ABOUT US
Suncoast Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy was formed by a team and brotherhood of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belts, who have been training together for over 10 years. At our academy, we emphasize the technical fundamentals taught to us by 6th Degree Black belt Professor Eduardo De Lima, competition training, and the importance of sparring. Our academy shines through the diversity of expertise possessed by each of our high level instructors. We provide a safe and clean family atmosphere where our students can learn to push through adversity on and off the mats.
