From the reviews
I enjoy giving classes to both kids and adults of all ages. Greatest sport for anyone to take.
I trained at Master Cesario de Souza’s CBJJ from white belt all the way to black belt, starting my Jiu-Jitsu journey at the age of 40. Master Cesario was truly outstanding — always patient, supportive, and deeply attentive to both my progress and my safety, especially when training with students 20 years younger than…
My kids and I have been training @ CBJJ for >2.5 years and it is one of the best decisions we have ever made as a family. It really is a great environment – everyone is respectful and supportive of each other. Cheerful family-friendly vibe always.
I love this Gym! Very friendly people. Extremely family oriented. I am very pleased with every class my son has attended. He is trained by two black belt Teachers.
New to muay thai? Start at CBJJ Team
CBJJ Team comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first muay thai class at CBJJ Team
Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
