Unity Brazilian Jiu Jitsu school in New York City is run by world-class competitors still actively & successfully competing at the highest level.
Unity Jiu Jitsu School is a truly exceptional place to train. From the moment you step onto the mats, you're welcomed into a community that radiates positivity and dedication to the art of Jiu Jitsu. The people here are incredible—fellow students are supportive, enthusiastic, and committed to helping each other grow, regardless of skill level. The coaches at Unity are nothing short of spectacular. Their deep knowledge, innovative teaching methods, and personal attention to every student make training sessions both challenging and rewarding. They have an amazing ability to break down techniques into precise, understandable steps, ensuring that everyone from beginners to advanced practitioners can grasp and apply them.
Posted 1 year agoFrom the day 1 beginner to the professional athlete, Unity is one of the most inclusive and inviting atmospheres you'll ever find at an NYC gym. Owner, Murilo Santana, and all of the teaching staff have a wealth of knowledge and years of experience to share with you. I would highly recommend dropping in for a free trial class. Unity is open 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Truly an embodiment of their motto: "hard work by good people".
Posted 4 years agoThis is the best Jiu Jitsu academy in the world! Very high technical level and family-like community. Excellent and accessible location, with qualified professionals prepared to welcome you in the best way possible.
Posted 1 year agoUpdate: still the best place in NYC, possibly even *the world,* to learn high level jiujitsu and get the best training. No matter what your goals are - to get into shape, learn new skills, or to become a world champion, the instructors here will help you achieve those goals. Every one of the instructors here are high level and decorated in the sport. Why would you choose to go elsewhere when you can learn from some of the best? Unity is a great community of hardworking good people who love jiujitsu. It's one of the best bjj schools in NYC and under the tutelage of Murilo Santana and his instructors, your bjj will definitely excel. I came here as a blue belt that was actually just a white belt in skill in 2017 and under Junny and Murilo, I have become a much better practitioner. Although it's really difficult sometimes, I appreciate the intensity and the high standards that students here are held to.
Posted 2 years agoWhere to begin? I am a white belt beginner from out of town, was recommended this place to train. It feels like a family, the regulars at Unity are kind and so patient with newcomers like myself. They are serious about training, inspiring and you can feel such a good energy during class. Murilo is such a dedicated, PRESENT teacher he is the true definition of a leader. If there is one thing I will miss in New York it is Unity! Peace and love and Oss!
