Novaes Jiu Jitsu Academy - Lawndale

I studied under Professor Novaes when he was at Fight Forum in La Crescenta. He is hands down the best instructor I have ever had, and I have had quite a few. His attention to detail when demonstrating techniques is truly incredible. Private lessons with him are even better. I am disappointed that I am now far away from the academy. I would love for him to create a video series similar to the Gracie academy, as it would be a fantastic alternative.

Great coach and great people on the mat. My short time in Cali was filled with fun and rolls, can’t wait to go back!Thanks coach Alex

What a fun family friendly place!! It encourage fitness, fun and it's becomes a family.. we help each other learn more and support each as we get promoted!

Yes ! Place to learn about respect , self defense and integrity . I do recommend this place . Bullying stops there

I've been training with Coach Novaes for 5 years and have enjoyed every moment, in his gym, and around the wonderful culture he has created for students and their families. Coach Alex has lead me to multiple championship titles and a world championship Gold Medal. The atmosphere of each class is energetic and positive with multiple levels of learning and progression for all. . I highly recommend beginning, or continuing, your Brazilian Jiu Jitsu journey with Novaes Jiu Jitsu Academy.
