    What an awesome place to train at. I dropped in at Velez BJJ and was blown away by how professional, welcoming, and nice everyone was. Students and coaches were all extremely friendly and treated me like I was family. I HIGHLY recommend this gym to anyone wanting to get in shape, learn self-defense, or compete. There’s something for everyone here. Thank you for the hospitality coach Velez. Looking forward to training again in the future. -Emilio

    I have been training at Velez Jiujitsu for two years. In those two years, I have grown fond of the people who train at Velez and have considered Javier Velez a friend. The school is very technical in its teaching but very relaxed in its atmosphere. Javier has a gift for teaching and a knack of getting people to bond over their love of Jiujitsu. Kids classes, afternoon classes, evening classes, and weekend classes are available. Extremely friendly to first responders and military. Visiting students from other schools are always treated like family when they visit. Javier has a great reputation within the Jiujitsu community. Meet him ONE time, come to ONE class...you will see why instantly!!

    I had a wonderful and memorable time training for Jiu Jitsu at Professor Javier's Velez Jiu Jitsu academy. Professor conducts the training session in a fun and friendly way. He simplifies the complicated JJ moves, gives many check points for the techniques and explains the flow very well. We practice the techniques effectively with fellow training mates for certain duration of time. Professor closely watches us and corrects us. Higher belts training mates are always willing to teach white belt trainees, help us improve our techniques. During the roll, they give us space to work on moves and some times they let us submit them. Much respect. This academy emphasizes a lot on rolling after training session. I find it as an effective way to better our techniques and also to improve our confidence level. Professor and his team ensure safe space for rolling. Training mates too intend to help us improve. Special mention to Coach Drew, Coach Rick, Coach Carlos. They provide their valuable time for helping us fine tune our techniques, they are willing to spend time for a quick one and one discussion too. Coach Carlos's enthusiasm and passion are very contagious. He is always friendly and encouraging. Enjoyed training with him. I thank Professor Javier again for such a wonderful academy and training mates. Bettered my technique and confidence level. Highly recommend this academy.

    This review is for my son's Jiu-Jitsu class. Coach Velez is exceptionally knowledgeable, not only imparting valuable techniques but also emphasizing the importance of respect and character development. My son, along with the other students, thoroughly enjoys the class and greatly benefits from the coaches' guidance. The coaches are genuinely committed to the children's growth and success. Overall, it’s an outstanding program for anyone interested in Jiu-Jitsu.

    I am so glad my son gets to be part of this team. Mr Velez is very dedicated and great with kids. This is the perfect place for kids to learn discipline and self defense.
