From the reviews

This is not a friend or family review, but after a few months of my son in their class it feels like we might be! From day one these guys and all category students are encouraging, patient (specially patient) supportive, professional, respectful and thrive to teach the same. All positive progress.

★★★★★ — Haydee, Nov 2017

I can confidently say that it is a remarkable jiu jitsu academy. The training I received there exceeded all my expectations and left me thoroughly impressed. The instructors are truly exceptional. Their deep knowledge, expertise, and dedication to the art of jiu jitsu are evident in every class.

★★★★★ — Andre, May 2023

This place is the best. Coach Joao and Fred are super helpful in teaching the various techniques and create a great learning environment. It is a real community/family feel in the gym and everyone is always very welcoming. No better place to train and very happy I started my BJJ journey off here.

★★★★★ — Zach, Jun 2024

The Moncaio Brothers are true Masters of their vocation. There is the sanctity of inclusiveness and sense of community that is offered here. Stellar instruction is given and high quality, technical partners to drill with.

New to kickboxing? Start at Moncaio Brothers | Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Kickboxing Gym

Moncaio Brothers | Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Kickboxing Gym comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first kickboxing class at Moncaio Brothers | Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu & Kickboxing Gym

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.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
