Reviews
Just started taking classes – and enjoying it thoroughly! Neiman is a fantastic instructor – he makes sure all students, at all levels, understand the fundamental concepts and time to practice the techniques. Would highly recommend dropping by and checking out what is going on, and seeing if his teaching style works for you.
Right now the classes are split with roughly in half with advanced and beginner students – and advanced material is demonstrated and taught for people with experience.
Give it a shot! It’s also the closest brazilian jiu jitsu gym to UCI!
Great place and Great people, With an awesome ambience.
Full of World class knowledge and family feel, I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Neiman is one of the kindest people I know and it shows when he teaches. He’s passionate but more importantly he’s patient. Beginner or competitor it doesn’t matter he’s going to help you develop your skills.
Great atmosphere and world-class training. The instructors are not only highly skilled but also patient and supportive. This academy truly feels like a family and motivates you to grow every class
