We have been going here for almost a year and my son has flourished. Professor Mario, the coaches and kids have quickly become like family. The new location is amazing! Very spacious, huge mat and most importantly very clean. We absolutely love it here.
Dropped in as a visiting student and enjoyed the class.
Great mix of drills, technique, and rolling. Welcoming team and strong professor with Brazilian roots.
Really like how professor actively coached during the rolling session and had a debrief after to go over common things he saw to help individuals and the class as a whole.
Strong gym and a great time.
Professor Mario is one of the most caring and upbeat people you will meet. He cares about the individual as much as the art. Children as young as old thru adults I've personally witnessed grow as people under his instruction.
Exercise experience all the way to professional have been through the doors in Valencia. You really become part of a family that is rare in most martial circles. From day one you are family. Me and my son have gone there and it is all that I have said.
Absolutely the best in Los Angeles County.
Lots of technical and high skilled grapplers train here, and they are always willing to help others their game. The gym is very family and friend oriented, plus Mario is such an amazing coach.
My sons and I are extremely happy with our experience at Gracie Valencia! Under Professor Mario Aiello we have learned a great deal in just a few months and we look forward to each and every lesson! The atmosphere is extremely friendly and welcoming. My youngest son stopped playing travel baseball to concentrate on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu! That says it all... It has been an outstanding family experience! I highly recommend it to everyone!
Phenomenal atmosphere at the school. Head instructor, Mario, has been teaching Brazilian jiu-jitsu for years and it shows in the quality of his students.
Everyone is so welcoming at the school that attending class is never in doubt; you'll want to go to every session of every day!
High praises!
This is an amazing place to learn and practice jiu-jitsu for the whole family.
I train here as well as my two kids. Mario is an excellent teacher and there are plenty of classes for adults with busy schedules. I love it!
I've been training here for a little over two months and have nothing but good things to say about it. Mario is awesome, incredibly friendly, and a great teacher. The other students are very welcoming and always willing to help us new guys. It's been a great experience so far and I don't see myself leaving anytime soon.
