Nino Schembri Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

"I’ve been coming here since 2010 when Nino was originally in Manhattan Beach. And I’ve found that this academy has the best BJJ in the South Bay. They have an awesome kids Brazilian jiu jitsu program as well. I love this place and I’m glad I came back to it; Nino will always welcome you as family."

"I had the pleasure of training with professor Nino this week. It was an awesome experience, getting to learn from one of the best bjj practitioners ever. The facility was neat and clean, the training partners were very friendly and welcoming and overall a very positive training atmosphere. I recommend everyone living or visiting South Bay, California to drop in for Professor Nino’s bjj or Yoga class."

"Nino is a world class instructor that loves sharing his passion and knowledge with his students. It is a family-friendly atmosphere and I highly recommend Nino Schembri BJJ! If you are serious about improving your game, getting in shape, and making great friends, this is the place for you!"

"I've been going to Nino's for about 7 months now. This place is incredible. From my first day, everyone was very nice and welcoming. After a couple weeks I felt like I was part of the family. There's a real sense of family and team at this gym. Everyone really wants each other to succeed. Great instructors, great staff, great students. If you want to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu from one of the best ever, in a friendly, relaxed environment, this place is for you."

"Training with Nino Schembri at his academy has been one of the best experiences of my life. Having trained here for several years now, I have seen the academy grow from only a handful of students to a large group of very experienced jiu jitsu practitioners. The classes are superb and the techniques are simple, yet very effective. Nino is a very laid back, which keeps a nice relaxed, family atmosphere in the gym, and he lets you progress at your own pace. The other students in the class are very respectful and I have made many close friends over the years. Also, thanks to Ben Kim and all the other high-ranking students who have helped my jiu jitsu improve over the years."
