I absolutely adore this place! I discovered it during the pandemic when clubs were closed and other venues had limited capacity. Friday nights here became my cherished escape, and I fell in love with it! Despite the challenging times, this place transformed the worst of times into the best of times for me. It not only preserved my sanity but also gave me a new lease on life.
The staff members are not only friendly but also highly knowledgeable. In my heart what sets this place apart is its LGBTQ friendliness. It became evident when I participated in the AIDSLife Cycle and received support from fellow students and coaches, helping me raise funds. It's so much more than just a regular gym. <3 LFG! LFG! LFG! <3
my happy place. i've grown so much in both muay thai and bjj here.
Renzo Gracie LA, is incredible. I have gone to other gyms, but nothing compares to Renzos! Everyone is so welcoming and they don’t make you feel uncomfortable. I love training here. Professor Jaime is an incredible teacher. He’s detailed and patient and always very helpful. You can see that he really truly wants us to learn and be the best we could be. He’s bold in his teaching But that’s what we need to truly learn. I’m very grateful That I found this place. Oss

This is one of the best BJJ schools in the world. The quality of the instruction here is absolutely tops. The atmosphere is welcoming and the people are wonderful and helpful. The facilities are clean and accessible. I train here whenever I am in LA and always learn something and have a great time. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Special thanks to Coach Nick for the detailed instruction and even working with me after class and the terrific partners.
Fantastic place to learn and train BJJ. I dropped in on a visit to LA from Atlanta this week, and was greeted with peak hospitality. Coach Luis was passionate, knowledgeable, detailed and fun. There was a healthy variety of belt levels training that day, and all were extremely courteous and well mannered. Showers and lockers included at the facility. Gym is slightly hard to find as the lobby doesn't have marking on where it is, but it's a short walk from lobby. If I'm in LA again, I'll be back!
I highly recommend this gym to everyone and anyone. I have been training Muay Thai here for the past 7 months and it been nothing but positive. Everyone is professional and kind. I look forward to class every day.
Great staff, great environment, supportive community.
Great facilities, welcoming environment and detailed instruction. Would recommend 5 Star Martial Arts to anyone in the LA area looking for a gym to learn BJJ.
