Writing this review coming up on my 6 month mark for reference. I have had a great experience so far in my time at the academy. When I started everyone was very welcoming and willing to help me during class. For those of you nervous to start your BJJ journey, rest assured that you will not be thrown to the wolves here. Picking a BJJ gym is difficult for someone with no knowledge of the sport. Fortunately this academy has a lot of the things that you may not pick up on when you are looking around at different gyms. For starters there is a wide variety of training partners. Big, small, young, old etc. Having a diverse pool of training partners is very important to ones progress. The other area where this is important is belt level. There are a wide variety of belt levels that will help you test your progress. It has been a wonderful experience getting to roll with black belts as a new white belt just to see how much there is to learn. There are also additional classes you can attend should you want to compete and push yourself. Another aspect that is important is cleanliness of the gym. This is taken very seriously and it is very much appreciated. BJJ can get gross and sweaty and you want to have clean mats to be able to roll on. The last thing I will mention is that there is a great balance of men and women at the gym. A sign of a good academy is a strong female presence and this academy has that.

Very friendly environment, especially someone from out of town. Thank you for a amazing session and pushing me to the limit. I will be back soon!!

Love this place, welcoming people who make you feel apart of the family. I wouldn’t want to train anywhere else.

Best gym Ive ever trained in my life and great training partners

Professional, Quality and Clean Dojo. This gym has a true family feel. It is definitely the type of place where hard work and commitment are well rewarded. Not only did I feel that the quality of instruction was top tier I also felt that the quality of training partners was very high. Senpai Oscar and Claudia truly do embody the values of dedication, passion, discipline, and high character. I hope to continue to train there again when I am in the West Palm area.

World class, top of the line Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. The training methods and training partners allow you to become a world champion, or learn at your own pace and be as good as you want. The lessons and training on the mat make me a better person and more confident in every area of my life outside of the gym. Professor Oscar and Claudia Cardona treat each student like family. Great for all ages and skill levels. Im glad I joined.

The Cardona’s are amazing people that really do care about their pupils and believe in what they do. It has a family environment vibe while staying dedicated to the art form.

Great place for everyone to learn, nice staff and clean facility. Im very happy to have my daughter training there 🙂

Just started here this week. Great people, clean facility, everyone is super helpful. What more could you want in a BJJ gym?

Amazing place to train.. everyone treat each other like family.

Unfortunately for my daughter and I didnt work, the place and the professors are very good.But I dont think that its fair that after 1 class for my daughter a 2 of mine they wont refund any of my $200 deposit, on top of that they hand me a Kimono for another $100 that I never used, that now I have to wait for them to sell that in order to give me my money back. Well if you see this review you can keep my Kimono and my money.Thank you.

The very BEST BJJ gym in all of Florida. Professor Claudia and Oscar are exceptional human beings . They treat all of their clients as if they are family . I’ve trained at other BJJ gyms and none compares by any means or measure . They are highly proficient, organized, and structured. Their mannerisms are bar none, their focus is on your development, and your development only . They’re some of the most empathetic, compassionate, and kind hearted people that I’ve ever met, or that I’m ever likely to meet . I’m grateful to have made their acquaintance, and even more so to be a part of their family . If you’re looking for a highly competitive, challenging, and upbeat BJJ gym to train ..THIS IS IT !!! My expectations have always been extremely high, and by far they have succeeded my expectations . I could never ever dream, envision, or imagine training anywhere else . The most profound sense of camaraderie there is . OSSS 🥋

Such a wonderful new experience for both of my teenage daughters! They are learning self defense and gaining confidence in themselves. The pricing and coaching is unbeatable so we feel grateful to have the opportunity to be a part of this gym.

I have been training for about 4 months here and its the best decision I have made in years. The gym is not just a gym. Professor runs the school like a family. Everyone is friendly and respectful and when I train I can really tell there is serious knowledge to absorb here. The best part is that they have classes available almost every single day of the week!-Quaid

Amazing group of people and family vibes! Perfect place for you to learn and grow !!

Was in town on business and asked to drop in on a Friday AM class. Very welcoming group. Got in some great drilling time and even squeezed in a quick roll. Wish I was in town longer. Really a great gym with good, nice people.

Great academy, always looking forward to train since the day I started.We have had our daughters training here before I decided to finally join myself, best decision I made in a while. Very family orientated and respectful professors and coaches. Everyone here helps you improve each day. If you are looking for well balanced academy and to better yourself this is the best place to be.I fully recommend Cardonas BJJ!!

Best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu school in Palm beach, this is a family own businessProfessor Cardona is very knowledgeable and treat all his students as a big family, if you are looking to learn good Brazilian Jiu Jitsu this is the place to go !

Excellent school. Students are well rounded, well trained and welcoming. This is a great school to train at!

This is the best jiujitsu academy around. Not only that, they treat everyone like family. It is a big family. Signing up my kids here, and even myself, has been the best decision ever. As a mother I love the dedication they put into teaching the kids self-defense, respect, patience, commitment, and many other necessary skills to be successful in life. My kids love going there, and the satisfaction I feel seeing the Cardonas, and the rest of the coaches putting so much effort into these kids is unexplainable. Even the older kids help the younger kids with so much compassion and dedication. That tells you how well they prepare these children for the future. As a student myself, I love what I learn everyday. Bjj has become a passion because of them and I love how much encouragement they give to their students. I am forever thankful!

This is an awesome jiujitsu school. My two boys, 6 and almost 3 years old, go here. I have seen such a great improvement in their everyday lives because of the skills they teach them. The coaches are patient, and Im surprised they can actually get my little one to participate. The family environment is great, and my sons love the cardonas and all the coaches. They never want to miss jiujitsu. Thank you for everything you do!

Very family orientated and clean, best pricing in town! Been a member for over a year and I can’t see myself at another gym. Cardonas BJJ has always treated me like family! 🤙🏽

Great atmosphere to train, the professors are great. If you love to challenge yourself this is the place to do it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Champions on and off the mats!Great academy for beginners and kids.Women’s only class available.Classes taught by a certified BJJ Black BeltAlso very successful competition team

I found out about Cardonas bjj though my brother who is in it and as well as my nieces, it’s a great environment to be in, as well very respectful and they are very welcoming. I can see my self learning a lot here as time passes.

I feel so sorry for my dad,me and my dad wanted to try out something new so we tried this place and i didnt really like it so he went back to go get a refund but insted of returning his mony he ended up wasting around 300$that is just unfair.

Best place to training ! If you want to be a monster train with lions 🦁

I love this place. Highly professional, family-friendly and safe for kids

Ive been training at Cardonas BJJ for some time now .. I can actually see how much Ive learned and improved my BJJ.. Great environment.. Great training partners .. Clean and Top level mats .. It reallly does feel like a family of warriors. thanks to professor Oscar and Claudia for passing on the knowledge and love for the sport...

Cardonasbjj the best team and best academy of palm beach county, the performance and training of each athlete is the main base in this academy, followed by rules and disciplines that meet 100% for all equally without distinction, my daughter and I personally are totally grateful and happy to be part of this family and team .. OSS !

The environment at Cardonas BJJ is mass, is top, é bom demais, its the number 1, the professor Oscar is very good, technical, good at explaining BJJ moves, you will feel like family. Everyone is welcome, whether you are training to be a champion or training for recreational purposes. Its the best place for kids learning discipline, respect, and values and principles.I recommend 100%

Best place to train BJJ. Very well prepared instructors

One star to their customer service. My daughter went once to a class and my husband went twice and they didn’t like it (martial arts is not for everyone). My husband asked for a refund but the owners said that it was paid for and they refused to refund him. I think this is unfair and frustrating to lose money that way. If you decide to go to this place ask for a tryout class instead of paying ahead for something that you might not like.

Excellent jiu jitsu for all levels.

As the professor I assure that all my students work to achieve their full potential. Here we are not just a team but a family.

Really Fun! Fell in love with the sport instantly!

Great school family oriented amazing pricing!!!

Great academy, healthy environment!

Come here to roll bjj all day.
