Gomez Jiu-Jitsu

A truly exceptional place to train. Very knowledgeable and intelligent instructor with a track record that is difficult to match. The students all help and support each other, and all ages, genders and skill levels are made to feel welcome. I’m hooked, and would definitely recommend it to others.

Fantastic dojo and instructor. You get a lot of attention to detail. Go check it out

About a month ago I ran across the street to the little convenient store in front of my house. I believe it was to pick up snacks because I was about to watch a movie or play Xbox. After picking up my snacks I noticed a little business card/​ad for BJJ and Fitness by Carlos Lopez. I always wanted to get back into shape. I was a former Marine for 6 years, and I want to eventually be a police officer soon. But to be honest for the last 3 – 4 year I have really let me self go. Eating like there is no tomorrow and being the laziest couch potato! It was weird how I noticed his business card and actually saved the number in my phone. Because who really wants to work out when they can relax? The next day I called Carlos, he was more than professional and courteous on the phone. We met up at my gym and we just talked. I let him know, what I was looking for. I was straight forward and honest. «I need to get in shape! I need to lose my gut!!» Carlos offers a pretty awesome package deal for training sessions. Very affordable. You can choose pretty much whenever you want to work out and how long you can spread on each session. Once a week? Twice a week? Once a month? We set up a time for him to come to MY gym and start training. Our first training session was a «test» session to see what my limits were. Being a former Marine (but out of shape) I was thinking the work outs were not going to be too bad. And during the work out even though I felt like I was about to pass out, I just thought it was probably because I haven’t really worked out in such a long time. That night… I payed the price. I couldn’t walk, I couldn’t sit… that’s when I realized I needed this. I couldn’t believe how out of shape I was. So I set it up with Carlos. I can not do this once a month or week. I needed to change my habits and body. I decided lets meet 3 times a week. M W F. After couple of days of being beyond sore. It was time for our 2^nd session. He quickly realized what I could handle and can not handle and he worked from there. His instructions on training is pretty awesome. Motivates you constantly during the work out. At first I was very discouraged, but he kept on assuring me that your body will change you will get in shape. I usually work out with Carlos between 1 – 4 for about an hr. Prior to meeting Carlos I would use those 3 hrs to take a nap, eat, watch tv and play some Xbox. After the first several training sessions I just knew I did the right thing in calling him. And then there is the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, never in my life did I imagine I would take a mixed martial art. Let alone would I ever take BJJ. But if you think about it, with me wanting to be a police officer it makes sense. So for the first 30 mins it was fitness and the last 30 mins it was BJJ. BJJ is pretty awesome. Learning how to defend your self and take someone down when you really need to is very essential for anyone. Doesn’t matter if your a kid or an older adult. After our 3^rd or 4^th session I realized an hr is not enough for me. Time seemed like it was going too fast. So recently we bumped it up to an hr and half. Every M W F, I get pretty excited on what I am going to learn and what I will be exercising that day. Yesterday, we did a hr and half session and I am beyond sore right now. But I feel so good. I feel energetic. I WILL recommend this training to anyone. Actually my brother is about to sign up. I plan to stick with Carlos for a long time! I will post before and after pics when I feel like my body is where I want it to be. To anyone that is looking for a personal trainer/​BJJ instructor that works for you and with you. Call CARLOS! Best decision I have made in a while! Can’t wait until WEDNESDAY!

I am very satisfied with my personal fitness sessions. I learned the basics of Jiu Jitsu techniques in a detailed manner. I found the instruction easy to understand and grasp. I would recommend Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Fitness to my friends. The rates are reasonable and instruction is well worth it!
