialize with people trying to better themselves.
I started jiu-jítsu about 1 year and a half ago and it was the best decision I’ve made.People who train there are incredible friendly and I feel like I’m improving really fast. I call them my jiu-jítsu family and we are like a family. Not to mention the facility is very clean and very convenient with clean showers.
Best Jiu Jitsu gym in the area! Everyone is super friendly and professional. Highly recommend it!
My wife and two daughters started first, and they had such a good experience, my son and I have since joined, as well. Professor Fred is tremendous and creates a safe, respectful environment for everyone. We work hard and have fun - very grateful we discovered our jiu jitsu family here!
I have tried multiple gyms over the years, but this one is hands down the best. The professors are very knowledgeable and approachable. The other students are all friendly. It is a great atmosphere to grow and become not only a better BJJ practitioner but a better person overall. This place is great, and if you don't believe this review then come in and see for yourself!
I have been attending for the last 5 months and it’s been a great experience. I have wrestled for over 20 years and I am glad I came to his gym. The professors are great to work with and have tremendous knowledge about bjj. Everyone who attends is respectful and friendly. This is a place for beginners all the way up to experienced bjj’s. If you are thinking about trying it out I would recommend this gym.
Great people who are helpful and the instructors are polite and friendly, not to mention clean bathrooms and changing areas I highly recommend Lobo jiu jitsu!
Great experience! Well organized and very friendly people, I love training here.
Started BJJ with a buddy and came here to try it out. Love the staff and the location. Great workout!
I certainly recommend BJJ for every parent who wants a kid with a strong mind and disciplined. And this gym Lobo Team is a perfect place with a safe environment and great professors.
My son loves Jiu jtsu classes at lobo Jiu jtsu.they have great professors !
This is a great place to learn jiujitsu as well as a great place to make new friends. I moved to the area about 2 years ago not knowing anyone and the people who I met at this gym are literally my best friends now. This is also a family friendly place. I always bring my 3 year old daughter on the weekend trainings and everyone is very nice about it. There are other kids from time to time and they play together while the parents train.
My son trains at Lobo Jiu-Jitsu since February and he really loves practicing this martial art. Every day, he’s learning to be more confident, disciplined, and how to defend himself if necessary. Professor Fred and Professor Brucca are extremely talented and know how to teach kids at all ages. I really recommend their gym.
I have two boys enrolled in the program and highly recommend this school to any parent looking to enroll their children in a martial arts program. The professors and coaches possess a deep knowledge of jiu jitsu and skillfully instruct and demonstrate the techniques to students of all ages and skill levels.
Very nice gym, sensei Fred knows a lot of Brazilian jiu Jitsu! OSS
The best place to train Jiu Jitsu in the area, for sure.
Been training at Lobo for quite some time now and been doing Jiu Jitsu several years and have to say its top notch jiu jitsu. You'll learn old school jiu jitsu,new school jiu jitsu, self defense and sport jiu jitsu. I found my home the first day I walked in. Great instructors and great teammates!
Been a student of Fred for 2.5 years now. Stoked that he opened his own gym. I could go on and on about the atmosphere there and the people and what not but why read about it when you can just walk in and check it out for yourself for free.
Amazing Jiu Jitsu gym. Great family place.
Lobo Team jiujitsu is a wonderful gym with great instructors! They have become like a second family. There is a nice mix of male and females as well as different belt levels. Classes are both physically and mentally challenging. It’s been incredible to learn a new skill at 38! I can bring my small kids with me to class where they are able to play in a small play area! That has made getting to class so much easier. I definitely recommend Lobo Team jiujitsu to anyone!
Best BBJ training in the area. Training for all levels and desires. If you're looking for a great workout, this is the place. If you're learning BBJ for self defense, this is the place. If you have an interest in competing in competition, this is the place. Professor Fred is an amazing teacher. Lobo also has some of the best coaches. Always helping me learn the technique even stayed late a few times to help. Training partners are top tier here as well. No one has an ego & always willing to work with you. There is no where else I'd rather train. These guys & girls have become family.
I started training under professor Fred around a year ago. In the past year, I have obtained a great group of friends, learned a new sport, but most importantly… I have seen what the power of a strong leader can do for a group of people. Lobo jiu jitsu lead by Professor Fred has shown me, no matter your skill level, career, history… success is possible. Looking forward to many more years at this gym and professor.
Great place to train. Professor Fred is a very knowledgeable and professional instructor. Class sizes are ideal for learning and all the instructors are very patient.
Lobo jiu jitsu is an excellent school. My children and I have been training there for about a year and a half and love it. It is very much a family atmosphere that keeps people coming back. Professor Fred is an excellent teacher and brings a ton of experience.
Here at Lobo Jiu-jitsu Professor Fred teaches both self defense & sport jiujitsu so he is able to satisfy everyone. He has a great adult class with great training partners who are interested in you learning and growing in jiujitsu. He has a great woman's & kid's program and alot of the woman are high level competitors, and the kids have fun learning in an environment where they can compete when their ready to test themselves. And the kids that have competed did very well too. Please stop in and watch a class. Come early or stay after class and ask him any questions or concerns u may want to address.
I look forward to everyday I get to train at Lobo Jiu Jitsu. This gym checks all the boxes to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu properly and efficiently. Professor Fred has spent over 2 decades of his life in Brazil training with a dream to open his own gym. His dedication to this martial art is reflective in his teaching. I really like the amount of classes that are available everyday for all levels of jiu jitsu. Highly recommend!
I have been training at Lobo Jiu-Jitsu for 1.5 years. It is a fantastic school. It is welcoming for all skill levels. Classes are fun and the atmosphere is great. Professor Fred is patient teaching the moves and very knowledgeable.
This is an amazing place to train and have your kids train top notch professors very family oriented they welcome anyone to train which allows you to train with many different partners
My husband and sons have trained here for several years. The environment is very welcoming. This Brazilian Jiu Jitsu school fosters relationships and a community that is like a second family. The leaders are passionate about their art. I strongly recommend this school.
Great place to for kids and adults to learn self defense and discipline, family friendly!
Great place to learn and good environment.
I really enjoy Lobo Jiu Jitsu, it feels like a family there. I especially love the 6:40am morning classes, it is such a great way to start the day. Not only do you learn jiu jitsu, it is a great workout as well! I have made some of my best friends here. Professor Fred is amazing, I have learned so much from him. One of the things I really like, is if another female or my fiancé isn’t able to go to class, I feel comfortable being partners with anyone and am still able to go to class. That is really hard to find.
Learned so much about myself while training with Fred and his staff. Jiu-jitsu was the main reason I got my promotion 6 months ago, it really changed my perception on myself and life. If you are looking for a purpose that will make you a better person physically and mentally this is it no doubt. It makes you comfortable in uncomfortable situations. No politics, no garbage talk, no drama, just training.
My son has been interested in Jiu Jitsu since he was 3 years old. As soon as we stepped foot inside this gym he felt right at home. He was welcomed by the Professor and coaches as well as everyone training here with open arms. A year later I was welcomed the same way. Now we are both here and we are enjoying the journey. Everyone has been welcoming and extremely helpful. The higher belts are so willing to teach and pass on their knowledge.
Lobo Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu school is undoubtedly one of the most exceptional martial arts schools I have ever had the privilege of being a part of. The instructors are not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also deeply passionate about instilling the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in their students. The facilities are always clean and well-maintained, providing a safe and welcoming space for students of all levels. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed, striking the perfect balance between technique, sparring, and physical conditioning. Professor Fred, with over two decades of experience, is a master at his craft and always makes himself available for any questions or concerns. What truly sets this school apart is the sense of family and camaraderie among its members. I have trained with a diverse group of individuals, all united in their dedication to improve and support one another. It's a community like no other, and I am proud to call my fellow students friends. I highly recommend Lobo Jiu-Jitsu for anyone looking to get in shape, learn self-defense, and become part of an incredible community.
Great price, great Professor I highly recommend this place.
The best place to train jiu jitsu in the area, for sure. Top quality jiu jiutsu, great instructors, clean facility and great environment.
Great gym to learn some great BJJ! awesome community, and welcoming environment. Come and try it out! You won’t be disappointed. Oss 🤙
As a women in jiu jitsu, I would NEVER recommend this gym. Ask around about Fred and see what feedback you get. Fred has a history of inappropriate behavior with women and is a stain to the community. I STRONGLY recommend anyone interested in this gym to ask around and do their research prior to signing up, especially if you are a women!
