From the reviews
Renzo Gracie Doral made me fall in love with Jiu Jitsu. From my first class, the welcoming atmosphere and excellent coaching hooked me completely. What started as a simple tryout became a true passion that has transformed my life — building discipline, confidence, and resilience.
I’ve had an amazing experience training at this jiu jitsu school. The coaches are knowledgeable and patient, the atmosphere is welcoming, and everyone is supportive no matter your level. I’ve improved a lot in both skill and confidence since joining. Definitely recommend it to anyone interested in learning jiu jitsu!
Started training with Professor Paulo since 2015 as a white belt and now black. He is one of the best out there. He is a multiple World Champion with a lot of wisdom and understanding of the sport and self-defense. A Brazilian legend, I highly recommend!
We have been here for a year already and my son loves it. The coaches are wonderful and the kids have so much fun.
Your first BJJ class at Renzo Gracie Academy Doral Brazilian Jiu - Jitsu
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
