Renzo Gracie Pearland

"Professor Joe, Coach Ben and Andrea run a tight ship! The instruction is amazing, the mats are clean and the people are friendly. If you’ve ever had the slightest desire to start jiu jitsu, wait no longer and stop by! It’ll be life-changing."

"If your considering a martial art for your children this is the place! The instructors are absolutely amazing and really connect with the kids. Sensei Joe, Ben and Andrea are always so welcoming and encouraging. The instructors are all active competitors and the classes are well sized so that the kids get plenty of one on one instruction during every class. Would recommend 100%!!!"

"Awesome! The team behind Renzo Gracie Pearland is just awesome!! Professor Joe, coach Ben and team manager Andrea are very dedicated to all their students, from the little ones and the older kids to all the adults! We as a family really enjoy the environment and what we are learning. Professor Joes back ground speaks for itself with the high caliber trainings of ufc fighters and military and Coach Ben with his grappling submissions and Muay Thai back ground makes this a designation academy that has students from all over the Houston area traveling just to Pearland to train under this team! That should speak volume to what you can learn here! Oh can’t forget about Andrea team manager, she is a blue belt training as well and her character and attitude I think is the heart of the environment at Renzo Gracie Pearland! With all that the environment is very family friendly and humble. You can be an out of shape dude in your 40s….. ahem…. No judgement (for the ones reading that don’t know, that’s me). Everyone here including other students parents all help and want everyone to grow! With flexible classes throughout the week, you should differently check it out!"

"I cannot speak highly enough about this exceptional martial arts academy, where UFC Coach: Professor Joe and Coach Ben lead the way with their incredible expertise. From the moment we walked through the doors, it was evident that we had found something truly special. The heart of this academy is undoubtedly its world-class instructors, Professor Joe and Coach Ben, both of whom bring unparalleled knowledge and dedication to every class. Under the capable management of Ms. Andrea, the general manager, the facility is not only clean and well-maintained but also incredibly well-organized. Schedules are thoughtfully crafted to cater to a wide range of students, ensuring that everyone can find a convenient class time that suits their needs. One of the academy's standout qualities is its extensive network of black belt instructors, led by Professor Brian Marvin. They don't just bring years of experience; they also foster a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. There are no egos here; it's a place where every student, regardless of their level, feels valued and respected. The diversity in class offerings is another feature that makes this academy shine. Whether you prefer the traditional gi or the dynamic no-gi curriculum, there's something for everyone. This variety not only keeps things interesting but also allows students to explore different aspects of martial arts. Perhaps the most remarkable transformation we've witnessed here is in our child. In just six months, Sofia has blossomed from a shy, reserved individual into a confident and empowered young person. The supportive and encouraging environment, led by Professor Joe, Coach Ben, and overseen by Ms. Andrea, has played a pivotal role in this incredible change, and we couldn't be more grateful. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend this martial arts academy, guided by the expertise of Professor Joe, Coach Ben, Coach Jenn and expertly managed by Ms. Andrea, to anyone seeking not only a top-notch training experience but also a warm and welcoming community. It's more than just a place to learn martial arts; it's a place where individuals of all ages and backgrounds come together to grow, learn, and thrive. Our journey here has been nothing short of extraordinary, and we look forward to many more years of growth and success."
