From the reviews
Awesome place to learn jiu jitsu with a wide range of people to train with. The head coach Mauricio is a world class fighter and 4th degree black belt under the legendary Master Ryan Gracie. I've been training with Mauricio for more than 11 years and this is one of the best places to learn Jiu Jitsu in the country.
Mauricio has a very welcoming facility and he and his students are very patient with new students. His course structure is very well organized, with a technique introduced each week. He maintains high standards for promotion so students earn their belts.
My 12 yr old child loves this … she used to do taekwondo long back and is a ballet student Jiu jitsu has motivated her to get stronger Mauricio is excellent coach that not only teaches jii jitsu but also builds strong character in children Would highly recommend this dojo
"Mauricio Alonso's BJJ school is the best place to learn self-defense skills. The instructors emphasize technique and strategy, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to improve their martial arts skills."
Your first kickboxing class at Alonso academy
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing 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 the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics 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.
