From the reviews
Our family has had an incredible experience with Valente Brothers. Both of my children have been members, and the impact it has had on them has been nothing short of amazing. From day one, the instructors have created a welcoming, disciplined, and respectful environment that truly feels like a community.
I’ve been training here for maybe eight years now. Whether you’re looking for a place for your child to train or you’re interested in training yourself, regardless of your age, experience or skill level you will find a home here among a great community of people.
If you want to learn Self Defense, great take downs and get good at over all grappling Valelente Brothers Coral Gables has the ability to help you in any of these journeys and the best part your family can come along with you.
Instructors are great with the kids. My son and daughter have learned a lot in the past few months that they has been enrolled. I also started adult classes and love it I highly recommend this jiujitsu school.
Your first BJJ class at Valente Brothers Jiu-Jitsu Coral Gables
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.
